2007 - A New Life!

[sandragonfly1]

(warning: this is formerly gina's ark inc..)

yes, am already back.. such a short break huh? :p I left my old username, there were so much bad 2004, 2005 & 2006 luck under that one.. so, am changing to this new username - sandragonfly - it feels more like me, you know how it is struggling to crawl in, under the sand of the life but flying colors!! beginning off a new life. I realize it was sad and missed leaving 30+ of my friends over a very few vipers. :eek: I guess I was too hurt with so much what went on to live up the happiness and homelessly. then there was a huge misunderstooding between a good community and us but all that had been cleared up now. now I know what community truly means, and I'm much happier, carefree now. thank god for awesome friends and technology! :)

I know I'm back sooner than I thought but I thought I'd update you all - recently, I found us a home! :D :D it took us pretty a while, faster than we thought. we all are satisified with this nice large hardwood studio (it looks like a bedroom apartment really!) and importantly it has a lot of securities here too. all are doing well as usual, especially veryvery happy to be back on raw specials!! a big relief for me as well.

lately I've been so busy, our big comedy/hilarious production I'm a stage manager for is coming up in two weeks, a lot of techies, lightings, effects and settings to check out, prepare still - a lot of fun, learning many new things. my winter quarter will be over in three weeks already.. :eek: also, if someone remembers this, dance & dream (http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?t=119850) - I made it in!! one of 28 performers - more dancers, the more merry - yay!! plus, I'm getting things ready for miss deaf new york pageant competition, that too, I can't wait!! sooo nervous but soo looking forward to!! exciting, experiences and all .. http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b127/mystichild/pinkgrin.gif http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b127/mystichild/pinkgrin.gif

before I head off to dance rehearsal now, I must say thank you again to each of you for your constant support and understanding PMs ... it was overwhelming to respond all. now you all got me stuck here, impossible to be a stranger, trust me. ;) anyway, I hope all is well with you too! ((((hugs)))) back later..

..gina & her ark

OMGosh! I'm so happy to see you back! I know me and you never really new each other much on PT, but now that you are back I want to get to know you more and visit your threads.

It was very sad for me to see you leaving, I used to read some of your posts and replys and I always thought that you were such an amazingly nice person. I am sooooooo happy you're back!

And it sounds like everything has turned around to be very happy! I know when things go really wrong in my life I always try to force myself to think lots of positive thoughts and it usually works. Just yesterday I got my first speeding ticket, I was pretty upset and hate that my pay is going to be gone like the same day I get it, but I am trying to think "its only one pay, I'll pay it and will get another pay" and its working, I'm a pretty happy person today!:D

Well Gina once again I am so glad that you are back, found a nice home, and also got into a dance contest :eek: That's absolutely awesome! *I Claps for you!*

And you are right. PT Members are not just strangers, alot of them can become such dear friends that you rely on everyday just to talk to:)

Welcome back for a great year in 2007!

[JenBKR]

(((hugs)))) I am so glad you are back Gina! Congrats on everything that is going well lately! We sure missed you!

[pitc9]

Glad you made it back!
I hope 2007 turns out to be YOUR year! :D

[Donnaj4962]

Hey there Gina.... and WELCOME BACK! I am glad that you decided to make 2007 your year.... and it sounds like you are on the right track!

Congratulations on all that is happening for you so far! Enjoy your time with our family that is coming to visit!

Looking forward to more posts from you and your "Ark"!

[sandragonfly]

haha.. we can't vote that way. the points will be judged by my four parts on the stage in front of 500(+?) audience.. :eek: even thinking about that, I'm deadly nervous. :o the contest is coming in one and half months! plus, still a lot to do!

aw, thanks everyone, you and your words are sweet to read.. :) I love you all! I'm sure I'll be sharing pictures as soon as I can. oh, tomorrow is friday! so...that means it's my free day. :D well, except from 6 to 10PM, technie week, performances are coming up soooon.

Can you please tell me more about this pagent?? I have a cousin in NY and she has a few deaf friends - not that I want to take anything away from you, but I think they would be interested in this pagent.

Please tell me more about it! Where in NY? When exactly? And WHO to contact.

Thank you!

[sandragonfly]

sorry! I've been SO busy with incoming performances this week, getting everything ready and preparing for my three final exams...as you can see what time it is now. :o the whole last weekend my mind splitted (and is still splitting) in every place where (30) actors, voice actors, crew, technicians, designers and director need me! I never realize until tech/dressing rehearsals recently is superbusy.. we're getting there, the first performance will be tomorrow night! hoorah.

anyway, um, video.. not sure if I'm allowed to have one myself but I'll bet you some pictures! I'll be sure to share some pictures after. :) the first performance won't be until in second week of may. hey, some of you who live near here could come and watch us!! :D

oh catsnclay, too bad! it'd be better if we could have had more contests. bad news is, the deadline passed - 1st of february. if you still want more information about it, PM me okay?

thanks, absolutely I will give crayola a hug, and thank you everyone!! ((((:)))))
