It's been awhile, hasn't it? I had some activity the early part of the summer, but then Governor's School happened and before I knew it I was moving into UNCSA. I've been looking forward to both experiences for years, deeply hoping I would be accepted to each program. The fact that UNCSA is now here, and indeed, Gov School has come and gone is surreal to me. It is in one sense, and in another, it's just life now. Every morning I wake up in my dorm room and learn my craft from some of the very best theatre artists in the world. I get to do what I love with other people, youth and adult, who love it, too. I will always be thankful for the frien

Hello, everyone. I hope your lives and art are coming along well. Mine is, and I would just like to recommend a Deviant friend of mine to the rest of you. Her username is TheQuietActress. I have seen the most amazing artistic growth within her in the last year and think you would really enjoy witnessing it yourself. Her profile is here: thequietactress.deviantart.com. I first did this over two years ago and as I was looking through my deviantArt history tonight, realized it was time to do it once again. My hope is that not only will people check TheQuietActress' work out, but also be inspired to share favorite Deviants of their own. Make a j

Either way, I really appreciate the support you've given me thus far! :) 
Thank you so much for the fav on my poem "The girl in the pond" :D It is highly appreciated, and I am very happy you like it! :D I really enjoy acting myself, and do a bit of amateur stuff when I get the chance, as well as LARP's :D It is indeed a passion for life! If you intend to go pro with it, I deffo wish you the best of luck :D
Thanks for sharing the piece! It was a joy to read. Thanks as well for the well wishes. I do intend to pursue a professional career, obtaining a BFA in Acting during college, then entering the industry. It's going to take a lot of work, but I've been doing various projects for eleven years now, and it always has been. I wouldn't have it any other way. The rewards are just too sweet.

I was surprised to see on your profile than Danish is your first language. I must say, your English is very good!
Thank you very much, and you are very welcome :D And I should hope so, or I would have wasted four years at the Univeristy, studying the language :P I agree that the rewards of the work simply are too addictive to let go, in spite of the hard work that comes before :) Hopefully, I get to join more amateur performances! It's just an undiscribable magic that comes with being on the stage :D
A young man after my own heart .. I too have an amazing love for the theatre, it is where I grew up, and would spend all my time ...

My greatest experience was going in to the theatre with a couple of mates after hours... we would improv, and swear, and smoke cigarettes whilst writing all over scripts .. screaming passages from King Lear like we owned it! Honestly people talk about losing their virginity, but there is nothing quite like the first time you lose yourself in a character on-screen-or-stage ...

Wow, don't know where that came from!!

You have a very nice gallery ... will definitely take a closer look at it when I get time.
