Improvising

Its about time I stopped pre-planing things while "improvising in class"
It looks to me like it is safer to come up with something you already know of, like you are prepared, but this does not work.
I've noticed some people try to do this in class, but then the whole scene fail when something (either funny or stupid) happens and this person was not expecting that. It is the fear most of us have because we are afraid of change, of the unknown.
there have been times where i go blank and nothing fast come to my mind and I look really stupid but I guess it ends up being funny too. All of us are afraid of looking ridiculous if our joke fails, but that is the only way people learn, from failing and trying new things.
I have to say that we have some good improvisors in class, the ones that are quick with the jokes and very creative. These people also make the rest of us look good, because they understand the idea of working together, that is better to make a good share-scene than being the only one who looks good like a total asshole.
We will be doing some acting with kids at their school or in New York City, I am exciting because its challenging to get to work out of school, like we'll be already on the field. I hope all of us can make a good job!.. but it's whatever either one will be an awesome experience to learn from.
