Hello world! Welcome back to another blog and another weekly highlights. With Mother’s Day coming up I knew it would be an emotional week. But luckily I had my usually bits to keep me occupied. So without further ado here’s what I got up to this week.
Monday: To start off the day I watched abit of the premier league darts. Once again this has helped me keep my energy levels up in order for an early shift at work. And when I got there it did seem to pay off, as despite feeling tired along with some music it seemed to have done the trick.
As I got back after a long nap I had some lunch whilst I watched the start of Gogglebox. One of the shows they reacted to was One Day, and this is definitely on my watchlist, as not only is an actor I’ve seen on a podcast in it, but I’ve heard really good things about it. But I’ve been told to get the tissues ready as the last episode is supposed to be a tear jerker. All I can say on that is noted. I also practiced more of my darts where as you can see I hit a bullseye and a 25 later on in the evening. So overall I'm quite proud of myself there
The afternoon then consisted of helping an actor with their tape and vice versa. I feel like it went really well, as I knew my objective and I was able to pull off an accent. Even though my agent did suggest to send one scene in an American accent and one in my native accent, I may send both scenes with both accents so then the casting director can have something to play with. Let’s hope it pays off. But all in all it was lots of fun and I got to meet 2 new faces off of the back of it. I then also besieged my agent on some more jobs I’ve seen on spotlight, keeping the hustle going on the next tape I get, and I also did some yoga. And it was a good job I did as it helped me take away all the unwanted stress and tension as always.
To settle into the evening I did my 7th Industry Ready seminar and the 3rd one on emails. There was. A lot to take in, and I’ll admit I was flitting in between the session and looking at people to read in a tape for me for the next day. But it’s a good job we have the recording. I did have a question I was going to save on my one to one but once I recap the recording I’ll remember it I’m sure.
After a nice hot shower I watched Coronation Street from 29th February and 1st March. And it was lovely to see Ryan again after his brief exit before Christmas. But it wasn’t so long ago since daisy was trying to win back Daniel. Is it a rebound? I don’t know. But one thing I do know is that this is coronation street, so anything can happen. These episodes are a fine example of not all people being born evil. As Adam is slowly starting to turn into the dark side in his plan to get rid of Damon. I know that when he offers appeared he came in as a bad boy, but this is beyond bad boy level. And judging by the next few spoilers I’m sensing that it’s going to go downhill from there.
This was then followed by Doctors from today. I’m glad Luca was able to help a priest with his identity and able to tell his dying mentor about it. Even though it’s a huge thing, the fact that he got it off of his chest says it all. I also wonder if rob and rhuma will become something more. I know I’ve said it before and that men and women can be friends, but I’m just getting a 6th sense that something will happen. And I hope it does. And that by the show finishes (where filming has now been done) they can live happily ever after. And finally on that matter I hope Al will see that if at first you don’t succeed try and try again. But it’ll take more than a visit from jimmi to say otherwise. This was then followed by checking my socials on my personal account (as I was so tired at that point) and learning some Korean whilst scheduling the next day. Overall a really great day.
Tuesday: To start off the day I watched the rest of Gogglebox, where they reacted to mainly the news. There was one story of one member of the forked leaving but I won’t even say who as at this point nothing linking to the government surprises me anymore. This was then followed by a session at the gym where I did legs, and despite being a little over my schedule again I had a really good session.
After walking my dog I filmed my second self-tape to send with my other one I filmed the day before. This one was a lot of fun, but it felt more natural with my native accent. But if I do make it through to the next round and they require the next few scenes in American then I’m glad there will be coaches to help with extra tips and tricks. Uploading them onto tagmin was the trickiest part, but after about what felt like forever and also applying for some jobs on Mandy in the process, I got it uploaded. So overall my main goal was achieved.
At lunch I watched the last episode of Fool Me Once. All I can say is Wow. Wow. wow!!!! The ending itself was just hanging onto the edge of your seat, and other than making my lunch half way through, I couldn’t take my eyes off of the screen. I did not expect Mayas fate, but the fact that she took a risk to expose her deceased loved ones family just goes to show the length she will go to to protect her family. The ending was beautiful to see, and that Sami had a brilliant part in that ending. So overall a really good series.
