A little blog about the newbie actor and her struggles to survive LA.

A Start

Where does it all begin?

I think it starts with dreams and sheer stupidity...

What is all this nonsense about? Well, I'm not entirely sure yet. I'll play the uncertainty card for a while. I think I've earned this right after moving across a country and setting up camp in a foreign land just for the sake of a dream...a relatively unattainable one at that.

Today was the day I motioned on over to the city of Angels to follow an unshakable need to act.

God, admitting that out loud, writing it into the ether (you bunch of strangers)...it's embarrassing! It sounds like the cliche drivel that oozes out of everyones mouth. I hate being like everybody else. And yet here I reside in Los Angeles, attempting to break it big in the dramatic field of plastering my face across a tv screen. Also to clarify, I am not, I repeat NOT looking for fame, fortune, glory, stardom and what ever else self-centered narcissists are in search for. I just want to act. I want to play with greatness. I'll serve it coffee, shine it's shoes or watch it's kids...all I want is to be inspired by all the talent that seems to gravitate towards the LA hub.

Fuck, what am I doing? *deep breath*

In plain terms, my little corner of blogdum is about detailing a two month to indefinitely timed journey where I start being a grownup and actively follow an unwavering dream. The result will mostly likely include crashing and burning into penniless existence, but at least I'll have this record attesting to the fact that I got off my lazy ass and did something.

Mission: Become a working actor

Survival Time: 2 months until the money dries up

Piece of cake, right?
