So any of you who know my secret desires, know that one of them is: I want to be an actress in a movie - not a big role, but just be in a movie. Biggest problem with that desire: I have stage fright and do not like being in front of people - as the center of attention.
Today, I happened to catch my big break! I am anticipating the agents and movie people calling me up any minute now, wanting me to be in their shows/movies!
As today was Stake Conference, there was a choir made up of young men and young women from our stake. Since I am over music in my ward young women program, I had the opportunity to sing with this choir. By chance, I sat in one of the middle seats (in the choir chairs) and this session was being broadcast to two other buildings... so there was a camera fixed on the speaker. Because of the chair I was in, I was on the screen too!! My family was in one of the other buildings, and my mom sent me a text (before the meeting started) saying how cute I looked, and to smile, and to not make faces during the meeting (thanks Mom! Did you see me say "Hi Mom"? Hahaha- I totally did!!).
It was hard being on my best behavior for that two hour meeting... knowing that EVERYBODY in the entire stake (who was in attendance, of course) could see me and was probably watching me! As I had other friends send me texts as well, saying they saw me - I realized that I just caught my big movie break! I was on the big screen already! I didn't have to be nervous at all... just look pretty and not fall asleep or pick my nose ;)
I would like to thank all my supporters, friends/family, co-workers, anyone else who has influenced my life to help me get to realize one of my biggest dreams! You are awesome! Thank you!!
If you're not laughing by now, you should be... cuz that was pretty funny ;)
