and the tops of buildings I can see them too.
Today marks the day of my one hundred and fifth post. Today I want to listen chamber pop and a mix of 80's new wave and go back in time. Today I want my cats to stop scratching their claws on the back of my couch. Some of which will not happen, to my dismay.
As scheduled tomorrow, I was to film Legion, well the rain changed that. I wanted it to rain, my allergies wanted it to rain. So I guess if you want one, the other will just have to come a little later, but I feel the schedule change came at the right time. My allergies/head cold seemed to have stepped in at the wrong time, and someone upstairs helped out. Thanks.
I had one of the weirdest dreams last night. It wasn't a bad one, it was just very strange but I was comfortable. My dream started out in a dark house, dimly lite, and I was seeing someone kicking around this tiny little kitten. So of course, I step in an take the kitten away from the person (don't remember who it was), and I was told by someone else in the house that its blind so it needs alot of attention. This kitten was so cute, it was very small covered in all white fur, with little black eyes. I remember trying to get it to follow me but it wasn't responding to me and my calls, so I picked it up and carried it to bed. I lied down and it snuggled me till I had fallen to sleep, what a good weird dream. I woke up to thinking the dream was real. I hate that.
I did an analysis of my dream:
To see a white kitten in your dream, signifies deceit and trouble.
To dream that you are blind, represents your refusal to see the truth or your lack of awareness to a problem. Perhaps you are rejecting something about yourself or your situation. Are you refusing to see any other point of view except your own? Consider the pun, "turning a blind eye".
Your eyesight being impaired when it isn't in real life can represent:
- An inability or unwillingness to see something in your life, or a tendency to deny something
- A lack of mental or emotional clarity, clarity about your life or direction, or otherwise
- Feeling lost or unsure
I really don't like the (white kitten part), but we will see!

Let me see some Fancy Footwork.
She says I remind her of her father and i know she likes it, she wants a man that has his game locked tight. I think she reminds me of her mother and she knows I like it, I want a woman with the same brown eyes. - Chromeo
You might of caught me at some point this week, if you drove by the my the front of my house, and saw me dancing in my living room. Swinging my hair side to side, with my arms in the air, and pushing those hips side to side in a ridiculous humorous way. This was not because I necessarily had a good or bad week, its just something I have learned that you need to do spontaneously, you settle your sanity back and you become comfortable with yourself. I have become very comfortable with myself recently. I am realizing the things I am capable of and the things to push the limits, and when things go to far. I know when I have had enough and when I haven't. I think mostly the comfortability is coming from how much I am doing for myself and not relying on others. I am becoming financially stable for myself, and being in control of what I want to do and go.
I was meant to travel the world. My grandmother has been more places than I can even relate to, my mother lived in England at the age of 16. Its my turn to give myself something to increase my life's moral. Acting has supplied me with the means, its time to put it to use. So, I have started to plan a trip for next year, (May), where I am going to backpack Europe for two weeks, starting in England and ending in France (where i have once been before, but not Paris, the country side). Time passes to fast to just sit there waiting for the world to reach out to you.

When I keep holding on.
What do you do when you keep holding on to those feelings for being afraid to move on. Not talking relationships, or current situations. I am talking about being afraid to move on when you know what the next step is.
For me, my next step is, to locate to LA. But to this day, I am TERRIFIED, of approaching this. I just don't know what I want to do. I know what I have to do, but I can't get that message to my legs or hands to make that happen. My mother keeps telling me its not where I belong, but is it? I know I don't like traffic, I am scared to move again, I am afraid to the elevation of cost, and I am scared to be in a city where the pool is larger than I can imagine. Although, i know that is the only step I need to take in where I need to go.
My current situation is, I have an awesome Agent. She has pushed me in the right direction to start and I don't want to leave her. I have booked, Terminator, The Eye, Legion and Easier with Practice and I have only been with her for 1 1/2 years. I also have a better in here with the smaller pools than i would in LA.
I need some time to think. and maybe a little push would help.

