[Link] | I'm waiting for my brother who went to go pick up Jessica and the baby and then we are all going to go meet up with the rest of the family at the mall...You know sometimes being in Florida, I feel like I'm missing out on so much back home...but I come home and I remember that everyone i still the same and in the winter especially there's not much else to do but go to the mall on the weekends...so not much has changed. LOL! I think I go to the mall more often when I come home than I do all year round in Florida! HAHAHAHA!
Anyway, I went to go see two plays yesterday and both were great. We got some major snow yesterday...and although I can't say that I really miss snow or the brutally cold winters, but I do have to admit that it was fun walking around in it for a little while yesterday. Fun...because I know I only have to deal with one storm and that's it for my winter! LOL! Jolie and Oscar actually really like the snow too! They were playing and rolling around in it this morning and it was cute to watch.
So anyway...the shows that I went to see. Both were really great with some amazing performances. I love going to the theater in winter and you sit in your seat and you can still feel the cold from outside. I think its a sensory memory from my childhood...it just strikes a chord. But anyway, the first play was called "In the Next Room: or the vibrator play" It was pretty funny! It's about this doctor in the late 1800s who invents this vibrator machine designed to cure "hysteria" in women by applying electrical vibrations and supposedly "releasing fluid from the womb." In essence...a vibrator...and he's basically just giving these sexually frustrated women a treatment of orgasms. The play isn't vulgar in any way which is what makes it kind of funny. How innocent this time period was compared to now. And how people were seemingly so out of touch with their sexuality is a recurring theme. I found it very interesting. I'm always interested to see the portrayal of women through the ages. I don't think that I would have liked to live back then at all. Women were so constrained and I love how their frustrations were so commonly labeled as "hysteria" It's funny to me. Anyway, I definitely recommend this play. Very funny and cute. And the ending was beautiful...but I don't want to give it away.
Then, I met up with my brother and Sofi and Chris and we ate dinner at BBQs in Times Square which was delicious and fattening! LOL! We walked around in the snow for a little while and then it was time for my second show, Ragtime, to start. I LOVE THIS SHOW! I've seen productions of it before and I know all the music from it etc, which made it even more fun I think because I was excited to see what came next and their rendition of it. I wasn't disappointed in ANY of it. The performances were all terrific and very moving. Plus, although visually very simple with a somewhat minimal set etc, the show was just stunning to me. I love when the focus is put on the people on stage on their story as opposed to too much glitz and glamour. I loved every minute of it. And, the curtain call, with standing ovation and all, made me cry. I don't know why...but I always cry during curtain calls. They are so emotional to me for some reason...and it's after everything is all already over. I love it though.
Anyway...that's that...going to the mall soon...should be fun! =)

