In the last 7 hours:
I have typed up four pages of information on a murder trial, finished answering all of my emails, uploaded a rehearsal video, written half a broadcast script and designed a promo flyer for Arc of Mass…and I’m STILL working. This is ridiculous…
I have stopped once to use the ladies room. ONCE.
I’ve gone through my entire Spotify instrumental playlist...
It smells like Spring today.
I opened up my window and as the air rushed in, it just filled me up. It quickly jogged my memory. I remember a spring day when I was younger smelled like this; it felt like this.
It was a soft cool breeze, light all around, and you could just smell the crispness of the air. I remember exactly where I was. I was running around a grass field at my old elementary...
You really don’t pay attention to how depressing the world can be.
That is until you’re writing stories for EIV Live @9 and all of your stories for the past three weeks have had to do with shootings, stabbings, homicides, injuries, or men videotaping women in the shower.
And I might add, all of these taking place in one month’s time in the city of Boston.
This world is a sad,...

“What if a demon were to creep after you one night, in your loneliest loneliness, and say, ‘This life which you live must be lived by you once again and innumerable times more; and every pain and joy and thought and sigh must come again to you, all in the same sequence. The eternal hourglass…
Nice quote Skibo. This is so thought provoking. Sad part is, my first thought was the...
I will never understand why perfect moments don’t trump the bad ones. Why regardless of how happy you are sometimes, one little negative twist and everything is gone. It just doesn’t make sense why I can’t just be happy and stay that way. I think of myself as a cheerful person, I so love being optimistic, I’m finding that I have found so much more joy in things lately. But...
When just listening to a piece of music makes water start to uncontrollably flow out of your eyes, you know it hit home.
I haven’t had that happen in so long. I am so overjoyed and unbelievably sad at the same time. It’s so refreshing in the strangest way.
God, it feels so good to be home, heart.

Move Through
Life is so peculiar sometimes. It’s funny how things change, how a day can change. For example, waking up in the morning and telling yourself it’s going to be a great day doesn’t always work. Even having a glorious part of your day doesn’t ensure a one track span.
Life deals you a messy hand and it’s your job to sort through it. I guess I just never expected my...
Pre Opening Night
I’m sitting here, about 9 hours away from XDance 2012 opening night.
I could not be more excited. This project has been almost a year in the making, and to see it come to life on stage is just a dream. The process may have been a little rocky at times, but my god was it worth it.
I am so proud to be here in this very moment. I a so proud of my cast of dancers, so proud of our crew, so...

Just a Word Away From a Roadtrip
A friend of mine is currently driving across the United States. He has been talking about this trip for a year now and my friends and I were never 100% sure when it was actually going to happen. Or if it would even, mainly because plans change and things come up. But, it happened.
While he travels, he writes. He has created a sort of memoir blog about his travels, recounting events, talking of...
Internship Opp.
Work get to work on ad campaigns for an artist management company. More specifically, in music.
PAID.
I need an internship, and I need money.
It’s in Brighton.
WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN??? =[
OK. Mopey no more! I’m going to go dance tomorrow and hit the hip-hop combo as HARD as humanly possible because it is going to feel SO GOOD. Then, I am going to finish teaching my XDance piece. 14 minutes, DONE. Then, I’m going to reserve a studio and bang out at least 30 seconds of choreography for my EDC piece.
THEN, I am going to go to EDC auditions next Sunday and kick my butt...
Dear life,
Tonight, I am going out. I am going to forget about absolutely EVERYTHING, be completely myself, clear my head and not feel a single bit guilty about it.
I am going to have a great time. I am going to smile and laugh and giggle a lot. I am going to do my hair and put on makeup and dress pretty just because it’s fun. I am going to impress myself, not anyone else, and it’s...
Why am I so restless?
I can’t seem to fall asleep until at least 3am. I stare at the ceiling and and try to shut my eyes, but they just won’t seem to stay that way. I can’t get comfortable enough, my mind is racing at a million miles a minute, and for some reason my body is just fighting me.
I usually sleep like the dead, on my back, arms folded on top of my stomach, unmoving,...
