ok heres my dilema, im an actor living in Los Angeles (or...well, trying to be anyways) and my natural hair color is a strawberry blonde (i have fair skin, and some freckles), and just recently I was accepted into a theme park acting as a character, the job pays great and is alot of money...the only drawback...my hair needs to be black to fit the character description, and wigs wont do.

my question really is, as an actor trying to get cast as an extra or get represented into an agency, would it be wise to have a hair color that isnt my natural color? its not that I look "bad" with black hair, its just obviously not natural what with my fair complexion and freckles. Would that affect my chances of getting acting jobs? What do you guys think? Its alot of money but if it will impact my acting career then I might not want to do it.

Look Deeper

The world of darkness I have created continues to grow darker.
There is nothing solid-- not that there ever was.
I look at myself hoping to find the little girl I lost.
But all I see is a stranger looking back at me.

I look deeper and still I cannot recognize this girl.
I want peace, but continue to surround myself with conflict.
I can never validate myself; I have to look to others.
This is how it has always been.

I always hit a brick wall when my emotions start to take control.
This mental roadblock is solid, but not something worth keeping.
There is no rational in my mind, only chaos.
Nothing I ever decipher makes sense.

Everything is so intense for me and my grip on it is too weak.
My connections both internal and external are diminishing.
It is the same cycle that I try hard to break.
But I do not have the confidence to break it.

The real me is toxic, that is all I see.
That person is not worth knowing.
That is very sad indeed, because everyone has worth.
I have never been able to find my own though.

There is good in me and there is bad.
Every time I attempt to look deeper, I close my eyes.
I do not want to know this stranger.
But she needs me.

Okay,
So I've been thinking A LOT about this.

First let's figure our Voldemort's age.
In the 2nd book, it is mentioned that the Chamber of Secrets was last opened 50 years ago. And it was Voldemort.
In the diary he is his 16 year old self. So at that time, his real age (even though he doesn't have a body) is 66. Four years go by, Harry is 16, Voldemort is 70.
That seems all right.

But than,
In the sixth book, in Slughorn's memory, we see Voldemort again, in his school years, with his friends. One of them called "Lestrange", Bellatrix's future husband. But Bellatrix can't be much older than 40-45, can't she? 30 years between her husband, and her?

Have I made a mistake?
Or do you think this is meant to be this way?

Do I deserve to be alive.

I don't want to live anymore, and I want to go to heaven and be with God.

I deserve to go to heaven and be with God forever. So when I am not busy I am going to make plans to go on and do that. I am going to leave this world forever and go to heaven. I need to see God.

Why live when you can go to a better place and be with God.

So I ended up seeing the movie today and I got to thinking about something that I hadn't thought of with the book. What house would Umbridge have been in when she was in school? She certainly seems a lot nastier in the book than the movie (and she certainly was nasty in the movie though I don't recall her admitting to sending the dementors after Harry) and would seem to fit the comment about not a witch or wizard who went bad that wasn't in Slytherin. But she seems very loyal to Fudge (I personally believe it's more out of the fact that if he's removed she may loose her position as Undersecertary to the Minister) and loyalty was something the Sorting Hat said was a feature of Hufflepuffs in the first book. Though she doesn't fit the just part at all.

Personally, I think Slytherin from her actions and the way she treats non-wizard magical beings, but she could have been in a different house. What do you folks think?

I have acted in productions in high school and college. I have not pursued any professional acting role but always thought that it would be fun. I do not have any formal training, but have found that I do have some natural ability. Does anyone have any advice, in this area, for someone with little "resume" experience? I am looking especially for advice from those that are currently working or have worked in this industry, though any advice would be greatly appreciated.

would you lovely people mind telling me what you think of my poem?

I'm more of a thoughtful analysis sort of person, but I happened to find this sandwiched between momentum equations and trig notes in my notebook and I thought it to be one of my better poems. So, here goes:

I like the idea of 'kind of perfect',
of the sweet resonation of chords
accompanying sweeter sounds spoken.
Simple spontaneity.
Planning may equal perfection,
but sometimes 'sort of' is better than 'all of'.
How beautifully brevity can result.
He who said 'What is started must be finished,'
obviously overlooked the in-betweens.
No, perfection hardly matters when heart takes the stage.

“If you see your path laid out in front of you -- Step one, Step two, Step three -- you only know one thing... it is not your path. Your path is created in the moment of action. If you can see it laid out in front of you, you can be sure it is someone else's path. That is why you see it so clearly.” ....Joseph Campbell.


We can see very clearly during the day, but at night we can certainly see further, even at the stars far away. Darkness is not so bad after all, and deep within us, when we close our eyes, we can find darkness, but could we also find a star? Where are you looking for your star?

Thanks for your comments!

GOODBYE, ROMEO
by Saint John
from the forthcoming album "All That I Bleed"


Montagues and Capulets;
Omniscient in their love's
Betrayals and desecrations
Forgiving: one's false aplombs

(verse)
Thus, I have been true to YOU!
Too star-crossed to see...
Captive of my own verities;
I writhe to be deemed!

Is there naught to extricate
A romance's remonstrance?
Beatific within oneself--
I digress with lips pressed to chance...

(chorus)
Hands once clasped by letting go
Goodbye Juliette, goodbye Romeo

(verse)
Interpolated bygones and byfores
A rose's tomb in a sunken palm--
Withering with each thorned season
To save for the promise of dawn?

I reason with devotion,
Parting ways to save eminence--
Please grant me immunity,
A supplicant's privation of circumstance

(chorus)

Tinder tenderness, almost admired...

A rose in my sunken palm
Shall one day grow
For a fair maiden I cantillate--
I, Romeo...
