It's fair to say that this week has not gone off to a good start. I'm already under a lot of stress, so blanking on something was not how I wanted to start the week off. Fortunately, I rescheduled, but it still made me feel a bit mad at myself.
Secondly, I'm having problems asking for help from others because, well, the things I want to ask about require MONEY. As in, hiring photographers. I may not be in a good financial situation, but it has more to do with the other person. I had asked someone (Who will be nameless) about what photographer she had used when she was in Chicago and she never replied. It was just a simple question. If I were her, I would've been nice enough to give the info. Forget her. I know there's a lot of other people who'd be nice enough to help me, although I'm not sure about some of their suggestions. I had tried modelmayhem.com with the warning that it was kind of sketchy. Nothing came out of it. I do not know what I have to do to find a photographer in this area who is competent and does cosplay photos.
That leads me to my final gripe. I've put a lot of thought about moving to Burbank, CA or thereabouts. Of course, this is going to take a lot of effort and money and since I'm trying to find a job HERE, it's not easy. I'm contemplating on if $810/month rent is worth it or if trying to find a roommate would be better, and finding a job there as well as finding an agent and joining SAG/AFTRA...it's not going to be easy, let me tell you that. I would like to be out of state/country for a while before I even start saving up to do that. I just do not want to put it off anymore. I keep telling myself I deserve better, and it's not going to be easy going after that. I just need people behind me right now.
