Wahoowa forever!!

Last night was a blast!!

I'm currently the Events Chair for the UVA Entertainment Los Angeles alumni club, and last night we had a huge cocktail reception to honor the head of the acting program at UVA! It was so much fun!!

It was at the Library Bar at the Redbury Hotel in Hollywood. Let me tell you...what a fun crowd!

I always love getting together with fellow HOOS from LA for a big celebration. We even had some actors who graduated from UVA attend. Remember Ryan Atwood from the OC?? Yep...Ben McKenzie came and so did Sarah Drew and Jason George from Grey's Anatomy. Also, if you remember the movie Save the Last Dance...Sean Patrick Thomas, one of the stars of the movie, came to the event as well. They were all co-hosts of the event because they studied under Richard Warner at UVA.

Events like these remind you of how blessed you are to have gone to such a great university. There is such a sense of community and enthusiasm when UVA alums reunite.

Richard gave an amazing speech during the event. And what really stuck out to me was when he mentioned the 3 R's - risk-taking, rejection and resilience. Those three words are so important, especially when you're living in LA and trying to follow your dreams. When you're passionate about following a path in life, knowing that the 3 R's are inevitable will help you reach your goals.

So to say the least, Richard Warner is a very inspiring man, and the event itself was definitely a success!

Pics to come!! :)

WAHOOWA!!!


Always have faith!!
