I'm going to Hollywood!

I'm working on a friend's movie, "Plans," in Hollywood next month (no, I'm totally serious!) and I couldn't be more stoked. It's an Indy - which means funds are limited. Of course, there is no pay. It's a labour of love, and a great opportunity to work with others who are just as passionate about movies as I am.

I'll be the 2nd Assistant Director, which basically means assisting the Assistant Director, wrangling actors, and doing whatever else is needed to make the movie a success. I'm paying for my travel, room and most of my food. Adding this up, it's a bit expensive.

I decided to stay in a really cute hostel named "Stay." For a hostel, it's very clean and private. I get my own room (which screams IKEA) and I share a bathroom. There is Wifi, free breakfast and it's very secure. Oh, and there's a BED. An actual bed. (Some places in my budget didn't even have a stinking bed!) It's a little on the pricey side for a hostel, but I think totally worth it.



I could use your help (money). I hate to ask for help, but this was recommended by my very smart sister and the more I think about it, the better it sounds. I've created a ChipIn widget where family, friends and special folks I cant't categorize can chip in for the Send Carol To Hollywood Fund. I know the economy is in a bad place right now - so please don't feel pressured to donate. But if you have some extra scratch and want to contribute to my fund, by all means, click the CHIP IN button! It works with PayPal, so you can use your PayPal account or credit card to donate. And it's very secure.

And THANK YOU for reading!
