As we get closer and closer to the end of 2010 {already, really?} I figured it was time for me to take a moment and congratulate myself on the goals I've achieved this year. To kick things off, let's start with a really cute compilation of my facebook status updates in 2010...
My favorite status of the year has to be when we played the question and answer game. For those of you who aren't familiar, your facebook friends would ask you a question in your inbox. You'd then answer that question in your status without mentioning who it was who asked you the question in the first place. The question I loved answering the most was as follows:
Q: If you were single and without children how hard and long would you pursue acting as a career?
A: As long as it takes... which is the same answer that I have now even with the husband and kids. There's no set time. While I'd love to be a series regular on a hit TV show right now, that may not happen for 10 or 15 years. But guess what? I'll still be here trying to make it happen because I have to.
And I really believe that. Having a family doesn't change my goals, it just altars the way I go about attaining them.
Speaking of goals, here's what I accomplished this year...
And these are the classes I took...

Speaking of goals, here's what I accomplished this year...
- Produced my first project: Diary of a Wedding Planner. Though we are far from done, we have gotten 2 episodes shot and online for the world to see.
- Helped produce the pilot episode of the webseries Millie's 101 Things.
- Became SAG-eligible thanks to DWP.
- Booked a regular gig doing interstitials for Santa Monica's City TV.
- Got my first two listings on IMDb.
- Ate much more healthy than I ever have before.
And these are the classes I took...
- Killian's Commercial Workshop (4 weeks) LOVE and will be taking a refresher next year.
- Private Coaching with Amy Lyndon (1 60 min. session) She knows her stuff.
- Self-Management for Actors Seminar aka Class Rules! (5 weeks) Every actor should take this class.
There are definitely some areas I fell short, some things I need to change subtly and some things that need a major overhaul and I'll get to all of those in the next post. For now, I'm patting myself on the back for a year well done.