In the afternoon I recapped the seminar of CVs session 3. During the life session I did she some questions to ask during my 1-2-1, but I’ve being the person I am I forgot to write them down. So this was a perfect way to recap and gradually add them on things I need to ask. This was then followed by doing some more movement. I think until the lady who is on maternity leave comes back to the adult dance classes in Newark, YouTube tutorials are the best option for me for now. as I’m writing this I’m slowly getting the Zumba routine bar 2 moves which I need to look at. And I’ve also started a new jazz routine, which will require some practice, but once I get the hang of it, it’ll be like riding a bicycle. I was going to recapp a routine section from Joseph which I did back in 2022, but due to a technical fault within facebook (as that’s where the backing track for it is held) I couldn’t do it. But I simply recapped the moves in my own time, and it’s now getting to a point where I need to make a list of what routines I’m doing to film when I hire out a studio, which will be around May/June. I know they say “there’s never a right time” and at one point I do agree with it. But I know that if I take on a huge task like this, I’ll get burnt out. So gradually making those steps into learning/refreshing the dances so that when I finally film my movement I will be going in strong.
To help rest between seminars and work I did I did a survey and learnt some Korean. This was then followed by some more darts to let out any tension I’ve been feeling. and I think it paid off, because as you can see I managed to hit some rebels and doubles. To settle into the evening I had a session I signed up for with my spotlight membership talking about impostor syndrome. It was something different but very informative. And in some ways it’s helped me with some I still face today. Alright I was flitting between that and seeing what time my 1-2-1 with industry ready was as I hadn’t heard anything back. But I made plenty of notes for me to look back on for future preferences.
I then moved onto some more darts. I was quite proud of myself for hitting the big numbers, especially on the treble and another 25. I'm slowly but surely getting better at it.
Whilst I had dinner I watched todays addition of Doctors. Now I won’t lie I was not expecting the sons revelation but I could see why he kept it from his mum whilst she was going through a rough time. But I could also see why the mum was upset for him not telling her, but now that everything is out of the open they can be more honest with each other. I also hope Kirsty will be able to pull off the show, and that everyone will take her seriously, but I wonder how wheels cope with a message from her ex.
This then moved onto catching up on an actors expo seminar with casting director Rachel Sheridan. It was brilliant to watch her again after seeing her on an act on this session, but in a different setting and how she left the session to the audience for any questions. And sometimes you need to hear the same amount of information a few times to take action, and this was a fine example. I then checked my socials whilst I planned tomorrow. This was also an example of compromising, as an actor who I asked to help me read a tape in honour of World Book Day and International Women’s Day can only do a certain time. But in some ways yes it mean skipping the gym and do a home workout, but it meant that I didn’t need to leave and rush about when I got back. So in some ways you could say that every cloud has a silver lining.
Wednesday: To start the day I wasted abit of the premier league darts from Thursday just to keep my energy levels up. This was then followed by a home workout after scheduling my day to get some help on a self tape I was doing after that. It was safe to say that I hadn’t done the exercises in a while and I needed to look at how I do them again. However I got it done and not let not going to the gym an excuse for moving my body.
This then moved onto me filming my tape in honour of World Book Day and International Women’s Day. This was a scene from the second live action Alice In Wonderland film, and one of my favourites in the whole film. The reason being is that it had a strong character and like myself, Alice knows what she wants in life, and wants to break the norm and also break out of what her family want. And I’m continuing to work on that myself. It was also good to chat to a fellow actor about life and the stuff we go through outside of it. And like with the past few days it’s not very often I get to do it, so not only was it a good session but a good catch up with a fellow actor.
