Thanks so much!!

I wanted to wish a happy new year to everyone, with my sincerest hope that an abundance of good fortune finds you all in 2013.

Another busy year has gone by, and as most I find myself reflecting back on it. I met a longstanding goal of mine back in May when I graduated with my Bachelor's degree in Liberal Arts. Sometimes it felt like it would never come, but it did. I am immensely proud to have something to show for many years of hard work. I also attended the premiere for the first movie I have ever been in - the Avengers. I am also happy to see what a success it has been and am more than proud to have been a part of it. A new niece came into my life in April, and has been growing like crazy and putting a smile on my face just like her other siblings. Youth is far too fleeting.

I have made so many new friends this year, and had too many great experiences to count. But I have had my share of bad luck, anger, tension, tears, and regrets. But I'd prefer not to look back on that at the moment. We should always remember the good that would not be possible without the bad - for they each lie on their own side of the same proverbial coin.

I hope more good will come this year... I have so much planned. And again, my best to all of you in 2013.

Here I thought things would settle down a bit after graduation, the Avengers premiere, and Colossalcon. But no, life continues to move along at an increasingly fast pace. I have been working very hard these past few weeks to ensure that a new costume will be ready to debut this weekend, and before that - this friday will be my return to the old Ohio State Reformatory in Mansfield, Ohio for another overnight ghost hunt! I'm very excited, and this week has seemingly crawled along because of it! One other costume is due to be completed soon as well, and I'm already in the middle of plans for at least two new ones before the end of summer. And lets not forget Star Wars Celebration 6 coming up in August!

Colossalcon up in Sandusky was SO much fun this year! Was able to hang out with friends old and new, and even made a field trip with a few to Cleveland for a special Avengers photoshoot where we filmed the actual movie almost a year ago! Hint - that event has give me the final push to tackle a certain new costume...

Sadly, amongst all the good there is the bad. Mainly drama. It seems to be at an all-time high. Drama at work. Drama with friends. Drama with family. I can't seem to escape it... and I feel as though slowly but surely its running me into the ground. Not all of it, but a few things/people in particular. And I feel awful because I've always been the one who is there for my friends, and that I do everything in my power to help. But what are you to do when someone throws aside any advice you give, is set on the fact that nothing will ever be right again, and continues to prod you for answers? I'm spent. I don't know what to do anymore, and it seems to be eating away at me.

I'll just continue to focus on the sun and hope the storms will pass...

Its been a LONG time since my last update - Nearly a year! And what a busy time it has been... As of this past Friday, I am an official college graduate with a bachelor's degree! Its been a long time coming, and its still so unreal to me. I look to the future with hope, curiosity, and more than a little humility. It will be difficult to find something in this economy with a horrible job market, but at the same time, I have a good feeling that there is SOMETHING out there waiting for me.

Another big thing that occured over the weekend was the premiere of the Avengers movie in theaters! For those who don't know, I had the amazing opportunity to be in the movie, which I gladly accepted. And yes, I did make the cut! Look for me in the Germany scenes - walking into the museum on the red carpet (black gown, gold/green wrap, and long blonde hair), POSSIBLY an interior shot (I have yet to confirm), and outside when Loki has everyone kneel, I'm directly to his left! Its so exciting to see that all the work we put in last August has finally come to fruition and its becoming a larger success every day!

Costume-wise, I have a few new projects in the works, and a few cons planned for this summer. Ghost hunt-wise, I've had the opportunity to visit the old State Theatre in Sandusly, Ohio, which was amazing. Looking forward to a return visit. And another overnight trip to the Mansfield Reformatory is planned for June again.

So all in all, its been going well so far, and I hope I'll have much more to share in the coming months!

Amd even though its late, RIP Titanic on the 100th anniversary of your sinking.
