Wear some pretty clothes before the trendy girls on your block buy them all
I guess Los Angeles Fashion Week is a pretty big deal. It sets the tone for what you’ll be buying at H &M and Target in a few months. A few months after that, it creates the horror you feel when you see what you bought H&M and Target because it looked like something at L.A. Fashion Week. Yikes, those super high waisted pants. Wrong, wrong, wrong. Regardless of how long these trends will last, you’ll probably see tons of girls in these up-to-the-minute fashions drinking coffee and artfully scrunching their faces and positioning their legs at your local coffee shop. They might already be there. Beware. But don’t let those bitches show you up! Go out there and get some trendy threads of your own with this handy guide.
Electro-Bright colors. Pull out your old neon dance leotard and you’ll be sporting the latest trend. Neon pinks, yellows, blues and greens are in this summer, but if you don’t want to look like you’re six years old again, put a dark jacket and minimal jewelry on top.
High contrast colors. Color blocking means putting large swaths of one color—usually black—on top of another swath of either a color or white. That’s in, along with lots of red pieces and clothing wit black-and-white patterns.
Neon animal print. A more nature-specific and growly version of the already childlike neon trend. Get a t-shirt with pink leopard print and black-rimmed neon spots or a green-and-black zebra printed pair of leggings.
Plaid. Yeah! Already got it and so does everyone I’m sitting around right now in Seattle. I guess we are the real trend setters; not you, L.A.

The Day of Love
Valentine’s Day, although I am fully aware is a “made-up” holiday is one of my most favorites! Single or not, I love it! I have friends who celebrate it as “Hate Day” and “Single Day” and “Anti-Valentine’s Day” but I have never been one to join in on any of the negative that people feel during this particular holiday. I can honestly say that yes, I have been in a relationship on every Valentine’s Day probably since I was 16 (or maybe even younger), but that is not why I love the holiday so much.

And the Acting Classes Begin…
I for the first time since graduating acting college back in 2005 decided it was time to take an acting class. I went an audited Michele Gosset’s acting class in Sherman Oaks in the beginning of January and decided it was what I needed to get my foot back in the door. I took Michele Gosset my first semester, first year of acting college and I learned a lot working with her. The night I audited Mrs. Gosset’s acting class she had done a “Type Me” exercise where each person went up on stage alone, she had them do an instrumental and then as they were describing themselves, their life and doing this instrumental the whole class wrote about how they looked, what they could possibly be cast as, etc. Read more about And the Acting Classes Begin…
Options
So many options… Life in Los Angeles is what you make of it. It can be an amazing experience, such as when I first came out here in 2003 or it can be stressful and crazy, just depending on what is going on in your life at that moment in time. For me, this time back out in Los Angeles is not as amazing as it was in 2003 (back then I came out here to go to acting college, I was living my dream of acting, meeting a ton of new people, enjoying life 100%, working hard but loving every minute of my life). Now life is much easier for me and I am not enjoying it as much. I have also said though and everyone close to me knows that I am only happy if I am busy and I have not been as busy as I was the first few years I lived here. Read more about Options
Happy New Year!
Happy Twenty-Ten, so far this year has started off with a bang! For New Years my boyfriend, his sister, her husband and I all went to Catalina Island to celebrate. We left on Wednesday and rented a hotel with the room twice the size of my apartment, or maybe three times the size – it was huge! It was more like the size of a huge one bedroom apartment, but mainly open, with a small kitchen and a large bathroom (the bathroom was larger than the kitchen). Did I mention that the beds were king size? It was like I woke up in another world. We are used to my tiny full size bed, so moving up to a king was nice, comfortable, and slightly colder (without my boyfriend’s body heat so close to me, I actually got cold in the middle of the night).

Time to be Thankful!
My boyfriend arrived home just before Christmas with a huge to-do list and a big ball of stress riding on his shoulders. His main priority was signing another six month contract to stay in the Navy while finishing out Navy Seal training so that once July comes he can sign on for another five years (he’s already been in almost nine). He was stressing because when he first left for training back in March, they gave him a ninety thousand dollar signing bonus, but now after completing his first six months of Seal training they wanted to (without him knowing) drop it down to around fifty thousand. When it comes to money, my boyfriend keeps his eyes out and open. He made sure that his new six month contract included the previous ninety thousand signing bonus, signed the new contract and was relieved by one less stress. The next major thing he needed to take care of were two differen Read more about Time to be Thankful!
Ab-Infomercial = Hypothermia!
I started off my week great; finished my boyfriend’s Christmas decoration, last week before he comes homes (5 very long weeks later), and two auditions that I did not even really ask for. One was for a Wii Fit commercial, the other was for an ab-infomercial. I auditioned for the Wii commercial last Friday and had got a callback on Monday as well as the ab-infomercial audition.
