DL/Shoot

First I want to say how excited I am for college ( minus the whole paying for it thing). At orientation, Discover Loyola, I met some awesome people! In just two days I had such a great time. Everyone was so nice and we had so much fun together. Group 45... 45 *Hand wave* 45 ahah : ) If I had all that fun, I can't wait to actually be on campus. Here's a list of my classes :

*Psych 101 ~ MoWeFr 9:20-10:10 ~ J. Fiebig

*Thtr 100 ~ MoWeFr 10:25-11:15 ~ A. Shanahan

*Musc 107 ~ MoWe 3:30-4:45 ~ J. Davids

*Stats 103 ~ TuTh 11:30-12:45 ~ P. Collins

*Socl 245 ~ TuTh 2:30-3:45 ~ M. Agilardo

Also, I did a photo shoot with my wonderful cousin/photographer, Victor Ivezaj. We went to main street to take some cool urbany pictures. I need to post some pictures asap from my shoot with VI and my other shoot with Mioara Dragan! So excited for my career to be taking off! I love life :)

I'm doneeeeee!

I'm done with high schooolll!!! Wooooo! So many mixed feelings about it, it truly is bittersweet. I'm so happy that I'm done, but I'm so sad to leave everything behind. On the last day of school I didn't even cry, but I cried the day before. That was because it was my last choir class. Choir is the BEST memory I will ever have of high school. That class was so much fun!! And I love my teacher Mrs. Holt. I will also miss theatre and Mrs. DeWulf. Those classes have helped me and shaped me more than stupid math or science classes. I'm so thankful to have had them! Prom was also suuuupppperrr fun! I'm going to miss everyone!! College is going to be even better! I'm really excited to start my new life.

Some other news is that I just did a vintage photo shoot with the amazing Mioara Dragan! She was so funny and sweet!! Her assistant, Sarah, was also super cool! Krystyna was the other model in the shoot. I cannot wait to get the pictures!!

This weekend I'm going to be going to PITTSBURGH!!! WOOOOO!! I'm sooo exciteddd. I'm going for the casting of The Dark Knight Rises!!! Yep pretttyy awesome, I know! My agent rocks!! Of course I will write how amazing that goes!

Okay I'm done for now! .. Oh yea... btw I loveee teen wolf! I love Tyler Posey.. Now I'm done : )

I'm Back

Since I've fallen off the world of blogger, I have had so many great things going on!! I don't even think that I can write everything that has happened. I'm going to post my resume just so that it can be easier to explain what I've done with the industry. BUT, what is not on my resume, sadly, that I think is really cool is that I was talked to by my agent about the casting director of America's Next Top Model. She is casting for a new reality show that is set in Putin Bay. She was interested in interviewing me for the show, but, unfortunately, they have changed it to 21 and up. Its okay though, because secretly I want to do bigger and better things. Right now I am just trying to gain as much experience as I can before hitting up California. Pretty soon I am going to be moving to Chicago!!! My sister, Marina, currently lives there and is having the time of her life (pretty much because she just met Bruno Mars and his friends and now they're all bff... no fair, I know Loll). Anyway, I am going to be attending Loyola University!! Although I am an actress, I will not be majoring in Theatre. Instead, I will major in Psychology/Psychology of Crime and Justice. I was always interested in Psych and Crime, so I think this will be perfect to be able to study and also have my arts on the side! While in school, I am planning on visiting some agencies down there and work with them. After that, I will go to my dream state, Cali!!! ;D Well, I don't really know what else to talk about, so I will leave it at that for now. Butttt.. I definitely will be blogging more often! Now let's see if I can paste my resume :o)

Short!!

I know that no one reads about my life, but just in case someone out there does, I will continue to blog for you! Besides, someday when Im famous people will look back to this..Lol! Anyway, I just recently filmed my first short with an actual role!! How Excitinggggggggg?!?! I am very happy I got to be a part of an amazing production and got to work with very talented guys! The short is called How To Change Your Life Without Working Too Hard. Sounds interesting, I know! I shouldnt spoil the movie, so I will only say that I play Glens(lead guy) love interest. My name is Audrey, I work in a grocery store, and Im off to med school. I definitely cant wait to see it finished. Im very proud of myself. It is another stepping stone in my life. Each role leads to another and I know there will be many more. I have always loved acting, plays, and just performing, but actually experiencing the whole film making/ on camera stuff is so exhilarating. Ahhh.. Im lovin life :D Also, my showcase has moved to July 18th. I am going to be acting. I am kind of mad because I wanted to model, as well, but since there are so many people, I could only choose one. Im still trying to sneak in and do both! I will be performing a commercial, unless I prove myself worthy of a monologue hahaa. If so, I will most likely use the monologue of Princess Bebe Helena. It is from a play written by Jacinto Benavente. I love it because it is very serious and powerfull. Side note- since Im not modeling in the showcase, I will still be taking pictures for my comp card so that I can hand them out. Im not positive on the date, but it will be soon. I am still going with the beach look. Its going to be so much fun!

