A girl flies to London with no plan, no training—just a blurry dream.

She calls Hamlet “Helmet” in her self-tape.
Still, somehow, she gets in.

From a childhood crush on film to a monologue taped to an a-ha poster,
this isn’t a success story—
just a messy, unpolished toast to all who leap before they’re ready.

Because sometimes, that’s all it takes to light the stage.

This is a love letter to anyone still figuring it out as they go.

For everyone still stumbling through the dark—
but still choosing to begin.

💬 Tell me what line stayed with you—or just drop a “Poor Helmet.”
