So a new year is upon us once more, and like my fellow bloggers my thoughts have been focussed on my resolutions for the next 12 months. I can't say that I have ever placed much emphasis on resolutions in the past, but that was when I was still in the bubble of education and had somewhere to be everyday with people telling me what I should be doing all the time. So I believe I have picked some achievable goals that will aid both my personal and professional life. 1. Learn to drive and pass my test before my birthday in May. 2. Take advantage of my gym membership more often. 3. Save money. So far this week I have had a driving lesson, been to the gym twice and haven't spent a penny where it wasn't needed. Things are going well! I may give an update in a couple of months to see if this dedication has continued.
As for my career prospects for this year... well at the moment it is all hinging on one audition.

I am preparing for a recall audition for a post-graduate course next
week, and if I get in (fingers crossed) that will be me set from
September through to the following June, and will therefore spend the
next seven months working myself to the ground to get some money
together. If I don't get in, which is highly possible given the number
of applicants and high standards, it will be business as usual.
However, the letter writing shall intensify, my attendance to workshops
will be at an all time high, and I shall practice my tap dancing like
there's no tomorrow!
I am not going to kid myself into thinking that this is 'my year', the year I'll get my 'break' or get noticed because it could turn out to be just as difficult as the last six months have been. As much as I may complain about the unpredictability of the acting profession, it is that very factor that gives me the grain of hope that maybe, just maybe, my chance is just around the corner.
