Acting
Have you dreamed of being a star? Don’t like, because most of us have at one time or another. This is always a part of us that craves to be famous; it is part of being human. Most of us leave that fantasy behind and focus on the real world, but others pursue that dream. Maybe it is an acting workshop that encourages them to head to Hollywood. The amount of people who head out there each year to be the next Brad Pitt or Julia Roberts is unbelievable
I have never taken any acting classes. I do have an interest in film and Hollywood, but I am not interested in being an actor. I am more interested in creating the stories. Screen writing is very difficult, but it is also fun and something I do in my spare time. I maintain my real job to pay the monthly bills. One of my friends headed to Hollywood after college to get into acting. He had taken many acting workshops, and felt he was ready. However, things were very different when he arrived in Los Angeles. He had a wealthy relative to live with there, so he wasn’t living on the streets. He quickly realized every restaurant employee, bartender, and clerk in LA was an aspiring actor. This way quite the reality check. However, he continued to pursue his dream of acting. After a few years of no success, he became a personal trainer.
Hollywood stardom is a dream for many, but a reality for so few. Chase your dreams and you just might persevere. It is always good to have an education to fall back on if things don’t work out for you.
