Life is Calling.
When I first found out about Peace Corp I knew it was something I was definitely interested in!! Now entering the time in my life when I would be actually applying to go, it seems unreal.
Tonight I went to an informational meeting with other people who really want to volunteer. Someone had even drove down from Wyoming just for this meeting. But there I was 20 mins late after the split minute decision to even go at all, and I'm so glad I did.
The story we heard tonight was about a woman who went to Vanuatu, a little collection of islands off of Australia. She had so much to tell us and her story was truly amazing. Imagine being stationed on an island where they speak hundreds of different languages and they are still under the government of a chief. Not to mention in a location where 8 active volcanoes surround you and there is a high chance of a cyclone talking out your power for weeks.

Anyway, I think the best part of the night was after when I talked to her about how I didn't know I I would qualify because I am studying theatre. She told me that if anything I would be more desirable and relatable because i could teach English with theatre, which almost every culture can have some tie too. Whether it be dance, music, art, or theatre performances performing arts can be very versatile!
After all was said and done, I was ready to fill out the application and go! Alas, I have to have a bachelors degree to teach English. But when I do... You better look out world!! ;)

Goodbye, Bald Soprano... Whoever you are!!
So this weekend was the official last cast activity we would have for The Bald Soprano. It's hard for me to say that it's over :'(
After every show there is always this feeling of bittersweet because you get your life back, but you don't get to see the same faces every night at rehearsal. I don't know it's not always a bad or a sad thing, but this time it was a little sad. It was my first ever theatre performance as a college student. I think that deserves some sort of acknowledgement, so it's getting its own post!!
I truly am so blessed to have such a great cast and crew... And not to mention all the people who came to support me. The show might have not made any sense, but friends, family, and sisters still came out anyway and I love them for it. It was a combination of everyone that made this show so great, because I know it wasn't the script!! ;)
So goodbye Mr./Mrs. Bald Soprano it was nice to know you!!