So I have been casted.. again
Man oh man, this is turning out to be a great month? or year? not sure.
Anyways, I had an audition earlier this month for a role in "Easier with Practice", directed by Kyle Patrick Alvarez, and its starring Brian Geraghty (I know who Killed Me), Jeanette Brox (Heroes) and a couple others. It was with the CD that casted me in Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles and another CD who I have never met before, but she is located in LA. I thought I did really good at the audition, and I ended up getting a call back. Although I couldn't make the call back, again I know.... BUT! The directer liked me so much and wanted to cast me anyways. So I went in today to meet and what not, I read for the director and producer and got the role before I walked out the door! The director and first producer are just the sweetest! I can not wait to film! My agent is very very happy with me lately, and I can't be happier that SHE is happy!
So! As of today, I have been cast as Amanda (the diners waitress) in Easier with Practice!
Here is a little about the film:
In an effort to promote his unpublished novel, Davy Mitchell sets out on a road trip with his younger brother. However, the idealism of being on the road wears off and it quickly proves to be a lonely and unfulfilling experience for Davy. One night in a motel room he gets a random phone call from a mysterious woman named Nicole. They start a funny and intimate long distance relationship that leaves Davy happier than he has been in years. Hoping there is more to the relationship then a voice and a phone bill, Davy decides he wants to meet Nicole. Ultimately, he will have to face not only the truth about their relationship but also about himself.
Oh, I have also decided that I need to ditch that chocolate phone and get a blackberry. A part of me hates cell phones, but I can't seem to live a day with out it. I just wish that chocolate would reply to emails!!! I need to be able to do work on the road...
okay, enough of me ranting. It was a good day.

Day 2
My call time was at 11 am, but where they were shooting was a good hour away from where I live so for me the day started at 9:30 am. Once I arrived on set, they let me get a little bit comfortable before going to the aging room to try on my clothes and then head to make-up. They ended up not being able to get to my scene at the end of the day, so I will have to go back in a couple weeks to film again. :)


I was amazed how BIG it was, I even had a shower. Which at the end of day 2 I really felt like using!
I then had to proceed to Special FX Make-up, Rich and Glen did my make-up (Lord of the Rings).
After about 4 hours of make-up, the director (above, Scott) it wasn't what he was looking for (it did look a little too much, had Art take it all off and start over). Which the second time around everyone agreed that it looked much better.
They also had me put in these all black contacts, which were cool, but sucked at trying to get around. The 2nd 2nd AD had to walk me around the set. They ended up giving me a headache at the end of the day.
Fully in wardrobe, ready to shoot come 8:00 PM, although they didn't have enough time to shoot my scene, so I will have to go back in a couple weeks to film again. I was in make-up from 11-7, which wouldn't be that long next time. But I will have my third day on set in the next couple weeks :) It was a pretty good second day on set, I met Jennifer Connolly, Charles Dutten, Annie Palicki and a little bit of Dennis Quaid.Monday, April 21, 2008
Day 1
Today was my first day on set, it consisted of wardrobe, hair, quick tour of the set, quick meeting with the director on hair and little details, seeing Dennis Quaid and Lucas Black in action. Also running into Willa Holland and Percy Walker on set, and getting my script.
So now in detail...... Lets just say it was an awesome first day to feel acquainted. I got on to the studio lot around 5:30, and I had to be at wardrobe for 6:00. I was met by one of the A.D's and let to my first destination, everyone was very very nice.

I got into my fitting, which consisted of about 4 different outfits. They were much different than I had originally expected, but I was getting the angle of where it was going. Not sure on which ones Scott will decide on. I saw some wardrobe pictures of Dennis in his three different outfits, they were cute, put a smile on my face.
Next I was whisked away into make-up/hair, where I met Willa Holland (O.C.). They couldn't decide what to do with my lonnngg hair, one wanted it up and punky looking the other wanted it down and curly. They also didn't want it to resemble Willa's.
Lets just remember I am playing a 14 year old self inflicted drug addict.... So they couldn't decide, so we had to go all the way on set to get the directors point of view, which was what I thought my hair should look like..... So the director made an order for it to look like Willa's (Audrey) since I am playing the evil/opposite for her. While I was on set, I go to see a quick scene of Lucas Black and Dennis Quaid in action, and see the many stage sets inside of the studio for the movie. I also saw all their chairs.... hence the Dennis Quaid chair picture :)
While all this was going on, I got to get away for a bit and head into the production office and pick up my hard copy of the script.

lets read!
Here is a quick summary of Legion:
