Big Apologies...and big changes.

Wow.

For anyone who reads this, I am so sorry. To say that it's been awhile is an understatement.

As the months, weeks, days draw closer to graduation, I become more and more busy. Hence the reason for the serious lack of updates.

Well, since I've last written I've had a lot of success! Let me just list off some positives...

-Got offered a summer job at Shawnee Summer Theatre of Greene County in Indiana. I'd be Luisa in The Fantasticks, and Woman #4 in Ring of Fire, as well as props mistress for the entire summer. And I'd get paid. (PS...I took it!)

-Auditioned for the Advanced Narrative Film "Paper Girl" and got cast as the title role. We shot it last month and I just viewed the footage this week - I'll try to post a link soon! It was a huge learning experience.

- Just finished filming a dogme short film project with one of the senior film majors and viewed the footage a few days ago. It was a really fun experience - I really enjoyed working in that style of film.

-Found a roommate for New York! One of my really great friends made the decision to move to NYC and we decided to make that trek together. I can't express how grateful and excited I am to have someone to go on this adventure with me.

-I finally had my senior recital. It turned out better than I could have ever expected and most importantly, I had a blast doing it. It reminded me how much I love performing...and really challenged me in ways I didn't expect. The footage to that will hopefully be posted soon.

...and lastly, graduation. 7 days. The end to my college career. In 7 days, I will be a college graduate. I'll be an adult. I can't possibly sum up the last three years of my life in a few sentences, so I will be writing another post closer to graduation. Don't expect it to be short and sweet.... :)
