Happy happy day!

Friday!
Today has been a surprisingly good day. I'm not exactly sure why. It could be the fact that I know I've got two payments coming to me. One for the week and another for babysitting all night tonight. But... I had to buy gas. And apparently gas prices went up over night. So twenty dollars no longer gives me an almost-full tank but a not-that-close-to-three quaters tank. Ugh. I need a closer job.

Another reason for my good day could be that I had an ice cream cupcake. It was pretty darn delicious and I think it may have been from Cold Stone because it came in a Cold Stone bag..? But it was good.

However, I do not think the cupcake is the reason for the joyness. Might just be one of those days.

So I did not enroll for school yesterday. My mom wants to wait until Monday. That just means she has to deal with mine and my sister's enrollment in one day. =/ But I'm excited about the school year. Rep Theatre is going to be fun. Although, I'm not sure how it'll go with all the drama nerds in one class together... Could be dramatic!! Ahaha *snort*

Speaking of snorting, yesterday I went to the library and my new favorite section is the Non-Fiction. So I checked out some books about different kinds of careers. They explain what the job is, what kind of people would be good for it, and how to get the job. So I was going through those books today and I have pretty much decided that I am going to be an actor. I know many people say that, but I'm dead serious. I knew I'd love to do it ever since the zombie movie (see Mom's blog for full details). But now I know I'm gonna do it! So this is how I'm thinking it'll go:
I'm going to get a steady job (crossing my fingers for Starbucks), save all of my money, and after graduation I'm packing up my things, jumping in a car, and driving straight to L.A. where I will probably live in a crappy house and have a crappy job before you start seeing me on the big screen. But trust me, it's gonna happen.

So now I'm all excited about doing this big idea. I want to make enough money so that one day I'll be able to buy a stable full of giraffes. I'm not going to buy one, I just want to be able to.

But that's in another two years. I've got some time. Which is a good thing!

Well.. I'm off to do some research and stuff...
Adios, muchachos!

  1. YAY you have a blog now! HAPPY!

    I love this statement:

    I want to make enough money so that one day I'll be able to buy a stable full of giraffes. I'm not going to buy one, I just want to be able to.

    :)

    That makes me smile.

    The only thing I can say about coming straight out here to LA is that it's INTENSE. You have to know what you're doing, and how to act for a camera (if you want film acting). The kids here at the acting school are trying really hard, but you can tell they have no idea what they're doing sometimes.

    So if you want to do screen acting, I would suggest talking to your drama teacher and seeing if there's a program somewhere around Wichita where you can go to that does an intensive workshop, or see if your teacher can do a whole unit on it.

    What we directors are looking for (wow I sound pro, even though I'm seriouslyyy NOT haha) is someone who knows what they're doing.

    We just had casting yesterday, and we saw a lot of girls who were sassy, cute, fun, and all that, but some were just like "O_O" deer in headlights or they were too over the top.

    We had one girl come in and say "Oh my god I don't know what the F*** I'm gonna do!" And all she did was cuss at us. It was so weird!

    Moral of the story: Be prepared.

    Hahaha wow long rant.

    Sorry about that.

    I just thought you might enjoy knowing a bit of Hollywood since I'm immersed in it right now.

    LoL.

    Well end rant.

    I'm so excited to see your rats you're gonna get and SUPER pissed at that cop lady. ughhhh. Sucks.

    WELL I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU. Clear your Sunday before school starts, because it's gonna be MINE. ALL MINE. =D

  2. Haha yes you ARE a professional extra! SKILLZ. =D

    I laugh at you because you laughed out loud in the library.

    I met someone here at camp that is a lot like you. Her name is Becky. I think you guys would like each other. :)

    As to films, yes I do get to take them home. I don't think I get them immediately (I think they're mailed home), and I can only get mine (unless I wanna pay another $25 for other students' films).

    I actually found the code for our alphabet when I was cleaning my room a couple weeks ago. We'll have to translate it. =D Hehehe!!

    Well I'm gonna go now.

    See you when I get home!

    LOVE YOUUUUUU XOXOXOXO KISS KISS KISS HUG HUG HUG TRUE LOVE CUPCAKE.

    -Your wifey.

    p.s. - We still haven't exchanged Valentine's Day presents. Lawlz.
