I received an email from someone I met downtown Austin, just a friendly hello really from someone who found my website (it’s not hard). Then I saved it into a folder for successes, friendly hellos, and fan mail because occasionally I get these things. So then I started searching through my mailbox for the substantial things and found this again:
Ashley, Jamie and Cory,
Thank you so much for your interest in Big Ten! The casting is going to be held on Friday at 2pm at the Hotel Sheraton Corporation Sheraton Seattle Hotel, located at 1400 sixth avenue. You’ll be meeting with Annie Gillies and Andria Parides in the hotel lobby. Make sure not to wear white clothing, and bright colors work best! Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks so much
Lauren

MTV & MTV Tr3s Casting

That was from 2007, when I was one of 3 people selected for casting for that MTV show. Amazing, and what’s really incredible is the fact that it can’t be denying that I possess something that makes me worthy of this, and it reinstates all faith I have in my talent career. I didn’t get cast, but I’m okay with that. I was one of 3, out of thousands of applicants. Thousands. I still don’t believe it.

I like your determination and seeing this as a positive instead of a negative. I have found that having that quality is key to accomplishing my goals. Wish you the best on your adventure : )
