So actually quite a bit has gone down the past fews days. Remember how I did two auditions on Saturday? Well, I got a call-back for one of those auditions! Success! No, seriously-success. Because as an actor, call-backs are the best way to map out your success rate, not casting (if you want more info, please ask. But just trust me).
I also did another audition today for a cute new original show about vegetables. Not kidding, but it’s really cute. Hopefully I’ll get called back to Spring Awakening because that’s what I really want!
Hmm…I did a job interview today for a boutique, whoop-dee-doo. And I’m still watching excessive amounts of How I Met Your Mother. Right, so maybe I’m still a tiny bit lazy. But I have sooooooo much free time. All I do is cook, apply, interview, prepare for auditions, then audition. On days I’m not doing that, yes, I am walking around this nice new city. But some days I wake up, have a meeting at 1 and decide I’m going to watch How I Met Your Mother.
What else is going on? Not much, just trying to figure out a routine for now til I get a job, waiting for the rest of my stuff to get here (thanks extremely expensive and filled to the brim moving van. See you in a week and a half), and looking for things I might need after the moving truck gets here. But I’m not buying anything until it’s here and I know what I have/what I need/have the money to do it. All I have right now is grocery money.
I guess this is why people don’t leave their home towns. Or their home states. Getting a new job, finding new places to shop and eat and hang out. Extreme heartbreak (yes I’m still sad, but I’ve been better the past few days). So go me for taking a chance, being brave, hopeful and perhaps a little stupid. Oh well, that’s what life-changing decisions are meant to be!
I like to think about the people who left their home towns on the east coast and crossed unknown mountains (2 sets), rivers, grasslands, badlands, etc, all in covered wagons while dealing with a shitton of the unknown.
ReplyDeleteIt makes me feel like if they could do it, I can do it.
P.S. Sometimes when I'm sad I stop being sad and be awesome instead. True Story.
