Oooh what a crazy last couple of days...I found out that I qualified for the BFA acting program at UMD. YAY! I auditioned for the musical theatre program but the faculty as a whole thought it would be better for me, and my type, to do straight acting because I am more marketable that way. I will still take dance classes like crazy and voice lessons, and I get to be in the musical theatre class with Kate so really its not a huge difference. Ann said that I had a great audition and I feel like its a compliment to how far I have come this year to be accepted at all. I mean, my background is in singing and dancing mostly, and honestly I am really proud that my acting can stand on its own. Plus I have come so far this year figuring out who I am and where I belong, and I am so happy that I am exactly where I want to be. Thursday was a really hard day though..very bittersweet. It felt great to be accepted into the program, but when some of my closest friends didn't qualify, it was so hard. Our class is so close, I pray we can all stay that way. We still have a huge amount that qualified: 5 musical theatre. 7 straight acting and 2 techies. Crazy. Thanks to everyone for an amazing year!! I already miss you guys like crazy. Duluth doesn't feel the same without you!!
So then on thursday nite/friday I moved back home...to the land of slow, dial up internet haha. But uh yeah our basement thought it would be fun if it was flooded by a faulty ice machine! yeah! so everything that was in our basement is now in our living room and our house is one big clutter. woohoo!! And i've been working a lot which is good cause i need money, and my mom has been bugging me to apply for more jobs and i'm working on it which she doesn't seem to get. I don't know, its hard coming home. I mean i love it here, but i've changed so much and I kind of feel like its not the same place i left. My brother and sister are both older, I feel like Emily doesn't need me as much as she used to. And since I've come more independent and more willing to stand up for myself my mom and I have kind of been fighting but then we've also had some really great talks. I don't know...I just miss everyone so much. Its weird for us to have had so much building up to finding out about qualifying and then everyone just leaves. hmm..anyway...If any of you guys are up in Duluth, give me a call and if I am not slaving away at work we should hang out!!
Love to everyone! I hope your transition back home is going well!!
