A few weeks ago my family visited me, and it was a lot of
fun getting to be a tourist with them for a week. I learned a lot about New York City and fell
in love with the place even more. I had
mentioned a call back in my previous post.
Unfortunately, I did not get past the call back due to my weight at this
time. Not going to lie or beat around
the bush. That is the situation. They called me in with a couple of other
girls to tell us that they wanted to keep us, but unfortunately, due to our
weight, they were unable to. They told
us to come back in May, and if they see improvement, they may have a spot for
us. I appreciate getting the feedback
and I will try to use this as motivation to work even harder. On a happier note, I did get accepted into a
small contemporary modern dance company.
I am still doing auditions and classes when I can, but I also have been
looking into getting a marketing or social media job part time. These classes don’t pay for themselves you
know. I have gone to a couple of interviews,
so hopefully I will have some good news about that in the future. I did an audition for a specific role in West
Side Story. I learned that I need to do
more research before an audition if it is for a specific role because I did not
look like a tomboy like I should have.
Anyways, as of right now, I am just trying to get into better shape,
dance when I can, and learn anything I can in my free time. I am trying to force myself to read novels
and pretend to enjoy it, so maybe I will be able to teach myself how to like
reading. We will see. I am also doing my taxes. A lot of just random collections of things I
am doing right now because I do have free time, which is weird for me.