After updating my budgeting table I started an Act On This podcast with actress and creative Melissa Johns. It was so refreshing to get back on the podcasts and with an inspirational women to hear about how she turned her adversity into a positive, it couldn’t have come at a more perfect timing. So far I’m loving what she had it say, as even though she felt as though she had to go to London and be at drama school (where she did take some lessons from it) she knew that it was there for a reason, and that it all led up to creating the company helping deaf/disabled and neurodivergent actors be seen in the industry, particularly after the insecurity of her disability before she could embrace the real her. I can’t wait to listen to the rest of it and how she turned a negative moment in her life into a positive one.
I then moved onto an actors expo clip, where I watched the rest later on. This was non other than with Act On This founder Ross Grant himself along with Emmy winner Daniel Edwards. I was supposed to do something else but with only 3 months to view the recordings and with my target being 2 seminars from there a week, I wanted to stick to my goal. What a seminar this was, and I think that Daniel gets more brutal if in a live audience. But do you know what? I love that from him, as he’s the sort of person where he’s straight to the point he tells them exactly what it is, and that one littlest thing (like emailing him at weekends is when he’s out of office) could cause a risk to not being seen by him. So one thing I learnt is to know my s**t. Even though I’ve heard it before, it’s good to hear it again as a refresher. Well done gentleman, you certainly did a good job on the day and from the sound of the audience, it was a real crowd pleaser.
At lunch I was then the final episode of Waterloo Road (where I watched the rest later on). I have a lot to say on it. I was gutted when a Izzy made the decision that had a real impact on her family. But she was doing what was best for her. And sometimes time away from home does help clear the mind so that when you come back you can cope with things better. I also praise Kelly Jo for knowing her own worth, and that coral and Neil will get back on track after Libby reveals everything to her dad, and about time as well. I also hope that what happened to Schuey will help with his behaviour, and now that we know he wasn’t being evil, we can see why he acts the way he does at school. And what his dad did was shocking. And hopefully by the next series if he does come back he can have a new outlook on Waterloo road. Especially with a new head teacher coming in.
The afternoon went quicker than expected, as I got started on some stuff I need to be doing but also nearly competed tasks which took quicker than expected. These included noting some new day jobs and drafting some emails to casting directors and creatives. I even managed to make a document where it was a draft of my introduction emails to casting directors of stage and screen and also my cover letters for Mandy as part of my industry ready sessions. that was the extra mile, as the sooner I could get started the sooner I can get feedback. This was then followed by some Korean and French, where after a free 3 days on super Duolingo, I managed to come plate all my mistakes and made my way to the top of the leaderboard. I also managed to fit some darts in where once again I hit a few trebles and doubles (Even a treble 20). And that was enough for me.
After walking my dog I had my final 1-2-1 with Christopher. I’m really getting to find my feet meeting this new creative, and the confidence is gained with him is just amazing. I didn’t managed to get so of my questions answered but I got some real insight as to what outfits I should wear for stuff like my dance reels. All I need to do now is recap notes, see what I’ve got in my wardrobe and start dance clothes shopping. This then moved into the industry ready seminar where we talked about mindset. This was a real eye opener as Chris asked us to think about this: “have I done everything I can to make it work?” So even if I do one thing like apply for a job on Mandy or nudge my agent on a job I’ve seen on spotlight, that’s one more thing that 99% of actors would not do. And that’s a win for me.
I then had my acting class where I continued to learn the Meisner technique. This was taught by a past alumni of the workshop, and her take on messier was so different to what my teacher tight but do you know what? I embraced every minute if it. We even did a warmup and an activity to music and it was quite interesting. It also made me wonder why we can’t have classes like that as not only was it good for my body but it helped me get into the rhythm of the exercises given. But all in all with the activities we did (where me and my classmate could not stop laughing) it was a good session.
As it got to later in the evening, the day took a hit of a turn when I was hit with shocking news. I won’t go into detail out of respect for what’s happened, but as I’m writing this I’m in a state of shock and paranoia and a little bit of anxiety. But it’s also made me grateful for what I’ve currently got which is a life. Maybe I haven’t got regular work in acting (yet), but I’m still breathing, I’ve got a roof over my head and I can see. And what’s happens has given me more opportunities to be grateful for the life I’m living now.
