Sometimes I wish…

…I had an older, established actor to mentor me. And tell me if I should jump in or let some opportunities pass on by.

…I knew what I was going to be like down the road. What my convictions were going to be…what my views and thoughts would be.

…I could focus more.

…someone else could be the adult.

…my bangs didn’t have a cowlick right where they part.

…I wouldn’t get so many headaches.

…more people liked to video chat.

…chocolate was free and available on every street corner.

…I understood people more.

…that I would be understood more.

…men and women could get along, without being weird.

…my skin would clear up.

…I wouldn’t break out in hives during auditions.

Sometimes I wish…

…words would come to me more freely. And I could write a press release without reaching down to play with my dog instead.

Amen, sister! I’m so with you on most of these. well, not so much the bangs one. But only because my hair dresser refuses to give me bangs.
Any success on the press release? Or are you still playing with your dog?

I like to video chat! You can Skype me any time – my puppy Elle also loves being on camera. What a drama queen! Someday I’m going to make it out to the big city and see you in all your beautiful glory!

I do think, however, that sometimes it’s better not to be understood. I think that is part of the amazing JOY of be an individual. You are such a special girl and I think that if everyone understood, you wouldn’t be such an independent spirit. Maybe that’s just my crazy individual talking, but that is the magic of Tara. Miss you!

Just the other day I was having that moment where I realized I was an adult, and it was time for an adult conversation, and it really stopped me in my tracks! You’d think by the time you’re 25 you’d have realized that you’re an adult, but apparently I still need those subtle little reminders to totally freak me out.
