8. and even though i am missing my va beach/hampton roads arts peeps harrrrrd right now (missing the 25th anniversary), i am so grateful for how The Governor's School for the Arts helped me break out of my shell, find and develop my talents, and taught me how to give my whole heart to whatever i pursue in life. thank you to the many faculty  members who gave honest feedback and pushed me into new experiences because they believed in me AND to the amazing talent of the students i was surrounded by every single day! it's incredible seeing how everyone has found to use their talents 9 years later. there's nothing that compares to my experience at GSA.
