LIBYOEDO

Well. Here it is. My last semester at Chico State. Whoa. That came out of no where. Seriously? Like, this is for real? But... Wow...
No good-byes yet. I can't handle that. There are too many wonderful and beautiful people I have met here that it will be hard saying farewell too, but it's not like I will never see them again!
Here's a concern of mine: WHAT AM I GOING TO DO WHEN I GRADUATE!? I have a few options:
  1. Move to Houston and live on my parents dime for a little while. Save. Maybe do some community work. Try out for the Alley Theatre. Eat good food. Get nice and fat. Work at one of the 5 million restaurants in the 3rd biggest city in the nation.
  2. Stay in Chico for a bit longer and save save save to move down south. Stick around and do some community shows. If I'm here long enough, audition for Chico again (why the hell not?)
  3. Move to L.A immediately and audition my toosh off, and find a job.
  4. Stay up in Ashland and audition for OSF.
  5. Pick my nose all day.
  6. Stay up in WA with my brother and his wife and soon to be coming son, my new nephew, for a little. Just to get out of Cali.
  7. Go out east and stay with my cousin for a bit in Connecticut.
What my plan has been for the longest time is stay in Chico until December, maybe earlier just to save up some good money, and then move down to L.A. Give myself a year, two tops, to see what happens down there, and if I'm just not feeling it (which I doubt) go out to Chicago and hit up some Second City and go for SNL. I honestly just see myself in L.A, but I don't know if it's because I have been telling myself that for the past 4 years, or if it's because I honestly, truly want to be there.
I just don't know.
And I am soooo scared to make the wrong choice, because it's on me if I do.
Option 1 and 2 seem to be the best looking ones as of right now. I don't know if I am ready to move to L.A immediately. I have no money. Where would I live? What would I eat? Another option I have floating around in my cranium is just fly somewhere. Save up like $800, pack a backpack with underwear, a sweatshirt and a blanket, go to the airport, pick a place and go. Why not? Doesn't that sound so liberating and scary at the same time? No one can tell me no, no one can stop me. Wow.

Did the juried dance auditions today and remembered how much I like to move. I definitely want to do Momentum this semester. I just love to dance. Semester auditions are tomorrow and I am now starting to get nervous. I wasn't before today, but after seeing all the teachers and other students it's finally hitting me that I want to go out with a BANG. So I think I may throw in a song tomorrow, because what's the worse that could happen? They tell me my pitch is off and I not get called back and not be cast in something that I wasn't planning on auditioning for anyway? Oooookay. And I think I might do Run and Tell That from Hairspray. Yarp.

Well, I will be doing Zumba at 9:30 a.m. Better sleep.
Night lovelies!
