I don't think I've gone this long without an update since I got my journal here. I haven't been able to find the time to sit down anything of great length, and I'm not one to sit down at my computer to just one line you all to death. Just isn't my style. If I'm going to sit down and write an entry I am going to have some purpose for it. I don't know if I have any great purpose in sitting here and writing this entry today, but I am here. I don't want everyone to think that I've abandoned my journal now.
De-lovely is still being released. It wasn't released around the country all at once like most films were. It is being released though slowly but surely. As we all know this film let me use my own voice. I never was one much to sing. I left that to my mother and my sister Wynonna, but I can carry a tune. De-lovely is the first time I've let talent be used in a film. I always wanted to make my own mark on things. I tried to stay away from the music side of the world and make my way acting. Now the worlds have collided, and I don't really see it as a bad thing. I'm not saying that I'm going to embrace my musical side more, but I might not be as scared to use it in the future. Music is such a big part of my upbringing. I just chose a different path in life. One that has served me well.
As I mentioned in my last entry, I was heading down to Cambodia for some things. My trip there went well. It is a totally different world down there, and I got to see some of it during my visit. I learned so much, and yes I might have shed a few tears. My trip down to Cambodia was to help promote AIDS awareness, and I learned about some of the things those in Cambodia live with. They don't have all of the same opportunities we have here in the US for treatment. Like I said it is a totally different world. One I got to see up close and personal.
I hope all are well. sorry for my lack of updates. I've been out enjoying the outdoors so much that I didn't make my way inside to the computer much. I will try not to let that happen again.
