What's going on around me: Well, first off, still trying to finish up my Megumi page. *laughs* Gomen, gomen about the long update on my part of the "All about megumi hayashibara" I juss notice sumthin, u know how Megumi Hayashibara got engaged, or u say, "married" on her b-day? welpz, it might juss happen to meh.. See, i'ma gonna go see mah baby who lives in Boston durin SpringBreak. He did mention about engagement. hmm.. that would be so perfect for our b-dayz (his iz 4 dayz after me and megumi's). Welpz, I'm gonna find out when i get there... As you all know, my name is Eleonor but most of my friends call me Elle or Ellie. I was born on March 30, 1982 (same b-day as Megumi Hayashibara, but different year) in Marina (actually Fort Ord), California. When I was a child, I have done a little bit of moving around (my father was stationed in the army). Enough about that...
I was like Megumi Hayashibara as well. When I was a child, I always watch child programs like "Sesame Street" (still do ^_^) and classic cartoons like "Scooby Doo" and "Charlie Brown" (sometimes do, whenever I have the chance). I've always loved the characters from "SS" and I thought that the puppets were alive, which is very cool and wondered how they came to life, as for the the cartoon characters, I've wondered how they came to life. Up until now, I still watch cartoons and maybe I could be a part of the animation world: voice-acting.
At first, WAY back in the day, I watched "Star Search" with my mother, being surprised how young singers, being so talented, performing on television. I thought that I wanted to be a singer when I grow up (my first childhood dream). I used to sing alot, by using a toy drumstick as a microphone. (Pretty silly, ne? *laughs*) Then, I remembered when my family and I went to Hawaii to visit our relatives, my father started singing and I sang along. My relatives were surprised at me(except for my brother *laughs*), just because I sang with my father. Singing is now one of my hobbies but you know, I just claim that I couldn't carry a tune, which my friends think that I do.
As I was growing up, my family and I moved from Marina to Fort Jackson, South Carolina and my sister was born. My father took my brother and me to the circus when we were younger. I was amazed what the performers did down the center of a arena; they did the trapeze act, juggling tightrope, anything went. I was so amazed that I wanted to do that, but it seemed hard. After a few years in SC, My family and I moved to Baumholder, Germany. I remember seeing something on tv, about ice skating and thought that I wanted to be an ice-skater. My dream almost came true; I went to an ice-skating rink for a school field trip, but my dream felt it was over. I had no interest in it now.
As for my other dream, I thought of being a doctor or nurse but then it looked very difficult, u know, about the needles and everything. Maybe it would come back to me. Right now, I've been thinking about this nursing/med assistant thing. Maybe it could be my minor. Anywayz, about my "nursing" dream, I gave up on it, cuz like I said, I can't handle the needles and I could get squeamish easily.
Now in Colorado, all my childhood dreams were gone. I had know idea of what I wanted to do. Ok, since the 6th grade, I got into this acting thing, thanks to the awards show, like Golden Globes and Academy Awards. Everytime I see an awards show like that, I was like, "Man, they are so good. Being nominated for what they did." That was when I thought of becoming an actress and that was my dream ever since. And then, in 7th grade, u know, beginning of junior high (u know that hehehe ), I started getting into Japanese animation, and I was like, "Wow, I'm starting to like this stuff." Until now, I still love it. I bought my first anime magazine and there was this one contest about winning anime related, of course, but the grand prize was being a voice-guest on an anime series. Yeah, I did enter but never won anything. There's a next time or I could audition.
So then, throughout junior high and high school, I've been into drama, that I wanted to be an actress and voice-actress. See, all throughout high school, I've been having drama classes, being in plays, u know, I just love 'em. Right now, that I'm in a junior college (then go to a university I wanted to go in 2 years), I'm majoring in theatre. Hmm, why the reason to become an actress/voice-actress?
Oh man, I forgot to mention, u know, when I got started on the anime, I've seen a subtitled of "Ramna 1/2" and I was like,"Damn, they sound to great!! I really like the red-head chick." Of course, I always watch the credits to see who stars in the movie or cartoon or show. Then I saw the name of the female lead character: Megumi Hayashibara. She has been my fave ever since I saw an episode of "Ranma 1/2". So, ever since that, I've been watching anime, starring Megumi-sama.
I checked out her profile one time and I noticed that she and I share the same b-dayz, my childhood dreams were like her professions (the nursing and singing) and I sorta look like her (but I'm Filipino). Also, in her profile/bio, it felt as if my childhood dreams were coming back. Weird, huh? The nursing and singing are coming back. Well, darn, it feels like Megumi-sama and I have some things in common!! That's great, don't u think? (Wait, you're all jealous of me. *laughs* just playin)
I have to say that Megumi-sama had inspire me to become a voice-actress. So, that is, right now, my long-term goal to be a voice-actress. If she's still around, I might be able to work with her, starring with her in anime series or whatever. We'll see...
