Just Another Reason That I Love My Job!!

(Technically, I have several jobs at the moment to make ends meet, but this post refers to my job as an actor!  Just wanted to clarify that haha!)  OK, on to my post!  I had a great day.  And I hope that you did, too.  I've been here in Orange County helping Mama Daley finish her move here from Boston!!  FINALLY WE ARE DONE.  Such a relief!  After my friends and I helped move more boxes out of her portable storage unit and up to her place, we all went for a dip in the hot tub, which is where I was again reminded of how awesome it is to pursue acting and the entertainment industry as a career.  Here's the reason why:  My friends and I met one of the coolest dudes' ever while we were chillin' in that tub!!  His name is Pat, and he's a middle aged man, an actor who has been working in the entertainment biz for a long time.  He had some incredible stories that he shared with me and my friends.  One of the most inspiring stories that he told involved himself and his wife while they were living in Hawaii on a boat!  Pat explained that one day while he was on his boat, he was approached at the dock by a Hollywood producer who asked if his boat could potentially be used in a television series.  Pat jumped at this opportunity, as he had been working in Hollywood before, and it turns out that the producer worked for the hit show, "LOST"!!  Pat was able to work with the TV series for the entire duration, 5 years!  He was also able to work as an actor in some of the episodes and meet some of his idols.

 I found his story to be fascinating in the way that he did not expect or plan for any of the amazing things in his career that have happened to him!  He worked hard for a long time, taking things day by day, and his hard work has certainly paid off in a surprising way while he was living over in Hawaii!  His story reminded me about how lucky I am to be pursuing the entertainment industry as my job.  You truly meet some incredible people and experience amazing things.  Thanks, Pat, for inspiring me to keep my head up and keep working hard in this crazy industry.  Somehow, some way, it will all work out in the end. 

I'm thinking maybe I should get a boat and move to Hawaii for a while... producers, take note!   ;)
