Back from MIA

Wow. I haven't touched this thing since renfair. Now that's sad. But this still is the best way to keep track of things that happen in my life.

This was the very day of my brother's graduation party! I saw a lot of people I haven't seen in a while and will probably not see again for another long while as I'm going back to Disney on Monday. Oh yes, by the way, I'm home for the weekend! It's nice to be able to hang out with my family again. Even though some of the extended family can be... odd, and a bit messed up at times.

Anyway, as per Disney so far, I have one roommate who I've just recently gotten to understand better. We've been able to have a few heart to hearts to work out some wrinkles in our relationship and everything seems to be going great now. Another roommate just moved in today, but as I have said, I'm not there.

Work is same old same old, save they want me to be a trainer. It sounds interesting so I'm going to give it a try. I've always liked teaching people new things.

I'm networking a lot lately and trying to see what it would be like to try a bunch of different jobs out. I'm young and would like to give many of the different positions a try before I settle down in a real job. A real job I'm aiming for would be to work in one of the shows as a techie. That would be truly amazing!

But I seem to have one problem. My job puts me in contact with a lot of famous and very talented people and whenever I'm formally introduced to someone, I freeze. I can't seem to think of anything to say and end up just standing there like a fool. Like me and my roommate went to a show on our day off and she knew someone there. She introduced me to him and he as one of my favorite singers (which he was). I froze and was unable to speak. I was terrified of going all fangirl and instead just came off as kind of creepy. And the sad thing is that I'm going to be seeing this guy around a lot, because he's still going to work there and I'm definitely going to see the show more.

Now I don't know what to do, because this happening isn't the only one. I want to treat people I admire just like everyone else, but there's also this odd need to tell them I appreciate what they do, that borders on fangirlish-ness. (Is that a word?) I guess I just need more practice. But the question is, what do I do when I see the previously mentioned singer again? Do I avoid him? Apologize? Or just play along like nothing happened? Any advice is welcome.

Well, that's all for my rant tonight. I'm off to sleep! G'Night!
