WOW! Where did summer go! I can't believe that I have done so much (and still haven't posted pics urg!) But one day I will! I promise! Though it's not my fault I took them on my phone and I'm lazy. Well since my last blog I was in two Productions, Don Giovanni and The Marriage of Figaro. I had a blast preforming these roles for the first time. It was amazing and I shall always remember the experience. Now while doing this people seem to always ask what school I go to and who is my teacher, and of course I give them my answer of going to Juilliard and what no. But they always seem to either forget or for some reason they don't see me going there and I would love to know why! ha Some say it's because I am an African-American. Though I don't think this is the case. Others say it's because they think I belong somewhere else like Curtis or Oberlin. What do I say you ask? I DON'T CARE! As long as they like the show! haha I mean why I would like to be associated with my school. I don't want to be defined by it. I mean really. What good would that do me. The "black boy from Juilliard" hmph I don't know but it's a bad rep. sorta. ha well enough of me ranting. I need to sleep. It's 1:02 a.m. for christ sakes! ha
I mean, there are generally not many African-Americans in the biz comparatively speaking, but it's still weird that people would single you out as the Black guy from Julliard. There are plenty of Black people there. Wtf.
