Seattle! That's right. I live here. Woah. Crazy, right? Yeah, it hasn't fully sunk in yet for me either. I mean, I have these random moments where I look around me and realize that THIS is my reality. But for the most part, I suppose that I'm still in the "honeymoon" stage of this new transition. But Seattle. Yes. It's so different from Utah and I freaking love it. Everything just feels... real here. I don't feel like society is living behind this thick facade. I've met some of the most amazing and influential people in my life to date. I guess I'll take a little time to spotlight them...
Taylor Nicole Murphy - Ahhh shewt. This woman is a straight up star. She has the voice of one of Adele's angels. I enjoy her company oh so much. She's hilarious and ridiculous always. We met on facebook on the Cornish page way back in like April and I always kinda knew that her and I would turn up being best friends at Cornish. And I was right! She's a gem and I'm so lucky to have her in my life.
The people here are my favorite part, hands down. Cornish in general is treating me well. All of the faculty have so much to offer me. I love the fact that they're all working artists. They all are constantly involved in some kind of project, somewhere. That's another thing, there is SO much live theatre to see! I feel so artistically supported here. This sounds overly dramatic, but my heart is constantly rejuvenated with art and passion every, single morning. I love it! Even if I don't end up staying here for all four years, I know that this is where I'm meant to be at this very moment.
At some point I'm going to have to ramble about my yoga class. It has been a life altering course. Literally. It has brought so much peace to my mind. Since I've taken yoga, I feel myself letting go of my past and futuristic fears and allowing myself to live in the present moment. Obviously this applies to acting, but I never considered applying this to my life. Crazy, heh? Once I did, however, I found everything in general to be far less stressful. I stopped living in the fears of the past and the future, and placed my focus on the now. What a concept.
As for my life at this very moment, I'm sick. It's so na-sty. I haaate it. Hopefully, it'll all be gone by Thursday. Because..... it's my Birfday!! I'm so excited! A bunch of us are going to The Cheesecake Factory. It's gonna be wonderful. And next week is Thanksgiving Break! Woooooohoo. No, I'm not going home. I'm going to Zack's. He's such a good guy, for letting me come home with him. He really is the best. See! I told you I could go on and on. Any who... I'm not that bummed that I'm not going home. Like I said, it feels like I just moved in, and already I'm about to go home. I am excited to go home, though. It'll be good to see my family and friends and SPA. It's a little odd though; I've had the privilege to see Taylor's and Zack's home, meet their friends, and see their hometowns. I want to do the same for them! I wish I could take them to Utah, show them my places, my people, my past. But I guess my scrapbook will have to do for now.
Well! I feel like that's a pretty good start to revamping this blog. Until next time... A