Thursday: To start off the day I watched Mondays addition of Hollyoaks as always. I do get why Abs feels the way he felt knowing he wanted to be loved, but how he behaved with Cleo and Theresa was not an excuse and after Mercedes heard a phone call that sounded abit dodgy, I think the true agenda of Abe is slowly coming to light. I also love the relationship between kitty and rose and how that she didn’t need to tell kitty that she’s not being true to herself and needs to figure out who she really is. It may come as a shock to Tony and Diane when the truth does come out, but I know that they’ll be there for her every step of the way. I also wonder how Misbah and zains relationship may stand after Misbah tells Sharon something that is not life threatening but I didn’t think I would hear her say.
I then made my way to the gym. I won’t lie I did have abit of a wobble, as with Mother’s Day coming up and given what’s happened with the shock news I received it surprisingly hit me in the gut. But I think the session itself did the trick, as I persevered and I came out the other side feeling strong. And as someone who likes to exercise, I knew that if I stopped I’d regret it. I also made a start on some tv reviews for my next post. Yes I didn’t go into full depth but i made a start and some notes on what to expand on. And that was enough for me.
When I got back it was a busy afternoon to say the least. This included cooking the tea which took longer due to the pasta. I decided to use wholewheat pasta knowing I would be filling myself up with junk food over the weekend. I knew that wholewheat pasta would take longer to cook anyway but if I had boiled the kettle it would have been quicker. But we managed to get it done and I would say it was a huge success. I then changed my bed and showed my Nan my new gym shorts. I made the decision to wear them in and see what happens, as even though they’re a size smaller everyone is different and they can stretch too, which was something I need to consider.
Soon afterwards I recapped on last nights Industry Ready recording and applied for a day job. This took a whole due to stopping and starting a lot but I got through it and made every note under the sun. I also saw a day job opening for a popular branch which is yes a 30 minute walk but if I was to go by taxi, it would be less than my current job therefore a cheaper taxi fair. So that was something to consider.
I then had some lunch whilst I watched Tuesdays addition of Hollyoaks. I couldn’t believe that Misbah said what she felt about Zain, and I have a feeling it may be because of what’s happened with Ali and maybe it’s put up the wall of vulnerability inside of her. Or maybe she genuinely doesn’t have the feelings she once had for Zain, and that’s also okay, and she was right on needing to talk about it and I hope that whether they stay together or not they can make the decision on good terms. I also wonder Abes situation with this Demi girl. As maybe what he said about his mum was genuine, but I wonder if it links to the demi girl. Either way this is not going to end well. I also wish that Leela will give Joel their second chance he deserves as even though she has right i boundaries this has gone on for too long. I also dread to think how tiny will feel after Diane’s statement and by the looks of the spoiler clips not well.
As always I made my way to work. Before then and on my break I noted down some jobs to nudge my agent on spotlight (which I did later on) and some in Mandy. I noticed that I also missed some of them to nudge my agent on and even though she may have subbed for those, it was a kick in the teeth. However, I then turned my thoughts into positive ones, and that those were good jobs, but maybe they weren’t the right ones for me at this moment. As I needed to get rid of the good to make room for the great.
Work itself was okay. I did have abit of wobble due to everything that’s happened and a printer to reduce items breaking. However after a baguette and a protein bar it seemed to have done the trick. And I also had a customer made a lovely comment on my hair, so I think that made my day. I also found out that one of my colleagues used to play county darts, and I just found it fascinating. Fingers crossed they can sign up for my charity darts tournament knowing he has that slight advantage of experience
As I got back I watched the premier league darts whilst I had my tea as seen below. Even though Gerwyn price is not my favourite player, I do feel the tiniest bit of pain for him losing the match on his birthday. But cool hand Luke Humphries has definitely got his stride going. And if any of the players are not careful he may sneak his way up to the top of the leaderboard.
I then ended the day with scheduling tomorrow whilst prepping to post my International Women’s Day tape the first thing the next day. This was then of course followed by learning some languages where thanks to having a free 3 days of super Duolingo I managed to complete my daily goals.
