Updates

i haven't updated in a few weeks. I have to tell you, some days of been good and other days are not so great.
This week I had three amazing meetings. One for my  internship and two for my volunteering. The first was with my new mentor, Andrea Beverly. She's pretty awesome. I even walked out the door with some new reading material. :).
The next day I had my meetings with the Black Theater Workshop alack Theater Workshop was first. They wanted me to help out with the opening night of Raisin in the sun, but I'm in Toronto that week (can't wait to hit my sweet home Ontario turf!)
But there is opportunity to even work onstage in their next production as a mover, which is  cool. I'll definetely be working with their next production if I can. :)


My second meeting  was with Infinitheatre. They  gave me some work right away, which I did on Friday. I walked down Monkland Ave in the Notre Dame de Grace area and asked store owners to put up posters or take some pamphlets. Some of them were really nice. Some of them weren't. I got the job done though. Only six posters left. I kind of want one.I also gave them my new Theatre Resume. Abigail, the woman I spoke to put me on the agenda  for their staff meeting the next day to see if I can work in house (in the theatre). She was very impressed with my resume and said that I would definitely get into Concordia for Playwriting with a resume like mine. That was encouraging.

On a more melancholy note I've been feeling lonely at not myself. I'd really like Camp Hannah to be here. Happy, fun, encouraging, all those things that people from camp tell me I am.
I don't feel like I can be that here. I feel more like high school Hannah, desperately trying to get someone to listen to all my crap.It's a gross feeling.
I'm working on it.
I went to a Messianic church this morning (Jewish christian, though "gentiles" are welcome) 
 It helped. And my family just called.
I feel like a giant suck most of the time. Things have been great for me since the blood clot, but I seem to have fallen on hard times. The money issue scares me because I want to go to university next year and I don't even have enough for this year, really. My parents are helping me, but I just...
whatever.
This blog is called A Life adventured, not here's  The Most Depressing Thing Ever!
Here's some better news.
I entered the CBC literary awards in the poetry level. Grand prize is 6,000.
Wish me luck!

I'll try to post more this week.

TTFN,

Hannah
