Part of Me......
Look in these eyes you'll see the dark
That little space inside my heart
The darkest side withholds the light
The light that brightens me inside
You don't know
Angels don't fly, they have no wings
It is another of those things
That we make up
That we believe
The real thing is not what we conceive
Chorus:
You don't know
I won't let you see me
I will hide, I will lie
As true as can be
You just don't have
What it would take
To be a part of me
The darkest side withholds the light
The light that shines
You can't deny
Chorus (x2)
These arms are my heart
These arms are my heart
These arms are my heart
These arms are my heart
The darkest side withholds the light
The light that shines
You can't deny
These arms are my heart
These arms are my heart
These arms are my heart
These arms are my heart
So.........another semester down! I try as hard as I can not to look too far into the future but it occured to me that I am half done! Sure I'm going to stay for my MA eventually, but for my BA, I am halfway done! 2 more years, 4 more semesters! Where did it go? What have I accopmlished?
Those who know me quite well will know that I am an avid-practicing pessimist! No matter how good things can get....I can always find the bad side. So, my first reaction to that question of "What have I accomplished" was ....I have accomplished, nothing! The pessimist in me would have me look at everything I have been a part of here as a failure and nothing to celebrate. The optimist in me would like to say a few words.... The semester is ending and once more the world changes. People are leaving and a new chapter is being opened. One should not dwell in the past but never keep it too far back. I was once frightened of the future, now I embrace it with open arms and anticipation. Yet, as much as I embrace the future, I live in the present.
Tonight was a MASK AND DAGGER End of 2004-2005 season dinner! Though I was merely a patron to there shows, a friend of mine within the group invited me to attend the festivities. It was fun and a truly entertaining night! But something truly hit me for the first time....As a hugged a friend of mine, who was a senior, I realized that she would not be here next year. I looked around and saw the faces of the seniors that would be departing and felt a cold twinge of sadness. So many familiar faces would be leaving and never coming back. I take this opportunity to thank some:
Krystal Rowley, it was so amazing getting to know you this year and I will hold you close in my heart! I will see you in YOU'RE A GOOD MAN THIS SUMMER!
Veronica Depirna, what can I say about my favorite dancer-actress-singer...she has touched me in ways I cannot describe. Her boundless enthusiam has always brought a smile to my face and to heart.
Kim Robinson, B-F-F...to think that just one night we said that and we just clicked as friends. You have been a big part of this semester and you never cease to make me happy in the darkest times. You know what to say to make me smile!
Jack O'Sullivan, what more can I say about a puppeteer who put on a maid's outfit for the whole campus! Our mock fights have been humorous and next year will be depressing having nobody to throw a COMPLETE WORKS OF SHAKESPEARE at for no reason!
Jason Cotting, thank you for accepting me for who I am and being a trust-worthy friend.
Shannon Marshall, to the girl who's personality is like nothing I have ever experienced! Bi-Polar to no end but I always smile when I am in your presence. To the girl in my education classes....I will miss you!
......To the rest of those departing seniors, God Bless and Good Luck in the Real World! Don't ever let it get you down!
As I continued to leave the gathering, I looked at some people that have truly made this semester something worthwhile to me. Now, I thank them....
Tatum Harvey, my british girl who will be returning to us soon. I have miss you so this semester and I will look forward to the next year we have with each other.
Tara Conway, we fight, we bicker and what not...but I would not want to bicker with anyone but you! You always make me smile and though I felt distant from you this semester, I hope to see you soon and that next semester brings some fun times for us!
Josh Clement, that kid who goes to movies with me. Not recently but you are one funny kid who is always there to go to dinner with or to just hangout with in the green room. Thank you Josh.
Kahlan Collins, Oh Kahlan!
Seraphina C, Caitlin F, Rachel B, my three favorite freshmen! You bring a smile to my face whenever I see you!
Sam Cistulli, the best....the best! There is nothing more to say!! (If you don't understand that, you never will!)
Krystal Barry, two things........... 1) Up!! and 2) $20 Dollars
Tucker Cummings, I thank you the most! You have stood by me even when I did not stand by myself! I thank you for everything and I trust you with all my heart! To a summer at David Richman's house, to the Tempest, to next semester!
To anyone I missed, you have made this semester amazing! I will miss you all this summer! Stay in touch....I will see you next semester!!!
On the drive back from the function I began to think about what I accomplished this year. The shows I had done and who I had been with for those shows!!
TITANIC........well, it was a start for the season!! : )
CHORUS OF DISAPPROVAL - What a fantastic show that was! I miss the cast and everyone who made that show possible! It was my first real role on the UNH Stage and you all made it amazing! Tatum, Tara, Jamie, CJ, Dan, Sam, David K......it was amazing!!
MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING - 2 scenes but they were amazing scenes for me! Such a growing experience....my first Shakespeare....hopefully not my last!! I had such an amazing time and I could not have done it without Deb Kinghorn, one of the most amazing professors I have ever come across. Deb, you are astounding!!
APRES OPERA - What can I say...I had fun being a narcoleptic in Veronica Depirna's Directing I play! It was funny and painful! It was fun!!
PERICLES - Me....Direct a scene from Shakespeare.....for the President of the University.....at an Art's Benefit? OH! It was fun and we all did it! I was so proud of the cast and it was a blast working with everyone. Tucker, Steph, Jen, David.....you are all amazing!!
DIRECTING 2 scene...........why don't come see and tell me about it!! May 11th, 2005 at the PCAC at UNH at 7PM....free admission!!!
What a semester! From this view...it seems the optimist has won!! All this is now, a part of me!! It will always be! I will miss the past but embrace the future!! Everyone stay in touch! I love you all!!
To the future!
