2012 wrap up

Happy New Year to all of my followers. I am really looking forward to 2013. 2012 was a year of theatrical, academic and spiritual strides for me. I leave it feeling grounded and content. I felt so blessed in 2012, it was definitely the best year yet since I've been in Jersey City and I say that even though I got my heart broke into a million pieces in this past year. But to have done 2 plays outside of school while in school, to win a statewide singing competition, to make it to the next round of the South Eastern Theatre Conference and to have completed my first ever Opera made it very special and I leave it with a sense of accomplishment. I was struggling in a couple of classes in school and passed them this year! I also stated reading scripture and other works of comparative religion and made praying a part of my everyday routine by continuing the practice in itself. Man I can't say it wasn't too shabby. It was alright, I feel blessed. Of course there were some setbacks but this year the positives actually outweighed the negatives and I can only hope 2013 does the same.

Here is a wrap up of 2012 VIA Instagram!

I performed a lot in 2012!  I did two shows outside of school, Won first place in the NATS competition and completed a lot of gigs.  And I believe grew a lot artistically.

One of my Best Friend's had a wedding!
 
 

In August I was reunited with another friend that I haven't seen in like 7 years or so!

 



 
And Our President WON!!!!
 
All in all 2012 was a year of accomplishments and I am very happy that I am able to look back on it through my blog. I am really looking forward to 2013 and starting some new resolutions. My next post will be about resolutions. I hope everyone is enjoying their new year!

Welcome 2012!


I know I'm late but I've been enjoying my new year thus far and haven't really been around my computer to do my usual updates.  Right now I'm at my parents house in quaint little Bordentown NJ.  This is where I spent New Years Eve, New Years Day and all the days that have followed since welcoming 2012 with open arms.  The pictures were really taken New Years Day, or better yet New Year's Morning!  When I came home around 7am I got my MOM dukes to snap these shots for me!  Please excuse the partied out hair and my tired appearance.  The sweater/cardigan however, I got THRIFTED!  (YEAH)  From my favorite thrift store, the RED,WHITE and BLUE on route 33 Hamilton NJ!  I got it for like $3.99, equipped with shoulder pads and all!  I've had it for quite sometime just never wore it and had someone to take my picture!  But I really liked how this spur of the moment outfit came about!

You'll also get to see one of my Christmas presents, my new Ipod touch!  I'm in love with it!  I hope you like and are enjoying your new year!