Friday: To kick off the day I watched abit of last nights premier league darts to come again keep me energised for the day. I also posted my monologue in honour of World Book Day and International Women’s Day. This was a scene from Alice: Through The Looking Glass and it’s a piece I’ve wanted to record for ages. I guess what I like abit this piece is that at this point Alice knows what she wants. Yes she is seen as an “outsider” linking to the era it’s in, but her passion to follow in her fathers footsteps in this scene really does shine through. Please see the link here to view the full video:
I then made my way to work. This shift was okay although I had abit of another wobble. Fortunately it didn’t take me long to compose myself and I was back to it, which was something I was proud of. I even managed to hit a double 20 twice when playing abit of darts. Sadly I didn’t get any photos of it but you know what? I don’t care as I know I made myself proud hitting one of the big doubles in my favourite sport. I also had an idea for either a tv pilot or film script. I’m not sure how much of it I’ll remember by the time I do write it, but one thing about being creative is that it will come, and that when I just write, even if it is not what I initially thought, it was develop and grow.
As I got back I did have a plan, but due to my dog being under the weather, I had to change plans. So I started checking my personal social media accounts and doing some yoga. I needed the session as well as my shoulder has been playing up since Wednesday. But with going out the next day and having Mother’s Day off, I think a well deserved lie in is what I need.
I also started my industry ready seminar, where they talked about side hustles, the power of saying no and the industry as a game. I loved this one in particular, because as mentioned before I’m looking for a new job with more flexible hours, and after asking a question on a job Chris personally wouldn’t recommend but if it linked to the arts in some ways, it got me thinking deeply. The session also made me have some thoughts on taking opportunities and not get overwhelmed. In this case there are two opportunities for a play and I’m eager to do both. But after the session, I think I would just do the one as I don’t want to get overwhelmed as even though some people can handle two shows in 2 weeks others may not. And knowing I won’t have time to practice for the first audition I don’t want to go in knowing I haven’t done the work due to other factors in my life. But during the session my shoulder was starting to flare up again so I had to turn off the video during the session. But as always I would catch up on the recording over the weekend. It may be Mother’s Day, but it would give me something to do.
After walking my dog I watched Coronation Street from Monday and Wednesday this week whilst I had my second lot of tea I made yesterday as seen above.. You do have to feel for Liam about not coming clean on the knife sooner, but I also see why Liam didn’t tell them, as when you’re in a situation like this, you feel like you have no choice and it’s to let them win. But I am hoping he gets the justice he deserves, as this has gone on for too long, but then again this is the reality for most scenarios of bullying. I’m also glad that Fiz is back but Cassie and Evelyn bickering over who’s staying at Tyrone’s isn’t helping at all, but I’m sure they’ll come to a solution. And Adams chances of getting Sarah back are completely shattered after he told her everything following an accident. But I think that Damon isn’t going to play nice on this occasion. But I wasn’t really focusing on the last part due to messaging the editor on my film, and after a miscommunication on a certain shot, the rough cut should be done very soon.
I then ended the day with watching Wednesdays addition of Hollyoaks. All I can say is I’m so proud of rose for doing what makes her happy, even if it means shocking tony and Diane, who have just got themselves into a heap of trouble following the last episode. Their bickering is the last thing Rose needs. I also just wish that Leela and Joel would just get back together already. Even though Abe was the one that started it and that Leela didn’t see everything, I just wanted her to see that he does genuinely care about her, and for the baby’s sake I just want her to let him be a part of its life at least
This was then followed by doing some Korean as French whilst checking my socials. I was surprised I managed to get to bed as early as I did and I’m hoping when I wake up I will have a brilliant day.
Saturday: To start this very long day I was yeah abit of the premier league darts from Thursday. This once again helped me keep my energy levels up and prepped me for a long day. I then made my way to work. This was only a short shift, and due to the picking finishing before I got here it was facing up we had to do, which I’ll be honest I do hate the most. However in moments like these whilst I’m looking for a new job/side hustle to help me stay fulfilled when I’m not acting, I’m learning to be grateful in these moments where in this scenario for some it’s not ideal but for others it’s a blessing. And after what happened to someone who was about my age a few days ago (which I won’t go into detail about) it’s moments like this where you’re grateful to be alive in this moment.
