Today I am feeling I should be apart of the government in some way, therefore, I will be. But really, the snow is coming down hard here in the snow belt of Chardon, OH. and the eggs I devoured for breakfast have quickly been digested, making my stomach yearn for more food. I should fix that problem. Aside from my miniscule troubles of hunger, exciting things are happening!
I have been contacted by some girls also looking for roommates and a place in NYC, so we have been emailing and looking for a place, and hopefully a fourth girl. It is a ton of work, trying to figure everything out and seeing if we can make things work.. but I feel fairly good about the situation. We have decided April 1st is a good move in date, although I may have to push it to May 1st, but then again it might have to be even sooner than April. At the time it is very hard to tell. But the process of heading back to the big city is at work. I have been absolutely loving being home, but I am exciting for when the time will come, I am ready to get back on the ball with things. When it comes time to leave, a part of me will be extremely excited, but I know a part of me is going to have a hard time, even though I know more of what to expect this time, I think it will be harder to do it.. and maybe that is because I do know. Spending time with my parents, reconnecting with friends and mostly making some incredibly wonderful new friends and building new relationships is really where it is going to throw me I think. It will be hard to leave. But one thing I know is that the ones who are real will still be around no matter the location I travel to.
As for being at home, it is nearing the end of January. CRAZY! I had first expected to be back in the city but this time, happily I can say I'm not.. I freeze when I'm there in the winter. (Lydia and I conserved a lot of energy and didn't use our heat much..) West Side Story has its second weekend of performances starting tonight!! Opening weekend went absolutely swimmingly! Aside from a few things, but for the most part it went well. We got a great article written on it. http://www.geaugamapleleaf.com/ArtsTheatre/West-Side-Story-1-26-12 <<< Which will hopefully get people to come out and see it, I have a feeling this weekend already will be packed, everyone and their mother's cousin is coming on Saturday. Quite exciting!! It is SUCH a fun show, with a great cast, not a moment do I regret doing it, I only think how silly it would have been if I didn't. It is going to be very sad once it is over. But these last two weekends are going to be awesome!!! Also, I hopefully, probably got a job at Joey's Italian Grille!!!! I know it's like whooaa... big deal, (very sarcastic) but it is! I have been trying to get a job for such a long time, and no one will ever hire me. I have only babysat and worked at the theater. I finally talked to the manager and told her how it is and it went well. I am going in Monday to have an interview, so it isn't for sure.. but we will see what happens! I guess that is the exciting news of what it going on at home for right now. My piano lessons are going very well also.
School... I'm like.. DONE! I finished math yesterday with my Tutor Rosie Meek! Hallelujah!!! I may go back just to freshin up some stuff with it and to see her, because she is the coolest!! She makes this amazing cinnamon bread too! Seriously, to die for! Then I have British Lit, which I am basically done, I am reading Pilgrim's Progress.. except.. I can't really find it.. and I am reading plays which is an eternal duty for me to preform. Right now I am on Act 2 of Lend Me a Tenor, can't wait to find out what happens with Max! So basically I am done with high school! WHAT? That's weird. It's funny how much more I have learned in life than I ever have from a book or a classroom. Weird right? not really. Anyways, so I am basically graduated, the paperwork just needs to be done and I need my diploma! Brandon Douglass and I decided we should have a ceremony for me at the theater... stay tuned for that!
Big News... Now, this is where things really get exciting. First of all, I will start with my facebook page. I had made a facebook page a while back, but I never had much to put on it and it felt so silly to me, to make a fan page for myself. But recently some things have been happening and it was finally time to really get on the ball with it! It was posted yesterday around 12pm it is now 11am and there are 168 "Likes" yay!!!!! There is no doubt that the love and support I have is amazing! For many different reasons you need people backing you up and even if my number stayed at 168 I couldn't ask for better people! But NOW... for the reason this is all going on..
Back just before Thanksgiving I mentioned I was contacted by someone, whom I don't think I should release the name, but we met at the ARTS, 2 summers ago, and he found my info and contacted me, saying he wanted to get me some connections and all this really cool stuff! So, just that he took the time to call me, and we played phone tag a little bit, was AWESOME! He said he really thinks I have the potential and when he see's someone he is excited about he just wants to help them succeed. So.. after a while we had a few conversations and he said he making some calls and things, and I would always be really unsure about something or doubting things and then I would get myself in the right mind and realize I just need to let it go and pray about it all. "Cast all your cares on the lord, for he cares for you" -1 Peter 5:7 The lord would quickly answer my prayers of request for guidance, and often with a phone call from this guy! It was amazing. Jan. 23rd I was being a grump, and waking up to get things done and back in the swing of things after the awesome weekend of West Side, I cleaned, I ate, I accomplished things, and I started a new play, I began to doze while reading, laying on the comfy chair in the living room and slept for a good.. 2 and a half.. 3 hours. Once I woke, I felt the need to check my phone, it hadn't been with me all day. So I went upstairs and just as I suspected.. 2 missed calls and voicemails. One being from a Mikaela, and the other from this guy.. Lets call him.. Charlie. I was like WHAT? Why did he call, and dang it I missed it again.. So I listened to the message he had left... "Hi Sarah, I hope you had a great weekend, it is monday the 23rd. I wanted to let you know I just got off the phone with "Important Man" Who I was telling you about last time. He said he has availability, I got him very very excited, I've been having actually several phone calls with him about you, and he is very pumped to meet you. So This is great news! He said Friday, Feb. 17th he is available... and he goes on to ask if that works for me and other details. CRAZY!!!!! AHHHHH LIKE WHAT?!?!?!??! big deal.. soooooo basically I have a meeting set up with "Important Man" in Sarasota, FL. on Friday Feb. 17th! I might die... I can't give away much info about him but he is HUGE in the music industry, works with like everybody. It's crazy! So it doesn't necessarily mean that anything will happen, but the fact that I get to meet with this guy is HUGE in itself. So I am very pumped to see what happens, also quite scared.. like WHAT AM I GOING TO WEAR? and MY HAIR? and... what I really should worry about is what song should I sing.. awe man its troublesome. But that is the craziness that is going on for now. Charlie is supposed to call me today with more details on the whole situation and I need to read up on "Important Man" and start getting myself ready. It's 3 weeks away, but that isn't too much time! I am hungry for some business!!
The rest of my day will go as follows... After I post this, I will make a protein shake and read up on "Important Man", I will then go out to the building and discuss with mother some things worthy of discussion. I will email back the girls about roommate type things. I will then return inside, to change and go to the YMCA with Brandon, for workout time. We will then hopefully have time to grab some pre show lunch! I will then return home to take a shower so I don't smell, or rather so I smell lovely instead of horridly, I will get my stuff together and hopefully be able to squeeze in some time for some piano practicing! I will then drive over the Klein's house where Mik and I will be merry! Along with more of the Klein family. (Best family ever) We will then eat something, of deliciousness I am sure, then we will drive to theater, where the partying will begin. We are big on dance parties and just general all the time having a good time! I will then get ready for the show, and BAH PREFORM WEST SIDE STORY! Once that is over and we have taken our bows and greeted the lovely audience, its PARTY TIME AGAIN! Assuming we will go out somewhere (probably Cleats) for good time cast fun. After that I will hopefully return to my home and slither into my bed and sleep alll through the night!
Man I have a busy day ahead of me and time is slipping away!!! I gotta get busy!! So long for now!!!
