Welp…

Found out I got cut from the final edit of the University of Phoenix commercial.  Guess that means the world will not get to see my brilliance.  I acted all the way down to my feet.  Quite literally.  They shot my feet. Oh well.  Next time.

Hmpf

So I had a callback today. I thought that I did really well at the audition so it was nice to have a second chance.  This morning as I was getting ready, I was trying to remember what exactly it was that I did in the audition.  I couldn’t remember.  I couldn’t even really remember what I wore.  I was pretty calm on the way over then right before I was to go in I got really nervous.  I texted my boyfriend and he reassured me that I would do fine.  I took a deep breath and went in when I was called.  I went through the action once and then casting person asked me to do it again, but slow down.  I realized that I was rushing and talking really fast.  The second time I tried to slow down but I think that initial nervousness shook me up a bit too much.  I left feeling like I really dropped the ball and I’m a little upset with myself for letting my nerves get the best of me.

Resolute?

Great start to the year! I’ve been out auditioning every day since the beginning of the year and am hoping that soon I fulfill one of my new years goals by landing a national spot. I decided to make goals rather than resolutions this year, because honestly, I generally fail at resolutions by mid-January and have to reaffirm my resolution resolve at Chinese New Year. Having two new year celebrations so close to each other is definitely one of the coolest things about being multi-ethnic. That and the food.

But anyway…I have a few goals in place and am going to make a real effort to have them completed by the end of this year. No restart at Chinese New Year.

Although I reserve the right to a do over at Rosh Hashanah…it’s all depending on how things are going at that time.

Thanks, Santa!

The commercial shoot was yesterday! It went really well. I got ready, did my thing and was wrapped in about 3 hours. The crew and cast were all so sweet and encouraging, it made it really easy and fast.

After the shoot, I rushed into Hollywood for an audition and I’m hoping I’ll hear back after the first of the year. I thought I would be done for the rest of the year, but I have another audition today! Yay!
