hello,
I am back.
I am currently a senior at UNC-Charlotte. Most days I am happy. Most days I just want to graduate. I am working on a lot of things right now. Foremost, I am trying to develop myself as a writer and an artist. I am not quite sure what that means. Most days I think it means it means dreaming and fighting for and with those dreams.
Speaking of dreams, I am having really odd ones. I have never been a person to dream about marriage...ever. Curiously, I have had two dreams about getting married/having a husband. I was a beautiful bride, blushing and whatnot, and then I woke up. Angry. My second dream included a specific gentleman by the name of James Michael Patterson (not related), an upstanding military officer with longstanding issues with his family. I loved him but quickly became a mediator between him and his family which I found irritating and altogether too realistic.
I am looking to graduate in December which means trying to plan for that magical, mystical Life-After-Graduation. I am currently looking at grad schools for playwriting and performance studies. It feels like there are too many schools and too few Les's. In my perfect world, I could graduate and get a dream internship with This American Life. I plan on applying, but I realize it's a stretch.
I feel incredibly blessed to surrounded by so many people that are incredibly supportive of my work and my goals.
My dad says that he's proud of me.
Most days, I try to be too.
