I'm back.... again
Hello friends,
It seems like I always take a year long hiatus when ever i stray from keep ing up on my blogging duties. Well, a lot has changed.
I have slowed once again with the acting part of my life and other opportunities have taken hold.
I lost my job at the Farm of Beverly Hills and am now catering for The Event Department, they do movie premiere and wrap parties so i get to rub elbows with the industry folks. I also work house keeping at the USA Hostels, its an incredible job and they encourage you to drink and hook up when you are not on the job. But cheifly, of my new employment avenues is a job that my good buddy Jeremiah Lupo hooked me up with. I am now writing for a great website called Bigshinyrobot.com. They have sent me out to cover some great release parties and world premiere screenings and i couldn't be happier doing it. Mr. Bryan Young at Big Shiny Robot, has given me the keys to the city. Life is funny.
I've quoted it numerous times before and I'll continue to quote it. "Life can be beautiful."

Life.
I has been some time since October 1st, 2009. A lot has happened in the past five months, I am now twenty four years old and no closer to the many goals I had set out for myself. The reason being, well, me.
It was brought to my attention that I have been creating blocks for myself. I have been turning mounds into mountains and fooling myself into thinking that these blocks were actually fundemental tools that I needed to improve myself and my craft. The reason being that I desire so deeply to be the best I can be in my chosen profession and not just for me but for the potential power and direct delivery of truth and its ability to inspire, to medicate, to enlighten and encourage others to live for themseleves and for others to remember, or for some, to discover that you don't have to comfortable being nobody. We are all incredible creatures and have the potential within us to achieve bigger and better things. To better the world around us. That is why I act that is why I live. Now becase of a great friend I have a new found opportunity to put myself out there and create a name for myself in order to attain a life that promotes and provides me with the time and space to pursue my craft.
In the past few months through my reading and study of the art of acting, I began to develop a much deeper understanding and respect for theatre. As that understanding grew, so too did a desire to immerse myself in the world of the theatre and I couldn't think of a better place to do that than New York. I in turn set out to uproot myself from Los Angeles and make a life for myself there. I then began to want to have the New York experience under my belt as an an actor which blinded me. I began to develop a idea of superiority for the art of theatre. I started drifting from my respect for film and also from the reason I moved out to California in the first place. That goal was to achieve success as an actor with an unshakable will and passion. To devote my time day in and day out to this goal. But in a matter of months I put it aside in order to start saving the money I would need to float in New York before I could find a job and place and settle in. I stopped auditioning, and I stopped reading, I stopped pursuing. I had lost my way.
Lost my way, that was, until last week. My incredible friend Sherri Bradford came into town and sought me out. She is the one who pushed me to begin acting in the first place. She awakened my desire to portray, to mimic, to create and to learn. It is she that has always believed in what I could achieve. It was out of the blue that she returned into my life. She contacted me and we then met for lunch and she introduced me to a friend of hers a friend who happens to be an agent for a successful agency here in Los Angeles. Because of her tenacious belief in me, I am now represented across the board by a great agency. I can now audition for Televison and Film as well as Commercials. She also talked to me a woke me up to the overbearing judgment I have for myself and my craft. She made me see that I was dwelling to much on things from the past. Trying too hard too better myself, all the while moving further away from the ability I so desire to embrace. She reminded me of the power of Film and my belief in its necessity and how it fit into what I want for myself and for the future, for the world. I am going to take this amazing opportunity and apply the same drive that I had when I moved to this beautiful state.
Life is funny. My desire to avoid celebrity and the superficial Hollywood ideals has become an uncompromising beast that has fed my lack of aggression and the pursuit of success. I have wanted to change the industry from without, but change must come from within. I must take opportunity by the reigns and gallop towards victory.
Men are haunted by the vastness of eternity. We wonder, will or actions echo through the ages or be cast by the wayside. I now see what lies out there in the stars, Immortality. I can't wait for it to come to me, I must take, It is mine!
