Intermission

Impossible to summarize a year in New York City. The changes I've personally experienced, but also beyond my own little existence. New York City is truly the most amazing city in the world. The amount of things happening at any given moment is astonishing. I've escaped to other worlds in the theatre but exploring various neighborhoods in the five boroughs.

As I passed thru Times Square beneath the lights on my way to the subway last night, I felt such a love for the City because I have found a home here. One can feel that comfort in a city of 10 million by those 10 or so people closest to them. The blessing of friendship had been imperative in my survival this year. As I dove into myself as an actor and pulled off layers and painfully broke down walls, I shared it with my sweet, loving NY family. Most likely the most eclectic family I will ever find, but so genuine. Whether its a relationship that takes months to plan a brunch together or someone I saw daily at work/class, the pace of this City forces a realness that is so refreshing! I eagerly welcome a break from the madness, but find a tinge of exciting anticipation waiting for me at the end of the summer when I return to the mayhem!

Don't worry, while my summer will slow down considerably, I'm sure I'll have adventures that are worth writing! Thank you for sharing this year with me!
