Atlanta

Leaving for Atlanta tommorow. Yea!!! So excited. I have three auditions and my mom's friend is taking me to meet her agents. It's funny how I could careless about a man right now or if one even exists. Love it! I really need to get back to my deep insightful blogging but when I'm happy I can find nothing to write about.

Charleston Blotter O" The Week

On Feb. 5, a woman who lives downtown burst into a local girl's home, yelling, "Are you fucking my husband?" The woman, who had about six inches and 60 pounds on the girl, punched her in the mouth and kicked her when she fell to the ground. The best part? The woman was 26, and the girl was 15. Gotta love it!

Hit Me Baby One More Time

Holy Poodles! I got cast in another indie. This one films in Charleston and I play a woman who is stuck in an elevator. Apparently I have been stealing important documents from this corporation and when the elevator gets unstuck a security guard is waiting for me and I take him out. Hell Yeah!!! I may also shoot another film about a woman who is stealing babies and selling them to the Black Market for my friend Jared. He's in film school down here and asked me to do it. My schedule conflicts so I don't know if I will be able to do it. I keep getting cast as these psycho women. My website is back up www.brandiboone.com and I have a photo shoot scheduled for next Tuesday. Things are looking up. Hope all is well in the big O-H-I-O. Oh and Hilton Head is awesome. I spent my summers there growing up. It's really laid back. Not a party place. Very Lily Pulitzer wearing, Jimmy Buffet listening people with a Pina Colada in hand and a kid in tow. Very Upscale though. Lots of Rich Kids driving beemers and benzs around the Island. It's been awhile since I have been there. I may just have to visit while your there.

Got Cast In "Category Five"

Well I got cast in another indie called "Category Five". It shoots in Savannah this weekend and the next weekend and I also have another audition for another film while I'm there. I'm so excited. I have auditions for "Once Upon A Mattress" coming up and then I'm going to Atlanta for another audition March 11th. God I love Acting!

Thank God 4 Moms!!

Okay so I am not going to L.A for the festival. After thinking long and hard and talking to my Mom for three hours about it I have decided to wait to go out to L.A. I got a big sum back from my tax returns and I want to use the money wisely. My new plan is to save,save,save send out mass mailings of my headshot along with a copy of my reel and see what responses I get from that. If I do or don't get any response I am going to fly out to L.A for two weeks to make contacts before officially moving. I want to build my resume and my reel as much as possible before conquering Hollywood. I really have to stand out when I go there. I'm going to train and work at my craft like crazy before so I can be the best of the best. I'm learning how to network and be a professional. I am my business and I have to market myself like I am the best damn thing since sliced bread. I am in a good area to market so I'm going to go for it full force. I have a new babysitting service going and getting lots of new clients. I am still starting my new job on the 13th of March with the pre-school but I'm having second thoughts. I may babysit/nanny and pick up a hostessing/waitress job to cover the bills so I can have a more flexible schedule. That will all come in due time. Confidence is the key to success!!

Destiny

Controlling my destiny. I think I finally figured out that I'm the only one who can control it. You know how your thoughts and feelings kind of lead you through life and help you to make decisions? Well my thoughts are leading me in the direction of continuing to pursue my dreams. We all get insecure and have those moments of doubt but I haven't been questioning myself lately like I normally do. It's kinda like I know what has to happen or else. I've been reading some of my old posts and revisiting the old me. It's very scary but I understand now why I had to go through all of that pain. I had to get strong. I feel so strong now. So yea I had another fucked up dating situation but I've narrowed it all down that maybe I am just too much for these guys. I think they see that fire that burns inside me and they know that I am destined for more. I love how guys get so scared that you are going to take their life away if things get serious. Every situation I have been in involves things getting deeper and in never fails. The guy bails on me. This time though it didn't cut like before. I guess I'm numb to it now. I cried for a total of 2 hours and now I'm fine. I mean of course I'm dissapointed but he just wasn't the right one I guess. I don't even care about that anymore. I used to be so hung up on finding the right one because I thought it would complete me. I should have known that acting is the only thing that will ever complete me. I know that in order for me to allow myself to be loved I have to love myself first and in saying that I must complete myself. The only way to do that is to follow my dreams. That will complete me. I will have no regrets if I do this for myself. We all have this voice within us that guides us and gives us the feeling if things are right or wrong and the voice in me now says to Go for it and don't hold back.
