Change.

Well everyone knows that life is always changing.  I'm going through some big changes right now and it isn't easy.  Thankfully I have the best family I could ask for and some amazing friends and the cutest puppy ever!  I also have karate which is such a great outlet.  When things change all you can do is focus on the good and what you want to change in yourself.  So I'm going to continue and try and pursue my acting career, and also possibly modeling.  I want to volunteer more, because every time I do I feel so much better about myself.  I want to exercise more because I used to left and workout a lot more than I do now and I loved it.  Unfortunately this ridiculous cold that has gotten ahold of me will not leave!!!!  I slept for like 11 hours last night, crazy.  Sometimes when you're sick you can work out so I'm thinking maybe a walk with the puppy will help a little bit.
I'm also reading Tracy Morgan's autobiography which is random but I like it so far.  Very interesting story.

Darius Rucker helps.  And my very comfy leather couch.  :)

Getting Motivated

Wow what a week it has been.
I think the funniest part of my life is that I look forward to Mondays.  Monday is my WEEKEND baby, all I have is karate for an hour but the rest of the day is mine.  So backwards.
Speaking of karate, it has been going great.  The funny thing is that I almost never want to go, its at 7pm and I'm usually just too lazy.  But I always make myself get my butt moving because I already paid for the classes!  Haha.  But seriously, that's my hard earned money.  The only problem is that I seem to have come down with a cold or sinusy something and it is making the week a little tough!  I am exhausted and when I do jumping jacks my head starts to hurt, but I think doing some exercise helps a little.
Last night was an intense workout, one of the kids in my class had to sit out the rest of session after the first half. My back is super sore today, but I love it!!!
It has been a pretty crazy week.  I started making tips on my tables at work which is pretty awesome because every night I go home with moolah in my pocket.  I really am liking my job too which is weird to me.  Maybe it is the money or the fact that I get to socialize with people or maybe it is because I come home in a better mood than I go in with (which might be because I go in nervous).  Maybe it is all three of those, and it is closer than all my old jobs!
What else have I been doing... Last Thursday I woke up at 5am and went to the Get Motivated seminar downtown.  It was good, but not exactly what I expected.  I was up in the upper deck and I was sick the whole time so it wasn't too great.  I did end up sitting next to a man who produces movies which I thought was crazy!  Fate!  So we'll see if that connection ends up going anywhere.
Then on Friday I started shooting "Neurotica: After Dark" a short with some people from the Compass Film Academy.  I was on set all day Friday night and in the morning on Sat. The shoot went well and I was pooped afterward, but of course right after I had to head to an audition!  No news yet but you know that any audition is better than no audition.
I finally had some free time on Sunday night and I saw "The Adjustment Bureau" again on Sunday with my Dad and sister.  That is a GREAT MOVIE!  You should go see it!  GO SEE IT!!!  Matt Damon is amazing as usual and Emily Blunt is amazing and the screenplay is great.
After a few hours of nothing the past fews days I finished off my week by cleaning out my closet and then this morning I did ADR for "Save On Calling" one of the shorts that I did last fall.  It was my first time, but it was awesome!  And I found out I was a natural... not too shabby, especially since what was estimated to take two hours took me less than one.  Booyah.

Now I am sitting here with my cute puppy and watching Scrubs because I am POOPED!  I need to shake this cold soon and hopefully the sun will come out and warm me up.

Reading back on my entries from recently is so interesting, do you notice the ups and downs?  Crazy.  Now I'm sick so I'm gonna go ahead and keep being lazy ;)
Peaaaaaaace.

Hi Friends.

Hi friends!
It's been about two weeks... and they've been STINKY!  I have pretty much been avoiding doing anything acting related because I've been wallowing in a pit of self depression.  It was a good time.
THANKFULLY I got to see Ryan two weekends in a row and that helped a lot.  Especially since I was taking out my frustration and sadness on him which was straining our relationship.  Long distance is hard, but he is worth it!!!!  For sure.  Ugh.  Why can't something just be easy?
Well at least my new job is pretty good so far.  I work tonight and I think I might actually start making tips!  Woowoo!
Other than that I've just been trying to get over my ughness and right now I'm enjoying the positivity that I have.  I'm just working on trying to save some money and pay off my bills and not be SO EMO!
Yay!!
No emo.
