My sister's high school friend, Andrea Schwartz, and her friend, Kim Kalish, are finished the pre-production on their web-series,
"Do As I Say..." Andrea started talking about it last year at Cinco de Mayo last year and it sounded really interesting. Three friends, one of them pregnant with their first child, looking back on their early twenties and deciding to do a video advice gift for the baby. I'm not sure if that is still the premise, but it's still about ladies in their twenties navigating their way through life, love, and professions in New York City.
One of my favorite parts about their website is their profile description
Kim and Andrea met in college where they majored in Theatre with a minor in Unemployment. In New York, they studied improv and sketch comedy with Upright Citizen's Brigade. They spend most of their time watching cat videos on Youtube.
They are lined up with a professional director, camera crew, lights, etc. so I can't wait to see the finished product. I am very, very excited for them. I know it's something on which Andrea has worked very hard and I love it when people see their labors rewarded. It makes me feel like there is some sort of balance to the universe, or a legitimate reason to try for difficult goals. Even if they don't fully succeed in this endeavor, for some unknown reason, the experience will be invaluable. If only to know that you tried to reach that. unreachable. star.....this is sounding familiar.
I just really want them to succeed. If I could take everything that is in my heart right now and turn it into
felix felicis, I would. I am so very proud of Andrea for everything that she is doing. She and my sister have been friends since they were in ninth grade. I loved the skits and dialogues they wrote for history, English, and theatre class. Between the two of them, I could laugh for hours. All for good reasons, I promise. It's not that I look at Andrea as like a little sister, but I do want her to succeed every bit as much as my own sister.
