One year anniversary

Happy Anniversary!
It's been one year!
Wow... I can't believe it.

Today is Friday, May 25th.
Exams finished Wednesday, and today was the last day of the film screenings.
I've gotta say, it's pretty neat seeing yourself on the big screen of a public movie theatre downtown Prague.
Today is graduation and a school party.
Also, my little sister arrives :).

So for the month of April, we had no classes so that we could focus on our films.
I was originally a part of seven projects, but one thing led to another and I ended up with zero.
But that's the business.
So I took the opportunity to travel instead.
Check out this video to see my travels:
"When I'm not filming..."
Slovakia, Germany, Greece and Poland.

It's funny how things work out though, because as soon as I got back from a month of traveling, I had two big productions.
Everything happens for a reason.
And God is good.

So the beginning of May was a 6 day shoot on location in a Czech village two hours outside of Prague,
and then a two day shoot underground in a cave about an hour outside of Prague.
Very privileged to be a part of both.
Also in May, up until this week, we had classes and eight exams.
Phew! Busy.

And now...
I most likely leave Prague next week, although I have a possible independent film in Prague.
I'm waiting to hear the shooting dates.
But regardless, I'll be back in Ohio in June and looking forward to working with my agency and visiting with my family for the months of June and July.
Then I'm in a pilot that's shooting in Ohio in mid August.
And then... the big news...

I'm planning on moving to LA end of August.
very scary, but very exciting.

I prayed about it a lot and really felt back in March that God was telling me it's time.
Thank you for praying with me.

It is now Sunday, May 27th.
My little sister is here and
I have officially graduated [with honors] from film school in Prague.
And humbled with being presented Best Actor.
Wow.

What an incredible year.
I can not believe how quickly it went by.
It sure is bitter sweet leaving.
So many wonderful memories, experiences and people here.
But I'm thrilled to see what God has in store next :).

Thank you for praying and coming on this journey with me.
This is the final update, as it is the end of the year.
I may send an prayer update out once in awhile,
but not every month ;).

God is good all the time, all the time God is good.

May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