[Link] | I've decided to sit down and write because what I really need right now is a good vent....I am so upset and angry and even sad right now that I just want to punch something or scream. It's really just a lot of things piled up at once....but I write...because that's the only way to get it all out...and with no one to really talk to or listen...this is the outlet.
Anyway, I am just so sick and tired of people lately. ALL PEOPLE!!! You know, I've been REALLY busy lately. TOO BUSY to be honest. I wake up in the morning at 5:45 am go to work for a 6 to 8 hour shift where I have to smile all day and cater to rude guests and germ infested children, breathing in toxic fumes and dealing with managers that treat you more like you are a machine than a human being. (There are good things about my job, don't get me wrong...aspects that I actually genuinely LOVE, but I'm mad right now, so not the time to think positive...I'm entitled to that! LOL!) After being on my feet all day, I'm tired. I come home, spend some time with the dogs, eat something, usually pass out, take a nap and am up again in an hour or two to take a shower and run to try to make it to rehearsal or performance on time. I'm at rehearsal til about 10:00pm or 10:30...come home. Walk pups...go to bed a lil after midnight and am up again to do it all over again the next day. Doesn't leave a whole lot of time for socialization, but STILL...I try...If a friend has a birthday, I try my best to be there...even if it's only for a shortened bit of time...When my family came to visit, I gave away shifts at work, skipped a nap, made an excuse to miss rehearsal so that I could spend an extra second with them...When my pals from NYU called and asked if they could stay at my place when they came to Disney, I said yes...and warned them that I was busy, but would do what I can...
Now, what gets me mad and upset are the guilt trips...When people don't seem to understand all the crap that I have going on...and they'll be like..."Oh yes...I know that you are busy..." but they still give you attitude, or a dirty look when you are running to get to where you need to go. I'm sick of the people who don't call you ALL YEAR ROUND or don't give a shit about how you are doing until they need something. I know I live in Orlando and that's far for pretty much everyone I know...but there are wonderful inventions out there known as cellphones and the internet and keeping in touch really isn't that difficult. There are so many relationships with friends and family alike that I know I would not hear a word from if I did not have the initiative to pick up the phone first...This doesn't go for everyone...but it goes for enough people to make me angry...especially for the people who I don't hear from for months on end...until it's like.."HEY!!! I'm coming to visit...hey can you get me into the parks!" You know what....from here on out...the answer to that is NO!!! Yes...I get those park tickets for free from the company, but you know what...that still doesn't take away the fact that I work my ass off FOR that company...so they come free...but you know what, they're not really...and when I have to go and get someone into the parks and I'm too busy to even go in and spend some time with you...what the hell do I get out of it? Especially when you're Joe Schmo who hasn't spoken to me in 3 years and low and behold here you are and expecting a freebie. And it's not just the parks....it's "Hey! I'm a retard who didn't even call you to wish you a happy birthday...but can I stay at your house when I'm on vacation?" The answer to that is NO!!! Just because you're on vacation doesn't mean that I am and I can't cater to the masses and take care of myself anymore. Taking care of myself is even a challenge in the passing months as my calendar becomes more and more packed....
I've literally been sick all Fall it seems...it began with catching a cold in Jekyll and Hyde rehearsals that turned into a worse cold that turned into Laryntigits...that now is a constant steady cough....GOOD TIMES!!! Oh...and by the way...Jekyll and Hyde....yeah its over now...THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO CAME TO SEE IT!!!.....NOT!!!!! Because you know what...NO ONE CAME TO SEE IT!!!! I think it is safe to say that not a single blood relative came to see Jekyll and Hyde....I know people have children and lives and it's expensive and it's far...or you don't have a ride...but you know what...the show may not have been Broadway caliber, but this was one of the most important things that I've done in a very long time...and while I have support of people who tell me "good for you for going after what you love"....that's not the same as seeing a face out there in that audience and knowing that they are there for YOU...SHIT!!!!...even Will, the ex-boyfriend who I want to punch in the nuts dick face came to see it even though I told him not to because I wasn't sure if I wanted to see him, but knowing that he took the time out to at least show some form of caring...it meant SOMETHING to me...That man who SO many people spoke so much crap about...That man who I ended up breaking up with and having my heart broken as a result not because I didn't have feelings for him, but because I knew that in the face of so much doubt and so many ill thoughts, that it would never work....HE CAME...and you know what...I can count on one hand the amount of other people that joined him at the show on my behalf over the two month run. It's not like you didn't have time people....this was the show that never ended with extensions and all. And you know what...it's my fault too...because when people tell me they can't or don't want to do something...I'm not big on the guilt trips. I say ok fine...I understand...and I leave it at that. And I'm also not the type that's really going to go asking and harping on an invitation...Everyone knew that it was going on...you don't need me breathing down your neck asking you to come. I probably wouldn't even be bringing it up like this if it weren't for the fact that I was tipped over the edge tonight when having a conversation with a family member on the phone talking about my plans for when I'm up in NYC for the holidays. Well...I've bought my theater tickets like I do everytime I go up there to visit. Out of the 7 days that I will be up in NY two of those days, I will be seeing shows...because that is my passion and has been since I was a kid and because I live far away and so now is my chance...and right away...I get the guilt trip..."Well, why'd you have to buy it for a Saturday...can't you do it another day....blah blah blah" No, I can't! If I could have done it another day I would have....PLUS!!!! You know what, having a little time for ME....I think I deserve that.
You know what...maybe I am doing too much... I try to pack in as much as I can and it really leaves little room for anything else...but you know what...it has to be this way...i HAVE to work because God knows I have more bills than I can handle right now...and I have to work hard and long hours and multiple jobs...and I HAVE to keep active in some form of theater life...even if I don't get paid for that part of it all...because you know what...right now...it's what keeps me sane and at peace and what makes me the most happy. I can be having the roughest of days and I walk into that space and we warm up singing "525,600 minutes" and all the stress of the day and all the worries and all the hurt...it all melts away....And I'm greeted by people that make me laugh and we work together to tell the story...and even if it means making my schedule all the more hectic...I need that right now. I have made a promise to myself that after RENT closes...by the way for those of you that don't know, I was cast in the ensemble of RENT at the same theater where I did Jekyll and Hyde...woohooo! But anyway...after RENT closes, I am going to be taking a break so that I can just work for a little while and save up some money and devote my nights to getting back to the GYM as much as I can...so that will help a little with my rush rush lifestyle. But, I do need to stay actively performing and actively musical...because it is where I feel at peace.
But anyway...I'm just tired of feeling like I am there for you when you tell me that you need something, I bend over backwards for people oftentimes putting myself and my needs towards the bottom of the list, but when I am in need...when I ask for a shoulder to cry on, or a little support, or just to spend a day to get away from it all...a lot of the time...I just find myself alone...And...I'm sorry, but it goes both ways. This has been a big rant, but tonight I just found myself at that breaking point...The peak of all the stresses lately exploding at once. And so...I write....
Sorry if I offended anyone or made anything uncomfortable or sound like I'm unreasonable...but this is my space.....this is how I feel...THE END.

