Big break in the USA?
Preface
Why am I doing this? This is the way of coping addictive enslavement, and a way of alleviating pathological fantasizing after watching SYTYCD last season. It (this sickness) started in November, and is still not cured. I have since watched seasons 2 and 3 and Australian season 2.
I am not a particular good writer. I am missing (one of) the most important ingredient → dialogues to make a great story (or to make a story great),. This piece is just a collection of observations and self reflections, mainly a composition of monologue. There are two reasons for this. First is my reservation to put words into the characters, to do that will be almost blaspheme. Second is my personal lack of imagination and creativity. My imagination, stops only so far (or so short). In my head, there are activities and interactions between me and the characters, but somehow there just ain’t no words to be produced. Maybe I can not think outside of the TV box. Therefore I have not inspired into the work more what you can see in the show and/or research online. Or maybe there is the 3rd reason: the lack of time. Life does not allow me to spend much time on this [the inspiration of words].
In the end, I am writing to cope, to vent and to alleviate, not to create a master piece. Just remember, this is for me, not for you.
0 Prologue
Being on working holiday is a great thing, especially the agreement between the 2 countries just happened few months earlier. This is my 4th week in the Colorado Keystone ski resort. Being a chef at night, shredding the white stuff during the day. It is a life that I have no complaint for. Think it was a Tuesday night when I was just minding my own business at the bar during my break, then came some screaming kids about some audition with a brochure in their hands. What caught my attention was the bright blue writing of So You Think You Can Dance. So You Think You Can Dance??? I am all ears now. However, there was just too much giggling and laughing, so I got no useful information from earsdropping. The shift ended in the usual chaos, and I went back to my dorm and quickly googled out the audition dates.
- Dallas Jan 17-19
- Charleston Jan 31- Feb 2,
- Salt Lake City Feb 4-7
- Washington D.C. Feb 21-23
- Los Angeles March 6-8
I should finish things up in the kitchen here by mid Feb, hopefully can go to Washington D.C. Which can give me a 2nd chance in L.A. However, if I get my ticket to Vegas at Washington D.C., then I got few months to shape up and take some intensives. The calculative self hard at work in thinking.
Have I mentioned that things are big in the USA? cars are big, so the roads are big. the servings in the fast food restaurants are big, so the people are big [guess that explains whey they need big cars also]. and I am looking for my big American break into the show biz.