I then made my way to Nottingham. And I was right to get an earlier train when I did, as the one I was going to catch would be packed. Mind you it is a Saturday and the lunch hour so at this point I’m not even surprised. But whilst I was there I kept myself occupied. This included having a nice cup of tea in the cute coffee shop whilst I did abit of shopping. This was mainly protein bars from Holland and Barrett’s due to the branch there being bigger. But it was nice to have a wonder in the city I love, and it was also needed before an afternoon of entertainment.
It was then time for the main event. The show. And from start to finish I was just hooked on it. The actors were brilliant, the scenery was fantastic and it was just what I needed. Although there was someone in the audience who said “she’s dead” when one of the actors mentioned the queen. And I’m just like “darling this is a play set in the 1900s, just shut up and go along with it”. I’ll be doing a review of the show in the next few weeks, so make sure you keep your eyes peeled.
After I got home I wasted the first half of episode 4 of After The Flood whilst I had a five Guy as seen below. I was struggling to get into this one as after being up since 5am my brain has gone abit mushy. But I’ve watched enough to know that Tasha will not let anyone get in her way of dining answers about her brother, and that Molly will do whatever it takes to out jack for the person he is. I also couldn’t believe what Jo told her colleague after a shocking discovery in the last episode, and I can’t wait to watch the rest of it tomorrow.
I then moved onto Thursdays addition of Hollyoaks. I’m glad that Cindy has finally managed to get herself the job for her wedding, and let’s hope she doesn’t mess up on this one. And even though I’ve seen the spoilers on this one, I’m glad that kitty is staying as she is the one person to help Rose, and I hope that it can help tony and Diane’s relationship too. And it was a close call for Joel and Leela, and even though I just want her to see that Joel isn’t like the other men she has dated in the past. But at the same time you can’t force what’s not here. But at least she’ll let him be in the baby’s life which is a good thing. I also fear for Romeo’s safety when Kane comes interfering him. But after looking at the spoilers I something tells me that this is not going to end well.
Before bed I watched the first half of Gogglebox whilst having a tasty waffle as seen below. This was still a weird and also heartwarming session. From Ben fogle discovering a technique in the sport of wrestling in Congo, to looking at your bottom to say what you’re feeling it has it all. But there were also heartwarming moments like a good scouter of a house with Stacey Solomon and penguins using individual sounds to find each other. I just can’t wait to see it the rest of it and what it has to offer next.
I then ended the day with checking my acting socials and doing one session of Korean. This was a quick session as even though I don’t need to be up early the next day I’m just so tired from being up at 5am. But at least the next day I don’t need to stress about getting up. And you know what? I’m looking forward to it.
Sunday: Today was an emotional day for me. But thankfully I had the day off of work to help me relax and not put any pressure on me. Even though I didn’t get a lie in, I managed to not feel any pressure to get up and did so when I was ready. And boy did I feel good about it. And I also had stuff to do to keep me prioritised on an emotional day like this. To kick off the morning I skimmed through abit of dancing on ice and watched Wednesday’s episode of Doctors. When Nina invited temporary doctor Michelle for supper I dread to think what she’s got planned. After Scarlett and the drama that happened with Suni, I hate to think what she does next. I also wonder if the husband of a woman with a weird obsession with gateau was right to not mention it at the end, given that it’s sentimental value. But I think that after a false alarm, it may have given her the wake up call she needed to seek help before the baby arrives.
I then watched the rest of Gogglebox, where it included a very full on bride on “Married At First sight Australia” and One Day where Emma saw a different side to him that gave her the ick (and after that clip I don’t blame her). This then moved onto relooking at the industry ready recording where I looked upon the power of no. This was particularly helpful for me as even though I may have mentioned it before, but it’s helped me with auditions that are going forward in the next few months. This included an audition for two different plays and I’ve made the decision to go for just the one. Yes it would mean saying yes to an opportunity it a show that I’ve not done before, but because the other show I’m auditioning for is the week before I don’t want to get overwhelmed. And even though some people can handle 2 different show weeks side by side, others may find it exhausting. And after my relapses of what I thought was my heart condition in 2021 and 2022 (when really it was a panic attack) I don’t want to take that chance.
