Interview and Audition

Well, I've completed both my first job interview and my first audition here in Salt Lake City. Although I got lost on the way to the interview, I felt like it went well once I actually got there. As for the audition, well, I think it could have been better, but it also could have been a lot worse. If only I'd been able to stop my legs from shaking. But we'll see, about both, I guess.

Salt Lake is really....big. I can't think of any other word to describe it. Especially at night when everything is lit up and it goes forever, and you can't imagine how anyone could ever see all of it. There are so many different people here! All these stories, twisting and intertwining everyday. I've never been around so many people in my life. What can I say? I absolutely love it. There's so much to do, so much to see!

Moving Days

I can't believe that I'm actually going to be in Salt Lake City in a little over a week. It still doesn't seem real. I'm supposed to be boxing up stuff right now, but I just can't bring myself to do it. Not yet. I've been crying at the drop of a hat for the last two weeks, and I don't think it's going to get any better until I get established in Utah. Oh boy.

I have so much stuff to get done today, and all I want to do is watch YouTube and play snake. What a responsible and mature person I am.

One of These Days

One of these days I'm really going to make it, and people are going to know my name. Someone is going to look at me and say, "Wow, I wish that I could be like her." I'll be on a stage every day of my life, and see my name in the program.

I just don't know when.

O.W.L.s

Which girl kept track of each Harry Potter character's first line and is now going to quiz her siblings on them?

This girl.

Because I wanted to do it the Hogwarts way, I wrote everything in the four tests by hand. Rather monotonous. It's actually going to be pretty sweet, though. I'm excited. I don't know how well I would have done on the test if I hadn't been prepared-- there are some that you'd have to be asleep to miss, but others are pretty unexpected or tricky. Who would've thought that Vernon Dursley, one of the most unfeeling characters, has the first line of "Sorry"? Or that all Draco Malfoy, Harry Potter's arch-enemy, says is, "Hi."?

It's brought me to wonder what people remember me as saying the first time I met them. I've said and then forgotten a lot of words in my life, I'd like to know which ones are actually remembered.

Harry Potter rocks.
