Fourth Session: Endow yourself with dr. Rod

Call me weak, call me naive, call me everything you want but I am seeing dr. Rod and you can't make me stop! I see dr. Rod on a weekly basis and he inspires me. And something is telling me I am not the only one who is seeing dr. Rod. Rumor has is it that at least seven other people are under dr. Rod's control. You think that is shocking? I am telling you in a few months time, dr. Rod is inspiring a 200 people's audience. That's how things go with people like dr. Rod. You want to know how dr. Rod is doing this? Well, take last's week session with dr. Rod. The theme of the session was ENDOWMENT. I never knew all the things endowment can do to you.

For instance, during my video confession session, when I am telling a story about my character, I can endow my character with special traits, with hobbies, basically with everything that is important to get to know this character. A NAME is only just the beginning.
After this self-orientated phase of the session, I was exposed to a second person and we played a scene. dr. Rod told us not to be nervous but TO TAKE OUR TIME and to FOCUS ON EACH OTHER, not on a third person not present in the scene. Also there the endowment theme came in handy as it made me say specific things about the other person, sometimes even about the smallest DETAILS of that person or its environment.

It was then I realized, I was not the only person under the influence of dr. Rod anymore and I saw with my own eyes what he can do to people. There was a guy that started to SING SONGS out of the blue. And not to mention this girl who loved to PLAY WITH THE VIDEO CAMERA and undressed herself in front of it. Luckily, when things really got out of hand we were saved from further embarrassment by the COMMERCIAL break.

What a session it was! I can't hardly wait to experience the next one. However, I first need to do some HOMEWORK. Got to create a profile of a fictional character in the blog. And...don't forget to endow it.
