"todos pueden ayudar brindando su grano de arena" I honestly don't understand the whole "Napoleon Dynamite" craze. "Theatre is a safe place to do unsafe things that need to be done. When it's not a safe place, it's abusive to actors and audiences alike. When its safety is used to protect cowards masquerading as heroes, it's a boring travesty.

Well, I think I've definitely mellowed out a lot over the past couple of years. Still like to try anything...and everything...once. Sometimes twice! I am loving living in Chicago again after my 2 1/2 year hiatus. Not quite the wild, party girl I once was, but trying to get back into it!
- Courtland
I'm a pretty easy going person who likes to sit back and relax. I rarely make plans for anything more than a few days advance; I like living my life more spur-of-the-moment whims rather than knowing what I'm going to do all of the time. You could consider me quite the minimalist, I tend to accumulate as little stuff as possible (both emotionally and material things). I'm terrible with names but always remember faces.
