Good Boy, Sad Girl

4: Danielle

I just spent the entire evening with Noah at the wax museum.

Noah is probably the best co-star that I could have hoped for. He is funny, and he has a great personality.

I still can't believe that I am one of the lead roles in a fantastic new movie based on a book that has been on The Bestseller List for more than twenty weeks already.

It's insane.

I could never have imagined this in a million years; I always hoped to be in a movie, and I just never thought I would be in the lead role in the very first movie I was ever in.

This whole thing feels like a dream.

Noah seems like somebody you can just be sincere and open with. He seems like he will always be there for you if you need him to be.

I think that we're going to be good friends. This makes me very excited because I didn't think I would have any friends on set.

I think that it's fun that I get to have somebody to hang out with and have an actual friend, instead of just a co-star.

On the walk home, I admire all of the lights on all of the buildings.

One of my favorite things about San Antonio is all the lights that you get to see everywhere. Practically almost every building has lights on it, and it's a breathtaking sight to see.

I know, eventually, I'll have to move because I have to move out of my parents' house.

Hopefully, by then, I'll be a successful actress, and I'll be able to live in LA, where all the other famous people live.

Who knows if I'll ever actually make it there? However, I know that it's my goal.

I believe in myself, no matter how many people don't believe in me.

I think that that is what's most important, believing in yourself.

Even though so many fears and doubts creep into your mind and tell you that you can't do things and aren't talented enough, you just have to realize that you are.

You just have to push past those fears and doubts because you'll never know unless you try.

Some people let fear control them, and I understand entirely, that it can be terrifying.

Trying and failing is better than not trying at all. Just take a leap of faith because it might just be worth it in the end.

When I finally arrive home, I get ready for bed and grab a new book off of my shelves so that I can read.

Reading is something that I do right before bed because it relaxes me and helps me get into this other world and live this different life. Getting to escape to another world, getting to escape and live another life, is so magical.

After I've read my page goal for the day, I turn off my reading light and try to sleep, but I toss and turn.

All of my thoughts are running at a hundred miles per hour. This is happening. I'm the main character in a movie that's a massive deal in the book and movie world.

What more could I ask for? This is a dream come true.

I can't believe that I've made it this far. That's all I can think about.

I made it this far because I was good enough. No matter what anybody else says, I am talented and good enough for this movie.

Nobody is going to stop me or tear me down.

This is all I have ever wanted, and I finally have it.
