Back in LA

The rest of my trip was great. I went to see "Spring Awakening" which won the Tony for Best Musical this year and it TOTALLY deserved it! It was so well done. The music was great, the acting was great, the lighting design was fabulous and I love it!

I hung out with all of my old friends and I visited all of my old favorite places and I even got to see my old doorman! :) I wanted to go to the Hell's Gate Bridge in Queens but I ran out of time so I will have to go there first next trip. I am super relaxed and ready for things to get busy acting wise in LA. Everything starts back up after the 4th of July and I'm ready to go!

Les Miserables

I made it safely to New York City and last night I went to see Les Miserables. It was so magnificent. I have wanted to see that show on stage since I was in 8th grade so I really enjoyed myself. Earlier in the day I met up with a friend of mine who I met doing the play "Hair" years ago and I went out for coffee with another friend of mine. I spent the late evening at Mr. Bigg's bar on 43rd and 10th singing karaoke. When I lived in NYC I went to Bigg's every Tuesday night. It has been slightly remodled but it is still a great place.

Today I spent the 4th of July with my best friend from high school at my best friend from college's BBQ. We got up to the rooftop to watch fireworks over the East River just as it started raining really hard. It has already been such a great trip and I have two more days to enjoy:)

HAPPY 4th OF JULY!

Blast from the past

After spending a wonderful day with my parents I went to dinner at Texas Roadhouse with my grandparents. After dinner, we drove through my old neighborhood in Ohio and I saw the house that I used to live in! We also drove by the elementary school that I attended until the end of 4th grade. It was really weird seeing everything and I had a strange sense of deja voo. Some things were changed but other things looked exactly the same. I leave my parents house at 3AM to go to New York City:)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY

I flew to Ohio to visit my family for my Daddy's birthday. I hung out with my sister, both sets of my grandparents and my parents. We had a great day, went to lunch, my Mom made an AMAZING cake and then we saw some fireworks off in the distance.

I will be in Ohio for one more day and then I am spending the 4th of July week in New York City. I will post blogs every chance I get!
