So... This is a New Place.

So... somehow in the last year of college I have managed to unlearn and relearn alot about myself, pretty much everything. I think this could be a good thing. So I have tried keeping track of my life and what I want to do with it on paper, and I always loose whatever I write, so lets try technology. So my goal here is to try and lay out the pieces of my life and all the wonderful stuff I want to do so I can actually do them in the near future. I graduate with a BFA in Stage Management in exactly 2 months and the next day I leave for an 11 week contract in Ohio. My contract is over Aug 10th and what do I do then? Here are some hope/ideas/craziness.

1. Move to D.C. and work professionally as a Stage Manager at some wonderful theater that has given me a job offer previously. Ideally this would mean a full season, housing in the city, and a stipend. All I am actually looking for is a paying Stage Management job.

2. Get a Stage Management job at Virginia Stage Company in Norfolk and move there and live. I grew up with this company and learned everything I know about theater at VSC.

3. Move home and work at whatever job I could, I could go back to being a waitress and make a hell of a lot of money fast, and then move to D.C.

4. Move to Hawaii, just go, move there and just hope that it will all be ok and I can get a real people job and live on the beach and be happy.

5. Do something crazy like join the army or navy or be a gypsy in Italy as I have gotten pretty good at Tarot reading.


So I am obviously very worried about my future, because hey it the only life I have so why no live it, but the thing that is making me crazy is that when I express my worry, everyone tells me "I don't worry about you at all, you seem to have it all planned" Ahh! Planned? Really? Really? Thanks for the help.

So this is ending up being a pretty long post, but seeing how it is mt first one on this blog I think that is ok. I pretty much hope no one reads this that I know but I feel that me actually taking words and putting them into the world makes them something I can't run away from, which I am SO good at. I with there was an Olympic metal in Emotional Sprinting, because I would have Gold baby!

Goals for this week (If I make a list I will actually accomplish them, I am getting a BFA is making lists and moving furniture really quietly...)
- FINISH ALL MY INTERN APPLICATIONS!
- S.A.L.T. Board Grant Application (They better name something after me)
- Gym
- Tech The Who's Tommy with my sanity and a smile on my face.
