yes, i'm still alive.
weird. it's been quite a while since i even thought about writing in this...i guess there hasn't been all that much to report. still interning my ass off here at florida rep. my contract was supposed to last until june 17, but i just got offered a great role in a world premiere show at GableStage in Coral Gables...so i'll be leaving fort myers next week. almost a full month early. crazy. as insane as the schedule here has been, as many early mornings, as ridiculous the work load - i'm really gonna miss it. and i can't believe it's gone so fast. who knew a 9 month season would fly by? it does look like i'll be back here next season though - as a staff/company member. so that's nice.
as i was preparing for an audition this past week, i looked at my resume and thought how odd it is that (as a musical theatre major), i have more plays than musicals on my professional resume. hmm. not a bad thing, just odd to me. also, i realized that i have been working steadily since graduation a year ago. 1 year down in the books. 1 year of being a "professional actress." it's so bizarre because i feel like i'm still just "having fun" and that it's not a "real" job. but i suppose that's what you get when you end up doing what you love. i can't wait to wake up and get to the theatre in the morning. it's amazing.
i also think about all of you. that is, to say all my friends who read this journal...and how amazing we all are for going out there and surviving in the post-college world. whether we're struggling, loving life, hating life, passing the time or whatever - we're surviving and we all have an amazing support network in each other. so, much love to all those friends far and wide. hope you are all loving life at this point in time.
