My First Training Day!

Today was my first official day with MDM Talent. Sunday, after sending in my headshots and resume, MDM Talent Agency of Washington D.C. called me in for an interview and audition. I performed a solid monologue and did a great interview and guess what? They really liked me! They called me back and asked me to be a part of their talent team. MDM is an up and coming talent agency with branches in New York and D.C. Just recently, they have begun setting up a branch in D.C. They are very selective and exclusive and I was so honored to be chosen by them to help me follow my dream of becoming an actress.

So today, I met with Michael McDavitt, a wonderful gentleman who started MDM, partnering with his mother, Diane McFarland (a former model, might I add). Quite the family! Anyway, I began with Michael today as my coach and we worked on slating. Slating is when an actor or actress (such as myself) introduces themself in front of a camera or agent. They say their name, age, where they live, and what agency they are apart of. Sounds easy, right? It was actually fairly extensive. You have to envelop the essence of who you are in that short segment with your body language and voice, infusing your actions with your personality. Michael and I were bouncing all over the place, getting loose and energized, having a great time. And directly after, I would launch into my slating. It was very fun and relaxing. Refreshing! Anyway, besides that, I was introduced to what we would be working on and I have to tell you, I am really excited :)

What to do for that special someone---a nice date night at home

Some people get lover's block. It's a phenomenon I just made up where you run out of creative juices and don't know what the heck to do for your significant other. Maybe you've been together for a looooooong time and you've run out of fresh ideas. Or maybe you're just a romantic noob. From a female's perpective, I've got great tips on what you can do to turn an ordinary night into a very sweet one. Check out the video on my facebook page :)

Intro to me

So, I'm going to need a lot of time to tell you all the craziness of my life and the nuances that go along with it. I apparently posted a blog when I was just "The Average American Teenager," but honestly I don't remember much about said blog. I want to tell my story and inspire others, relate to people, I'm not one hundred percent sure what exactly, but I will touch lives if possible.

Oh yeah, one more crucial detail about me I forgot to mention. I'm going to be famous. At least by some degree. Mark my words. I'll get there somehow. It's not just a little girl dream anymore. I'm really doing it. I'll post something to that effect later. But in a teeny tiny short story, my past is FRIGGIN crazy and currently, I'm on my way to becoming an actress. But anyway, starting out these series of blogs, I'd like to say hello. And if any of you out there are reading this and just mildly curious to hear my voice on anything, let me know! I'll be posting and I want to hear feedback and reactions from the general public.

Thanks guys! I love you already :)
