Hello World,
From now on I am going to make a huge effort to do my best to make a regular personal blog here. I will inform you about my endeavors, current projects, behind the scenes...my hopes and dreams.....everything! Uncensored.
Where to begin?
My name is Alexandra Di Novi. I'm an actress. I'm a storyteller. I'm a kid. I like dancing. I love music and my favorite thing is falling in love.
I guess I'm a dreamer and a passionate person. I first fell in love with life on set in 2005. That was my first experience in film...but I should probably start from the beginning.
There are no rules in this blog from now on. It is completely personal and uncensored. There is no set pattern. I will write from the heart what I feel without holding back.
The beginning is back when I was a little girl and I first saw Shirley Temple. I was probably three years old because that was around the time that I saw my cousin play violin and I started taking lessons. After seeing Shirley Temple I knew I wanted to sing and dance. I became passionate about tap. I competed all over Illinois in tap. Finally at 7 years old, I was in my first play. I was Maria in The Sound of Music at the Center for the Arts in my town. After that, I knew I wanted to be in more plays.
Anyway, more on my background later...
I moved to LA in August and I have been busy NONSTOP. I have completed seven different independent film projects and an array of tv gigs at Warner Bros, CBS, the list goes on.
Persistence & Patience.
My best friend is amazing. He lives in San Diego. I like to escape there when I can to get away from work. I love working. Acting is my life. I was definitely born with a purpose. I was born to act. It's fun for me to wake up everyday with a new adventure. When I was little I used to say, "I love acting because I get to play different people." Now that's different for me. I love acting because I learn a lot about myself through my work. It's a process.
Last week I shot a film in Chicago. This is my fourth huge film in Chicago. I worked really hard on set. I learned a lot. That's what I love about my job. I'm constantly learning, changing, growing. I am so thankful for acting work in my life. I am truly blessed. I thank God everyday for giving me the talents, abilities and drive that I possess.
Anyway, I fell in love with a guy. It's crazy because I knew from this similar feeling in my stomach I had with my first love. I know because I got the same feeling with this guy. Anyway, he's an actor too. He's great. It's just that over Thanksgiving, I realized that I may still have feelings for my first love...
