So, my first film audition in awhile and guess what the part is!!???
A fat girl!
Okay, so not fat exactly - "less than svelte and not a little imposing"

HAVE YOU EVER MET ME?

Okay, so I guess some of you actually, technically, haven't.
5'1 (and a half I guess)
117 pounds (I don't actually own a scale, but last time I weighed myself, it was around there)

Oh yeah, the character is also a lesbian, and an action star fighter-girl.................

There's something remarkably freeing about going out for a part that I have no hopes of getting.
Usually when it's a big American movie all of these parts have actually been cast already, but under ACTRA guidelines (or something) they have to audition a certain amount of local performers. I feel like casting directors use these opportunities just to see people - it has little to do with the actual character being cast, and more with who they feel like having a look at.
But that's just a theory.



Still on my cleanse.. I had a nap this afternoon (surprise) and I dreamt almost entirely of eating sugar. I kept accidentally eating it and then feeling really guilty and then eating more and more and more sugar.
I'm not actually that crave-y in real life, but I am pretty heartily addicted to sugar.
I'm living off strawberries and off apple slices with almond butter. Yeah huh.

Oh yeah, also, I'm off coffee for the next little bit. It was fun being addicted to it for awhile there, but now it's time to go back to it giving me that Ultimate High every one in awhile. I'm tired.



I'm still feeling pretty shitty so it's okay if I share this self-indulgent story.

My cousin's wedding took place in Waseca, Sask. this weekend, and I didn't get to go because I'm stuck all up in this big smoke, living the dream, etc. But one of my girl-cousins told my mum this story:
Her boyfriend and her are watching TV and the ice breakers commercial comes on and her boyfriend says "Oh, there's that girl" and my cousin is like "what do you mean?" and he says "well the guys all think she's hot" (and by "guys" he means the military firefighters he works with!!) and then my cousin is all "That's my cousin!"

So. In conclusion, you know who I'm big with?
Firefighters
Asians (I know this because of plentyoffish and because Sass is totally always trying to hit this)
17-year-old boys


It's funny because I don't even look particularly hot in that ad, Mum says it's because I look approachable. Like I wouldn't shut them down. Which is kind of hilarious since I am quite the opposite in real life. I have so ridiculously little patience for idiot-babes being idiots. Especially if the idiocy involves hitting on me.

No, jk, babes! Hit on me!
Well, in 12 days anyhow. When I've cleansed myself and become a born-again virgin.

Ew.
