Durata Del Dramma: Life Of DramaHave you ever told yourself that you're done being nice to people? Have you ever felt that you didn't want to deal with drama in your life anymore? Are you a person who claims to hate drama, but seems to find yourself in it at every turn? Then you are not alone. Olivia felt that way, too. How is it, that drama became the catch-phrase of the moment-and how is it that everyone seems to know what it means? When it comes to drama, Olivia knows it. One bad mood and a car crash later, Olivia finds herself having to re-live the drama of life all over, in a very unconventional (yet trendy) kind of way. Join her as she relives the tales of love and lust, money and sex, and ponders the meaning of life through the sympathetic ear of a total stranger. Powerful, personal and controversial, Olivia "tells it like it is" as she relays her experiences that many people can identify with, but would never admit to. You may laugh, you may cry, you may strongly disagree-but you won't feel alone anymore, and we all need that from time to time. |

Whether it comes back to me or not- the only time I can look myself in the eyes while gazing into a mirror, the only time I can hold my head high and actually like myself- maybe even love myself-is when I do for others.
