It's all coming together! I have been busy apartment hunting, and now I'll be busy packing, but I wanted to post so my friends and family know that

I'm Happy!

I start my new production on Tuesday, and I move (hopefully) the weekend of March 5th. I really feel like I'm starting to come into my own. I'm really proud for once, too. The things that I've accomplished, one by one, never seemed to hold much weight. I have always been onto the next goal, onto the next project. Never time to enjoy what I've done, and certainly never allowed a pat on the back (sound familiar, Rina? hehe). I'm not sure why, but this big leap is triggering a sense of achievement, a sense of pride.

I feel like I've done these things on my own, like this life is my own, and I'm doing a pretty good job.

Of course, I have had lots of help on the way: the support of my family (mom sis tios tias primos primas dad and abuelita); the aid of friends/co-workers like Shane, Donny, Jeanne, Ju, Jared, and Barry; the love and encouragement of Adam and Rina.

You have all listened to me bitch and moan. I know I use this place to vent my negative feelings a lot.

But this time I'm here to say that I'm incredibly lucky to be a healthy person, with good friends and family, having fun and being continuously presented with opportunities to expand my horizons.

I'll stop now before you all throw up on your monitors, sick from the jubilation.

Thanks guys! I'll keep you posted on my new adventures. I'm sure I'll have lots of complaining to do about moving, the Gas Company, and my commute to Burbank for the two weeks until I move.
