Let's switch it up a little. New name for the blog, new design and other stuff - coming up shortly. EDIT: For now, let's just do the name change - I'll be back later with the new design. Don't be a stranger! Loves

That's how the expression goes when you're drinking, right? "I'm only in for the one and done tonight!". I had really hoped everything would be the same with the flu.. But no, here I am, three days later, of course feeling a little better but I'm still not fit for fight. Good thing I only miss one class today; bad thing I missed three on Saturday and an opportunity to go see a play and hang out with friends on Sunday. Well, let's root for the "three and done" - I'm implementing new rules! In other news, I've just finished shooting a bunch of shorts which has turned out with varying quality - one which I have yet to see. I had to turn down a shoot Saturday though because I was so sick - which sucks - because it looked like an amazing shoot and I wouldn't mind adding "Zombie" to my resume. Also, Jonna and Christian are in town for a week and we've only spent two evenings together so far.. My illness is badly timed, but ...

Well. Just as I suspected, unfortunately. The snow we had was short, but joyous. We only had it over the weekend and then it melted away - and it REALLY melted away. Two days after I was dressed with two pairs of pants, 4 shirts, a jacket, a hat and a scarf I walked around with sleeves rolled up without my coat. The wonders of spring. Well, at least I got to SEE snow - and it did get my craving for snowboarding going. Maybe that's what I should do for spring break? I just learned that I actually have a spring break - from 3rd of March to the 12th of March. Just a bunch of random ideas about what I would like to do then. It's a much later question though, I'll look into all kinds of options. Don't be a stranger! Loves

I guess you sort of have to go through a bad experience before you know what a good one is. Yesterday's shoot turned out nothing like either of us had hoped for.. I was 20 minutes early, because I like being on set on time and the other actor arrived five minutes late. This was all fine since the director herself showed up around 40 minutes late, with no messages or phone calls to me. Everything went completely chaotic from there. Her DP (Director of Photography) and her AD (Assistant Director) decided to cancel on her the night before but we still needed to shoot. No shot list, no storyboard and only one script that we as actors brought. We had a kid and a dog on set and she had never directed either before. The dog's owner turned into our DP and the friend that came with our director had nothing to do. Don't ask me how things went. We had to power through, without any break, because we were delayed about an hour the entire day. The camera started acting up at around n...

Lot of work coming my way, I'm really happy! But, waking up around 7am on a Sunday-morning to go out far into the Bronx for a shoot is not really part of the charm. Well in a sense it is, because it actually feels like working for real again, so that's why I love it..! New schedule for school has just started, we've got three new classmates, a bunch of new teachers and lots and lots of exciting new classes. This semester can only be fun! Don't be a stranger! Loves

There's FINALLY snow on the ground here in New York! It only took two freak blizzards in October, a couple of days of random snowfall in December and January and a long frigging time - all the way up till January 21.. That's insane if you ask me. What's even more insane is that it's probably not going to last either. Ah well, at least it's something. Don't be a stranger! Loves

WOW! I guess I must have done something extremely well. All of a sudden, I have three lead roles in short films lined up and one as an extra. Also waiting to hear back from two more producers and filmmakers. The audition that I thought went crap before Christmas? One of these lead roles are from that audition - WITH GREAT COMPLIMENTS ("I loved your acting") to go with it as well! If this is not a late Christmas-gift, I don't know what is! Don't be a stranger!

It's 2012 already? Jeeez, time flies when you're having fun? Isn't that so? Well, 2011 might be over, but the memories from that year will echo for a very long time. I had a great run and I celebrated the end of it with a bang, a major bang.