This was then followed by the rest of the Act On This podcast with Melissa Johns (were caught up on the last 10 minutes later on). And in an emotional day like today this was what I needed. And what an inspirational lady she is, especially after that traumatic incident in 2018. But it just goes it show that you can turn a negative into a positive, and once the tv series is up and running I’ll be on the look out for casting in no time!
During lunch after walking my dog and nipping to the shop I watched the rest of episode 4 of After The Flood. I think after abit of a slow burner yesterday, when Molly got into the council room it was the best bit and seeing how passionate she is to make a change. But after an accident at the end, I don’t think it’ll be looking good for her run as being part of the council.
In the afternoon I caught up on an actors expo seminar which featured Michael Cox from Hammond and Cox casting (where I listened to the rest later on). This was a very in depth insight into how their casting process works, and I’ve definitely learnt a few things or two. This includes email them in the evening (but maybe not at midnight), when doing a recall I stand further away but the camera is close up to me, and that for self tapes, adding the scenery of the commercial without being too theatrical is just as beneficial but not essential. Those are noted which I will definitely take forward. This was then followed by brain dumping everything for next week and doing some yoga
After walking my dog it was a soap marathon for me. This was starting with m Thursdays episode of Doctors. I do hope the lady will make a swift recovery after her way of saving money goes too far, and that after initially dining one of Zara’s old friends attractive I quickly changed my opinion of him after he asked Zara a question that was quite different to what she was expecting. And also a prime example of how you shouldn’t judge someone before you get to know them.
Soon afterwards I watched Fridays addition of Hollyoaks. Maybe prince may not be able to forgive Romeo, but maybe Dilly is a good distraction from him. Even though rages funeral is only days away, given what she has been through Prince may be the person she needs to distract herself. And by the looks of things were starting to see a softer side to her around prince. I guess you could say we need to watch this space. I also hope that Tony will be supportive for Rose, and whilst I get it’s still a lot for him to take in, he needs to be there for her, especially with Kitty also being a shoulder to cry on too. And with Owen Warner’s exit drawing nearer and nearer, it doesn’t look good for Romeo at the end of the episode. Even though it didn’t specifically say how he would exit, I’m sure he’s about to go out with a bang.
The evening ended with watching Fridays addition of Coronation Street. Now that Dylan knows the true extent on how the bullying has affected Liam, I’m glad has taken some responsibility. Yes it could mean a criminal record, he knew he was in the wrong and he knew it was time to face the consequences. But I know all of that could change at some point, and with Eileen being cautious after the revelation, I think things are going to go downhill from there. I also admired Rubys monologue about Fiz, which was just what she needed after a rough start back from her return. And I think that Evelyn had some input in it, but with her being the person she is, she won’t admit to anything, but in a funny way. And I also get hey Bobby was suspicious of Roy after coming to Lauren’s flat to find him there. Even though he was tidying up, I also know that Bobby was trying to protect Lauren. And after seeing next weeks spoilers it doesn’t look good for Roy.
To end the evening I checked my socials from my acting page (as I checked my personal lens earlier on) and learnt a session of Korean. It was only one session due to being up very early in the morning. I also had to update my budgeting table after yesterday expensive trip to Nottingham and I was surprised that for food I’ve managed to have some money left still. But depending on how much I’ve hoot left I’m going to treat myself to a book I said I was going to buy. And buy one I shall. I also had to schedule my day for tomorrow and I have a feeling it’ll be a chilled day tomorrow.
What have I learnt this week? As Melissa Johns would say, hang on one more day. If you need to let out an emotion do you’re having a bad day, that’s fine. And know that good things will come from bad situation.
See you soon for another blog. Until next time…
This is the autistic actress signing off :)
