So there was an open call yesterday for the new Kevin James Film, they were looking for actors to play teenagers, I know this was a stretch for me to look like a 16-17 year old but then again I did do a pretty decent job because the casting director (one of them) remembered me pre-hysterectomy and broken foot that is, and commented on how "young" I looked. as usual I worked myself up into a frenzy for nothing because we literally were pulled into the room and told to line up, a few words were spoken, and we were told "we'll be in touch". On the upside I'm sure there will be some extra work available, and I usually get that, but honestly I'm more than an extra. I have so much more to offer just haven't had the chance to really shine I guess. I mean, the first and only speaking role I've ever been considered for was on the soon to come Anna Farris film "What's your Number", I got a call and they asked if I'd be interested in auditioning to read opposite Anna in a scene where she walks in to find me "topless" and leaving her fiance's apartment after just sleeping with him. I got there but had car trouble on the way, so I was late, and I read opposite a camera, it was awkward and I never did get a call back for that film..... My fingers are crossed for an opportunity to get a CB for this last audition because I'm dying to just work again. A movie set, a stage, a photography studio, performance areas....they all feel like home to me. check out the lil video from yesterday......

Quick thought....

So okay I'm finally SAG Eligible but in order to get the card it's like $2,200.00, and I am a "struggling actress", it took so much just to get the eligibility (two years of looking for work and going on countless auditions), and then they send you this congratulations letter welcoming you to the "Elite" Screen Actors Guild Union, but you have to pay to play as they say. I know it will be worth it in the long run, I just honestly can't afford it. After having this horrible past year and my recent surgeries, I've been unable to work enough to save up that kind of money. I just hope I didn't work up this great momentum working so closely with Ben Affleck, in "The Town" , which I plan on writing a whole post just about that experience because I feel it's DEFINTLY worth sharing, and Adam Sandler and Chris Rock in "Grown Ups", I got to have conversations with Tom Cruise during the filming of the airport scene of "Knight and Day", filmed here in Worcester, Ma, and got to meet some amazing people the Two Years before last and I really hope, dream and pray even though these people I worked with may work with a thousand people a day, that they will still remember me when I make it to L.A. I feel you meet and talk to everyone for a reason and I consider myself blessed to have gotten to speak to such amazing people that are living the dream I dream. I can not wait until the day when I am able to show the whole world what I am capable of. I have to stay positive and on the right path.

until my next impulse to write.....TKS

So this is where my story begins....

I'm a 29 yr old, out of work Singer and Actress, who has just had a hysterectomy.....yeah did I say I was 29?.........and since I've had all sorts of time on my hands I figured I'd join the world of blogging, since I write in a journal anyway, it's sort of the same I guess, except this kind of thing, you know others will read, whereas a journal you can feel safe knowing just your eyes will read it....but then I looked at just how many out there DO blog, so I thought.....I can be just as honest, so I'm going to be. I'm not going to hold back, I want to share the truth about my life, maybe it will help someone out there.....

Today is Valentine's Day. Yup. Period. I can honestly say "Hallmark Holiday" ...."Let's Skip It!"    so like I said I'm 29, no kids, and a live in boyfriend of about 7 yrs.  I had the hysterectomy to rid myself of the burdening immense pain I experienced monthly from endometriosis, not realizing even though I WAS warned I may experience depression from losing all that pain and then realizing that my body will Never carry or bear children sinking in, I sort of "signed out" for awhile

In the end what doesn't kill us makes us stronger.
