Thrill of the Hunt

Had a job interview yesterday. I don't want to jinx anything, but it felt like it went well to me. It would be a really fantastic opportunity if I land it- it's close to the apartment, the hours they are looking to fill are convenient, and I think it's something I can really excel at.

I should hear something by the end of the week- they're doing interviews throughout the week, and said they would like to make a decision by Friday.

In other news- my improv class starts next week. I'm so excited to dive back into the pool.

I really can't do too much exploring and wandering because I don't have surplus cash to be spending on fun times and trying new things. So just as soon as I have a job I'll have some moneys, then I'll be able to get out and have some fun!

To Do, Ta DA!

So, I'm here. I'm (mostly) unpacked. I've started looking for jobs.

Most importantly for my heart and soul- I'm registered for classes at DSI.

BACK TO COMEDY. BACK TO IMPROV. BACK TO WHAT I LIVE, LOVE, AND BREATHE!

I'm excited to be here. The puzzle pieces are all falling in to place. I'm just about there. Not 100% but the pieces are assembling.

I'm really happy here. Yes, I miss my friends in Buffalo- but the day to day? Not so much. My mom and I still talk every day, nothing could change that! I miss my cats. Here though, I'm eating better, I'm working out every day- I'm job hunting, and I'm throwing myself back into improv. Nothing could make me happier than that.

Farewell Buffalo

I made a little video to bid adieu to the city I grew up in.

Goodbye Buffalo

I'm sad to be leaving- but I'm so excited to be embarking on a new chapter of my life, I can hardly contain myself.

At the beginning of this year I made a promise to myself. (Call it a resolution?) I wanted more than anything to change my life for the better. I wanted to get my health in order. Get my diabetes under control, get my thyroid properly treated, exercise more, eat better. Now that I have those things on the right track- I can focus on my personal life. I want to be a better daughter, a better sister, a better friend. I can't change any of the past- but what I can do is change my attitude, and change how I approach the future.

David Sedaris wrote about how he was told to quit smoking he needed to change his entire environment- move away, or redecorate. So he moved to Japan. Well, I don't need to quit smoking, but I want a fresh start. North Carolina is my blank slate, mostly. I started changing in Buffalo- and those small changes I made in Buffalo I need to hold onto here- and I need to build on them. I'm excited. I'm ready to build on what I've started.

Moving Day on the Horizon

It's really really really happening! I have an actual departure date! My official move to North Carolina is happening May 12th.

I have a million things to do before then, and I don't even know where to begin.

Shocking I know.

Love,

Kate

March Already?

Greetings Darlings!

So- I have one foot in North Carolina, and the other still in Buffalo. (Such long legs! First and only time in my life that I believe I will be able to say that!) I was so happy to be able to be in North Carolina for the Improv week of the North Carolina Comedy Arts Festival - do some volunteer work for DSI with Zach Ward et al. Currently back in Buffalo, have some doctors appointments and things to settle and clear up. Fun things like that. I still don't have the program I need to update this site, which is a little bit awkward, since it is still very much under construction, and I need to update some things (such as my no longer working for Sweet Tooth). So that's about all the news that fits the print I suppose. Just keep on keepin on.

Love,

Kate

Ch-ch-ch-Changes

Hello All!

So right now I'm in the midst of a wave of change in my life- one aspect of which is that I've upgraded my computers, and am currently without a copy of Dreamweaver, so I can't update my site. I'm no longer working at Sweet Tooth. I'm going to be moving down to Cary, North Carolina in the next month or so- and I'm super duper excited about it. The plan is to find a job and begin working/studying at the Dirty South Improv company.

It's All Happening!

Love!
Kate

January!

So some shake ups going on in casa Harlow right at the moment. My direction is pointing toward North Carolina, and plans are in motion to have me move down to the Raleigh area with my father. This would be a huge move for me, and a very exciting opportunity. SO fingers crossed!

Woah, it's 2011.

Greetings Internetland,

I really need to catch up on this whole website thing. I hope everyone had a lovely holiday season, and I wish everyone a lovely new year!

With Love,

Kate
