I've Got A Dream, I've Got A Dream

After reading the chapter in Carrie's All I Know Now book about having a dream and working for it no matter how realistic it is it got me thinking about some of my dreams. Some of my dreams could be just classed as goals but I do have one dream that pretty much won't happen but I can still dream right? 

I kinda um want to be a face character at a Disney park. 

For those of you who doesn't know what that means it basically means I want to be one of the people who dress up and act like one of the Disney characters. I'm not 100% sure who I'd like to be and wouldn't really care if I actually managed to be anyone but I feel like my personality and looks would suit Rapunzel best. 

The problem with this dream is for a start I'd have to move country again, I'd want to be in an English speaking country so that only leaves America - either Florida or California. Once that's achieved I'd have to wait until there's actually an opening and then attend auditions. To audition for a face character you have to go through different rounds; singing, dancing, acting and of course looks. Now I'm not totally tone deaf, I don't have left feet, and I feel I could act like Rapunzel pretty well if I worked at it so all of those can be taught. I would happily wear green contact lenses and adopt a chameleon if it improved my looks more but I doubt that would get me to the point of being chosen. That's if I qualify for the height restrictions, I'm not sure of Rapunzels height restrictions but I know for a fact I'm too tall to play Wendy and Alice unfortunately. 

So you see it's not that my dreams realistic but it'll be very hard to do which is why I've been aiming for smaller dreams that are more obtainable in that I don't have to move country just yet. Do any of you have a dream like me? Slightly unobtainable? Let's sing it out Rapunzel style... 

I know some more things now! - Book Review

Yes yes another YouTuber book, but hey Carrie Hope Fletcher isn't just a YouTuber, shes an actor singer writer YouTuber, so surely this'll mean bigger and better things right? Well for a start I've actually only read Zoella's book (which I enjoyed) so I can't really judge the rest but I can say that although some parts of Zoe's book sounded like her most of it you couldn't tell. Carrie's however sounds like she's sat in your head reading it to you, if I didn't have loads of uni coursework hanging over me I probably would have finished it last week on the day I got it but hey I gotta graduate!

Even though I was looking forward to All I Know Now* coming out I wasn't sure if it would be the book for me seen as it was aimed to be the 'big sister advice' type book and I'm only a year younger than her. However I was surprised at how much actually related to me; I was able to look back on my teenage years and cringe and cry, and also learn a little bit towards present life. Being an actress (currently Eponine in Les Mis in London's West End) the book is laid out similar to a play; with an overture, acts, and a finale, although I personally didn't take much notice to them but more to the great illustrations. I always love it when 'older' books like this have illustrations, not just kids love pictures!

I don't want to spoil the book for you but Carrie covers a range of things that are both deep and important, and fun happy things so you'll be sure to find something that tickles your fancy! I know a lot of my ex friends could do with reading this book and learning a few things mhmm *clicks finger and wiggles head*

All I Know Now is available now in your local bookshop and online so grab a copy if it's your thing!

*I was kindly gifted this book by Hachette NZ to read and review however I would have obtained this myself otherwise to have a read as I love Carrie so all thoughts and opinions are my own :)
