Blogging Blogging
Ook i really feel Like i need to do some blogging
Some Soul Searching- i use to blog all the time in junior high and then most of high school.
But when i got to college it just wasn't needed. But I like posting my feelings on the internet- getting it all out there- then people could read it if they needed to and make comments on things- maybe trying to help me.
But eventually that became unsafe- Google would pick all kinds of things up- or people would judge my words unfairly- so in my world of theatre- this was not something i could risk.
I couldn't get on anyones bad side.
But I keep wanting to Blog.
I used Xanga for years- but all the people that i wanted to read it weren't and all the people that i didn't want to read it did.
So that kinda sucked.
And tonight i tried using Myspace like some of my friends use- but it wasn't working for me- sooo I guess i could always open up this little sucker.
Soo my life a year ago....
Moved to New York City- the Paradise for an 18 year old, Gay Man Majoring in Musical theatre- everything was perfect. I had the best year- I was living in an amazing part of the city- i had easy access to everything. Saw soo many amazing shows and made the best friends while drawling closer to the ones i already had. It was the best year of my life hands down.... one problem... I wasn't learning anything- and I went to new york to learn how to be a real Actor, Singer, Dancer.
I was picking up dance classes at broadway dance which were great- and my voice teacher at School was great- but putting it all together and applying it just wasn't happening. And that's what i needed.
So at about April or May or my Freshman year i thought to myself- there is no way that I can live like this for the next 3 years- I just couldn't hope things would get better. I couldn't let my life be a party and hope for the best.
I need to study and train- so i left and auditioned for a new musical theatre program at Temple University which is where I am now
In between my freshman and sophomore year I studied at CAP 21 in NYC for 6 weeks- but i was in NYC for 8 weeks in my summer!!! That was even better then my freshman year because i actually was getting all the training AND education that I wanted!!! All this while living in my home or new york city...
But now back to life...
Currently I am living in North Philly. I'm in a single bedroom with my own bathroom sharing my common space with 3 roommates who i dont know or talk to very often. They seem nice enough but we are not best friends- unlike me and my roommate last year who were best friends.! Here I am learning and having a good time.
I don't feel like it is the best training ever- but it's consistent and I think i'll be able to make it happen. So I'll be working here hard and hope that things turn out.
I'm getting more confident with my skills and my technique- and me as a person.
Just wish i had some best friends to tell everything too.
I guess I have some pretty good friends here now- but like I don't have those BEST friends that you do everything with and can tell everything too.
I also need a Hag- you know that person that takes care of you and you take care of her.
I really miss new york but life will definitely work out here!!!!
Maybe someone will read this- who know???
