Oooookay. So I've been in NYC for about a month. So far, so good. I mean don't get me wrong. It's hard. I pretty much bombed my first chance at representation by performing a very silly scene and not having headshots printed on time. But hey, it was a good lesson. (Any agents or managers out there, check me out!) Auditioning is fun . . . really. I always hated auditioning but something about being in new york makes it exciting and really fun and I love it. I think it's also because I've been so focused on film and auditioning for film is, for me, waaaay better than auditiong for theatre. I feel so lucky to have a classical theatre background because I think that helps a lot too. In order to completely live up to the actress stereotype, I've also taken a job waiting tables - which I love! Even better, it's at Justin Timberlake's new restaurant called Southern Hospitality, which is a Memphis-themed BBQ joint that really rocks my socks. So far it's really great - and it's not that I'm some huge JT fan - although he is very nice - but I just love being in a place where I can order fried green tomatoes and sweet tea. I mean, how freakin perfect. Plus the JT hype means we have quite the buzz and get a lot of business, which means good cash flow for me. Holla. Other things I love about my new life in NYC? The people watching! I love watching people on the subway. (I'm a subway champion btw.) I love how people stand at the edge of the platform and let the breeze from the tunnel blow through their hair as they longinly wait for the train to appear . . . they look like they are standing out on a mountain or something, but this wind is the only strong breeze you can find in nyc . . . and I stand there half excpecting their tongues to hang out of their mouth like a labrador or something. All and all, things are good. A have a few potential projects lined up for the fall but i just need to figure out when those are taking place. In the meantime I'm just having fun and hanging in there, pounding the pavement by day and the bbq by night. Mmmm, good.
