Maybe a weird reason to make a post, but my college BFF Kerrie just managed to sum up exactly how I feel about our mutual place of higher education, and probably more eloquently than I could put it:

On a completely unrelated note... my friends are always posting weird meme/side-by-side comparison pictures on facebook, but ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. This one is just downright creepy. LMAO.


(as a side note: the above picture is from a play I was in in high school. I do not always dress quite so fabulously in so many sequins)

Eliza also finally posted some pictures from when she went to Comic Con on Friday with me this year.

WE MADE A NEW FRIEND


And traveled through a Stargate. And I always make stupid faces in pictures. ALWAYS.

Long time no blog (for the three people I know actually read this. Hi Kerrie, Rose, and Dad XD)! Life has been a little crazy lately for a number of reasons, but for the most part things are going relatively well. My new neighborhood is relatively boring after 9:00 PM especially after having lived in Manhattan for 4 years, but it is a nice place and I have at long last been reunited with my cat. :P

The main reason I made this post is to share a few awesome things I rediscovered lately during late night youtube adventures.





And on a completely different note: it is now less than two months until my favorite holiday of all time. And not just because of the Disneyland fireworks.



I will actually be going home for Christmas (if only briefly), which I am glad of since it was not a sure deal until today. LOOK OUT EAST COAST, I'M COMING FOR YOU. :D

Family fun times in Colorado

I've been criminally neglecting this blog lately, but my dad recently (FINALLY) sent me some pictures from our family vacation to Colorado earlier this year and I figured that was a good excuse for a post.

First off, my grandpa's memorial. Our Colorado cabin belonged to him and his family before us (dating all the way back to when it was built in the 1920s)


The tops of mountains are very windy (AND COLD)


My parents thought this was funny. XD


We take this same picture every year we go. The height ratios have changed somewhat since I was ten XD


ADVENTURE IS OUT THERE


My little brother has long floofy girl hair :P


The rare and elusive group picture where none of us is making silly faces


AND NOW: a whole bunch of gorgeous scenery pictures that I can't come up with appropriate captions for. Colorado is absolutely beautiful (a few of these are actually from last year, but I couldn't resist).

Hello West Coast!

I am in San Diego now, and for the most part I am very much enjoying the city. I am mostly on my own at the moment. Eliza, my best friend since age two, and her boyfriend Curt are moving back here the 14th and it will be awesome to see some friendly faces. :)

Not much to say at the moment, so instead I am going to list the things here that might take a little getting used to:
-Actually having to press the button for a walk signal. I've forgotten about this an embarrassing number of times.
-Not being able to walk everywhere just because of the layout of the city. There's lots of stuff that's close enough, but not all the roads have sidewalks
-STARBUCKS IS CHEAPER HERE. I got a grande frappucino today and paid less than $4 for it. It was magical.
-Movies are also cheaper here. I approve of $9 movie tickets.
-Completely different array of fast food chains. Rubios fish tacos may become a new favorite of mine.
-BUSES. The bus system here is crazy complicated but I am slowly figuring it out. I have taken the buses a couple of times and managed to not get lost yet. Knock on wood.
-On a similar topic, the one thing I really don't like about the buses is the lack of free transfers. You have to pay every time you get on a new bus. In BOTH directions. Which means one bus trip with one transfer costs me almost $10 round trip. They do have monthly passes however, and I may have to invest in one since I've ended up relying on the buses more than expected.
-THE WEATHER. Oh my god the weather. It hasn't been anything but sunny and comfortably warm since I got here. It's beautiful.

However, some things never change. I think you Vermont people in particular will appreciate the fact that even in Southern California... the fair has Swifty Swine's Racing Pigs.

Well, I leave for San Diego in less than a week.

Not much to say really. Currently couch surfing with some awesome friends in Queens until I leave.

However, I will leave you with a moment of zen.

This is a door. A bathroom door...

... in Disneyworld

Heeey! Long time no blog! Wanna know what I've been up to?

A lot of my theater department


With my BFF/roommate of two years, Kerrie.




With our friend Rose



That's right ladies and gents, as of today I am an official graduate of Pace University! Our ceremony was at the famous Radio City Music Hall, home of the Rockettes. There were, however, no rockettes at out graduation ceremony unfortunately. But Kadey did do a back handspring across the stage, so that's something. XD

I had no elaborate graduation day pranks, but I did throw up some rock hands in the official photos they were taking of me.

Summer suggestions?

So this time we have a post with no pictures! Imagine that!

Anyhow, as most of you who are reading this (or at least the one's who are following this blog) know, I am spending around two months this summer in sunny San Diego. I'm heading out there at the end of June to spend time with my lovely lady, and some friends, as well as my childhood BFF from Vermont who just so happens to be moving out there this summer to live with her boyfriend and who has offered me a possible place to stay (I was originally tentatively planning to stay in Santa Barbara with friends of my dad's).

So the question is... what does one do in San Diego? I was born in SoCal, but we moved when I was two and I haven't been back there to visit since I was in the 2nd grade. I already have tickets for San Diego Comic Con in July, and I plan on hitting up various theme parks and such, not to mention the beaches. HOWEVER, is there anything else in the area I should be sure to see/do? I know some of you have been there and know the area way better than I do.

Definitely planning on trying to hit up some auditions in LA while I'm out there too. Might as well! Who knows, maybe I'll actually get something?

On that topic, if anyone has suggestions for a part time summer job out there, that would be awesome. I'd like to try not to eat through ALL of my savings. XD

OK, I lied. I couldn't let this post end without a picture. So here's my friends and I getting all soaked at Universal Studios Florida last year.
