Hi, I'm Cara C. and I was born about a quarter century ago in a small town in Long Island to two wonderful, insanely beautiful, and strong parents of Chinese and Italian heritage that I am eternally proud of in this world and the next....I now live in Brooklyn and I am learning all about this wonderful exotic new place only 20 miles from home and my little pink bedroom from childhood, but it seems so far away. I had a magical childhood and as excruciatingly exasperating as my life currently is I still must admit I lead a charmed life full of learning experiences and surprises as I slowly learn to see the good side in everything. I'm currently still trying to figure out exactly what I want to do with my life, kinda in the midst of a quarter life crisis. I'm an aspiring actress/novelist and also a teacher, promotional spokesmodel, and getting into screenwriting. I have many side interests, including writing freelance for a professional boxing website called Boxingtalk.com. I am also an amateur boxer with 20 fights and the 2005 and 2006 New York Golden Gloves Champion....I may go pro in the future but sometimes I figure I may need my brains for the writing thing and my face for the acting thing but I've also been described as crazy so I'm sure I'll do it eventually. I love the small things in life more than anything and my family is close to my heart including my best friend Jessica and my significant other. I am easily touched by small acts of kindness and witnessing the indiscreet heroisms of everyday life and people....i am easily moved to tears when I see something beautiful which is often....so I may be mistaken for sad but I really just appreciate life very much. I love to travel and plan to do alot more of it in the future....last month I went to Italy, just me and my mother and a map and her quest for knowledge which rubbed off on me- I had a deep love affair with the ghost of Michelangelo in Florence(the great artist of the Cistine Chapel, the statue of David...holy shit you have no idea his art was breathtaking) plus we studied all the other great Renaissance artists....I recently went to Las Vegas with a bunch of boxing friends to just chill, see fights, be coarse, and LIVE after fighting our asses off in Madison Square Garden the night before....I love mystical intriguing places....I went to Europe last summer and saw the South of France, London, Paris, and Scotland and my favorite part of the whole trip was a real castle I found near Scotland and walked six miles through pastures in the middle of the night to reach with a laptop on my back and a blanket as a jacket....I would love to go to Africa on a Safari or to China or Australia next....hoping my journey will take me there and then back again here where I love....for now I am just busting my ass going on auditions, acting in independent films (I just got a part as a Chinese warrior nun! I will die a tragic death in the end plus I have small parts in two other films where I will also be brutally killed in battle, I think its really funny that i have three different deaths this year), dealing with writer's block, boxing competitively, and trying to support myself financially in the meantime....times get tough but all I know is I'm following my heart and letting it lead me to my destiny whatever it may be, hopefully you do the same!
