I haven't been posting as much lately as I should have, but that is because for the last month or so, I've been working on a web series. If you follow my reading/writing blog Precarious Reader, you may have read my post Derailed in which I mentioned that I had put aside the novel on … Continue reading Pitching a Web Series
An Edmonton Overnighter
I recently got my first booking through my agent since signing with her a year and a half ago. I've gotten a few callbacks before, and I've been booking roles that haven't been through my agent, but this was the first proper booking, so that was exciting. On top of that, it was in Edmonton. … Continue reading An Edmonton Overnighter
The Quest for Constant Contentment
Life has become mundane. I had an epiphany last week. I was thinking about the times in my life I was happiest—not moments, but weeks. Months. Years. And they're really easy for me to identify. The three months I spent in Quebec as part of a student exchange in eleventh grade. The three years I … Continue reading The Quest for Constant Contentment
Ming’s Dynasty
Way back in December, I got cast in my first union role as Kelli in Ming's Dynasty. I got to be on set for two days for this project and it was so much fun! The project itself is also super funny and creative. ...and it's out now! If you're in Canada, you can watch … Continue reading Ming’s Dynasty
My Trinket Wall
This is sort of a continuation of my last post, Room Makeover: A Personal Touch. So check that out first, if you want. Since I first left for England for university, before I even began this blog, I've kept little things. When I started, I thought I might scrapbook them or something, but turns out … Continue reading My Trinket Wall
Room Makeover: A Personal Touch
When I last updated you guys on my room at my mom's, it was in this post. Well, I've made a few changes since, and I think this is as close to done as it'll ever get. And you know what? I like it. For my workspace, I got my desk from Ikea during their … Continue reading Room Makeover: A Personal Touch
Outfit of the Week: BossLady
They say you gotta dress for the job you want, so when I went to the job fair that ended up leading to my new job, I took that to heart. This is what I wore: That's me trying really hard to look good with all my makeup rubbed off from the course of the … Continue reading Outfit of the Week: BossLady
An Acting Weekend
I've had a busy weekend. First of all, you should know I got a job. It's a part-time thing and it came in the nick of time, according to my bank account. I don't know what this means for the acting thing. At first I thought it meant I'd just have to quit acting, since … Continue reading An Acting Weekend
A Day in Kananaskis
I've gotta say, filming vlogs every day for my month in Vietnam last summer was one of the best things I could have done in order to learn vlogging and figure out my new camera. On Saturday my dad and I went to Kananaskis for a little day trip. My camera skills have improved greatly … Continue reading A Day in Kananaskis
The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue
That's a really long title. This is a really long post. It was going to be a book review but it turned into more of a book report. You've been warned. I recently finished The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue by Mackenzi Lee. It's a YA historical adventure fiction story, but written with modern-style prose … Continue reading The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue
