Did You Call? | Bitsy Dungaree
https://bitsydungaree.wordpress.com/2009/01/19/did-you-call
January 19, 2009. God can be tricky. He calls some people to be missionaries and pastors and a million other things that tangibly further the work of His kingdom, leaving me to ask what good I can possibly do as an actress. As selfish, cutthroat, and vain. I don’t know. But I’m trying to trust. Trust that I’m on the right path. Trust that God gave me talent and passion because he wanted to use them. Trust that my gifts are valuable even when they can’t be fit into ...In which the role of Christine was pl...

Don’t Ask | Bitsy Dungaree

June 11, 2008. Author Po Bronson begins What Should I Do With My Life? With a discussion about the dreaded cocktail party question:. What do you do. There are many reasons for disliking “the question” but Bronson figures, if we don’t like the question, it’s probably because we don’t like our answer. I hate admitting that I am an actress. Do I hate being an actress? That silence in the moment before I have to answer. What do you do? I’m an actress. Los Angeles is a city that is obsessed with labels. So wh...

August 11, 2008. Be Careful What You Wish For. Knowing myself to be a fairly confident gal, I have been confused and, frankly, scared as, over the past few weeks, I have seen myself repeatedly crippled by shame and doubt about my appearance. I don’t have it all that bad in the looks department, so I kept asking myself,. Where the hell is this coming from. This childish insecurity I thought I had conquered? And then it dawned on me that, in the midst of reading Wild at Heart. But who is anyone else to say...

June 19, 2008. Love Me, Love Me, Say That You Love Me. Why do we fall in love? This is a question I have been asking myself a lot lately, along with ones like: What is love? What does it mean? How do we find and preserve it? Can love look completely different but be equally true in different relationships? I am radically rethinking the idea of love. I am beginning to doubt my motives for loving in the past, and am consequently having to restructure what I am looking for now. But in love with. I think thi...

May 28, 2008. Matchmaker, Matchmaker, Make Me a Match: a closer look at online dating. Under my mattress, I keep the drafts of a book I started a few years ago about dating. I wasn’t masquerading to write this book as an expert, but more as a novice who had suddenly realized that she was up to her eyeballs in a nonsensical world that she didn’t know much about. Was it possible that cyberspace was just one more place where Mr. Right could be waiting? Curiosity is not something that I have ever coped well ...

Remember When… | Bitsy Dungaree

June 10, 2008. What are your five earliest memories? In his exploration of how the family dynamics of birth order shape how we develop as individuals in The Birth Order Book. Author Dr. Kevin Leman mentions that he always asks his therapy patients to list between five and ten of their earliest memories. Leman believes that, though sometimes seemingly random, there is always a reason behind why these are the memories that have stayed with us and that they tend to be quite revealing. So what are mine?

Let’s Not Put a Label on It | Bitsy Dungaree

June 5, 2008. Let’s Not Put a Label on It. Do labels really make our life easier? My good friend Katie. Suggested in a recent blog that they do, that we allow ourselves to be labeled because it saves us from the pressure of having to exist outside our comfort zone. And I think I agree with that to an extent; the “hot girl” knows that she is not being invited into The Privacy that Encourages Love-Making. Though only loosely related, typing this keeps making me think of a conversation at my Bible study a f...

Shake Your Money-Maker | Bitsy Dungaree
https://bitsydungaree.wordpress.com/2008/06/01/shake-your-money-maker
June 1, 2008. In “The Importance of Being Earnest” do I have to play Gwendolen, or can I play Cecily? I asked my bartender last night while perusing the script instead of working. You have to play Gwendolen. If I could go back to being a young actor, I would spend less time trying to challenge myself and more time making sure that I was better than everyone else at what I was already good at. Is my chance to challenge myself is over? So the burden is on me, I suppose, to find a way to do what I’m b...
