BAP 2013: Annie-Day 6, Thursday

Ladies and Gentleman.

Today, Broadway Academy of Performing did three entire run throughs. Off book. On Thursday.

This is unheard of!!!

In the 15+ years since BAP has existed no one can remember ever having three full run throughs on Thursday. It's usually a high stress day, with dropped lines, dropped choreography, and botched music. No. Today was crazy amazing. Truly proof that this group of BAPpers is truly special. I cannot wait for the performance on Saturday!!!

I Deserve Safe Streets

Saturday was a weird day for me. I was supposed to wake up early and hit the gym so I could get in my three miles for training. Instead, I managed to oversleep by TWO whole hours. Lately I've been having the hardest time waking up. It doesn't matter if I've been out for four hours or ten. It's a struggle. But I went about my business and got ready for work. I wore my current favorite dress , a recent arrival at the store. I was feeling pretty cute, if I do say so myself. I felt like Elle Woods. During my shift I had my fair share of weird/problematic customers, like the woman who handed me a receipt then said, "Oh whoops, that has blood on it." Like, real human blood you guys! A concerning amount of blood! I refused to complete the return. (Just kidding. I carried on as usual, just highly grossed out.) When I finally got off at 8, I hopped the L train to the gym. And when I got to Planet Fitness... it was closed. Why a gym would choose to be open 2...

Big Changes!

Hello friends! We're moving quickly into spring (even if NYC weather fails to acknowledge it) and man do I have some great news to share! First, I posted last time about how due to cut hours I had taken on the second job at Blue Balloons. It's not something I had necessarily been super excited about; it meant having 0 days off and being even more exhausted than normal. But I was willing to hustle if that's what needed to happen. But then my manager approached me about moving into a management position at Loft. I had been a Sales Lead at my store in Texas and we had spoken several times during my time at the Flatiron store about moving back up, but there had never been a position open. But now, due to a series of moves within the company, one was! I gleefully told her I was still interested and she sat up an interview with our District Manager. And I am now, officially, the new part-time Sales Lead at Loft in Flatiron! I am so excited for this new opportunity. Being a ...

Stella Adler Callback

Hey guys! So I was very blessed to make the final round of callbacks with the Stella Adler conservatory in New York City! For this final round I was asked to film myself presenting a monologue as well as a personal statement about myself. Man, I stressed about that last part until my friends were ready to to murder me. I just didn't know how to approach it! I became an actor so I could embody others! I didn't want to talk as me about me! But eventually, after much consoling and a few come to Jesus talks with my dear friend Austin, I met with my very talented friend Michael Hoy and put some stuff on film. (If you do not know Michael's work, check it out! He runs Pilot Light Productions and last summer he filmed A short film named 'Tracking' starring some of favorite people! Find it on Facebook!) Anywho, Michael filmed my callback and it was great fun although I was stressing out over it hardcore. But we filmed it, Austin edited, I uploaded it to youtube, and subm...