[Link] | It's been a while since I've sat down to write here...I think about it all the time...how I used to have time to write almost everyday and now if I get on here once a month, I'm lucky! Things continue to be busy. Rehearsals for my show, which I still cannot say the name of, are in full swing and going well. Performances of Jekyll and Hyde were extended for two more weekends, which to be honest, I don't really have time for and I wish that didn't happen, but it is still awesome and fun. Making some great friendships and great connections for the future. Also got to perform my first Candlelight Processional at Epcot this past weekend. I don't know what it is about that show, but it always puts me in the Christmas spirit and makes me misty eyed when I hear all those voices up there and the big sound of the Disney orchestra. I love it. It makes my heart feel full and happy.
This past week and a half have been a whirlwind. Thanksgiving was awesome because we had a nice big crowd and it was good to be around family. My birthday this year was also a lot of fun, although maybe a little more quiet than the past few years. Still, I was happy to spend it with family and with people that I hadn't seen in a very long time. I'm not going to post pictures on here because it takes too long and I already put them on Facebook this time.
Anyway, now I'm sick, which I guess is why I actually have some time to come on here and write...because I didn't go to work today. I have laryngitis and a throat infection...went to the doctor yesterday and got some medicine and antibiotics so hopefully I will be better soon, but it sucks because I lost my voice. It's starting to come back, but I still haven't tried singing yet...and I have a performance on Friday. THAT should be interesting! Anyway, I'm trying just to take it easy.
I'm really happy with where I am right now. I'm working, I'm performing, I'm surrounded by people who care about me and support me and are genuine, and really there is nothing more that I can ask for at the moment. =) THANKFUL!

[Link] | My lord!!! It's been a busy Fall!!!
All filled with great things, but having a minute or two to catch up has been a commodity that I've had to do without since early October. I think it is safe to say that my life right now is living proof that if you put yourself out there, commit, and work hard, you can do anything that your mind and heart has the courage to dream up. Or something like that. I guess I am not at the top of where I would like to be in an ideal world, but who is. Right now, performances of Jekyll and Hyde are going very well. We are performing to sold out audiences, I am making new friends in the cast and crew, and this has been an extremely valuable learning experience. I just got cast in another show at the same theater. For contractual reasons I am not allowed to write the name of it here...but for a hint...it's something that you pay your landlord at the end of the month! I am so excited because although this isn't my favorite show anymore, it was at one time in my life. It's definitely a show that influenced me in a big way. I also got to audition for a series of operas and musicals that a local theater called Mad Cow is putting on in conjunction with the Orlando Philharmonic. I got called back for the Opera Chorus in Carmen so far...so that's quite a big nibble on my fishing line. This gig will pay a decent paycheck considering the short time committment and would look great on my resume...so here's hoping. I must definitely say that I am on a roll and happy about it.
Needless to say, my social life has gone down the drain and friends are whining about how I am never around...but really the time to play will come when it is appropriate. Now I have to focus on the gifts that are being sent my way. Today is my first full day off in a loooong time and I don't even want to leave the house. I am happy sitting on the couch and watching movies with my pups and I feel like I am entitled to that! LOL.

