Is blogging still a thing? What started as a fashion blog, I now think of as a great little...gem? To hold onto as I look back at my experiences in the past few years. Different jobs and boyfriends. Some of the same friends. Always the excitement and let-downs of callbacks and screen tests.
I'm always the most inspired in November, in part because it's my birthday month and for some reason I usually forget about this thing until then...when thinking of my buddies from back home reminds me of it.Or maybe it's because I just (belatedly) binge read and watched Gone Girl and am starting my own diary... just kidding :)Mostly it's just fun to look back at & laugh at myself.And at one point it was co-written with my friend Lindi. Lindi...are you there...get the hint?~I like taking notes as time goes by. A running inventory, if you will. Things like personal style. So simple these days. T-shirt and jeans, always. Am I lazy or just getting older and more of a uniform? I used to be so glitzy and glam. Thank god I'm over that.
The summer was so brutally slow for acting that I practically watched it blow by like a cloud changing shape. But the times I had with co-workers at side jobs we ended up having to take, and the many a late summer's night, reminiscent of my teenage years, were unrivaled.It's hard for life to be consistent when these careers don't come with a yearly salary and predictable forecast. But after this long I know it's all a part of the terrain and I've come to peace with that. My family's trust is even hard to maintain at times. I mean, when things are slow and I'm eating ramen, all looks dreary from afar, I'm sure. But they always have my back in the end. All in all, it was a good year for sorting the good and the bad. And if there is one take-away, it's this... Never give up. Whatever you're doing. Just don't. Simple.
