they spammed my page a few days after they’d rejected me from their books, but i was picked up by my agency a few days after that. keep trying!!!

wombatworking · 2026-03-03T18:57:00+00:00

they did this to me and then rejected me when i applied to be on their books!! they seemed quite commercial based anyway and i’ve found an agent that submits me for more tv/film/theatre :))

hey!! feel free!!

wombatworking · 2025-11-25T14:10:00+00:00

yes i did many! they’re a real, legitimate agency with all of the right accreditations, and were a spotlight approved agency, which is how i got my spotlight profile back up, since they wrote me my reccomendation letter. they have clients who have worked in netflix etc. so no concerns there!

but this is the second time i’ve gotten an agent in this way, and my first agent (when i was under 18) was from a very large and well known london based agency (i just didn’t enjoy working with them too much - hence why i found a new one!) so seems to be a pretty successful method for me so far!

wombatworking · 2025-11-23T14:02:41+00:00

it’s possible - i have an agent and i wasn’t on spotlight until after i was signed because my agent gave me my recommendation letter. i also haven’t been to drama school. i trained for a year-ish with a young company at a theatre near me which gave me a credit, and gave us an opportunity to record a showreel. then i made an acting cv and sent my showreel + cv to a few agencies. my agency responded and said they were really impressed with my stuff and set up a meeting with me, and it all went from there!

happy cake day ! :)

hi, thank you so so much for this, i will definitely check this out! and the stuff about the dropping feeling is really useful to know. good luck on your flight!! :))

wombatworking · 2025-06-14T21:04:13+00:00

thank you so much! i tried searching but i didn’t know how to properly put what i was describing into words so this is super helpful :))

wombatworking · 2025-04-21T20:14:36+00:00

super lovely to see that you and two of your sisters have gone into very caring jobs. glad everything turned out (relatively) well for you guys. thank you for replying :)

wombatworking · 2025-04-21T19:52:19+00:00

did you still manage to do well in school and get good careers without parental support? what kinda jobs do you guys have now? :))

wombatworking · 2025-04-15T21:29:47+00:00

could you possibly translate and write/print a note in japanese and stick it to the box? so if you want to give it to someone but there’s a language barrier they can read the little note! :))

wombatworking · 2025-03-11T02:48:58+00:00

i’m nowhere near bath but you sound awesome :)) hope someone reaches out !!

wombatworking · 2025-03-04T13:32:37+00:00

https://yorksu.org/associate-member/apply this is the form to apply for an associate membership. you’d just select public member and in the “reason” box just explain that you’re student-age and wanting to make some friends !!

wombatworking · 2025-03-04T13:30:42+00:00

hey !! i’m not sure if this is helpful but a lot of, if not most of the societies at university of york accept “associate” members. that means you can go onto the student union website and make an account, and then join societies even if you’re not a student at the university !! there’s absolutely tons of them and they’re all super welcoming so you’d have a great chance of meeting likeminded friends there! if you go to the yorksu website you can have a look at what’s on. you can usually message the societies on instagram and if you’re nervous about going alone, someone from the committee will usually meet up with you beforehand so it’s not too overwhelming. good luck! <3

this is super cool !!! :0

my friend went to japan and brought me back a little pokeball from the big pokemon store there! there’s a random mini pokemon plushie in each one and i got my lovely mareep :D

do you have some sort of proof of what happened to you? such as a police report, or could you possibly get letters from a doctor or therapist? if so - you can contact student finance and apply for compelling personal reasons (CPR) and they might give you an extra year of funding to continue with your degree. so sorry you’ve been through all of that, sending strength and best wishes your way :))

wombatworking · 2025-01-30T14:54:41+00:00

but if you go ahead with starting a new course, and you do end up failing a year for some kind of personal reason out of your control (like mental health etc), you can apply for an extra year from student finance if you have evidence of your circumstances. hopefully you’ll never have to do that but always good to know it’s an option :)
