Audition

Well, I had my audition for Nightmare yesterday. It was a cold reading, so I didn't need a monologue or anything. I don't think I got the part, considering what I overheard the people in charge saying. But I had fun. God's will be done--if I'm not getting the role, there's a reason, and I trust God to guide me.

Today will be very busy. I have work, then an hour with my acting teacher to prep for my audition on Monday (much bigger deal), then I have rehearsal. I'll be on my feet all day. I'm just thankful I have work, so now I won't starve.

Fun times

Jeff's finally over, after such a long time! Missed him so much. We weeded the garden together, which was fun. I've got an audition tonight, so I'm excited about that. These days I'm in a permanent state of excitement!

The movies Dark Knight, I am Legend, The Golden Compass, and Stardust all look pretty good. The former half are Jeff movies, the latter half me movies. I've read the Golden Compass, and I'm really looking forward to seeing the movie. Go to www.comingsoon.net to see the previews, which I highly recommend.

Breakfast

Just finished breakfast, using my mom's computer without her permission. I don't think she'd mind, though. She's been working more on Chamma--good for her. I'm so busy with everything I haven't really had a chance to do the same.

It seems I told God, "hey, could I have a bit more theater?" And suddenly I'm swamped with oppertunities. I need to work on my contemporary monologues, since I've been using Shakespeare only for over a year now for auditions. I really do love Shakespeare. It's just so... better.

Reading The Lord of the Fire Lands, by Dave Duncan. Excellent book. It calls to me...

Theater

Really busy! First is Cleveland Shakespeare. Second is the monologue I'm going to be doing for church. Third is reading for a part in Nightmare--Jeff insisted that I try (bless his soul). Fourth is auditioning for the JCC and a really big name here. Plus getting help for all of these. I wanted to do more theater, and it comes roaring down my way!

They told me that for the part in Nightmare I might be too young. Then again, they haven't seen me with my hair short.

I'm off to work to pick a pattern for my costume for the medieval fair and then to the library to pick up some Spanish book so I have a head start on my class this fall.

God is great. :-D I love this life.
