The Diploma Shot

I’m sure you’re wondering about the title of this post. I will explain I promise. But, it’s a long story that culminates in me holding this beautiful piece of paper that I received in the mail not that long ago. But, that’s how the story ends. I figured now was as good a time as any to make this post. While I technically walked in May, my diploma didn’t come until August…which means I get to celebrate it now according to my university…and I’ve been holding on to this post for a while. Bit nervous to post it. Ok. Now. Let’s start at the beginning.

2012: A Year of Adventure in Review

| Directed By Bex

An update to this blog is way overdue. My apologies for not doing it sooner. For now, I start by saying that 2012 was a year that was everything I wanted and more.

There and Back Again

| Directed By Bex

So, I’ve not been very good at updating…which is honestly not surprising. Not at all considering that I’ve got an enormous amount of schoolwork to do this semester, a show that is taking up all of my free time and a part-time job. Yeah. Not surprising to anyone that I haven’t been good about updating or talking about my plans.

Well, in case you haven’t already gathered, Geoff, Esther and I went to the U.K. to visit Chelsea. It’s a trip that we started planning back in August when Chelsea left for school. It finally came and so, here I am updating about my trip. Sorry this is super long.

Here we go!

Sherlock Is Coming Back!

| Directed By Bex

Over this past summer, while I contemplated whether grad school was the right decision for me to make and tried to figure out what exactly I wanted to do with the rest of my life, I was introduced to the BBC’s Sherlock. It quickly became my absolute favorite show. I don’t think I’ve ever seen something where the characters, cinematography, score and script swept me up the way this show did. It actually reminded me of what I want to do in life. Work on film and television sets.
