School has officially ended and I am quite please with the outcome. I dedicated the past few days to rest and relaxation with just a smidget of xmas shopping thrown in for good measure. My Xmas was festive and fiesty thanks to my dear cousin Gina. Now that Xmas is over I can concentrate on my NYE's trip to LA and learning these new tunes for my bday bash at the Cage and Escuelita. Both should be fun and memorable so hopefully I will see u there. Save the dates 1/5/10 and 1/10/10.

This Monday nite will be my final exam and class at Hudson County Community College. It was an engaging experience and one that I will always cherish. In May I will graduate with an Associates Degree in Liberal Arts and hopefully pursue a Bachelor's of Science degree in Nursing from Rutgers University in Newark. I can honestly say I thoroughly enjoyed the whole return to school encounter and I must admit it went quicker than I thought. My GPA is very good, in fact,during my two years I receieved only one B+ (Microbiology) and the rest were all A's and A-'s. I will keep you posted in my future scholastic endeavours and thanks for being there for me at this interesting period of my life. Take care and be well.

Well I did it and I'm still feeling it. A fifteen hour shoot in full drag for two scenes. I pray that you at least get to see a glimpse of me when the show airs. Vanessa Williams was very sweet and friedly as well as Rupual who plays the MC in the show. The guy who got the main part that I auditioned for was rumored to be Vanessa's real life brother. How about that? We chatted some and he told me it was only his second drag experience. That was clearly no secret.All in all, I did have fun, its just that the nite before I worked at Escuelita and stayed up the rest of the nite and then went straight to set. It's the longest I had ever gone with no sleep. The check will make for great Xmas shopping though. I will let u know when it airs.Take care and be well.

I am heading out in just a few minutes to tackle my first and hardest final exam of this semester:Microbiology. The course has really taken me for a loop but it's not the material, it's the professor. Her teaching and testing methods are just not effective or well put together. Despite my many attempts to study this material from several angles, none of it is really sticking. I ask that you say a prayer for me this morning. I am leaving for Florida right after the exam and if I am not happy with my grade in this course, B or better, I will retake it in the spring since this class is necessary for my major. I need to know that I am properly prepared for future academic challenges. In other news, my agent found out I was called for background work for Ugly Betty and he does not want me to do it. He feels it is beneath me and I deserve more. I feel trapped because I told people I was doing it and I would love to have a chance at being on the show even if I don't have a major part. I have until Monday morning to decide what to do so if anyone has any helpful advice please send it my way. The weather will be funky in this area over the weekend so dress accordingly and I will return Sunday for the T-dance.

So last Thursday I had the opportunity to audition for a guest spot on Ugly Betty, a show that I truly enjoy. The audition went well but unfortunately I didn't get the part. There is a big scene they are doing at a drag club and they asked me to do background work. Although I won't have a speaking part, I will be perched somewhere as the scene plays out. The best part about it is because I am a SAG member (actors union) I will still get paid for my time and effort. I will keep you all posted on when it airs. We shoot on Monday!

Healing
I am strong in spirit, mind and body.
It is natural to want to hurry the healing process when I am feeling unwell. I want to feel energy surge through my body, feel the strength of my muscles and the vibrancy of my being. But I heal more quickly when I rest and listen to my body the way I would a child seeking my attention. By asking, "What is it you need?" and actively listening to the reply, I can respond with care and wisdom.
During the healing process, I appreciate the complexity of my body, the pulsating of my heart, the intricacies of each organ and cell. I affirm that divine life and healing energy make me strong and healthy. I give thanks for my body's God-given capacity to heal.
For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light.--Psalm 36:9

Well it's a wet and dreary day and the snow is scheduled to start at 6:03pm. Not only did I not get a chance to hit the computer lab and organize my Microbiology final exam notes, I have a benefit engagement to attend tonite in Jersey City for Our Youth. Since I promised I would do it I am gonna go but I truly need to come straigh home and rest up so I can handle school business in the morning. Not looking forward to how bad the snow may get tonite but the show must go on. Chat soon and be well.

Today I had the pleasure of auditiong for an episode of Ugly Betty. It's a great part and I hope I get it. When i got to the audition some of NYC's finest female impersonators were there. We all chatted and shared gossip before taking our turn with the producers. I don't mind at all when I see familiar faces at an audition because SOMEBODY gotta get the job right? As long as one of my sisters get it or me, then it's all good. The weather was great too as I jumped on the 99s bus from JSQ to Port Authority NYC at 9am with my boy clothes and a painted face. The passengers gagged a bit upon seeing me but kept it moving peacefully. Oh well. It's 2009. Get used to seeing it cuz a girl aint got change for a cab all the time. Till next time, take care and God bless.

Please accept my most sinceere apologies for not reaching out to you all sooner. I have been going through some personal issues and just didn't want to burden you with them. I am well aware that these are hard times for all of us so I just kept to myself. School is winding down for the semester but I am gearing up for finals and it has taken alot of my time. Work at The Cage has been productive and steady but there is drama with my Sunday show. I am not receiving the respect that I feel I deserve at Escuelita anymore. As much as I try to create and organize a succesful party on Sunday's, it seems like my boss doesn't appreciate my efforts or even notice them. This is not a new phenomenon with him but it's finally starting to really upset me. If you have someone in your corner that is there to make things easier for you then act accordingly and at least respond with a yes, no or maybe in a timely fashion. Other than that I am healthy,single and looking forward to progessing in my scholastic and professional career. I promise you the updates will be more consistent and I appreciate your feedback. Be well and take care.
