It's been forever

Some huge things have happened since I last posted. I moved away from Charlotte to Atlanta for a few months to intern under a special fx makeup artist there. My father had a heart attack while I was there and then became an even bigger asshole. So, I left Atlanta and moved back to Asheville. I managed to pick up a wonderful boyfriend who moved from Charlotte to be with me here. After him living here for a couple of months with my mother and I we broke up for a month. He moved out into a house with a guy I used to work with and that he currently worked with. Well we get back together and then a month later Demetri shoots himself. We were the last people to see him alive and were also there when his girlfriend discovered his body. He killed himself while we went out to rent a movie and pick up subway. Pat and I are now living in a cute one bedroom apartment in the heart of west Asheville and couldn't be happier. I am trying to get more involved in smaller films here doing makeup. I have a production meeting slash makeup test all day tomorrow hopefully! I am praying that all my hard work with makeup will get me noticed on the west coast since we are trying to eventually make it out to Cali.

Update

I moved to Charlotte. I've been on my own for almost 7 months now. Working two jobs and still not making enough for rent. I have no clue what I want to do with my life. No clue where I'll be within the next 4 months. It's so hard to pick one thing to do for the rest of your life when there's so many choices. UGH.

Warped Tour and Zombies

I have so much going on right now in my life. I am working 6 days a week at the house. I've been trying my hardest to get the National MS Society a tent on the warped tour (which is slowly working out). The thing I'm most excited about is the chance to be an intern for a special fx makeup artist in ATL. I'm going to meet him next week. He said if I do choose to work for him that they are doing makeup for a film in Chicago this summer. So exciting. But, if I get the chance to work for the MS Society I am going to put the makeup thing on hold until warped is over. I cant wait to see how things unfold.

Quiet kiss on the mouth

Should I move to Charlotte or Atlanta? Charlotte has most of my friends. Atlanta has my father and more options for my future. ARRRG. I cant wait to see the This is Hell guys when they come to NC. ANNNNND Poision the Well. Sw33t. So much to think about. What do I do? I don't know. I have a month to figure it out.

everyone needs to go listen to this band...
