Oscars

Well, after filming today, Chad and I are headed to Palatial Heights for the Oscars. Wow! I still can't believe it, but we were nominated for Best Actress and Best Actor. Wow! I never thought, wow! I would have thought that Ruth or even Jasmine would have been nominated based on thier experience and storylines, but wow. Cool! Alexis was nominated as well and some other cast members. So the Oscars should be fun. I wonder if anyone is throwing an after-party.

I found my dress and Chad has a suit to co-ordinate for the Oscars, I hope I look red carpet ready. Wow! A year ago I was cleaning toilets, now I'm an Oscar nominated actress. EEEEE!!!!

Wedding plans going ok, think we'll postpone some things until the end of March. We're thinking of switching the date to the fall, but summer should be less busy, well, maybe not, since we're both going to audition for more projects, especially since we've been nominated for Oscars, gotta strike while the iron is hot!

until next time!

Wedding Plans

We've decided to marry in June...I'm not sure how I feel about being a June bride...it's so...cliche. But Chad really wants to marry then *shrug*

We saw a beautiful resort lodge as a possible site, but we haven't made any desicions yet. Well, besides the month and our honor attendants. Chad's best man is his brother, Jim. My matron of honor is Daisy, Chad's sister.

This is strange...I'm actually getting married :\

Engaged!



Good, no, Great news! Chad and I are engaged!!!!

Chad proposed on The Gloria Show and wow! I'm still on cloud nine...airy...in love... ^_^

That's why he was behaving strangly the past few simdays. He was he was planning this big surprise proposal and apparently I kept walking in on him discussing the details with the producers and the jewelry store. I'm still in shock-that's why they wanted to film us live!

It was the best Valentine's Day! After the show Chad had arranged for a limo to take us to a very nice resturaunt, where he reserved a room. We ate so much food and champagne! But it was nice to simply dwell in the glow of the engagement before returning to the house and the very full answering machine.

Wow...still giddy ^_^

The Gloria Show

Tomorrow Chad and I appear on The Gloria Show. I hope I sound ok, my throat has been itchy...I think I may be getting a cold. I'm not as nervous anymore. Chad and I looked over the questions together and even pretended to interview each other. It's one thing playing a character versus being yourself on television.

Things are going well here, AV distributed a patch to help repair some problems with the new deal. Soon it will be spring time here and the new seasons deal will have arrived. Chad promised to take me fishing once it arrived. I can't wait to try out some new recipes and smoothies.

Filming is going well, Chad has been really busy since most of the filming for the past few days have been at his set. I was able to sneak a peek at one scene-it was some sort of formal at Lani's Diner. He's been so busy that we haven't been able to talk on the set. I couldn't talk to Jasmine either since she's been busy filming some scenes with Ruth. Josie and Alexis are not filming as heavily right now, but Alexis is in wardrobe most of the time and then she's on the phone talking to her kids. She told me that she might start bringing them to the set. I guess that's allowed, Josie brought Blossom once when the girl had some sort of holiday from school. We all have studio suites, so I guess as long as the kids are not in the way during filming. I wonder if I would bring my children to the set. Hmmm, I would like to, I would probably alter my studio suite to include space for them and make sure that they have lots of toys.

Since everyone has been so busy, I've been spending time in my suite rehearsing lines for filming. It's quiet and hard not to fall asleep in the room by myself.

until next time

Long Time No Post

Long time no write. Things have been busy with filming, we're getting the weekend off so Chad and I are driving up to the mountains to spend the weekend at the resort he just filmed some of his scenes at. I can't wait. When we return we're going to appear on The Gloria Show...LIVE!!! Yikes! I am sooo nervous about appearing live. Rehearsing lines is one thing, but to appear as yourself live. I'm not so sure.

Chad still has been acting strange, I don't know what it is...I wonder if he's going to break up with me. I try not to be clingy or even mention my desire for marriage and babies, but maybe I emit the fumes of committment ^_^

STAR came out-it was funny since they assumed that Chad and I were expecting since we went to a baby store. LOL! We were picking out a gift for his sister and her new baby. Wow, I didn't even see a reporter so I'm wondering how they found out that information.

I need to pack for the trip and go to the store. Tomorrow the cast and crew are having a potluck lunch, I am bringing my famous chestnut pork salad. It's yummy. Sometimes I think I was better suited to play Lani since she's a chef, but I like playing Sierra...she's interesting at times, other times she seems like filler for the background. Sierra doesn't have a lot of external issues like children and relationships, but her internal issues might crop up later (even now I see them in some of the storylines and scripts). Her ancestors and lineage are very important to her, she wants to serve them.

I wonder what my lineage is...what my background is. Could I be native american like Sierra? multi-racial? south asian? asian? white? black? I find it hard to tell at times. I look in the mirror and try to find markings of races in me, but to no avail. Everytime I think-I must be X because of my Y, I see a person A with my Y. LOL! Chad brought me a documentary "Power of an Illusion" which was very interesting. It was about race relations and how you can not look at a person's DNA and tell thier race. Thus all those racial physical/personality/mental traits are a bunch of bull-non existent.

Very interesting-genetics and DNA in SimNation. Chad's sister is has fair skin and blond hair-like Chad. Her husband has dark skin and blond hair as well, thier children favor her husband. Rayne has a similar marriage and her children favor her husband. I wonder what my children would look like? Would they have my brown eyes? Or maybe red hair from generations back?

*sigh* I must go, more filming

until next time
