Hello,
So I've been doing good....last week I worked a TON, but this week its a lot more chill cuz rehearsals are starting to get more intense. So this week I have rehearsals every night for about 3 hours instead of work for 12/14. Which is very nice. Rehearsals have been going great...MJs having fun too. During the week we're rehearsing our acting parts, MJ is the nurse and a logjammer and an audience member, I'm a logjammer, "arm candy", and an audience member....we really dont have too do much but its really cool to be doing other stuff, not just dancing. :) I also get to hang out with my roomies a lot more this week cuz I dont have to work...its so nice! lol its like I live with these ppl and I get to see them?! WOAH what a thought! lol so yeah I miss them a lot, we went out to dinner together last night I think for the first time as just us roommates.
This Thursday I'm auditioning for Royal Caribbean's Hairspray show. They have 2 ships that have a full length performance of Hairspray, so yeah. Will auditioned today, he didn't make it, but its SOOO much harder for the singers cuz they audition for specific parts, so that means they are only looking for TWO people for the part he's auditioning for in the World!! So yeah I think its a lot harder, as a dancer I think it might be easier cuz we'd just be part of the Chorus/Company. :)
There's also an audition for Stiletto on Thurs and Friday, if I can make it to the one on Thurs after the RC one I want to do that, b/c my friend Cemily is coming to visit me on Friday!!! :D and Teanna is coming to visit Sam on Saturday! (I was in Monster Stomp w/ Teanna) So yeah I'm really excited about this weekend, and seeing my friends and stuff. :)
I absolutely LOVE my life here every day I wake up and thank God for the direction my life is going, its Perfect here. I love NY SOOO MUCH!! k anyways...
I miss you all like CRAZYYY!!!
Love,
Kelly

Hey everyone!! I just wanted to tell you about my first rehearsal today!! :D It went SOOo well!! :) The ppl i work with are so much fun and VERY talented!! We started the first dance which has a bowling theme...lol It's me one other girl, and a guy and thats it. I get a few special parts....the choreography is very fun. :) MJ is in the show with me!!!! They needed more dancers so I recommended her and she auditioned and made it! :) I'm really excited!! It's going to be a lot of fun....I get a short comedy bit with one of the other dancers and an actor...its really funny...i'm playing a really bad actor. :) it's great! So yeah tomorrow/today is valentines day and i have to work :/ which really sucks. Cuz they're anticipating it to be very busy but its prolly not gonna be and ALL the servers are working, so we wont get very much money. :\ oh well...it'll be fun, i guess. Cemily and Starr may come visit at the end of the month....i'm really excited...but Starr will be with her school choir so I'll only get to see her for a bit....but yayy!! I miss all my friends SO much!!

hi everyone! :D I've just been chillin...nothing too exciting working some, Sam is all moved in, and we are having a blast together! I love my roommates! We get along so well! we watched the superbowl on Sunday, and I went grocery shopping and did laundry on Monday, Tuesday I worked, and today was supposed to be my first rehearsal for 2 Gentlemen of Lebowski, but it started snowing like crazy this morning so it got canceled. :( i was really disappointed, I thought NY was supposed to be beast, not like VA. lol oh well...i got a day off and chilled with Will and Sam, we went to a pizza place. We tried to install our wireless router but failed...we tried like everything...called everyone in the world but nothing was working, so we're sending the router we got back, and getting a new company. Cuz it was just ridiculous! lol I'm not sure if I have to work tomorrow or not, but if not I think I'm going to go to Tagine anyways cuz they're having a fire twirling belly dancer! I met her yesterday she's gorgeous!! and really nice!! So yeah that should be fun. :) My next rehearsal is going to be Saturday...so I'm really excited about that. MJ is going to audition for the same show tomorrow, cuz they needed more dancers and I referred her to them, so they asked her to come in!! :) I'm really excited...we'll see how it goes! Will and Sam have a few interviews coming up for some jobs...and we're all taking dance classes and everything. So yeah I'm extremely happy! I love my life and everything thats going on here in NY! :D I'll do this a little more often, but nothing too much is going on! so yeah!! Love you ALL!

Hey everyone!!
Sorry its been a little while just been SOOO busy!! This weekend was CRAZY!! well Friday Starr came in town and i picked her up in the morning...and we spent all day trying to get to the east side for her to visit marymount college! lol it was a fun adventure. we kept failing! but oh well....Then we walked around Times Sq a little, then starr went to stay with MJ for the night. Them me and Will went back home to get ready to go out for his bday, kayley came over to meet us and we tried to find a good karaoke place we could go to. He didn't know what we were planning, so we found a place and surprised him! it was really fun! :D we ate food and sang songs a chilled it was really nice. Saturday I had an audition for Two Gentlemen of Lebowski. The audition went perfectly i knew I had it. and the dance was SOOO much fun! :) also Samantha moved in on saturday...well she brought all her stuff. lol she had SOOOOO much stuff!! it took her 2 days to move in. She was pretty stressed and tired saturday night we told her to go sleep with her family in a hotel and not to bother with anything that night....but MJ, Alan, Starr, Will and I were just chillin in the apt so we put the couch together ourselves! :D it was really fun. Sunday Starr, MJ and I went to a ballet class, it was sooo good! :D i really needed it and want to go again. Then i had to work. It was pretty busy for a little while and then it died down and i got out by 12:30 which was really nice, starr came for the last hour or so and hung out with me, and then went home with me....I brought her to the train station this morning, and went to work. Will and Sam came and visited me at work, it was really nice, it was Monday so it was really slow, and one of the guys at the bar found out Will was a singer and Will sang a couple songs for him! :D Samantha is all moved in...she has a QUEEN sized bed!! so you cant really move in her room...its kinda silly....but she likes it so its all good!! Sam's going to sign the lease tomorrow and we pay our Feb rent woo!! I had to set up an account with the company that handles our utilities today.

So about the show I'm doing...I got the call Sunday night that I got the job! :) Its pretty much "What if Shakespeare wrote the Big Lebowski" and I guess it's going to be HUGE like all the shows are already sold out, and ppl are flying in from sweeden to come see. I think there are only 4 other dancers w/ me...but i could be totally wrong...but if so, thats awesome!:D I dont really know too much info about it....but Rehearsals start next week and we have shows every Thursday-Sunday March 18-April 4th I think. BUT....today I found out that I miss read the audition form and I'm not getting paid for it. :( blah that really sucks because I don't know how much I will be able to work at Tagine. But we will see, it is definitely a good opportunity and will open doors for me, so I think I'm still going to do it. :)

yayy!!
