The Bold and the Beautiful

NOTE: This has nothing to do with the soap opera....if that is what you want to read about, look someplace else.

I choose this title for a few reasons...
Mainly actors are bold (read below) and beautiful (because what we do is beautiful....idk)

I, first, want to discuss a topic. Actors. We are very interesting specimens. We prepare monologues, scenes, plays, etc....and we become nervous wrecks to audition for plays that we have a small percentage to make...yet we do it over and over again. What the hell is wrong with us....
I will try and explain my reasoning...
Personally, and I know this goes for more people, acting is my world. And, yes I go through the ridiculous process.....but it all pays off. Being onstage, doing what I love to do has no words to explain it. So, I audition because it is what I do, and the stomach turning process is something you never get used to, but it has a thrill to it that you cannot find anywhere else. I am going to stop, most of you who read this are actors and should get what I am saying...for those of you who aren't, words cannot justly describe what I attempted to bring up....

So on with my recent life....
I had my interview/audition yesterday for the school major program. I think it went well. They will mail me a letter in a few weeks informing me if I am a theatre major or if I remain a pre-theatre major. The professors i was doing this for were exactly like the American Idol panel. It was uncanny.
Just about an hour ago, I auditioned for Tennessee William's Camino Real. It was intimidating. I walk into the room, after sitting in the lobby for ten minutes calming myself down, and there are about seven people sitting behind a table. They didn't tell me when to start or if I could. When I was finished I thanked them, no reply, and a girl escorted me out. There was nodding from a couple of them, so hopefully that is a good thing. The girl said they will be contacting people who made callbacks sometime after 7:30....that is in about 8 minutes...but I am not getting my hopes up...nor am I going to sit by my phone. I will surf the web like I usually do, maybe have a snack, and if they call great. If not, so what. There will be more in life for me to take a bite of.

This week I get the results of my biology test, I have a calculus test, and I get to perform my duo scene in acting class (mind you, my partner and I have yet to really rehearse...on her will...I have wanted to...).

I hung out with Lindsey this weekend. We watch a couple Meryl movies (what else is new), had a laundry party, did some grocery shopping, and talked to Kristen for about 3 hours on the phone.
OK...about that. I was yelled at by Kristen because I was falling asleep on the phone. It was not my fault my body was telling me it needed sleep....also she brought up some interesting topics to try and keep me awake...wow...and Lindsey sat in the closet to talk to Tom on the phone....that was weird...I don't remember the end of the conversation but after Lindsey hung up I do remember getting up to talk to her...and then I crashed....

I will now go surf the web. Halloween is this upcoming weekend. I will be at the Sanchez house. I am going to be a pregnant nun and Jessica is going to be the Pope...fun!!!!

Here is a random mad-lib....
