*Pisshhhh* Rain... no problem.

Hi there ladies! NYC is going well right now. I just had a visit from Lora. She approved of NYC, which was a huge weight off my shoulders. Moving was my decision to make but, it somehow made it complete knowing my mother approved and was proud of me. She cried you guys. Seriously cried. She said she was so proud to see me living life for me. Sheesh…. double W much? Worrier and weeper. At least I know where I got it from :/ Anyhoo, we had a great time. And by the way Haley, she thought Chris was awesome. “He’s so mature” she said. “It comes with the whole “Bout 40” territory” I told her.  She just stared at me and said“Ohhh I see. Well good for Haley. She has always had an old soul.” I’m getting him a t-shirt for Christmas that says “Moms like you choose Chris”.

My last day working on the Al Pacino movie was last week. I was looking forward to kicking back and relaxing plus getting started with all my acting craziness (the agent search, open auditions etc.). I got a call on my last week of work from the costume designer that worked on the film. She was starting a new independent movie and wanted to know if I would like to intern. I was out of my mind excited. She said it was a small project which would allow her to teach me a lot on set. They only shoot for 10 days. So, on Nov 8^th, I will be interning in Costume design!! On top of that, I also received a call that week from another production that needed a clerk, I told them about the internship and they said that I could leave to do it and possibly get to come back after! The film is a Sci-Fi space flick staring the guy from “District 9”. I started yesterday. So things are going great, great and more great. No seriously… more great is not even the word. Today I got another call from a girl who also worked on the Al Pacino movie. She is a stylist and has a photo shoot coming up soon. She wanted to know if I would be her assistant. It is for 2 days over the weekend so, I said yes!!!  Through all these amazing things, I can’t help but to feel a little guilty that I am slacking on the acting work. But, opportunities are being thrown my way and, I feel that they can do nothing but benefit me. I have to see where this path is going, ya know?

Lets see… ahh yes. I told you before that I am transitioning from relaxed to natural hair. That means no more perms!! I am currently 3 month post relaxer and I can already see my hair changing. What happens during the transition process is that you grow your hair naturally and when it gets to the length you desire, you cut of the relaxed(straight ends). I am going to try to transition for a long, long while. Here’s a picture to describe what I mean.

The curly part is her natural hair. She grew out her relaxed hair (which are the straight ends). When it gets to where she wants it, She'll cut off the straight ends and her hair will be all natural.

Right now while my hair is growing, I have to treat it as if it’s already all natural. So, I deep condition and detangle my hair once a week and grow it out. I have to style it without using heat. And, I have to make the straight ends look like my naturally curly hair while doing this process (or else I will look like quite a fool). Here’s what it looks like right now!

Sorry about the blurry. In a couple of years, I hope to be awesome like this badass lion girl:

Alrighty ladies, thats whats goin on with me right now. I can't wait to see you girls over the holiday! As you can probably tell from my email happy typing, I am so excited to hang with 502. Love ya lots!
