2 month anniversary

Today is my two month anniversary here in LA. I found myself reflecting on all I've done, and the so much more that I need to do, and thought to share....

DONE
- found a place to call home near westwood after an interesting apt/roommate search ("life is like a roommate search off of craig's list postings, you never know....")
- found acting classes I (mostly) like
- printed up bcards and pcards; the bcards have come in handy in getting people to laugh; the pcards go out tomorrow
- joined The Actor's Network, where I pay to have friends; kinda like a co-ed frat, except instead of 'keggers' we have "what can you do for me" events. No, that's too brutal...it's actually a pretty cool org; for example, I attended a "type me" session yesterday...kinda surprising to see what 14 other actor types think of me at first glance. I mean, do I really come across as 'ethnic'??
- found a job SAT tutoring, which I start next week (still don't know what SAT stands for though)
- registered with the three main casting websites and had eight auditions with several call backs
- beverages/bites with actor/director/agent types
- had Seth and Young take headshots and added a few of the pictures to my website
- started a blog :)

Not bad for two months, huh?

TO DO (in the next two months)
- enroll in a commercial class (I know, I know...but commercials pay...I'll be picky, don't worry)
- finish my reel (!)
- get two monologues down (at some auditions, they ask you to recite a monologue...anyone got any suggestions? I wonder if I can pull off this one from Pulp Fiction)
- get new headshots (professional ones though...no offense Seth and Young)
- assemble a list of casting directors/directors/producers I want to target; harass the hell out of 'em
- drop-offs at commercial agencies (will help in getting a commercial agent...will also get me yelled at)
- book a role! (out of my control, but I'm still going to put it on the list)

Yikes. Okay, lots to do...back to work...(that goes for you too, Osi)
