After a Month-Long Break... otter chaos.

Hey everyone!

It's been a long while since I last posted - I took a break in January to focus on acting in La Ronde here at Virginia Tech. I am blessed to work with a fantastic cast - come see it! It runs through February 11, at 730 every night!

Besides that, my last semester at VT has started off well. My class schedule is relatively challenging, but easy to get through. I'm applying to law schools and jobs. Oh, and occasionally I have a social life.

Really, this semester thus far has been about figuring out the rest of my life. I'm on the brink of the 'real world,' as they call it... and I have no idea where I'll be a year or even six months from now. Should I be nervous? Sure. But I think I'll be ok.

I tend to revel in this kind of chaos. Otter chaos.

The Secret to Success

Hey everyone! It's been a very long time since I last posted.

What's happened? Let's see:

I took the LSAT's again - hope to hear back soon about whether that expensive process payed off this time. Last time I did well, but I really want to improve.

I was cast in La Ronde, a show going up at Tech in February, as the Count. I think it's going to be a great show! Remember that other show I was in? "Almost, Maine"? La Ronde is like that, only German and sexy.

I also went to the ACC Championship with Mary - it was a good trip, despite the loss to Clemson. BUT VT IS SUGAR BOWL BOUND!

There was another tragedy at Virginia Tech. A shooter killed a police officer during a routine traffic stop, and then went on to take his own life. The officer was Officer Crouse. He leaves 5 children and a wife behind him. The shooter was a Radford student, who had committed armed robbery several hours before. Responses to the shooting have ranged from sympathetic to Virginia Tech students, to incredulity that this happened at Virginia Tech. All I have to say is: We are Hokie Strong, We are Hokie Proud. Virginia Tech is a family, and we stick together.

The following Sunday (the 11th of December) I turned 21! Happy Birthday to me!

After that? I wrote 3 papers, took two exams, and am now home! My buddy Cody Oher is staying the weekend because he's in Spielberg's Lincoln in Petersburg, so it's good to see him!

And without further ado, the secret to success: (a swift kick)
