shell we? ahaha!

An unexpected connection is the best kind of all. Especially when it’s an unexpected connection with someone you’ve wanted to connect with, but wondered if you ever would. An ordinary night becomes extraordinary. A smile means oh so much more. And you realize when you’re following through with something you need to do, (sometimes) your own needs are surprisingly fulfilled too. Uh huh uh huh.

Don’t want to get into details ‘cuz like with an audition if you talk too much about it before it’s really a sure thing, it can go…  POOF! Read the rest of this entry »

remixing my life

I’m all about a good remix these day, aren’t you? As we all face another challenging week (for me it’s about finding the funny with scary CD’s, ER horror stories, looking for love, and mixed messages), let’s get in the rhythm with —

is romance short-handed?

Today’s #findthefunnymonday question asks — What’s the deal with GUYS and TEXTING?

It seems like constant texting gives guys the sense that they’re with us, without actually having to put in the time.  Anyone else noticing this? OMG! I’m sure “Texting” was invented by a GUY. Right?

Texting = Communicating?

Do we truly connect when we text? Depends. Getting to say what you want to say in as few words as possible and then being done with it is a Guy’s DREAM. Obvi. But Women need more. Much more.

If you Google “texting” you get all kinds of advice from “Flirty Text” to “Dirty Text.” I might just have to try out this flirt-fave I just found online  —

still trying to figure it out

Life —

• It doesn’t go in a straight line
• It’s not according to plan (not mine anyway)
• When you think something’s gonna happen it doesn’t
• And when you least expect it to, it does

Life disappoints, surprises & warms our hearts.

Pilot Season is —

• Challenging
• Exhilarating
• Scary
• Stimulating
• Disappointing
• Depressing
• Promising

As an Actor I can (and do) go from extreme highs to a deep lows within just a matter of days (sometimes within hours). In the last few weeks I’ve gone from pre-reads to call-backs with producers to negotiations about quotes, to signing contracts, testing and then not getting the parts. It’s like those old-fashioned board games where you almost get to the end and then end up at the beginning… Read the rest of this entry »

rise to the top

We all have them |think about them | wish they’d come true. Some of us actually make sure they do come true. I’m trying to become one of those laser-focused Actors but it’s a challenge sometimes, obvi.

DREAMS —

• Push us forward
• Encourage risks (the good kind) Read the rest of this entry »

be your own make-up artist

Continuing the Evie Stewart Lifelong Quest to look professional (and as good as possible) each and every time I have an audition, a meeting, or just show up for a temp job —  here are two beauty must-haves that I can’t seem to live without.

In A Girl’s Essentials (part 2, skincare) I touched on the importance of keeping skin looking as young and fresh and unlined as possible.  We can’t all afford to have as many facials as we’d like (at least I can’t) so a great alternative to spending time and money in a spa is the — Read the rest of this entry »
