My new business venture.

Want your makeup done?

Because 1.) I need to make money and, 2.) I love to do makeup- I am offering my services to the general public!

For those that don't know, I was the official makeup artist for CSU Dept. of Theatre's "The Cripple of Inishmaan" and the makeup designer for "Big River" at the Springer Opera House as well as "The Rocky Horror Show" with Chattahoochee Shakespeare company.

• I am willing to negotiate prices depending on what it is (For example: if you want a prosthetic nosepiece and you want to look like you are 95, it may cost more than if you just want formal makeup done. I'm looking at ranges between $15-25. (less if you bring your own makeup, which is advisable!)

• Just in time for Halloween! =] Have a Halloween party or even to go to and want a super special look? Just schedule an appointment with me for a consultation if you just want to know how to achieve a certain look, or you can schedule a time for me to do it for you, granted, I am a busy girl and it will probably cost a bit more for me to actually DO it, especially on Halloween day as I also am doing my own, and I can't have like 10 people all wanting to do their makeup on Halloween night, haha. But we will just see how it goes!

• If you know anyone that is wanting a makeup artist for any formal event, just direct them here =]

For those who are not familiar with my work- here is a sample of what I do. I also am pretty good at creating a makeup design from any photo/painting/etc.

Extreme fashion/glamour makeup

Special FX/Extreme Makeup

Show Pictures

Please tell anyone you know who may be interested in having their makeup done. =]

SO life has been pretty good lately still.
I'm just not believing that we are already at MIDTERMS. As in.. an entire half of a semester has went by already! It's so hard to believe. I know they say the older you are the faster time flies..but..man. It's just so crazy!
But anyways, so school has been going good I suppose. I made A's on my first directing scene and analysis so *yay* for that! I feel like directing class consumes my life sometimes (it's certainly consuming my fall break!) To be honest, I'll be glad when it is over.
Apart from that, I'm gearing up for GTC! Which is going to be this crazy amalgamation of stress and excitement at the same time. Stressful- because I am doing this cabaret thing in which we have to learn all this music in a short period of time, but fun because I of course love to sing and perform! Also stressful though, is the GTC audition which weirdly, I am not even as nervous about. I feel just really good about my package, and I am just trusting myself to bust it out. haha. Also stressful is RIGHT after GTC is Richard's freestage. I'm not really that stressed.. but its just another thing, ya know?

OH and I forgot to mention- starting November 2nd I start rehearsals for...PETER PAN! =] Yep! I'm an Indian. I'm pretty excited, because I wanted to get my foot in the door over at the Springer. It's another thing I can put on my resume and a respectable place to do work in, and I'm sure I'll have lots of fun! The only bad thing about it is that my thanksgiving/christmas breaks will be cut short, but alas, I'll have the cast to keep me company I suppose.

Oh wow and you know what I just remembered though.... SEASON AUDITIONS are coming up! ahh! AHH! AHHHHH! I'm so exasperatingly desperate to be Polly in Crazy for You. I know, I know, it may be presumptuous of me to be so gung-ho about one particular role, instead of just saying I want to be cast- but I just want it that badly! There's something about Crazy for You that embodies all the things I love about musical theatre, the joy, the 40s, the goofiness, the beautiful costumes and extravagance, the beautiful standards of Gershwin, ahh. Few people really appreciate stuff like that. I feel like most people are all about whatever is controversial, dark, edgy, and cool. And that's all well and good but not ALL the time! Where's the love? Where's the fun and joy? A person can only take SO much!

But anyways, enough about my rant :P
Whatever happens will happen, and even if I'm not in Crazy for You, gosh darn it I'll be in something. It hasn't stopped me before. I'll find a way to be on a stage, CSU dept. of theatre, I'll find a way... hehe.

Anyways, I suppose I should get back to my lovely directing analysis of joy.

P.S. IM SO EXCITED FOR HALLOWEENNNN I'm going to be Jasmine. WOO
