I feel like I'm back at theatre camp for another summer! CPCC has definitely been THE highlight of my summer. I've learned a lot about going downtown, I've made some amazing friends, and I've become more confident about myself as a person as well as an actress ( Read more... )

It hasn't been the greatest week. I'm just not myself. I feel like I go through this every summer - some self-pity, bitterness, and overall irritability. I think it has a LOT to do with the transition from having no time to spare besides sleep and study to scraping for something to do without being forced to do housework. I've had to do my fair ( Read more... )

My summer job, until I officially start my internship at CPCC, is browsing college websites on the computer. Prior to today, I felt pretty good about how things were going, the progress I had made, and my future as an actress. Today, I have mixed feelings ( Read more... )

So is it odd that after about 4.5 months of NOT thinking about him, random thoughts of "Frank" from this summer pop back into my head? It's unfortunate, because now I'm randomly missing this guy who I didn't get to know all that well. It was like one of those movie moments - you know, the person sees someone on a subway, let's say, and then they ( Read more... )

 Augh!!! So, my life has been uber stressful lately. Let's see... I talked about the play and stuff. Whew. Glad that's over. It was followed by a succession of honors chorus (it was last weekend), musical auditions (Wednesday), and so much homework stress in between. A depressing week, for sure ( Read more... )

 I guess I should listen to what everyone else, even what I am saying - there's no reason to be upset. I can't help it, though, at least not tonight. I get one night to wallow in self-pity, right? It's just that I worked so hard, just like last year, and once again I screwed it up. And for the same stupid reason. Nerves. I could blame it on the ( Read more... )
