December '18

Whether they be quotes, pictures, experiences, ideas, or lessons learned,

here are my top most memorable moments from the month!

Moments of the Month

8. A Christmas Carol opened and ​closed! This was probably the most difficult show I've ever done in regards to the emotional toll on the cast and crew. One of the cast members, Jadon Jenkins, passed away unexpectedly and everyone felt the effects of his absence. But this cast came to-ge-ther to continue this show and honor his memory. They were so strong in the face of adversity. It was truly a sight to behold.​

7. Went to dinner at the Cheesecake Factory with my parents for my Mom's birthday.

6. I got to help a friend organize and minimize some of her clothes and items. Aaaaand I got to meet up with a middle school buddy I haven't seen in many years!

5. In addition to making a few good friends with some of the cast members, I filmed a quick short with three of the kids from Christmas Carol titled "For the Love of Mac N. Cheese." It was pretty goofy.

4. I helped my younger sister with a grad school essay. We were laughing basically the whole time.

3. I watched "The Sound of Music" with my Mom; It brought back a part of my childhood and I loved it.

2. I was asked to work as Wardrobe Supervisor with VSC but then was offered a nob at the Barry Robinson Theatre as the director's assistant. It was a tough decision and even though I could have grown in both jobs, suffice it to say

1. I recorded a cover of Ariana Grande's song "Almost is Never Enough" for my December YouTube video and it turned out better than I'd hoped. The video also got a good bit of attention to my surprise. It was a lot of fun to make!
