I am getting ready to write....

Not just the blog either. It is an overcast Sunday afternoon and I am feeling very inspired to write.
That could also have arisen from my show ending and some bad news on the family front.
BUT nevertheless, I feel like writing.

I will fill you in though on how things are going.
The show, my show, went well! It was a lot of fun! Thursday night (opening night) we had the largest audience, on Friday we had the best audience and probably the best show (in my opinion), and on Saturday we had the smallest audience and the lesser good of the shows. We had more mistakes on Saturday, but only we knew. The other cast members were on top of helping each other out and this kind of show...no one would have been able to tell where the mistakes were. Overall I was very pleased with it and am very glad I was apart of it!

One more week to go, three finals, and then I am off to Vegas. I need a break. School is really good but it is time to take off and relax. Then again, with my family, relaxing comes in its own fashion. Relaxing is not sitting on the beach listening to the wind (anymore)...now relaxing is knowing that things are calm and comfortable even when things are chaotic. I do have a feeling that the two weeks I will be home will be plenty. It's not that I don't love my family, I do with all my heart and soul. I, to much of my parent's dismay, have become more independent. Also being home can be stressful, especially when you have certain issues going on, you have a history of a sister not getting along well with others, and you have a family member who isn't what they used to be and you cannot do anything about it. It is life though. And they are my family and I will always have them, their love and support, and things can only get better (hopefully...if I keep saying that one time I will be right).

I just have to stay faithful, both to my family and God, and I have to not worry as much and, instead, just live my life and worry about things pertaining to me...such as finals, when I need to do laundry, and getting to class on time.

I am rambling now and I know if I keep talking like this Kristen will worry about me and I don't want that.. I don't need to be worried about, I am fine. Just having a moment. It will pass. I know you only worry about me because you love me and I am so blessed to have so many people who love and care about me. Thank you all.

Amanda just got off work and we need to write a critique on a show we saw. So, I am off.

I will write more soon!
Bon Appetit!
