Get to it Hot Stuff!

I was looking into some movie news today, you know just browsing. And I see this article that says "Wanna Be in Josh Whedon's Avengers?" advertising a casting call. First thing in my mind is "I'm not big comic book fan but hell sign me up!" But then I keep reading. And it says that it's to be held in Santa Fe, NM. Plus, it's this coming Wednesday. Way to live in the boonies.

That's the crap end of the deal when living in Tucson. Shit never happens. Of course we get a big celebrity concert or a hit Broadway musical or a hip, new clothing store or something exciting along those lines, every now and then. But it's too sporadic! The whole "small town" thing sort of works for me some days. While on others, it blows. The wild dreams that I have of achieving stardom of some degree are no means in my grasp so long as I continue to thrive (on what little I have left) in this dead end of a city. As they say, Tucson is the "place where dreams go to die." Boy, what a downer, eh?

Something I never noticed. When on the I-10 heading towards 1-19, there's a sign above the road that says 'City of South Tucson'. South Tucson is a city?! Why was I never informed? So confusing.

Anyways, it's not all bad. I haven't been in an active theatre production in a year at least. I'd like to do more. They were auditions for Anything Goes at Pima. But I chickened out and decided not to try out. Sort of the same way that I dropped my Musical Theatre class after one day. That teacher/"Broadyway star" gave me all the wrong vibes. And when those vibes talk, I listen. Maybe I wasn't ready or maybe I was really intimidated. I could always attempt it again. Possibly. Don't know. Hmph. There are a few theatre companies here. Live Theatre Workshop, for example. Moseley has done a couple shows that I went to watch and they've all been great. Plus the other Ecetera ones were cool, although too strange for the rest of my family. I liked them. So I guess I could go audition. Whenever they may be.

Theatre has always been on the top of my list as my college major. However, now it's conflicting with the possibility of a major in psychology. Animation kind of got thrown out, although I still enjoy to draw. But theatre still teases me. It's one of the several voices that echo through my noggin.
Don't worry Jan I feel you. No one listens to me either. I can understand why you despise Marcia.
But if I do pursue the stage, I don't really think education is all that important. Maybe not from a college professor at least. Acting classes totally. But to me, acting is more about experience. The only way to get better is to act, perform and learn from those experiences. But I guess I haven't really done enough to say so. Oh well.

It's getting late (or early?) so I'm out. I can't even type, my hands are shaking so much.
So as they say in the entertainment world, 'Seacrest out'.
