We are desire. It is the essence of the human soul, the secret of our existence. Absolutely nothing of human greatness is ever accomplished without it. Not a symphony has been written, a mountain climbed, an injustice fought, or a love sustained apart from desire. Desire fuels our search for the life we prize. Our desire, if we will listen to it, will save us from committing soul-suicide, the sacrifice of our hearts on the altar of "getting by." The same old thing is not enough. It never will be.

Merry day after Christmas. .

So it's time for a new post I suppose..

I just got back today from a little Christmas " vacation" to Florida to see the family and celebrate Christmas..It was nice:) I was suppose to leave this past Saturday but because of all the fabulous snow up here I didn't get out until Monday.. which worked out great..

Speaking of the first snow of the season here in the city was amazing- it was so beautiful :) Really glad I was here to see it! Snow just makes NYC even more fun:D So anyways back to Florida.. got down there Monday and didn't have much time to do much aside from visiting with family.. sad I didn't get to see most of my friends this trip:( hopefully another time! I did get by to see dear Brooke and had some of her fabulous vegan muffins and food..mhmm.. yum:)!! Christmas was nice, I got Final Cut Pro 7 for all of you non- MAC users or anyone not into movie/editing its this sweet movie making program thats used for movies like Avatar, Benjamin Button.. and numerous others. It's some serious editing I'm so excited to use it- now I have to think of a movie to do so I can get editing:)

It's always really strange to me going home, It's like I feel outside myself or something.. like it's not where I fit, which I suppose is good since I live up here! I love being up here and Im really glad to be back here:) although it was raining today and my flight was slightly delayed but all is good now:)...

I can't believe it's almost 2010.. so many good things to come.. Looking forward to spending New Years Eve in Time Square this year to see the ball drop live.. thank God Time square is like 5 minutes from my apartment so after all the fun I can go home and sleep!! Then I'm going to take a train to D.C. January 1 I believe to meet up with a friend for my birthday January 3:) Then The Rachael Ray internship starts January 5 and then Stella Adler classes start January 11 along with online college. WOOH lots of stuff but I'm so excited:):) God is so good:)

Well Im out for now- going to play with my final cut for to many hours haha..

Hope life is treating you good:)

In Christ,

Kris

So it's been a while hasn't it?

I haven't really had to much time to update lately. Let me try to recap the last bit of life..

So I'd been going to Strasberg for acting but Im now going to be starting classes at Stella Adler, which Im really excited about, then doing college classes for communications online, and also the Internship. I got my schedule for the Rachael Ray Show internship and it's perfect.. I work Tuesdays, and Wednesdays ( which are both shooting days- woohoo) and also information about what I'll be doing their, so much stuff but so exciting!

I went By borders this week because Gene Simmons from Kiss was going to be there it was awesome he walked like right by me haha. I also went to a little holiday party at FFT and go to see Charlie- which was great:) Life is so great:)

I was suppose to fly out to Florida today, but we got our first snow in the city today!! Lots and lots of snow:) so much fun. ha I'm flying out Monday and then coming back Saturday:) So a couple of less days, which I don't mind- because I'm excited to get back up. 2010 is going to be a great year- I know it:) New years eve ball drop in Time square should be fun to:) crowded but fun..

haha anywho that's about all right now, loving life up here:) gonna relax watch movies and the lovely snow from my warm apartment:)

In Christ,

Kris

Its Snowing!!

So exciting! It feels all like Christmas now. Watching Christmas movies, watching the snow fall from my apartment, hot cup of tea, so gorgeous:) The city is all crowded and what not with tourist this time of year and it is pretty cold but being in New York City during Christmas time is worth it :)

Let's see - to sum everything up since my last post. Life has pretty much been amazing. Really loving the church I'm going to in the city, such a blessing:) School has been good and fun like always. Im starting 2 other college courses next semester and I think I'm still going to attend Strasberg, along with auditions, plus I got the internship at "The Rachael Ray Show" !!!- I am extremely excited, It seems unreal, I really have always admired Rachael Ray and the experience and the contacts I'll meet working on the show will be amazing. God is really opening up some doors and its really amazing. God is always amazing though even when things aren't so great! It is more fun though when things are great;) haha. I'm really looking forward to starting the internship- it starts January 4 - a day after my birthday ( best present ever!) -

Also me and a friend who lives in Virginia are planning to meet in Washington D.C. for a day of fun:) I'll take a train up there pretty early - excited about that:) Then going home December 19- December 26 for Christmas, then New Years Eve in Time Square woot woot. Man, life is so exciting if you allow it to be:) Life is an adventure- you really never know where you'll end up or what you'll end up doing, just enjoy life, live it for God and things will always fall into place I believe:)

I also went to this AMAZING vegan bakery downtown- "Babycakes" it was such a cute little bakery with some delicious desserts - all healthy/vegan. So yummy. ( of course nothing tops Brookes cooking:)} that was a fun little subway trip:) All the Christmas street markets are all set up for Christmas time (central park, union square) so I'm hoping to do a little Christmas shopping their this week! that seems to wrap things up. Going to watch some more Christmas movies:)

In Christ,

Kris
