Royal Pains Season Premiere Trailer
So, do you remember when I did a bus crash scene for Royal Pains a little while back? Little did I know that the episode we were shooting was for the Season 3 Premiere. I know...it's just background work, but I'm still excited!!! It's the first time I actually get to see my work made. Now, I actually haven't seen the full episode, but a friend of mine said she saw me. Unfortunately, the best I can do for you all right now is the trailer above. There are millisecond snip-its of me haha. When I find a streaming website, I will definitely post it. Oh and the recent Royal Pains episode I did background work for will be in episode 7. We'll just have to wait and see if I am seen or not.
As always, more updates are sure to come, so stay tuned (to your TV too!) :p

Another casual day
As you can see, no Story# today; but, I do have new and renewed goals.
After a busy day of running errands with my mom (got big things planned for Fri, Sat and Sun), I ended my night with Korean Dramas and recipe hunting...and then...I began thinking, maybe I should start some new traditions and set some solid goals.
Here they are:
First, every week I'm going to cook or bake something new. Pictures and/or descriptions will be posted under both Story# and Culinary labels. Second, I will do at least one work out per night -- Brazil Butt Lift, running, weight lifting, abs, etc. I've been having trouble staying consistent towards this goal, so hopefully putting some flexibility and variety into it will help me be a little more persistent.
-----
One day I will start anew and spend the rest of my life with "My Better Half" (Oh, the moods Korean Dramas will put you in...)
1. He thinks of the details I try to avoid.
2. He foresees the dangers I can't perceive.
3. He believes the future I lack faith in.
4. He picks up the pieces I let fall apart.
5. He listens to the stories I think are pointless.
6. He forgives the selfishness I cannot rid of.
7. He likes me for I really don't know why.
8. He thinks he's lucky but I know I am luckier.
9. He gives me the world I take for granted.
10. He says the words I'm afraid to say.
11. He showers the kisses that I cannot resist.
12. He prevents the situations in which I feel discomfort.
13. He respects the space I demand.
14. He cherishes my friends as if they were his own.
15. He knocks down the wall I try to hide behind.
16. He does the chores I put off.
17. He cooks the meals I crave.
18. He eats the leftovers I cannot finish.
19. He has the hair I absolutely obsess over.
20. He holds the hands I let wither away.
21. He is the better half I am thankful for everyday.
More updates to come!!

Story #40: First of many busy weeks
I wanted to get a post out right after "True Trumpet" but there has been absolutely no time to get it done until now. So sorry!
So without further adieu...
This past week has been really hectic. Everyday I have something to do, somewhere to go and someone to meet. And it's going to be this busy for the next couple of months!! :P
Last Tuesday on "True Trumpet", I literally sat for 3 hours, did filming for 45 min and then was wrapped. The filming was quick and painless, making the experience that much better. To top things off, it gave me an Aftra waiver! :)
Wednesday I didn't end up going to the conference but I did meet up with someone from Beryl Consulting Group after work. We did yoga and a little bit of kick boxing at Equinox and then learned a little about Beryl. And to finish the night we got a quick dinner.
Thursday was an early morning at "Royal Pains". Despite the crazy weather -- the random rain, wind and thunder -- and the long day, it was quite fun. We got to dress up, get our hair and make-up done, I had a good chat with Wilmer Valderrama about salsa and bachata, made new friends...what more could I ask for? Oh, and I obviously had to finish the night with something interesting...Royal Pains provided transportation from the Hamptons to 96th and 3rd Ave. Many of the extras were hoping that the bus would go a little further and drop us off at Grand Central or Penn Station, but that was not that case. Fortunately, I realized that the bus driver was Korean and while attempting to converse in broken Korean and befriending him, he agreed to drive me to Penn Station! Lucky me :)
Friday I baked for the AMAZING BBQ held on Saturday! This very credible chef and his family hosted a BBQ at their place in Rye, NY. The menu served was:
1. Pancetta Potato Skins w. Gorgonzola crumble
2. Cavatappi Salad w. Dill Mayo
3. Herb Baby Lambchops w. fresh mint glaze
4. Bacon wrapped Scallops
5. Orzo & corn salad w. basil truffle oil dressing
6. Coconut-lime curried shrimp
7. Pigs on a stick (andouille, cheddarwurst & sweet italian sausage)
8. Mom's chicken wings
9. 100% all beef sliders w. assorted toppings on garlic ciabatta roll
10. Hoisin black pepper ribeye skewers
11. Tarragon Lobster salad w. grilled baby endive
And my baked goods included my scrumpdiliumtious brownies, mini brownie cupcakes, a truffle-like dessert (with pecans, southern comfort and bourbon in it), and bourbon peach cobbler served with vanilla ice cream. We played beer pong, quarters, poker (4th place baby!), and chilled a whole lot. Good food + good company = great times.

