I think the hows and whys don't matter, but suffice it to say that I'm back on the eljay.
Things are pretty good - no.. things are great :). I graduated yesterday, which means UM is no longer an immediate part of my life. It feels awesome. I've been putting up with so much crap from that school, it's kind of odd adjusting to not being in school (technically) anymore. I'm starting a masters degree at NYU next year, which is like still being in school, but not quite the same. I dunno, it's just a bit less unsure. I'm studying with Robert Dick next year - he's been my hero since I was about 14 and getting to work with him is a huge opportunity.
I'm also going to italy this summer. There's a program that I'm doing with NYU as part of maggio musicale. And I'm teaching myself italian, which is difficult and cool. I'm really excited :)
Oh yeah, remember that guy I told you about 9 months ago? His name is Michael and we're still together. It's scary and fun and wonderful and I really am so in love with him. It's funny how being in so many dysfunctional relationships makes being in a functional relationship so strange. It's hard work staying with him, but I feel like at the end of the day he's who I want to be with. He needs someone who can take care of him sometimes, and I need someone who pushes me to the next level as an artist, as a person. He totally does that for me, and it's great. It's hard work, but it's worth it. I've never felt like this before. It's awesome.
So that's the update on how things are going in my life. I'll probably start doing this more often :)
Love, mush, cupcakes,