[Link] | You have to be thankful for the gifts that the universe gives you.
I am thankful for theater....and performance opportunities back in my life...because although I was hiding from it for a while, it truly was what I was missing in my life this past year.
I am thankful for a wonderful support system of family and friends that with them, I can accomplish anything in this life.
I am thankful for morning hours at work at Disney so that I have my nights to pursue what I want to do.
I am thankful for opportunity and the energy to go through each packed day right now and get everything done!

[Link] | Life these past few weeks has been CRAZY!!! Working a full time job with lessons on the side and rehearsals for 3 different performances at once is INSANE!!! Luckily one of the shows is over. I had my Beethoven performance with the Philharmonic last week and it went very very well. We got a standing ovation!!! So, I think they liked it! For me, it was just fun singing such a monster of a work as Ode to Joy. Beethoven was friggin nuts! But, really it was interesting to sing this piece. It made me feel like I was participating in a little bit of history.
I am very VERY excited about Jekyll and Hyde. We have A LOT of work to do in a very small amount of time, but I think that when it is done, it will be fun and creepy! My friend Teresa is rounding up a posse to come see it on opening which is Halloween...which gets me excited that I will have people in the audience.
Also...went to Mickey's Halloween Party last week...here are some pics...
Anyway...that is that keeping busy and having a good time with everything that is going on right now. =)

[Link] | I GOT INTO A SHOW!!!! WOOOOHOOOO!!!
The first show that I audition for after I decide to start putting myself out there again and I get cast...If that's not a sign, I don't know what else is!
So...I'm going to be in the ensemble of Jekyll and Hyde the musical at a theater here in town. WOOOHOOO! I am very happy and excited. And, although the show is really not as big of a deal as one may think...very small theater...not guna pay the bills...but it is something that makes me truly and 100% happy. I haven't felt this proud or excited about anything in a very long time. I cannot WAIT to get started!
Working on plans for my bday also...it turns out that the last performance of the show is ON my bday, so there goes going out that night, unless it comes to partying after the show....so I've decided that this is what I'm gonna do...1) make reservations for breakfast at Ohana at the Polynesian resort and then 2) book a massage at the Grand Floridian Spa for a little pampering for myself. I think I deserve it! =) So, hopefully it works out. hehe

[Link] | Ok...so quickly...here are some pics from my recent trip to nyc.
It's been a whirlwind of events since I got back. I am getting myself back into gear and in addition to work and teaching, I'm back to going to the gym and I enrolled in a couple dance classes for purposes of trying to maybe start auditioning for some shows again. I've also started rehearsals for my Orlando Opera Chorus performance of Beethoven's 9th Symphony as well as Candlelight Choir for the Christmas shows at Epcot...so there is A LOT going on right now. It is good though because I feel like I am getting back on track whereas this year, I've been a little lost. The biggest thing for me is to stay motivated with my goals in sight and not get distraced. I have to make it a point to stay focused. This means not allowing myself to get discouraged, but also making my life and the things that I need to do a priority. If I get friends and family visiting, that doesn't mean it's an excuse to skip dance class or the gym for example...I need to keep moving along...because it is so easy to get started, and then the littlest distraction as be stopping the momentum and then I'm back at square one again. I had a huge wakeup call when I was in NYC, and I know now for sure that I don't want to wake up when I am 40 years old and feel like I never gave my dreams a shot. Or like I gave it a half-assed attempt. I'm going at things full force now. And, even though I feel like at approaching the age of 26, I do have a lot of catch-up to play, but it's better to play that catch-up now then realize what I needed to do when it is too late.
Anyway, I have 2 additional auditions set up for this weekend for 2 musical shows in the area, which I am excited about, but don't necessarily know if they will fit into my schedule. We will see what happens. All in all I am really searching for and trying to maintain clarity right now. I hope hope HOPE that I stay at this high....I have so many highs and lows I'm like a mountain chain, and frankly I am SICK of it.
Anyway, here are the pics from NYC...
THE END

