Well, it's been quite a long time since I've been on here, but I felt like a little update is nice. School has been alright. I feel like I don't know how to make friends. I'll meet people and I can talk to them like they are my pals but I have no idea to make a friendship out of it. My roommates are cool though. Almost nightly Rhea and I make these hilarious improvised skits, the most famous being "the maid" and "tina and maria." I still haven't been quite successful in my theater career yet. I've had about 8 auditions since school started, I've had one callback, and tonight I have the dance portion for my Pirates of Penzance audition, yesterday I had the song/monologue audition and it went alright. I was prepared to sing acapella and then the pianist knew my music and told me to start singing and I kind of had to adjust on the spot, but whatever If I get it I do if I don't Laramie project auditions are next. It's so weird going from show show show, to going to audition audition audition audition audition callback audition. It's so tough sometimes when you go to an art school, and your creative fulfillment is partially based on someone else. I can audition the best as I can and at the end of the day it someone elses decision. That's why I've been going into the practice rooms a lot, to go sing and play piano, and writing a lot, because otherwise I'd be completely emotionless from all these auditions. I'm happy where I am, but sometimes I wish I went farther away. My initial plan was the do theatre in Chicago for about 2 years after college and then head out to New York because I just feel like thats where my energy is leading me to, but I feel like that move might come a little quicker, ahhh well things will fall into place.
