Text of the page (random words):
nce the fatal car accident i wasn t sure how to cope with this tremendous loss in my life but as this year continued to move forward her tragic death became much easier to understand i m blessed to have the things that came my way after enduring this event i thought at first that this loss would have adverse effects on me i was wrong she has taught me so much this year and she isn t even physically present in my life anymore it s quite perplexing to know a kindred spirit left you but i know she is still there as a guardian angel she was strong which makes me strong she was wise which helps me believe and appreciate my intellect she was caring and forthcoming to anyone and everyone she crossed paths with which i find myself to appreciate the value of friendship and family on a much deeper level now i thank her for everything she helped me realize in my life heidi has made me a better person as an actor i m confident in my abilities even though i have and will have doubts i know you will always be there cheering me on being the biggest advocate you always were i will do what i love succeed at it and never let anyone tell me otherwise i know what my calling is in life and my burning passion for it only grows larger with each passing day i miss our laughter there are a plethora of times i wish i could call you right up to tell you amazing news or get advice from you because you always knew just the right thing to say i miss our crying fits we had together when we just needed that time to vent i miss when we would argue and get pissed off at each other because in the end we both knew it wouldn t last long we loved each other too much i remember the frivolous chatty nights we would spend talking about boys and being ridiculous we never judged each other maybe poked fun but never judged you are my kindred spirit heidi and always will be i love you and i love your daughters equally to pieces my mantra for life heidi s legacy posted by ben royer at 4 02 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest friday october 19 2012 busy busy busy i would have to say that the past few weeks have had a creative flare attached to them i ve done so much in such a minuscule amount of time which shows because i ve not posted something new in over a month it s hard to believe a month has past since i had a minute to sit here and write my thoughts out in fact it s quite baffling to know that i ve been 21 and back from d c over a month too man does time fly anyway i ve back and i m looking forward to updating all of you here we go i spent the first half of october in rehearsals lots of rehearsals i also got to visit and spend time with a good friend melissa loper it was wonderful to see loper and be the host for her and her girlfriends who got married in new york yay these girls were a breath of fresh air amongst my busy schedule so i tried to cram an excessive amount of activities into a small amount of time the friday night they arrived we went to the restaurant my roommate works at on federal hill a world renowned street that tourist come from all over the world to see called sienna it was a great place to spend the first night and enjoy authentic italian food and drinks together the next day we went to boston and spent the day anytime i have a chance to go to boston or new york i take it so i was completely enthralled by the idea of making a day of it we saw a good chunk of downtown and i took them to legal harborside a seafood restaurant that i thoroughly enjoyed the first time i went but they weren t too impressed with it oh well next time i ll try a new place after we came back to providence that evening i took them to the last waterfire of the season boy was i lucky because i love to show waterfire to anyone who comes to town they loved it i was glad they did it made up for a lousy dinner at legal however the next morning i redeemed myself by taking them to julian s on broadway i love julian s so i figured they would too i also knew the menu catered to vegan eaters and food allergies and loper was the first person that came to my mind when i discovered this restaurant months ago it was a great weekend i m hoping i can entertain them again someday in the future loper and i made the trip back to kansas this week i spent under 24 hours in kansas that was the fastest trip through my hometown i have ever taken it was a pleasant drive though we got to stop briefly in new haven so i could see yale s campus if i could attend yale for my m f a in acting i would auditioning for that school is something i am contemplating we ll see what i decide to do once my senior year roles around at ric after we left new haven we drove to pennsylvania and stopped for the night even though we almost got lost in new york with very little gas long story haha once we woke up we hit the road immediately making our way to chicago loper has two good friends in chicago who are writers and they wanted us to read two plays they re working on so we were all for the idea and a place to crash for the night as we were driving i enjoyed the colorful and vehement scenery of pennsylvania and ohio with it being autumn the trees and hilly mountain passes we drove through made the first half of the trek bearable which wasn t the case for iowa and missouri at all ugh i don t miss driving through those two states and loper is a force to be reckoned with when she wants to be home especially after driving 24 hours to get there that was a very humorous scene to watch these next few weeks are going to be just as busy with rehearsals for my next show and legally blonde going on simultaneously bring it on ta ta for now until next time posted by ben royer at 2 44 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest tuesday september 18 2012 washington d c i have a new appreciation for my country after visiting the capital this past weekend my profile photo on facebook is of me staring out the window at the capital building from the library of congress the saying a picture is worth a thousand words is unbelievably true the experience as a whole was very uplifting but the library alone moved me to tears when i walked in i have no words for the emotion i endured it was such a vibrant place to be standing in i m a proud american i miss d c terribly i ll be returning in january for the presidential inauguration though i can t wait peter and tom were absolute gems the best hosts anyone could have asked for i had a blast thank you for everything you two on another note busy couple of weeks ahead let s go i ll have a longer blog post soon i promise posted by ben royer at 12 05 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest friday september 7 2012 david patrick green i met a professional actor by the name of david patrick green months ago who has worked on a few major series such as er battlestar galactica csi etc he is one individual that definitely gave me the inspirational push i needed to move forward with my acting career we spent an hour and a half chatting tonight and i can honestly say i m too thrilled about joining his site hackhollywood this decision cultivated from an idea into a serious consideration in a matter of a few months david took the time to explain to me in a brief overview the business the professional acting business thank you david for giving me your time