Dans deux Annees

Well its been about two years since I last posted something to this blog . That's kind of crazy to think about. Since that post I've experienced more than words can convey. Some monumental things have happened and I'm quite unsure as of yet how to process any of it. I dont really know how to think about what's happened.

For one thing I've graduated from college and to me it was a huge sigh of relief. What a burden was lifted when I walked down that aisle, crossed the stage, smiled and received my diploma. That whole last semester went by in a flash and yet I had no idea where I landed on the other side of my education. I began it in wide eyed wonder and left it with not a small amount of cynicism and frustration. I looked forward to the months ahead where I would finally experience my freedom both from my parents and from Mother Moody.

I immediately began entering into the world I had dreamed of since my first Drama class with Melissa Hill (Hawkins). I was invited to be the stage manager for the first and what turned out to be the only production of the fledgling Lake Como in Rome theatre company. I quickly made friends with Elisabeth who was the director and strengthened my bond with my acting idol, Kevin V. Smith.  Through that time working on the play, I had a chance to be out from under the laws of Moody: I could drink, smoke, and be around gay and un-churched people without feeling guilty.  I spent as much time as I could with Kevin and Elisabeth and learned a lot. Looking back I was given so much essential constructive criticism that I cannot thank them enough. That's one thing I wish I had more of in my life... that's weird isn't it?....