11:57 pm
[Link] | Today was quite possibly the best day that I've had all summer. =)
I went to see a matinee performance of HAIR the musical which was just wonderful. I really really loved the performance. It was moving, upbeat, and shocking. But, what got to me the most was during the curtain call, they invite people from the audience onstage to sing a reprise of "Let the Sun Shine" so I went up there...and let me tell you...looking at that full broadway house from that angle and having the lights on you and feeling the energy of the music...it almost brought me to tears as it hit me like a ton of bricks that I have let go of so many of my dreams. And now, I'm not really complaining because I know that its all been my choice and that I am still a work in progress...but let me tell you...those 5 minutes up on that stage were a big wake-up call to me...it was quite emotional...but also a lot of fun.
I was totally crushing on one of the lead actors too...I didnt want the show to end because I just wanted to stare at him all day long! HAHAHA!!!
After the show, I did a little shopping and then met up with Amanda, Jose, Rippy, and later Sofi for some dinner and laughs.
I miss the vibrancy of New York City and how alive it makes me feel. Everything today...down to the burly construction workers with thick Brooklyn accents hitting on me as I walk down the street made me feel like this is the place where I should be. And that comes now for a variety of different reasons. I am hoping that when I go back to Florida, I can use these feelings as a jumping board to get me started on fulfilling some of my goals again. These past few months I've just felt so lost and unsure of what I should be doing next, but these past few days have given me a little clarity. And...that doesn't mean that everything gets solved by moving back to New York...it's not so much the place...but the mindset...I have to keep myself pumped and make sure that I keep up this "I can do it" attitude so that I can actually get something done as opposed to feeling like I'm swimming in the deep end and there's no ladder to get out. I'm a strong swimmer...but damn...i'm tired of it...I'm ready for a change and for things to start to take flight.

12:26 pm
[Link] | Finally made it home!!!
We were off to a real rocky start at the beginning of this trip. We got a call just before we were supposed to leave to go to the airport saying that our flight was CANCELED due to weather!!!! BAH!!! It was crazy....we had the option to wait and fly out the next day, but we were scared that something else would happen and Megan's Sweet 16 was that day...so I went and picked up the pups from the boarding place and we all drove up. Which was fine except we got to the party with really no sleep. We had stopped to sleep the night before in a motel, but I was never able to really settle in and actually fall asleep. Still, had a lot of fun last night. It was nice to walk in and see everyone and be received with open arms and smiles. So, I am going to be here until Friday, at which point I will drive back down with my father and the dogs. It is quite crazy, but at least I get to be here for a few days. I'm excited just to spend time with everyone and maybe squeeze in a few shows. Today is Gabby's birthday, so we will have a little get together and other than that I do not know. Also, Tara, my best friend since Kindergarten is in town this week also, which is cool because she lives all the way out in Hawaii, so I'm excited about that...and seeing as many friends as I possibly can...
Also got to see Jessica's baby last night and he is soooooooooooooo cute!!! I want to eat him...he looks like his Papa....I will post pictures later. =)

[Link] | I GOT TO GO UP IN THE CASTLE AND SEE THE CINDERELLA SUITE!!!! WOWOWOWOWOW!!! It was totally random, but wow did that make me excited. I was literally jumping up and down giddy!!!

[Link] | Ummmm...so I usually only get one FULL day off a week...and of course everyday this week has been GORGEOUS!!!...I get to my day off...today...and it's been pouring rain ALL DAY long!!!! BOO!!!

[Link] | The silliest things really make me happy. I taught my usual music lessons today...I brought a new song to one of my girls, "A Quiet Thing" which is one of the songs that I sang at me senior recital mainly because I really like the lyrics. They have always spoken to me. I logged onto facebook a lil while ago and her "status update" was a quote from the song...(yes I am friends with some of my students on facebook). This just made me feel so happy because it was an indication of 1) That she liked the song....and 2) THat it spoke to her as well. ANd so as a result, I've made just a small impact today as I, in a way, struck a somewhat emotional chord in this person. Maybe I am changing the world a little bit...bit by bit...even though I feel sometimes like I am a useless part to the human race, every now and then...I think I get a message across or at least I hope so.
|
02:18 pm
[Link] | Of course everyday this week that I've been working has been GORGEOUS!!! And I finally get to my sort of day off and RAIN!!! It's stopping a lil now, so hopefully by the time that I am done teaching my last lesson of the day, I can actually go out and do something.
Things here have been pretty routine lately with work and stuff which is good and bad....I really love my job and all but I can't help the feeling sometimes that I want more. I wonder if I will ever be 100% satisfied with where I am in the world when it comes to career related stuff.
I don't really have a lot to say, but I thought I should write something here because it's been a while since I've done so. I'm excited for this weekend because I have Sunday off because I switched shifts with a girl at work, so I am going to go somewhere with Will. Haven't decided on what yet....but I haven't been seeing as much of him lately because he is studying for his CPA exams and I am working 6 days a week. It kind of sucks to be honest, but at the same time, it truly is opening my eyes to what my feelings for this guy are.

