Yes, my friends, I am indeed alive. However, I have been extremely busy the last few weeks as I have not been writing. In fact, I have to go to a meeting in like five mintues, but as I said, I am trying to update as often as possible.

Finished the novel Dances with Wolves and it was great. I just started the Da Vinci Code and it has already captured me. I am not sure which one I will do for my book review, but by the time it is due, I might have a few books to choose from.

I've fallen in love with acting all over again since I've joined some formal schooling. I don't know what I would do in my life if I couldn't act. I love it that much. Oh God, it's my dream and I'm tearing up right now when I think about the long and difficult journey I will make when I become a profession actress. People tell me that the chances for such are low, that what I what to do is impossible, even though I am very talented. But know what? It's not because I will push myself so hard and knowing that I feel complete when I act is something so genuine and rare. Really, I can't tell you through words.

Well, I must close for now. Sadly, my life has been almost out of control, but I love it. I have a four-day weekend coming up and so I am really looking foward to that and updating my site.

Love ya,

I know how ya feel about the whole acting thing. I almost don't want to tell people that I want to be an actress anymore 'cause they're all like, "Oh . . . that's a nice dream." No. It's not a dream. It's a goal. "Shouldn't you try for something more tangible?" "That's not a very stable job." "What if you're not successful?" "Why don't you just be normal, like everyone else?" "You want to be an actress? You're such a dork!"

And just so you know, those are all things people have said to me before. Horrible, isn't it?
