IMDB & Sickness

So I got myself an IMDB page/resume, check it out here. Its one step towards stardom haha. One day hopefully there will be credits in there. Also, I need to add more pics to it.

I came down with something yesterday, I think its food poisoning, but I don't know what I'm talking about when it comes to shit like that. I had this small amount of discomfort all day yesterday, and for dinner I had a meat-lovers from the Pizza Factory. After consuming the greasy slices, it all went down hill from there. I felt worse than Lindsey Lohan sober. Everything solid in my body turned to pure liquid, which made the frequent toilet trips all more enjoyable :). Sigh.

Thanksgiving & Unemployed

So today is Thanksgiving, and it totally doesn't feel like it... at all. I'm in Hemet, CA; staying with my girlfriends family and her. I've lived on the East coast my entire life (when I was living in the US). I'm used to cold outside, warm and toasty inside Thanksgivings. In Hemet, its 2 degrees away from fuckin' hot outside. Hopefully I will be able to make it back to Virginia for Christmas, hopefully.

So I'm still unemployed... I hate looking for a job, its the most discouraging thing I know. What I really want to do is be an actor/writer. I just have NO clue how to get into that. I mean, writing is writing, so I just write what I want, and my ideas for screenplays. But acting, I called about 5 agencies (which probably isn't enough), and they all go by referrals.

I saw Fred Claus with Maggie this past weekend, and although I kind of liked it, it was boring as shit. A few laughs here and there, but watching Vince Vaughn do the same shit in every movie gets old, quick. You know what I'm talking about, his signature "ramble on about something until he somehow changes the subject and confuses the person in which hes trying to lecture". Paul Giamatti is one of my favorite actors, and was great as Santa, likewise for Kevin Spacey. Probably the biggest letdown for Fred Claus was the CG (computer graphics). The CG on the elves were nothing less than terrible. I'm not sure what the budget was, but it all looked very lazy. After watching the movie though, I think the only real good parts in the movie were the panning shots of Eliebeth Banks from her legs up in an elf suit. I'm a little disappointed in Director David Dobkin, who brought us Wedding Crashers. Maybe his next flick The Flash, will make up for this disaster.

Unemployed

Well Syneron let me go on Monday, which I guess now allows me to go on about the job when I could'nt previously lol. Their reasons were that they wanted someone with a higher skillset. The funny thing is when they hired me, and ran down the list of job requirements, I responded to all but one the answer "No, I don't know that."

I feel somewhat used. They got a few good websites out of me, then when it came time to have harder things be done, they let me go. "It was probably a mistake on my part hiring you, Chris", Daniel said. They thankfully kept me on the payroll until the end of the year, so I need to find something to hold me over. I really don't want to go back to Virginia.

I really want to get into acting, and being in California, what better place to start. Problem is, I have NO clue where to start. I don't know anyone in the industry. So if you happen to read this, and know someone that could help, e-mail me!

Welcome

Welcome everyone to my first post! I'm using Blogger as a tester, I'm currently looking at a few other packages, such as Wordpress, and will be using Blogger for a while to see if I like it. Wordpress look nice because I can host it on a server, then buy a domain name at the same time, plus a good amount of server space, so we'll see.
