Re-cap

I'm trying desperately hard to conquer the commitment a blog takes. I find myself constantly walking through my day to day life when a random thought jumps in my head such as:

1. I wonder if Urban Outfitters has a special portion of their interview process where they make sure the employee they are hiring is going to be completely inattentive and unapproachable.

2. I just discovered a new show is coming out called "Sexting in America." As if MTV wasn't satisfied with their already outstanding line-up of nightly programs...

3. I have realized an abnormally large pet peeve of mine is when people spit their gum into water fountains.

After just writing these down I see why the better option would be just to keep these thoughts in my head. I just spent the last week in Chicago auditioning for 4 different grad school programs. The entire process was truly a struggle. I found myself constantly questioning why I was in a field that can be so competitive and self-centered. In my opinion acting should by one-for-all and all-for-one..and all that schpiel. I found, however, that being completely in the center of the competitive mentality of the acting world, it caused me to reinforce my own beliefs about theatre, and reminded me that the reason I love it is for everything I wasn't seeing during the week. I believe there is a greater purpose for theatre somewhere else and now I'm just determined to find it. I was extremely proud of all my friends that were also there, however, and believe they will each accomplish great things.

Sincerity. Gross.