[Link] | SO...Michael Jackson died today and I was shocked and sad to hear the news. Sad because this was a truly talented man whom I grew up listening to...someone that I admired and enjoyed....and yet he truly spent his final years in social exile because of his eccentricity. It saddens me how people spent so much time talking so much smack about MJ while he was still with us, and now that he is gone everyone feels remorse....a little too late. It all seems pretty two-faced and it saddens me that he left this world probably feeling somewhat alone and ridiculed. Anyway, Michael Jackson is definitely one of those names and one of those people that will not be forgotten anytime soon and I hope that he is at peace and in a better place. =)

[Link] | Here are some pictures from Marcelo's first birthday...
I am glad that this baby boy had a blast at his party!
So...although it is nice to have visitors, I am glad to have my life back right now and to start to shape up what the next few months are going to be like now that I have a full time job. I called to enroll in all my medical benefits yesterday and it was such a simple thing, and yet kind of exhilirating. I am SO happy to have the option to go to the dentist or doctor now without worrying about going bankrupt! My schedule is going to be pretty busy though! I'm working five days a week at Disney and teaching lessons one full day, so my only consistent day off is going to be Tuesdays...or so it seems. This is fine by me for now...if I really need a day off, I can give away a shift or request time off. Now, things are pretty hectic at work because we are sort of under-staffed, but hopefully that won't last for long. Anyway, I am using this sort of "new start" and new schedule as a way of re-vamping some of the things that make up my life right now. One of those things being...I feel a lot lately that I spend too much time and effort in trying to please other people and not enough time really doing what I want and need to do. I'm starting a new mantra for myself where I am putting my needs first...and I don't mean in a selfish way...like I'm the only one that matters...but I've just felt recently that in doing good onto others, I just feel under-appreciated and like people are rarely willing to give back or even take note of the fact that I've gone out of my way for them. I'm sick of being stepped on or overlooked because I can often be a bit of a pushover...or even the fact that I inhibit or hide things out of the fear of what people will think. I think that side of me needs to take a step back and re-evaluate the way I go about things from day to day. So that is that.

11:39 pm
[Link] | I thoroughly enjoyed my one day off this week today!!! It was a bit of bust in some ways...like I was supposed to go to Typhoon Lagoon with Will and the kids...but then it started to rain...it stopped raining...so we went to one of the resorts to use their pool...but then they evacuated the pool bc supposedly a thunderstorm was coming...it never came....we ate lunch and then went back to his house and went swimming in his pool instead. After getting out of the pool, the kids wanted me to stay for dinner...which made me feel good because they definitely show signs of truly liking me. I couldn't stay though...I left shortly after to get home in time to watch the Tony Awards. What a beautiful show! It was inspiring and emotional for me to watch...as always. I always watch these award shows and think..."what if." I must admit that I've sort of "given up" on my performing endeavors lately. I've come to the conclusion that I just don't have the back bone for it. I have too many self doubts that get in the way...and I wish they weren't there because since as far back as I can remember that's what I wanted to do and what I wanted to be and nothing moves me more than witnessing a great performance...but I can't stop the voices in my head that tell me..."you can't you can't you can't" over and over...and im not sure why they are there in the first place...but there they are and there they'll be I guess. Anyway...my favorite acceptance speeches were when Karen Olivo won for West Side Story and the boys from Billy Elliot. I thought it was cute how those three little boys who won were found completely speechless...and the audience laughed....but really...that is the most genuine response I've ever seen and it was awesome. =)

[Link] | SO....today has been a full day of getting all types of news!!!
The two big ones are:
1) I HAVE A FULL TIME JOB NOW!!!! YAY!!! After being on a waiting list at Disney for about 6 months, I am finally going full time at the Boutique!!! YAYAYAYAY!!! So, now I have a real job with benefits and all that jazz and I am happy to be settling into one thing for a while =)
2) I got accepted into the Masters program in theater for young audiences at University of Central Florida....but...ummmm....they aren't running the program next year....so that means...ummmm....I'm not going back to school any time soon. It kind of sucks...but at least I know that they were interested in me.
So, now life goes on and we will see what else comes up....=)
