<div>Dear all,

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Some of you MAY have been wondering: "What happened to Amanda telling us all HER life’s?" or "Where did Amanda go NOW?" And some of you may not have given it a thought.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>So, I’m trying by to sum up "a chaotic tornado period of life" which has unfolded over the better part of a decade.
</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>A bunch of things have happened that I never thought would be probable --much less possible all at once. If anyone had told me <strong>all </strong>of these events would happen within the span of 5 to 10 years, I wouldn't have believed them. I probably would have <span>condemned it as improbable fiction. Or, if I did DARE to believe them, would have immediately set about armoring myself for the onslaught.</span>
</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong><em>Events</em></strong>:

</div>

<div>I almost forgot to mention: <strong>LOST BOTH GRANDPARENTS </strong>who were basically substitute or supplemental PARENTS. They were my North Star, if you will, and I will try to make them proud going forward. They are the <strong><em>reason for the season</em></strong>, if you will. Still have the suitcase my Grandpa bought me to travel back and forth from McKinney, TX to New York City, New York as a NYU Tisch Freshman. God bless, truly.

</div>

<div>Moved Cross Country <strong>TWICE</strong>

</div>

<div>Moved in an out of apartments <strong>FIVE TIMES</strong> in 2.5 years.

</div>

<div>Completed My MBA with <strong>Honors</strong>.

</div>

<div>Changed Job Positions: <strong>FOUR TIMES</strong>

</div>

<div>Went to ReHab/DeTox <strong>FOUR TIMES</strong>

</div>

<div>Discovered I have a form of Epilepsy not at all related to alcohol withdrawal
</div>

<div><strong>E</strong>victed <strong>ONCE </strong>in<strong> </strong>Texas which you have to enjoy the humor of that as EVERY WHERE ELSE I’ve lived has far stricter ordinances FAVORING the residents best interests<strong>.</strong>

</div>

<div>Resided in a shelter <strong>TWICE.</strong>

</div>
<div><strong>Spent</strong> a few nights in Denny’s
</div>
<div><br />
</div>

<div>Fell in Love <strong><em>FINALLY</em></strong>!

</div>

<div>Returned to the land of the living <strong>NOW</strong>.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I must say--it's been a ride and I've learned a LOT. I’ve lost a lot but I’ve gained a ton.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Presently I'm trying NOT to loose my storage unit full of objects chock full of memories. My grandmother's dishes, my purses my Aunty Kay and Myself bought me, books from trips to the half-price bookstore with my Dad before the 2000’s, DVD's collected from good times with friends and family, clothes from Marshalls &amp; Nordstrom Rack I bought with my BFF's and family: Katie, Karen, Krystal, and Emily. Finally, all my furniture from my very first apartment in NYC and my room in Los Angeles. All items Seth and/or Brando, Gary Kingston, and Lucas Atkins have helped hauled up stairs and assembled at one point.
</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>If you have time and want a laugh, please watch the video. If you can spare $2-$5 I'd appreciate it and I'll donate the equivalent to charity in 30 days or send you the amount back with 5% interest tacked on. AND YES-I will donate all $5K times 105% ;-) I haven’t forgotten! 
</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Remember I have an unstable Mother? Yeah drunken/depressed-Amanda let her into my life and boy- my acting teachers and mentors were right: ‘let the games begin…’
</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Seriously--here comes the nitty gritty of a future series called "Mama Drama" and it will not disappoint.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I'll deliver at least <strong>one</strong> video clip for each week since this Fundraiser started week detailing what happened and how. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I strongly believe most people will find it extremely entertaining.I mean-who hides carrots and birth certificates and drivers license from their daughter? Or anyone, really? We’re going to find out if anyone is entertained enough to “throw money” as Hope Arthur used to say-no applause in class ;-) <i>as we’re all still ‘working’.</i>
</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>So:

</div>

<div>Cell phone bill (February): $92.52

</div>

<div>Storage Unit Rent (January &amp; February): $639.00

</div>

<div>DART REDUCED Monthly Pass: $63.00

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I want to raise $1,600 by the end of this week, then SELL items out of my storage to raise that amount PLUS % 5.0. Then I will either return the funds to the donor (biting any transaction fees, of course) by April 7th - My 40th Birthday - or donate that amount to my favorite two non-profit’s:

</div>

<ul>

<li>The Lee Strasberg Creative Fund

</li>

<li>The Neighborhood Playhouse's Scholarship Fund

</li>

</ul>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>My life has been absolutely hilarious if you aren't LIVING it, believe me. So if I ever made you a pie, bought you a drink, made you laugh, or helped you out consider donating to sober Hurricane Amanda ;-)

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Be well,

</div>

<div>Amanda

</div>
