My father died of prostate cancer, two people I am close with have had breast cancer, some have had colon cancer, others (more) prostate, ovarian, and what not…
Here’s the difference in...

Let's Yes, And Life... How About That?
I just read an article in the Financial Times that made me angry first, and then smile. Seriously, some people just don’t know how to Yes, And life. How sad.
In this article, Simon Kuper goes on and on and on about how Paris would be a perfect city, if it weren’t for the Parisians and their rudeness. He talks about the codes of the city, and its past, and how it has created a complex...

It's Hard to be a Feminist
Don’t get me wrong - I am a Feminist. I’m an activist. This will never change. I’ve been a Feminist since I was like 3; as far as I remember knowing that I was a person with female parts.

I Think That Was My Last Harold Audition and Here...
iguessillkeeptrying:
I started this blog a year ago after Harold auditions. My message then: “I guess I’ll keep trying.” That carried me to these Harold auditions. It’s been a year and that won’t work for me anymore.
To be clear: What I’m Not Saying:

I’m not angry at UCB or upset about...
