This is Esther Mira's blog.
I am going through some personal things right now so I am not going to be around to update for a while. Just wanted to give you all a heads up. I’ll be back, don’t worry! Just need some time to clear my head and work things out.
Until next time, CHEERS!

Obama wins! And I couldn’t be happier. Just one request Mr. Obama, leave Mrs. Clinton far far away. Please do not (and I repeat DO NOT) consider her for your running mate. It’s not worth it and won’t do you any good. Plus, I’m so sick of her and her ridiculous BS.
Thank you and good night.
“YES WE CAN!”
Okay, so I was recently sent this awesome photo and I need to know where I can find it!!!
It’s my favorite food shaped like a koala! Can it get any better than that?!
GAHHHHH! I. WANT.
As most of you know, I am a huge fan of baseball (The BoSox are currently ranked number #1 in the AL East, woot) and football (the Patriots will kick butt this upcoming year I’m sure). But, the Boston Celtics are doing mighty well for themselves so I feel that I need to send them a shout out. They are in the Eastern Conference Finals with the Detroit Pistons and are hoping to get the chance to compete in the National Championship (I’m hoping against the Los Angeles Lakers because I love the Lakers too). Sadly, the Celtics lost last night in a very close game, but I’m keeping my hopes up!
If it turns out to be a Celtics vs. Lakers Championship, you can bet I will be getting tickets to see them play at the Staples Center.
COME ON CELTICS! I KNOW YOU CAN DO THIS! 
California Court Affirms Right to Gay Marriage
HOORAY!
Can the rest of the US follow suit now please?
I think some people might be confused as to what exactly I am doing as a body double on ER. When I was first brought in as a body double a month or two ago for a specific episode, I was there for the “simulated nude scenes” if needed (there wasn’t actually any nudity, just a bare back etc.). Now, however, I am Neela’s (the Indian doctor’s) double whenever she is in the background of a scene and not the focus. So, whenever you can’t see her face/only see the back of her that is me. Make sense? This is why I can have a thirteen hour day on set and work four to five days in a row because they need all of the doubles to be around for featured background work (like a visitor or a nurse) and to be readily available to jump into the background of a scene as the actual body double (if you will) of the main character.
I hope this clears up any confusion. I have tomorrow off so I’ll probably rushing around most of the day trying to get as many errands as I can completed since I haven’t had time to do any of them yet. I hope everyone has a fantastic week!
Just a quick message to let you all know that I updated my IMDb page with some new photos. So, go check them out!
I love, love, love working on ER! I know a lot of people would wonder why I would want to take a job that works such long hours when all you would ever really see of me is the back of my head/body in a couple of shots on TV, but I couldn’t be happier. Everyone on set is extremely professional and so nice. I like being in that type of environment because I learn so much (especially a ton about this industry and how everything works) from my fellow actors/crew members.
Because there is a lot of downtime on set, I get to catch up on my reading, relax and get to know the ropes when I’m not needed. I worked nearly fifty hours for four days last week and it was totally worth it. I’m starting to get used to waking up at 4am every morning and going to bed around 10pm every evening. One thing that rocks is that I finally feel like I’m using my whole day and not wasting any of it. Of course, this weekend was mainly filled with relaxation and rest, but I think that’s okay (we all need a little down time, right?). I got asked back to work again on Monday, so I’m hoping that this means I might have a semi-permanent job. This definitely beats working in the restaurant industry (no offense).
As for my audition on Friday, I think I nailed it. The only (possibly bad) thing I noticed was that I was the youngest-looking person there. Don’t know whether that will help or hinder me, but everyone keep your fingers crossed. I would die to work on “Night Shift” and the part I auditioned for is oh so neat!
So, how is everyone? Tell me something exciting happening in your life! 
I have today off from ER which means I get to relax and catch up on my sleep this weekend. I worked 50+ hours this week (yes, I am insane) 
. I have a huge audition for a series regular on General Hospital’s spin-off show “Night Shift” later today so I’m preparing for that most of the day. Wish me luck!
In the meantime, this is a YouTube video I found a while ago, but I didn’t have time to post it until now. It is probably one of the cutest videos I have ever seen. Enjoy!
I’m dead tired because I’ve basically been working non-stop since I got back from San Francisco on Monday morning (at 3am!). I was asked back to ER to do some more body double work for Neela (the Indian doctor on the show). I worked fourteen hours on Monday, twelve and-a-half hours today and I work tomorrow (and probably Thursday and Friday as well). I’ve been having a blast on set, but I will go into more detail about that when I’m not about to pass out. I have to be up at about 4am every day, so I try to go to bed no later than 9pm every night (I feel like I’m ten again, heh).
Anyways, the reason for this quick update is because I wanted to show you all some recent photos from a couple of shoots I did a few weeks ago. Let me know which one(s) you like the best/what you think of them!
Note: As you will see, these were all taken before I got my fabulous cut/color.
How is everyone doing? What’s new?