Fashion Show :D

Yayyyyyyayaya!!! I was in my first fashion show on May 22, 2010! I was such an amazing experience! It was the first youth charity fashion show of the Optimistic Club in Detroit. My day started at about 10 am when I got up and got things ready to leave. My sister, Marina, drove me. It was at the St. Regis Hotel in Detroit. Definitely wasnt a good car ride there. It was pouring rain and we hydroplaned on the highway. Thankfully, all the cars stopped and we were okay! So I got there about 10 to 1 pm. We all practiced on the runway for a while because the runway was set up backwards! I then got into hair and makeup. Practice makes perfect, so we were on the runway until people started to show up. I got on my first outfit and waited. I modeled 5 outfits, which was super exciting because a lot of the others only modeled 2. It was very crazy and busy backstage, but that was one of the best moments. Both of my sisters, Val and Marina, were there to support and cheer me on - theyre always there for me and I love it/them! : ) The feeling of being on the runway and having hundreds of people watching you is one of the best feelings in the world! It is just so exciting knowing that youre entertaining people. It was so amazing and I wouldnt trade for the world. After the show, all of us models exchanged numbers and said our goodbyes- Im glad I got to meet and experience that with such awesome girls! I will never forget that day and I cannot wait for my next show!

Extra!!!

Yayayaaa! I had my first extra/film job on May 1st! It was soo amazing and I learned a lot! I met so many new people and they rocked. I felt so right, like I was home. Acting is my lifeeee<3 I will definitely be posting my scene in the movie up, once I get it! I was a goth chick who tried to kill herself by cutting her arm with scissors and burning her hand..Ha! Also, I am going to be in a charity modeling event on the 22nd! Tomorrow night is rehearsal and I am so excited!! When I get pictures, they will most likely be posted on my facebook -http://www.facebook.com/francinajuncaj?ref=profile -Check it ; )

Audition/Concerts

The Regulators audition went great! I am so happy I had the opportunity to audition for Justin Kady : ) Also, I was put in a casting for a commercial, so I hope that turns out well. I went to 2 concerts this week! I saw A Day To Remember on Thursday the 15th. They absolutely blew my mind. Im so in love with them!!! My favorite song was definitely My Life For Hire! Also, last night I saw The Bigger Lights, Anarbor, The Audition, and This Providence. All of the bands were so amazing.. I cant even explain how much I love This Providence! Next week Im going to a charity concert at Ike and The Hard Lessons are going to be playing. Im really excited to see them because I have never! Good life<3

Lalalaaa

So about a week ago I went on an audition for The Wars of Other Men. It was so much fun! I dont know if I have call backs yet, but praying I get that phone call : )Also, I just signed up for the modeling class at JRP, so Im super excited about that. And the  showcase is in June. I know I am going to do acting and modeling, but I have to try to get over my nerves so that I can sing.That also means I need to make my comp card. I want the beach to be my setting! Still working stuff out with my photographer.Everything is just so excitingg!! Haha. My cousin Nik is a rapper and he has his own studio. I just recently recorded a hook for one of his songs. It was autotune, which was pretty sweet. I think Im going to do some other stuff with him soon. And my bfff Mina recorded some stuff too. We are hoping to record a song together in the summer. Im getting into writing lyrics. Its pretty complicated! I only write like a chorus or a verse and then I get stuck haha. Im trying to think of exciting things since I last blogged. I went to a New Found Glory concert and it was amazing!! I went crowd surfing for the first time. I landed on the edge of the stage!!Hmm...I also took the ACTs. That was annoying and stressful! Since the ACTs, Ive been off my game on working out. Now that its getting nice out, I can run outside! Okay, Im pretty sure theres nothing else to write about for now...k byee :p

JRP

Heyy, of course I havent posted any new blogs since like forever ago. Hmm..whats new with me? Well, I watched new moon and it was amazing, as expected! Ive just been going to school, studying for the ACTs. As for my acting career, I am taking classes at John Robert Powers. It is a tv/ commercial workshop and is so much fun! I love everyone in the class and our teacher, Summer. It has, so far, really helped me out in how to audition and how to use emotions, your hands, and eye contact. We also did some improv, which was really fun.Tomorrow is my last class, but I am definitely going to be taking more classes there. For my class tomorrow, I have to rehearse a tv commercial, Jiffy Pop, which will be fun. I am also still sending out resumes and headshots to casting directors. I think I am going to update my headshots pretty soon. Thats really all thats new with me for now. I am going to try to post blogs more often, even if no one reads them. Haha! :o)

Twilight/New Moon!

Heyyy, I haven't blogged in forever. I am sooo amazingly excited for New Moon to come out. Twilight was amazing, but seriously New Moon is going to be 3487039478534905 times better!! 46 more days until New Moon comes out! I am trying my hardest to get my information out there to the castings for Breaking Dawn because all the others are over with. The pictures on my wall keep adding up and I love it! I love waking up to a huge poster of Edward Cullen : ) ahaha. Anyway, those are amazing and I will most likely blog about this again after I've watched New Moon to talk about how much more in love I am with it!

The Status

I don't really know how to "blog" but I'm pretty sure I just write about what I want. Well, yesterday my sister, marina, my friend, manda, and I went to a show. We had such an amazing time with the bands. The bands that played were The Status, The Prospect, and Time and Distance. We all hung out before and after. The Status had an acoustic set outside. They played my favorite song and it was really cool. It was about 2am when we left and got Taco Bell. Even after meeting so many bands, I still think it is so cool how you get to see them perform right in front of you when you have their music on your iPods and look up to them. It's also really cool how they are actually our friends. Today I'm going to the Armada fair with my friends. Tomorrow I have registration, in the morning, for school, then I'm getting together with some of my friends and my cousins from NY and we're going to go to the mall and watch a movie. Hmm what else is going on... Well, I recently just send in about 26 Headshots and Resumes, so hopefully something will get picked up. I have about another 3 to send, so I have to get those ready. This summer has been great- the castings, the interviews, and the concerts. Everything means so much to me, even if it didn't work out, I know that I have to work real hard to get where I want to be and I'm ready for the work. Seeing the bands really made me appreciate them more because I saw how much work and effort they put into what they love to do. I'm ready for it all! :o)
