I just had a spa day my self as a gift from my husband at the Canyon Ranch Spa in Las Vegas (HUUUUUUGE). THe massage was great but, man, was there a LOT of naked women. I went in the sauna and shared it with 4 other women clothed, and patially clothed. no one was looking at each other, but you couldn't avoid it either. Going into the jacuzzi everyone was nude, too. I was a little overwhelmed, but after a while everyone was so respectful and happy, it felt totally natural. No one can have an attitude when you're sharing a small jacuzzi with a large naked woman, who walks around, flaunting her curves like a Queen.

Sucks that you got harrassed while naked. I would have denied, denied, denied lol....

2010-11-03T13:46:44.475-07:00

Somebody told me a long time ago that if I wanted to pursue ANY type of creative career, acting or otherwise, I had to enjoy the journey. So it's less "when do I arrive, when do I win" and more a feeling of, "Every day I am where I am supposed to be, every day I win." Those things with the homeless people are not your fault - people who have big hearts put themselves (and their hearts) out there on the line and sometimes it ends awkwardly. But it doesn't mean you should numb yourself or your intentions or hide away from the world and stop trying to make it a better place.

You sound like such a good person, WA. Don't let the doubt kill you.

Dear Working Actress -

I've felt like this before...sometimes I too feel sad, lonely and confused about the world I have around me. However, I think the important part of this all is to realize the positive aspects of your actions.

You gave the homeless girl your leftovers - regardless of how hot it was - you gave this girl food to eat. I spent time living in a third world country and my heart breaks when I think that a fight would have broken out in a village for any food at all. She was lucky.

As for the Mphatso in Malawi, you fell for this scam, but it's only because you believe in the greater good in people. That's not a bad way to live at all.

My belief is that good people send something out into the universe that eventually they get back. Think about how you may have changed the lives of the people you interact with. The man you offered a zone bar to but he refused because he wasn't homeless. I bet the next time he see's someone waiting on the street - he's going to think about the time you tried to help him - and hopefully will pass on this good deed.

FOCUS on yourself, your craft and your determination.

Be a good person because that is who you are.

and remember...it is not about the destination (booking and winning) but the journey that gets you there.

2010-11-03T00:34:21.959-07:00

People who have fame and money are the ones who need to speak for those who have neither. Find your platform, your charity, and do good. THAT is your purpose.

I think it's both. If you were just booking pa...

2010-11-02T17:10:12.210-07:00

I think it's both. If you were just booking parts and working, but did not strive to be a good person and find happiness in the lulls between, you would not be a complete person. You may have money and work, but I think you should pride yourself on the fact that you want to do more. You want to help people (homeless or not!) That's something to be happy about. Not everyone in the world is like that.

I think it's easy to get lost in the go-go-go I want-I want-I want of life (especially life in the entertainment industry), but the fact that you want more in life shows true character. Don't get too down on yourself. I don't know you personally, but I have a feeling that you have others' best interests at heart and are doing a good job at striving to "be more" and "do more".

I really hope to "get paid to read words" sometime soon. Heck, considering my current situation, I just want an audition or two!

All the best! Have a good week! :)

2010-11-02T16:11:44.167-07:00

Aww, that sounds like a pretty intense audition scenario. I think the most important thing is that you went in there, did your best, and walked out with dignity (despite the door issue)! Sometimes we just have to find humor in the worst possible situation and laugh at the horrible "scene". I think writing this entry helped you do that. I'm a 110% sure that you will have a better audition experience next time. Keep persevering like you always do - you're a huge inspiration to a "wannabe working actress"! :)

2010-11-02T15:40:26.419-07:00

I'm with Robin. I smell a WA series in the making. Kinda like Ricky Gervais' "Extras", only with an American Working Actress in the lead.

You would rock it.

OH FUCK ME.

My uncle-in-law was AD-ing "Get Rich or Die Trying" with 50 Cent. He quit. and that's all I'll say online.

you didn't miss out on anything except for more humiliation and regret.

If you can handle that glass box of HELL, you can take on anything, girl.

Oh, hon... I am laughing, but in a sympathetic kind of way. I'm so sorry. Win some, lose some, right?

The door stuck is priceless though. That would totally happen to me.

THAT actually sounds like an awesome scene FOR a movie. I am sorry that it was your real life, however. The good news is that your NEXT audition HAS to be BETTER!