Story #39: Hooray!
hoo·ray or hur·ray
yay, yipee, hurrah, hooray, woot, woohoo, cheers, yahoo -- awesome!
Today I will be working with casting members on the pilot "Time Trumpet." It's the same background work as usual except this time I am a gps hanger (??) concert goer. On Wednesday, I may attend some sort of hedge fund conference where I will represent a hedge fund consultant group as an analyst. Who knows, maybe I'll love it and change my profession ;P And on Thursday, I will being working on Royal Pains for the second time. I am not sure what I will be playing, but I loved working on Royal Pains the first time around so the second time should be just as fun to work on.
So...what's the out-of-the-ordinary excitement? While working on "The Trumpet", I will be receiving a 30 day Aftra waiver. This means, for the next 30 days, I will be able to work as if I were part of the Aftra Union! In order to take full advantage of this, I will be working extra hard to get more work. I can't wait!

Story #38: Fall Forward
"I found that nothing in life is worthwhile unless you take risks…I never understood that concept, having something to fall back on. If I’m going to fall, I don’t want to fall back on anything, except my faith. I want to fall forward" spoken words by Denzel Washington at UPenn's 2011 Commencement
"Reggie Jackson struck out 2,600 times in his career, the most in the history of baseball; but, you don't hear about the strike outs, people only remember the home runs...fall forward"
"Thomas Edison conducted 1,000 failed experiments, but we don't know that because the 1,001st was the light bulb...fall forward"
You've got to take risks, why?
1) You will fail at some point in your life, accept it. You will lose, you will embarrass yourself, you will suck at something. There is no doubt about it. -- You have the training and the talent to succeed but do you have the guts to fail?
2) If you don't fail, you're not trying! -- "To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did!" "Imagine you are on your deathbed and standing around your deathbed are the ghosts representing your unfulfilled potential. The ghost of the ideas you never acted on. The ghosts of the talent you didn't use. And they're standing around your bed, angry, disappointed and upset. They say, we came to you because you could have brought us life, and now we have to go to the grave together."
3) "...here's my last point about failure...Sometimes it's the best way to figure out where you're going. Your life will never be a straight path..."
"To not only take risks, but to be open to life. To accept new views and to be open to new opinions...while it may be frightening, it will also be rewarding. Because the chances you take, the people you meet, the people you love, the faith that you have, that's what's going to define you."
----
Such an encouraging speech by such a respectable man.
Although I may be wearing myself out thin at times and maybe even exploring options...too much, I will know that I have fulfilled all my curiosity. I will know that I have acted on all my ideas and pushed the boundaries of the potential I have in all aspects of my life.
If you're curious about today's audition, it lasted all of 5 minutes haha, and it was good. They were friendly, we had a good time, and I worked through my nerves. I'm pretty sure they liked me, but I don't know if they liked me enough to give me the role. So, I guess we will just have to give it time and find out! Cross your fingers, pray, and wish me luck! :)

Story #37: Mood = Anxious (Back in "Action")
anx·ious
Conflicting feelings during a decision making process that make you feel like you need to split yourself into two or more different directions has a tendency to make me feel anxious. To make matters worse, when decisions matter the most, there is generally a strict time constraint. As I was finishing up my internship at One Stop, I had to choose whether if I would take it on full time, go back to acting/modeling or start a new journey. After days of talking and venting, I reached a decision to go back to acting and modeling.
Working background on "Girls" today, and finding out that I have an audition tomorrow, I have growing confidence in the decision I made. I am so excited about the new experiences I will soon be encountering. Wish me luck and pray for me!
