Self Update- 2014 RECAP?

Happy Holidays Everyone !       I have been M.I.A. and I have no legitimate excuse besides trying to consistently keep my inconsistent record? I do apologize however, especially since my last post was the beginning of November. So let me catch you guys up on everything that has been going on. Acting audition : It was nerve wrecking but I went through with it. I however, did not finish it because my audition ignorant self did not know they were doing a group audition afterward and left. Hilarious right? I did not get the part. I did get an email among a handful of other people that when parts for supporting cast members would happen I'd be updated. My ego that was dropped was considerably restored after that email.  Finishing Fall Semester: I dropped the ball this semester. I stopped focusing on the main objective/goal and floated through the semester very lackadaisically. What could have been all A's became a majority of C's that I am not proud of.  Wint...

Bet you won't try this!... Easiest way to not stress yourself

" So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor. 7 Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you." 1Peter 5:6-7        This can be one of the toughest things for me to do. I can easily talk to God when things are going great. When things aren't looking my way however, I am quick to zip my lips. This may be the complete opposite reaction to some of you. My worries and "stressors" (just recently learned this term from psych class) cause me to throw on a nonchalant attitude. I do this because I know that God will spin the situation around for my favor. I am seemingly good for the first verse "So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor." My faith allows me to believe this however the casting my cares to God is hard for me to do. My nonchalant attitude causes me to talk to God maybe one time about my problems or w...

1st Acting Audition

Image
       In lieu of my last post I am going to audition tonight for a sitcom (most likely just a campus show).  I always call myself an actress so why not at least try and audition. I believe I might suck big time, but I am very confident about any result right now. That may change once I get into the room and see the turn out. I have mixed feelings on what I expect and want the turnout to be. I want there to be a lot of people so I if I do get the role it will boost my ego. I want there to be a little bit of people so it will boost my confidence and take away my nerves.        Am i prepared? Probably not. I do not have any head shots(I emailed and asked if I should bring anything and they did not mention that). I also do not get a script or character synopsis because it is just going to be a dry run through of the script. So I have no clue on what my character is like.        Do I want support from my friends? Yes. ...

Insecurities Suck

       It sucks that there is a security in the thought of the unknown. In the unknown you can't predict whether or not you'll fail at something or get rejected by something/someone. The unknown that I'm talking about in my life is the unknown of not trying. For instance I am currently not trying out for worship band vocal auditions at my college. I recently talked myself out of trying because the unknown terrifies me, The rejection I don't think I can handle it. In the beginning i had a confidence that couldn't be reckoned with. I was content with whether or not I made the band or not, I've done good. Now, I'm content with not trying because I am so insecure in myself, which allows me to be intimidated. I blame my current hormonal imbalance that comes with this time of the month. I also blame myself with my standing with God. Whenever I distance myself from God my insecurities grow. I have a banner on my Facebook page that says "Don't le...

New Season + New Day

    Hey Guys, I created this blog in 2010 with the intentions of posting videos, written work, and other things to build and share my portfolio.  I generally wanted to inspire change and make an impact via social networking. My main reasoning for this is because I know the power of WORDS. Words can either make or break you. When words are combined with media they can claim an authority over your life.         To get a glimpse of who I am, I googled "basic get to know me questions," and now I will answer them in bulletin format. My name is Jessica  I am a 20 year old college student Majoring in Communications (possibly will be taking on another major in business management) I am a Christian; So you will be hearing Pro Jesus things on my blog.
