Well, once again, as you can see, I have gone away into a Voice Class bubble...or better yet into the Void, which has been a quite the key word from class for the last few days. All that is possible in the void. What inspires you in the void to speak. Sorry if this doesn't make any sense to anyone, but perhaps writing that down is just for myself. Perhaps not?
In any case, the void has been in part, as a result of me choosing to specifically focus on my voice practice in the last few months by taking two sessions of Voice Class in a row. To say I am excited by the discoveries and connections I have learned would be an understatement! And, I am thrilled by what is to come. For the first time, next session I will be taking both voice class and acting class at the same time and I eagerly await the possibilities that will unfold. I hope to share with you more consistently in the next few months about this part of my journey.
A few other things have also occurred in the last few months that have kept me busy.
In April, I went to New York City and had a wonderful visit with my friend Meghan of megiswriting. Meghan had just moved to Park Slope in Brooklyn which I had come to know quite well when I lived in NYC because I babysat in that neighbourhood often. To spend 5 days then in Brooklyn when it appeared Spring was truly blossoming all over, with all the girly time my little heart could desire was just so special. If I figure out how to transfer my pics from my iTouch to my laptop, I will post those for you soon.
Also, at the end of April, Whitney and I went to visit friends in Edmonton for a few days and had such a beautiful, relaxing visit. It was only a few days, but it left such an impression on me. Our friends were such wonderful hosts, who just happened to have a beautiful little boy who I may or may not have fell in love with instantly and tried to sneak into my luggage!
As an aside, this was the farthest west in Canada I had ever been...isn't that crazy? Vancouver is calling me next I tell ya!
Next comes May. In my next post, I will tell you all about what I spent all my focus on in May. Truly a life altering month for me. Details coming soon...
