"It is with great joy" or "I'm free!"

Feb 03, 2008 01:14

That I announce I have retired from professional singing. I am leaving the option open of coming out of retirement sometime in the future, but as of now, I shall only be teaching and working at the theater.

I am considering going back to school and getting a degree in economics, marketing, or advertising, and am also considering moving out west. For the last few years, I have felt a strong pull toward Seattle and Los Angeles. I have, actually, many times, dreamed that I was living in L.A. and doing quite well. A sign? Maybe. We'll see. Either way, I'm making some big changes and I'm making them so I can be ME instead of what I have thought I should be.

When I was in high school I used to dream about being an actor in L.A. I have always wanted a motorbike and living there I could ride it year round. People have often told me that I am too easy going to live in NYC. I have often thought they were right. I can be tough when I need to be, but I don't think I am conniving enough to make it big here.

I still love this city, but maybe it is time to change. I love Cleveland, too, but it isn't for me anymore.

I am so excited at the thought of going west. Moreso, I am excited at being free. I finally broke out of the prison I had built for myself!

Cheers!
