Flashbacks 'R' Us

Wow! This is so weird. In the last three months I have managed to run into almost every friend that I have lost touch with except for maybe three. For those of you that know them, Anna Warren and Lacie Hexom say "Hi, hope that all is well." As for the rest of you...you know who you are...I now know I can reach you, now the question is where are you, how are you, and where are you going to be in October of 2007? I promise to check your blogs, but it would be nice to actually converse, even if it is via email/blog.
But, anyway, everything has been spring-boarded because an old friend of mine emailed me in hopes to borrow a painting I had done a while ago and I didn't know where it was, which led me to Sarah, which led me to the wonderful world of the blog and all of you. Then of course there was the Cobalt USITT booth and Anna, my friend from highschool moving back to my home town, Marlene Williams living just a couple hours away, and Tiffany Quinnette driving me home to Wisconsin in two weeks.
I hope that sll of you will keep checking my blog and I promise to try and post more often. I just want to let you know that I love you all and hope that you are well.
As for those of you that I don't know as well, the younger crowd specifically, if you ever have any questions feel free to ask. Good luck in all of your endeavors.
I get to work on scrim next week! Yeah!
Anyway, love ya and I will update soon.

Let the FUN begin!

As my first entry in my new blog spot I thought that I would give a general update to anyone who may be interested.
This is Lori Koeller from Appleton, WI. I graduated from UW-Stevens Point in December of 2004 with a BA in Design/Technical Theatre with an emphasis in scenic painting.
Now, if you are sure that you know me, feel free to continue reading on.
To update everyone, this is my life since graduation.
I moved back in with my parents in Appleton, WI right after graduation.
I worked as the floral department at the new Neenah Wal*Mart Supercenter for the entire time I lived at home. It was alright, but I am glad to have moved on.
Currently I am at Cobalt Studios in White Lake, NY studying under "the" Rachel Keebler and learning so much. It is absolutely wonderful here. If any one is interested, please feel free to check out the website, www.cobaltstudios.com.
I will be working summerstock at Timberlake Playhouse in Mt. Carroll, IL from May 21-August19 if anyone would care to look me up. Otherwise, I will be back in New York for one more year here at Cobalt before I enter the working world.
I would also like to let everyone know that I finally met a guy worth keeping and am engaged to be married. Who knew right?!? His name is Allen Wayne Sapp, Jr. ("Wayne" for short). He is absolutely wonderful and I couldn't be happier. The wedding is on October 13, 2007. If Nikki, Sam, Andrew, Laura, Connor, or Leah read this, please contact me so that I can properly invite you.
That is all I have for now folks. Love ya lots, and hope to hear from some of you soon.
