About Me

You might be thinking who is Helsinki?And why is she trying to move to New York City?


 Well that's me. And yes, the glasses are fake. I'm a twenty-one year old college graduate, who is trying to find her way into the business of the performing arts. I went to Dean College in Franklin, Massachusetts where I got my B.A. in Dance. I love being on stage and all the work that goes into it. Which explains the reason for this blog. I am attempting to move to New York City to pursue my dream. I started this blog in the summer of 2009 as a way to document my summer at the Alvin Ailey Summer Intensive program, but wrote maybe all of three entries. I then redirected my blog the following year about moving to New York City....which is what I am still currently trying to do.This blog serves as the collection of all the insanity it takes to move to the Big Apple. In my attempts to keep my wits, I write about all the amazing experiences I have and some of the not-so-amazing ones too. Well, that explains New York City, but what about Helsinki? What can I say? It's a nickname from high school due to my strange interest with the country fo Finland. So from time to time you may see me refer to myself as Helsinki or Sarah, what can I say old habits die hard.
