    Kindess of a Stranger...

    Have you ever drove with a flat tire before, but did not realize it until a stranger honks at you to tell you? That is exactly what happened to me today. There I was driving my grandparents to my aunt’s house when the truck next to me gave me a honk. I never really had anyone honk at me while I was driving before, unless if I cut them off or did something to offend them. So, I thought, why is someone honking at me? I did not do anything… I did not even change lanes… I was not driving like a maniac… Maybe someone thinks I am HOTT… Wishful thinking… L When I turned to look at the person on the left lane, it was a middle aged man pointing at my car and making weird gestures. At first, I did not understand at all; I thought he was dancing or something. After he repeated his gesture a second time, it donned on me that he was pointing to the back tire on the driver’s side. That was when I realized that the kind stranger was warning me that I had a flat tire in the rear end of my car. Feeling like an idiot for thinking otherwise, I nodded to the stranger signaling him that I understood and thanked him all in one. Then when he was out of sight, I thought to myself, I must have looked like a fool… driving my car with a flat tire without realizing it. I mean, who does that? (obviously me… ) By the time I reached my aunt’s house, which took about 5 minutes, sure enough, my rear tire was low on air. It looked like it was half-alive… I did not know how that happened, but later, I took it to Sears to get it fixed. It turns out, I must have ran over a board with a nail in it or something because it left a tiny hole in my tire that was not able to be patched up. Overall, the mechanic had to put in a new tire and all it cost under $10. (Unbelievable, right?) Every time I changed my tires, it was at least $60 per tire, but it turns out that even though my tire was 4 years old, the treads on it was as good as new. Because of that, they did not charge me at all for my new tire or something along those lines… Cool! As you can tell, I am completely confused, so if anyone knows the explanation for this, please comment. Thanks!

     

    The moral of my story is, there are many kind-hearted people in this world that will try to help anybody in need. Are you one of these kind-hearted strangers that help other people in need? If so, good for you… it feels great to help others right? If you are not, why? Living in a world full of people giving and contributing to our community is way better than living in loneliness. Try it. One day, if you see someone struggling with their groceries or is stopped on the side of the highway with a flat tire, stop to try to help them. I know it will for sure put a smile on their face and make their day. For you, helping another gives you a great sense of accomplishment and it also puts a smile on your face.

     

    P.S. THANK YOU, KIND-HEARTED STRANGER, FOR WARNING ME THAT I HAD A FLAT TIRE TODAY. IF YOU DID NOT TELL ME, I WOULD NOT HAVE NOTICED. J YOUR KINDNESS AND CARE MADE ME APPRECIATE THE WORLD WE LIVE IN.

     

    HAVE A GREAT WEEK EVERYONE! SPRING BREAK IS OVER. L

    What it was like being a Background Artist!

    Hey everyone, how are ya'll? I hope everyone had a good weekend! You know, I had a great weekend. I had my first experience of being an EXTRA for a movie. I spent the whole day Saturday, and half-day Sunday on a movie set. :) The movie is called The Final, directed by Joey Stewart. Overall, it was an awesome experience, fun and all the people there were cool. I mainly stayed in a room waiting to be selected to be an extra for a scene, but I did meet two people that were very nice and friendly. There names are Leanna and Jesse; we even exchanged contact information to keep in touch! On top of that, I met a lady from Buffalo Casting that asked for my information so she could notify me of opportunities. (networking!!!) Yes! While I was on set for a scene, I experienced what it felt like to be filming a movie. Of course, we had to reshoot the scenes in different angles, but that is what makes the experience more exciting! I also got to see some of the actors and actresses acting in their scene, which helped me get an idea of acting for film. Also, it was cool because I heard and noticed that some of the main cast actors/actresses were from the TV show Degrassi. I never really watched the show, but I just thought it was so cool that I was able to work with some of these unbelievable artists. Believe it or not, I actually met one of the actors by the name of Hunter Garner. :) Thank you so much Simone for giving me the opportunity to work with such a wonderful cast and crew. I know I will always remember this awesome experience! This is my first step to the film industry because I have decided that in the future, I am auditioning for different roles in the film. I will do my best! Well, that's all. This week is SPRING BREAK! YAY!!! For everyone that is on Spring Break this week, have fun and relax! I know I will because we all deserve it. :) Have a good week everyone! Take care!

    P.S. Here is the IMDB link to the movie The Final if anyone is interested in checking it out. All I know is that this film is a Psychological Thriller... http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1390535/

    Funny Story of the Day!!!

    I was playing Guilty Gear X2 with my sisters today and I got my butt beat 3-4 times in a rol1. By then, I was really in a competitive mood and I felt annoyed with the game control because it felt greasy. Thus, I grabbed the windex and sprayed the control with it to clean it. Now guess what... I killed the control in attempt to clean it... The inside is wet, so the left and right keypads of the control are not working right. LOL!!! I am such NERD when I get competitive with games! Now I learned my lesson... LOL! T-T That means, I need to go get a new game control that ranges in price from $20-$24. (Sony Brand) If not a new control, I could get a USED one, but I am not sure if I should. *shrugs* G2G, Take care and have a great week!

    Advice: DO NOT SPRAY YOUR GAME CONTROLS WITH SOME KIND OF CLEANING SOLUTION BECAUSE YOU WILL KILL IT! LOL!!!

    First Step Towards My Dream

    Wow, I have not updated in a long time. Hope everyone has been enjoying their new year! This year, I decided to turn over a new leaf and started to live a proactive life. Guess what? I have finally overcome my inner barrier and took an acting class! Now I am officially a member of an acting organization called S.T.A.G.E. I took my first acting class with them called “Beginner’s Acting Class”. It took place every Saturday (4 sessions) from 1/31/09 – 2/21/09. I think the class was worth every penny because I gained a little more confidence in myself. I learned what a monologue was and performed two of my own. My instructor told the class about an acting technique called “Meisner” acting. This kind of acting primarily focuses on reacting to the other actor. In addition, I also went to my first audition, but I did not get a part. It does not matter to me though because I am happy to be able to gain the experience. Actually, I already got the script for the next audition I am planning to attend. Being an actress, I know that we will spend more time being rejected than actually getting the part, but that is ok because I know I will grow from those experiences. Eventually, I will find the part designated for me and I will be ready to embark on the journey! One more thing, I am so excited for Thursday February 26 because STAGE is holding a mixer that I am planning to attend. It would be a great opportunity to socialize and meet other people in the industry. Well, everyone take care and lets all do our best in living life to its fullest! J
