Inside THIS Actors Studio

“A celebrity is a person who works hard all his life to become well known, then wears dark glasses to avoid being recognized.” -Anonymous

Hello Faithful Followers,

In honor of this three day weekend and the mediocre weather viciously plaguing my life, I chose the most fitting way to spend my day. After hours of risking my life at the mall amidst the crazed sale chasers and bargain hunters, I settled in for a good movie starring my beloved Jake Gyllenhaal and Tobey Maguire.

"Why a movie?" you might be asking yourself (and if you weren't-you are now). The answer is simple: When I move to Los Angeles, I'm going to become the next big star to hit the Hollywood Hills. Move over Megan Fox, Sophie has made her way to the set! (For everyone in HGLO-don't worry there is no need to start searching for an RD.....yet!)

But really, whether we believe it or not, each a of us is an actor each day. Sometimes we are forced to act in a role that we may not like while at other times we are crossing our fingers the "director" won't yell, "cut". At times our role may seem boring, sometimes we may feel like the victim and at others we are the heroines. Yet at the end of the day shouldn't we just be happy that we are still living, breathing and acting? As actors we face daily conflict, tears, laughter, joy, awkward moments and even a little romance. It is essential that each and every one of us makes the most of our role so that when the final credits begin to roll we know that an Oscar is awaiting us. We must act with courage and conviction, with love and with compassion, with humor and serenity and most importantly with dignity and integrity.

So as I sit and wait for my knight in shinning armor to make his way into the scene with heroic music in the background, I encourage you to wear those dark sunglasses, to block off those nasty UV Rays (this is Los Angeles) and to most importantly soar above the haters. Embrace your inner celebrity, and be the star of the major motion picture that you live day in and day out.
