Here we are!

Sarah Conner is my hero. Always has been, always will be. Why? Because she is hardcore. Because she holds the heart of the human race in her destiny. Because she has good hair. Because she makes swearing a female necessity. Because she terminates Terminators. Now, my life is in no way quite as dramatic or necessary as hers but I've got a few things to share and from somewhere down below I have answered an internal calling to write myself a blog.

Having sworn at the template maker for the past 45 minutes, I am ready to go.

So, 'here we are' as my acting teacher would say. I've just finished drama school, I've had the showcase for agents and casting directors and I'm now a fully trained professional actress. All I've got to do now is get employed, preferably in something involving theatrics!

I left my job as a paramedic 1 year ago and set about following my life long dream of going to drama school and becoming an actress. So far so good. No regrets. No looking back. Just a hell of a lot of stories to tell. A lot of them involving things that people think they want to know but on hearing realise they don't. Human beings are messy creatures, inside and out, especially when they have lost their faculties, I'll spare you the finer details...... for now.

So this is my journey into my dreams. From paramedic to actress. I might quote some Shakespeare, I probably quote some Terminator (it's an unusual but character defining obsession of mine), I'll try and make some sense, I'll defiantly use spell check and above all I'll be as honest as I can within publishable limits.

Things happening this week:

A meeting with a director about an exciting opportunity involving a project about idiots.
My first day with my acting agency (it's a co-operative so I do the agent side of it too)
I am DJing for a good friends wedding.
I have my first job as a childrens entertainer.

Come along for the ride.

Much love.
