Landing on the moon

Tomorrow is D-day. My very first step in the world of film making. It's just one step. But I'm terrified to screw it up. I keep telling myself to pull it together and that I'll do just fine. Technically, it's not even the first day. I've been to the breakdown. So. But it's the first time I'm on some sort of duty. I wonder if Neil Armstrong felt this way when he first stepped into that spaceship so many years ago. I doubt it.

I think he was more down to earth. After all he said: "That's one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind," when he had set foot on the moon. Not when he began his training at NASA.

But then again, he set a step for all mankind. Not only for himself.

Wish me luck. Love, Vero

NEW DREAM

Excuses

My mom keeps on finding the most stupid excuses to keep me here. More and more I feel like I'm imprisoned in my old life. I finally might have an opportunity to reach the life I've always wanted to live. Her demands are so unreasonable. The problem is my dad will probably second her. A few days ago she promised me to talk it over with my father - but now I think she's just strectchng time before the big NO! Why is she doing this to me? Why can't she just support me? Why can't she let me go and set me free?

All I want to do is cry, but I know I need to stay strong. She hasn't said no yet. I'm assuming she'll say that I can go under severe conditions that seem impossible!!

The next video is Katy Perry's firework. It always gives me so much strengh whenever I feel down and unmotivated. So thanks Katy!!!

Love, V

Big day(s)

Today or tomorrow my parents will finally give me their answer if I can go to LA and pursue my dreams! I'm sending out a wish and prayer so they'll realize how much I care about this! I was born to be in the film business! I was born a dreamer! I was born this way!

You know - sometimes you have to reach for the moon. If it doesn't work out we still might end up in the stars!

Love, Veronica

Fingers crossed

My mom promised to consider LA this weekend!!! So who knows! V in Cali next summer??? **

LOVE, Veronica

Dream careers

I found this link yesterday where they offer you internships in the filmmindustry! How awesome is that??? I'm seriously considering applying. The only things that are holding me back are the approval of my parents and the doubt if the organisation is not a scam.

Opportunities are to be found everywhere. All I have to do is take one.

So fingers crossed! ;)

Love, Veronica

Long way to go

Water for the elephants

Do you know that feeling? When you’ve just seen a great movie and leave the theater - that a part of you is still there? Like you’ve never left the world they made for you? Like your own world, your own reality has just been sprinkled on with stardust? Movies have that mythical power to leave all facts behind and often reality itself.

It’s like a lullaby. First, you still have the strength to fight against the sleep. But somehow you’re dragged into the melody and everything vanishes around you. You started to believe in this dream. As the song ends you feel undefeatable, like everything is right where it should be. The bad thing is…once its magic fades you’re back. And then you start to wonder…

Love, Veronica
