Day 12 in L.A. (Change of Plans & Paradise...?)

As most of you know yesterday I received a call to be a part of a comedy troupe audition tomorrow. Early afternoon today, I decided not to audition for the comedy troupe. I’m sorry. I hope I’m not disappointing you all. I know talked so much about it being a great opportunity and many of you responded with so much support. I apologize but after I received a phone call to be a part of Chris Brown’s new music video I had to jump on that opportunity instead.

Yes its true, in a few hours I will be on the set of an all day shoot for Chris Brown’s new music video entitled “yeah 3X.” I think my high top fade had something to do with it. When they called, they asked if I still had “the hair.” I’m even going to get paid a little something something for the gig. It’s easy and needed $150.00 for the day. I was just writing in my last post about my financial situation. Praise God. Now you understand why I decided not to audition tomorrow. I did call and emailed to reschedule. No response yet. We’ll see what happens with that.

I don’t even remember submitting for a Chris Brown Music video. I did however submit for a Mariah Carey music video. Maybe they made a mistake. Either way I’m ready to make it happen. I have to be there at 8:30am in the morning so I’m going to keep this post short.

On another note, I also created and submitted a video for another contest (I know…another contest). The travel channel is searching the globe for a host for their upcoming Travel TV Series called "Paradise Hunter". If I win I’ll get paid to travel the world in search of paradise. I’ll explore the sights and cultures of a dozen countries and search for my own personal paradise. In another words, it’s a 52 Weeks Paid Vacation. I’ll receive a salary plus I’ll get to own a property in a paradise of choice on the last episode.

This is the first contest I’ve entered in which I’m not sure if I want to win. The traveling will be great. I’ll be on national cable channel but that means I’ll be gone from L.A/Tampa/The United States for a year. Wow! The decisions I have to make. I don’t have the best luck with contests anyway but I submitted anyway. I was honestly vey reluctant about submitting at first but I’m not in the position to turn down any opportunities. Feel free to check out my submission and vote if you like.
