How do you measure a year??

Five hundred, twenty five thousand, six hundred minutes....
Yes I am mildly obsessed with Rent, aren't we all?

Hello again my little dreamers! Long time no chat. I was inspired to write this blog when a thought occurred to me earlier today. Its officially 5 short days until I start my dream course in college and I'm so excited, and I was thinking about where I was last year and how crazy this year has been.
This time last year I was starting in art college, I always wanted to perform but I never had the guts to actually make an attempt at it, so I settled for art. Two months in, I got to the stage that if I saw a pencil or a paint brush I would retreat to a quiet corner and bath in my own tears. I knew art wasn't for me and I felt so aimless and as if I had no general direction in life.

It was also around this time last year when my friend persuaded me to join a local drama group. Now, theatre was always something I wanted to be involved in but I was afraid of what people would think. Long story short, joining this drama group was the best thing I could have ever done. It gave me confidence as a performer and as a person. Over the year I have taken part in a successful play with this group, created and staged a musical, written and starred in a play which was featured in the Dublin Shakespeare Festival, and gone on several auditions and got accepted into acting college. I'm a completely different person now, and I never saw any of this coming.
This leads me to wonder where I'll be next year and what I'll be doing. It also goes to show that nothings impossible and don't let other people, or yourself keep you down.

So now it's over to you! I'd love to here where you were this time last year, where you are now, and where you hope to be this time next year. I'm challenging you all to make a list of goals and set out to accomplish them, and lemme know! So until I hear from you all with your lists, ciao for now and keep on dreamin'.

Guilty Dreamer..:)

P.S. Sorry, I couldn't resist throwing this in... Measure in love people! ;)
