I Just Want to Act

So it turns out that I moved to Southern California and I want to be an actress. That's really all there is to it. I've been applying to jobs and I have a job right now that is great but when it comes down to it, I want to act and sing and perform. So I've decided that I'm going to use this to blog my "journey to stardom" you might say. (Let's all hope that I get to stardom, right? :)
 I'm hoping that this will serve three purposes:
1) I'm hoping that I can make it entertaining enough so that at least a few people will read it every once in a while
2) Anyone who does take the time to read it can post suggestions or any insight or connections they might be so kind and willing to share with me.
3) It will make me accountable to anyone who reads this so I'll actually see this acting thing through.

So that being said, here we go:
Day 1: I've decided that all I want to do is be an actress. Today I looked at a few audition websites (audish.com, actorssaccess.com, and craigslist.com -yes they post auditions on craigslist, funny huh?) and put my information up and started looking at what I could apply for. I sent my headshot and resume to a few places and I need to figure out how to do "online web demos" (and find out exactly what they are) so that I can send those. Also I need to find a way to do some voice clips. I could do that using my computer I guess but if anyone knows of a better (but not super expensive) way, please advise. :-) But let's keep in mind that I'm still poor :) Poorer than I was in Utah actually. It turns out that the rumor is true and that everything really is more expensive here. But the palm trees make it worth it.
Also today, on a completely unrelated note, I got pulled over for the first time. What was it for? I crossed over a solid white line. Sue me. Freak. The cop was probably super bored, needed to fill his quota for the month, and so he's like, "Sure, let's pull this little girl over who's never been pulled over before and give her a citation for doing something small while dudes are speeding past me at 110 mph because this will be easier and a number is a number." ....seriously?
So those are my stories for today. Stay tuned for more later :)