i m excited to see what awaits me as i go through this new material available to me let s get started on another note legally blonde is going well can t wait for the final product in just a short month things are where they should be i m very blessed and truly thankful posted by ben royer at 8 14 pm 1 comment email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest sunday august 26 2012 the next step last night was the conclusion of suburbia i cannot believe it has come to a close so quickly very bittersweet as that chapter closes i find myself reminiscing in the fond memories i ve created with the cast crew and directors they will be surely missed i hate goodbyes so it isn t a goodbye only see you later on to the next project legally blonde i have to say that today i feel content a feeling i try to continue having because to me this is true happiness internal peace with what the present holds we can control only one thing and that s the present so i m here embracing every moment of it looking back on this year i m amazed at what i ve gone through in such a short amount of time this year has truly been a test of my faith in my ability to plow through the wreckage from beginning the year with no hope the idea of what i was going to possibly do about work a place to live and waiting for a year to pass to return to ric seemed so insufferable now seven months later i can t believe i m saying that i ve made it through personally i ve grown up so much between truly finding myself which is a continuing project in some ways and becoming more independent and being okay with it which has always been a struggle for me i ve found a groove that won t be tampered with i m on fire and i m ready to tackle my return to ric let s do this four months left posted by ben royer at 8 38 am no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest monday august 13 2012 peace of mind i watched eat pray love today for probably the tenth time i am in love with this movie a lot like how obsessed i am with harry potter but more of that on a later date anyhoodles the reason for choosing v day for those of you who don t know this is a holiday that no one knows about except those known as rhode islanders to watch this movie was due to a conversation i had last night with my friend amberlee perry we discussed politics life spiritual growth and practice and the meaning of understanding fundamental truth although i ve known amberlee for a brief period of time i feel that our friendship blossomed last night into something much more than just a platonic and mediocre relationship i would say without a doubt that this relationship is something we both can cultivate from i look forward to continual heart to heart conversations with her in the future thank you amberlee for being in my life because you continue to teach me just as much as i teach you today has been a mundane type of day for me i m being productive though or at least trying to be i m about to continue reading an autobiography by a profound man by the name of howard jacobson he has and will always be an inspiration this man is the epitome of what it means to be successful in the correct and healthy way success is found within i read that once somewhere and i loved it another saying that i came up with that really describes this man is the simple philosophy that it s not what happens to you but what you do with what happens that makes the difference in other words being proactive instead of reactive i can t take credit for that one howard expressed this phrase and i loved it too since we are on the topic of profound people i must give a shout out to one of my best friends robert anthony because he deserves some recognition i would not be here today if it weren t for him and i mean that from the bottom of my heart he has stuck by me through rock bottom and for that i m eternally grateful for his generosity compassion and patience with me thank you robert i look forward to our new york shenanigans in october in light of mentioning eat pray love i felt that i should quote a monologue from the movie that is tremendously moving so here it is a friend took me to the most amazing place the other day it s called the augusteum octavian augustus built it to house his remains when the barbarians came they trashed it a long with everything else the great augustus rome s first true great emperor how could he have imagined that rome the whole world as far as he was concerned would be in ruins it s one of the quietest loneliest place s in rome the city has grown up around it over the centuries it feels like a precious wound a heartbreak you won t let go of because it hurts too good we all want things to stay the same settle for living in misery because we re afraid of change of things crumbling to ruins then i looked around at this place at the chaos it has endured the way it has been adapted burned pillaged and found a way to build itself back up again and i was reassured maybe my life hasn t been so chaotic it s just the world that is and the real trap is getting attached to any of it ruin is a gift ruin is the road to transformation liz gilbert eat pray love posted by ben royer at 2 39 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest wednesday august 8 2012 contentment today is a day to reminisce in feeling accomplished i have a plethora of projects that i am working on but for this moment i m content things are beginning to turn around mold themselves into something magnificent and take shape i m truly looking forward to the next few months as i embark on the journey to finish this year i cannot believe 2012 is dwindling to an end and i find myself not trapped not angry not disappointed but simply appeased by my tenacity although things have been excruciatingly hard for me in the past year i have nothing to say in lieu of those events except that i m grateful for them because without pain without suffering and heartache without knowing who you are and not being insecure i would not be in the place i am currently at god knows and is apart of me i thank him everyday of my life or at least try to and i have to remember that i m on a path that s been set for me i will enjoy this journey or at least make the best of it i know what my calling is so ben let s take it for what it s worth i have to remember what this feels like because this is how life should be lived each day counts not tomorrow or the next day and definitely not yesterday or even last year today that is all you have control over so embrace it the good the bad and the ugly suburbia opens in a week from friday and it s hard to believe it feels like just yesterday when we began rehearsals i ve had such an amazing run with these folks i hate to see it end i ve grown closer with each person in the cast and they feel like family to me i will miss them when it s time to say goodbye that s the negative thing about theatre thank you for everything guys it s partially because of all of you that i feel so accomplished today i ve grown so much as an actor and person too with you guys and i feel you all deserve some recognition for that so thanks for everything come see suburbia it s an amazing show with such an unbelievably talented cast directed by a talented actor himself you don t want to miss this posted by ben royer at 8 21 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to
