A Deeper look into Mime was published in 1986 and is located in the Southwestern College Library in Chula Vista, CA as an Independent Study. In this year of our Lord 2014 this same author/writer will take another look into Mime after 33 years’ experience working and teaching Mime. Most people are curious about why Mime? I always say “I think Mime picked me”. After raising my family and working as a hairdresser for 20 years I decided I wanted to be an entertainer. In my 36 years I had dabbled in dance and acting. (I think I am being a bit modest here!) I signed up for singing class at Southwestern College in Chula Vista, CA and one day while quenching my thirst in the student union a gaggle of Mimes appeared. For some reason, I really cannot explain I got really excited. Not just a little excited but over the moon excited. I kept asking the Mimes questions like. What is this about? How can I find out about this? Naturally I got no answers and then finally one of the Mimes brought the teacher Professor William Virchis over to me. I think I was following him out the door after he informed me that I could not enroll until the next year. (I had to wait a whole year - What?) Mr. Virchis looked into my eyes (into my soul) in the door way and said: “Not only are you going to do this, but you are going to be great at it”. I felt like it was a God Moment. I don’t know if that is a clear description, but it was a spiritual connection I had never experienced before in my life. I was hooked on something I knew nothing about and excited about the new door that I had to wait a year to open.
