Agent, scripts, Thai...

I officially have an agent now. We really like her and the company she works with! And she's best friends with my manager as well! So we have a good team together. When we were at the agency signing contracts I got to do a voice-over audition, and that was really cool. I went in a little studio and just read one line. I was a bit tongue tied at first, but I think I got it after about...1o tries...or so. Also we went to a Thai restaurant yesterday that was delicious! I've never really had Thai, but mom and I really enjoyed it. Although they brought me the wrong dish and then after I had eaten half of it our waitress came up and said "I brought you wrong thing, that ok?" so I had something with coconut milk, curry, and beef instead of Duck Curry. It was purty good though, so I didn't mind. I got a script last night for an audition coming up and I'm pretty excited about it, it's a neat story. I also have a 30 minute session with an acting coach on Monday set up, and I have to memorize a script for that. I also have an all day commercial workshop next Saturday with some neat acting coaches! So, busy, busy, busy. Mom and I are enjoying ourselves even though not having a place to live is mildly stressful. I believe that's all! More updates soon!

Rush Hour Fun.

We tried to make it to the Department of Labor after my audition , but we hit rush hour traffic and we didn't get there till 5:02...So two minutes late! And then we went the next day, but they wouldn't accept the letter we had saying I'm home schooled because it's from 1998. So, we have to get an updated letter saying I'm still home schooled and we can't do that till Monday...But this is rush hour traffic in L.A! Oh joy!

1st audition!!!

Heading to my first audition. It went ok, but I'll be more prepared for my next one. I have a few days to study the script for one coming up!

Checkin out sketchy sublet...

Heading to check out an apartment we were going to sublet in Glendale. It turned out to be an illegal sublet...Or so we think, and the lady was not happy with us for not subletting the place. It was small and tacky and she wanted to leave all of her stuff there sooo....Not the best option. We'll just keep looking and praying till we find a place!

Driving on the freeway for the 1st time!



Mary Blount on the 134...Yes, it's true.

Our Little Hell-Hole

We arrived in L.A. at 2:30 am EST, and we were overjoyed when we pulled up to this shack! I wouldn't say it was in a total Ghetto area but it wasn't a very nice or safe area either... Needless to say we checked out as soon as possible and we're now in a nice motel in a different area of the city! More updates soon... :)

Arriving in L.A!

It's been an exciting and crazy trip so far! Our flight from Roanoke to Charlotte ended up being delayed four hours. So we ended flying from Roanoke to Pittsburgh then taking a very long 7 hour flight from Pittsburgh into LAX in Los Angeles (Justin Bieber was there yesterday, but apparently he's a jerk). Anyways, we made a friend too! Our friend is a girl named Chandler who is a dancer in L.A. and she sat with us the entire flight. She also let us share her ride to Burbank with her! She was super sweet, oh and she is dancing in Jennifer Lopez's new video too!!! That's all for now! More updates soon!
