So! A lot has happened since I last blogged. I got back into SHSU and I love it! I move out of my wonderful apartment May 31, and into a super cool apartment right off campus June 1. B2B’s doing Into the Woods, and I am SUPER excited about the audition, because I hope they’ll cast me as Little Red or even Cinderella. I think Little Red is my top choice, though. After months of deep deliberation, I changed my major. I am now double majoring in Political Science and Criminal Justice, with a minor in Psychology. I am interested in going to law school right out of college, or maybe go into criminology or investigation work. I am focused on learning, and realistic in knowing that the more I know, the more I’ll know which path I want to choose. I haven’t told my parents yet. How can you explain to someone that you don’t really care about something you once were so obsessive and passionate for? I don’t care about it enough to get my degree in it, or try to make a living in it. I felt like a fraud in the theatre building. It’s so hard to put on a mask and hide it. I chose to go back to SHSU and try theatre again. And yes, I know it, it comes easier to me, I do it well. I was able to idealize it in Houston, because it really is so much better than UH. But once I got back, I realized why it was so easy for me to leave the first time. SHSU is an amazing college, but the musical theatre/theatre department is not for me. And I am no longer afraid to try my hand at law. I’m sick of letting fear keep me from things.
