getting fitted

so a couple of weeks ago I got measured for my costume in Peter Pan. Did i mention i am in Peter Pan! it is an absolute mystery as to how i got into the cast but i am absolutely blessed with the opportunity. it was so exciting getting measured for the first time. usually costumes were bought or made up of my own clothes but to be measured gives me the comforting and exciting epiphany that i could do this for a living. i could perform for a living. i love the way Sierra Boggess explains it . she says we as actors are meant to heal. we are called to heal. isn't that beautiful?  I seem to have missed the fact that i haven't told you what part i got. well it wasn't Wendy because my weight cannot be supported to fly, i messed up on vocals and im only a freshman in college and it is rare for freshman to get roles( sad day but it just means i need to work on my body, which is goal of mine either way.) i am playing the role of Nana. yes, the dog but it is still quite exciting. who cares, I am in Peter Pan.and who knows, maybe one day ill play Wendy and Peter. i basically just did all the stuff my dog did at the call back, i knew i'd get the part. I am so happy that i did but i know that all the glory goes to God. without him i wouldn't have gotten a call back to show what i could do. it is very strange,i am terrible at auditions if i really want to be in the shows, but if it is something that doesn't really spark my interest i do amazing.  i was so nervous in my audition because peter pan is my one of my favorite stories. and as a child i always dreamed of him coming to take me to Never land. at the audition i even saw the director shake her head no at my resume and yet with God's grace i got a call back. i got to show them my talents. and now i am Nana. when i got measured the seamstress told me that she heard i was a delightful Nana. and my costume is adorable!!!! that makes me so happy and so blessed to hear good things. God really has his hands on me. I cant wait to start Reheasals. we have are first read through in two days! I  simply cannot wait

faith,trust,and pixie dust,
