Hi Everybody,
I'm sure you've all been wondering what's been up with me... at least I hope you've been wondering lol. I am doing well; obviously with a move such as this there is a lot that goes on and a lot that can go wrong but I feel fortunate and blessed to not have had too many trials thus far. I have shelter, I have food, I am mobile (Thanks Metro!). I am working both at my regular job and I've done a couple of things in the industry so that has been a tremendous blessing and I know there is more to come.
I'm sure you noticed that my face is no longer gracing this blog. No worries it will be again soon. I am just going through my Winter blahs a little early this year. I know its barely October but hear me out. I'm sure I have peeps who can relate to this. The Winter blahs are that time of year when the weathers changing and the wardrobes are changing and you look at yourself and feel its time for a change there as well. It happens for me around Spring/Summer too so I need to add a little umph to my look to battle these blahs back quick. I think this early onset has a lot to do with my locale change and the accompanying homesickness. I haven't decided on a plan of action just yet but as soon as I have some updated pics ya'll will be graced with my face once again ;) In that same vein, as soon as my life gets a little more interesting (In a good way!) I'll update ya'll more often with info on my California exploits. In the meantime... in between time just keep me in your thoughts and prayers as I do you.
Love Ya'll

Geez, Feels Like A Month Already...

Has it only been 2 weeks!? I mean seriously can we say over it already? No no I jest (I don't), It's just a low point on the roller-coaster. Things can only go up from here. For example: here I sit in my fav coffee shop (It's A Grind-Vermont&Sunset). I've actually been here since 5:30am, just channeling my frustrations into what I hope to be something great... I tell you sometimes all you need is a crazy experience and ample time to write about it. But I digress... These last 2 weeks have been really good career wise. I can honestly say I hit the ground running; applying for jobs, registering w/ extra's casting agencies, submitting myself at every opportunity... I'm laying the groundwork, doing all I can so I'm feeling pretty good about all that. Clearly once I get truly settled in I'll be looking for visitors to help me battle back this homesickness (Yeah, its only been 2 weeks. Don't judge me). I won't call anybody out just yet *side eye* Oh, and when you come; bring me some boudin balls and a daiquiri. Thanks in advance ;)
P.S. Need a laugh?? Check out the video's page. I added another sketch I was featured in from the hit series Laugh Now Laugh Later...

California Dreamin...
Follow @Shana_Allen
It's official, I'm here!!
I arrived in Los Angeles Wed morning via a pretty lengthy (though I'm not complaining) Greyhound ride. All is well here so far. Just getting my bearings. The last few weeks getting here however have been CRAZY.
I had a wonderful weekend getting away
to Destin with my peeps; Apollo Prince and
Pandora Anastasia (Insider ;) Destin really was a
great place to relax, soak up sun and sand, and
just have an all around good time.
We left Sunday thinking we had such good timing escaping the coming storm but of course Isaac felt the need to come our way.
I am thankful my family didn't experience much in the way of devastation.
We did however get much needed family time as we were cooped up together (by choice) for about 3 days...
Anyway I have to run. I'll post again soon, hopefully with good news!!

Greetings to everyone who's reading this post. Thanks so much for taking time out to visit my site. You might be wondering what this is all about (as if the title isn't enough of a clue), let me offer a brief synopsis of what's happening here. This is Shanaallen.com and I am Shana Allen. I'm an actor with a big dream that has yet to be fulfilled and this site is going to allow my family, friends, and fans... wait, do I have those?! This will allow everyone who visits to see where I am, what I've been up to, and what I'm working on. It may not be much now but I'm hoping that soon this site will get a lot more interesting ;) So take a look around at what I've got so far (please excuse the mess we are a work in progress) and feel free to drop a line. I look forward hearing from you!
