The Big Audition

Okay, since I'm totally wired from the caffeine right now I thought maybe I should do a post. Add that to the fact that I just got back from my audition and I'm feeling a bit of an adrenaline rush from that.

So my audition went okay. I was totally nervous a couple of days leading up to it, because this was a role I really wanted. It's a challenging role and for an actor, an opportunity like that is exciting. I was very nervous during the audition which is why I didn't deliver the monologue the way I wanted. I rehearsed and rehearsed, but when the moment counted, everything that I had rehearsed went out the window. It's so different when you're in the room with the director, and it's so quiet, and you're totally not used to the environment. I mean, I could feel my own heartbeat sitting in that audition room. It was a little nerve-wracking and because of that, it really threw me off while I did my monologue. I messed up on the lines a bit but I recovered nicely.

We chatted a bit before and after, and he seemed to like what I did with the monologue. Apparantly I read it differently from everyone else. I....hope that's a good thing. We talked a bit about the acting choice I made, and why I decided to play a certain emotion....stuff like that. So when I left, he seemed please and said "I'll hear from you again soon." Hopefully that's a good sign. :S Baaaahhhhhh!!!! I'm so glad it's over. I did a shitty job at the audition, but hopefully he saw something he liked.

Anyways, whether I get the role or not....I'm still glad I went. The director told me that he's gonna pass my name on to other directors because I might be good for other roles as well. So I guess auditioning isn't so bad! :D

TKE Pub Night

In other news, I finally went to a fraternity event on Friday. Tau Kappa Epsilon held a kick-ass pub event at The Thirsty Scholar. We did a little pre-drinkin' then headed out and danced the night away. I'll have to say....when we were on the dance floor and then we heard this: "Time goes by.....so slowly....Time goes by....so slowly....." we all went kinda crazy, lol. Madonna rocked the house.

Anyways, check out my Flickr page to see more pics from that night. That's about it!

Lataz y'all.
