I'm on my way... :)

So I'm half way through my second week of school....AND I LOVE IT!! I've been on air more than I can keep track of, and my reports have began to be podcasted! I love being a news reader, researching and creating stories to read and pulling audio! I can't wait to do this for the rest of my life :)

AMAZING things happen when you least expect it!

So this is my final weekend in the city - the move is on Sunday. I decided to spend my final Friday at the Blackhorse, listening to Mum and Rick. Before they got up to perform, I feel a tap on my shoulder and out of nowhere appears the man who taught my film workshop course last summer at Trent. He asked if I still had my 16mm film I had created (it was a scratched film, coloured with Sharpies and set to Donovan's "Sunshine Superman"). I said I did, and he asked if I would be interested in having him show it on my behalf at a Film Festival. Of course I said yes right away, because honestly, how often does that opportunity present itself? And then he told me where the festival will be taking place...

NEW YORK CITY!!!

I did a bit of a squeal, and a bit of jazz hands. I still can't believe it!! Who knows where this could go for me! New doors are opening up all over the place - it's so amazing! Needless to say, after he left I proceeded to do my own rendition of Ashlee Simpson's hoedown jig...things are looking pretty good at this moment! :)

And it begins...

So here it is, my very first blog post. I'm currently sitting in my mom's lazyboy in her purple living room, surrounded by all my stuff that I'm trying to sort through before I move (and clearly, I'm failing at it). Yes, the big move is this Sunday - I'm not scared, but to be honest, I'm not too sure what I feel about it at all. Maybe as it gets closer, something will change. Till then, I shall have to hip wade through all of my shoes. After my move has been completed, I plan on using this blog to share my experiences at school - both educational and recreational. Expect to see reviews, photos, and other fun stuff I come across in my journeys. Let me tell you, I can't wait!

Until next time....
