So...I just taught my last acting class at UIUC. Yo...I just taught my last class as a grad student?!?!? Crazy!!!!! Bittersweet indeed. I've been truly blessed to have taught these amazing students! I'm a better actor because of them, a better person because of them. God used them to constantly remind me of why I love doing what I do. There were many days that I needed that reminder. Not going to lie, some "Thug Tears" were shed when they presented me with a list of all of my quotes throughout the semester. Wow, they were truly listening. Wow. I'm going to be alright. I'm going to be alright. #searsly #RaffealsNextChapter #ProjectGetThatMFA #ProfessorSears #Proud #humbled #ButGod #ThugTears #TrustingGod #Jeremiah2911 #UIUC #UIUCMFA2018 #BrothaBTeaching #BlackTeachers #StayInIt #MommaIDidIt
