Handling Rejection

This past week I have found out that I am not going to be attending a drama school in September and will have to experience the audition process all over again come October time. It's not been the easiest news to digest but I have turned things around into a positive.

Here are a few tips I want to share on how to face rejection and turn it around so you can look positively onto the situation instead of being negative.

1) Have a day to get all your emotions out about what has happened

2) Plan out your next move and what work needs to be done so you can succeed. 

3) Make lists of what work needs to be done over the next coming weeks and be active with them.

4) Start the process again, whether it's a job interview, an audition, ucas application or maybe even blogging. It can be anything.

I just feel that life is too short to dwell on the bad, when in fact something amazing may be around the corner. Things to happen for a reason we just need to give it time to find out what that reason is. I know life can throw some crappy things at you and you do need time to deal with them, but just also let yourself turn it around.

Be Happy!

Love,
Phoebe Eve

The Wonders of Timehop

Hello to anyone that happens to be reading!

I was just scrolling through timehop, as you do and I was reminded of this blog that I had actually forgotten I had. I started this about two years ago when I was going through some changes in my life and was struggling with a few things. The main issue at the time was my anxiety.

Honestly, I had never experienced it before and it was a big shock to me when I experienced my first panic attack. Since then I have still had some up's and downs but to be honest I can, on the whole, control it now.

But when i was reading through my old posts i was reminded of how much I actually loved writing posts, even if no one was reading. It was just something for me where i could speak freely and get my feelings out somewhere. 

In the past two years I have finished school (happy dance) and have been trying to get into drama school so I can continue my dream of becoming an actor. I have had some really great experiences since I finished school and I am auditioning for drama schools all over again. But overall, I have learnt a lot and these things I would like to share with you. 

To motivate myself to write posts again I am going to set the task of writing a post a week, if you are reading this and would like me to write about something or answer a question please let me know and I would be happy to do so. I'll be back next Sunday!

Love,
Phoebe Eve
