"O brave new world that has such people in it. Let's start at once."

Oh how time has past! Virgil stated the truth, that "time flies never to be recalled." I would say that accurately describes the past four years of high school and my subsequent gap year-and-a-half. It's the end of an era, and the start of a new one. From high school to college, from adolescent to adult, from baby steps to big leaps forward. It's time to make my way in the world, and to start, I am embarking on a new, college journey in Pittsburgh, PA!
That's right, I've moved to Pittsburgh! Packed up the car, drove to Pittsburgh and moved into a cozy, little, 20th floor dorm at Point Park University. Here, I will have the great pleasure & privilege of studying at and pursing my interest of all things costume related in the university’s prestigious Conservatory of Performing Arts (COPA). Already within the first week, as a Technical Design & Management major in the Theater Production B.F.A program, my passions have been supported with my costume shop apprenticeship and first technical assignment to wardrobe in The Bluest Eye. I couldn't be happier!
So what does this mean for the future of The Young Sewphisticate? The question has been asked several times whether or not I will continue to write in college...While originally this blog was created with the intention of keeping track of my internship, it has morphed into so much more - a visual portfolio, account of my sewing successes and shortcomings, a space for virtual interaction - and I firmly intend to keep writing as long as there is interest.
Though the blog may become quieter with a theater and college class intense schedule, there is always plenty to write about! I definitely want to document my costume shop apprenticeship, and update with what I am experiencing at the Pittsburgh Playhouse. Personal sewing projects will also still be making appearances whenever possible.
I am just so ready to learn and to try new things, and I hope that all of you readers will continue to follow and let me know how I'm doing! Ready to stitch together new memories?
