Is It Ok To Get Into Acting For This Reason Or Am I Wasting My Time? Please Help!?


I am 18 and an aspiring actress with no experience. I want to do acting because I am a shy person and want to get out of my shell more. I want to test my limits, I’m tired of living it “safe”. I wanna get involved in a community or an activity where I can do something creative and share that with others. I am someone who likes to be creative, but haven’t really found my niche. I love writing and have written poems and stories since I was 5 years old. I have done acting once in my acting college class and really loved the experience! I did this in class play of Antigone and was a chorus member and even though i had a small role I still enjoyed the fact that I was apart of that experience. I wanna do something new and creative with my life. I love the idea of becoming different people in order to tell a story for the audience to enjoy, and one day i hope to be able to write a story too and hope the audience will enjoy it.
However, my family has side agendas of me wanting to explore acting. They want me to do it for the money and get discovered so we can all live comfortably (I come from a poor background), but I’ve seen on TV what hollywood can do to people and don’t really like the idea of it. But I still wanna try acting, because I have never been really good at anything and wanna try to be good at something for once in myself. I wanna do something I love. In life we all have one life to live and I feel if I don’t do this now then I will regret it for the rest of my life. I remember the first play that made me fall in love with theatre. It was the broadway play “Aida” and I just remembered saying to myself when i was 13 years old. “Wow! I wanna do that too!”. I want people to enjoy my work and inspire others too. To me acting is an art I feel doesn’t get alot of respect for the people who put their time and effort into it. So what should I do? Should I still pursue acting even though my family has hidden agenda’s or am I wasting my time? It’s just I am afraid if acting leads me into bigger opportunities my family will ruin it for me. My family doesn’t even know that I am studying acting as a theatre major, and am trying to get involved in theatre. However, they keep bringing it up like they already know. If u get what i mean?

Can A Book That Would Be Preferred As A Manga But Published As A Book Sell Well?


I started thinking about ideas for a book, I have written books before, but I was thinking more of a futuristic fantasy setting that would look really good in a manga, but I can’t draw for **** and I am thinking of just writing it as a book. Would that type of style of book be popular in the American market (No pictures, just words). The book would be about a boy who finds a magic pair of headphones, that he uses to help save either his world or another, and discovers the secrets of the headphones throughout the story.

Please Help What Should I Do?


Very long story, summed up.
So a few years ago a friend of mine and his brother had some rough family life and ended up living with us. Lets call them K and J. At the time J was still a minor (a month away from being 18) so for a while he was in the social services thingy and they determined it best for him to live with us since his brother (K) was already with us, plus he could go to the same school and all. AFter he lived with us for about 10 or so days we went to an outing out of town that we were all a part of. J hadn’t been affiliated with the group because his mom was nuts (that’s part of the family issues of theirs). For no reason during the outing J accused my dad of molesting him. It def never happened-I was there. But there was a police investigation and no charges were ever filed. But it was a living hell for a long time. That was all 3 years ago.
Here’s my dillema. If I have a single enemy in the world it would be J, and I think I’m justified in feeling that way. A good friend of mine (call her S) is now dating J. Her and J were friends years ago in high school and he treated her like crap and they bounced between being friends and hating each other. She knows about how he lied about that stuff 3 years ago. My and S are good friends but we havent talked, texted, or anything since she told me she was dating him. I really think that I miss her in my life. But I kind of feel betrayed. It’s messing with me. what should I do? please help.

What’s This Story Like So Far? Please Let Me Know.?


The story is about a romance between a songwriter, and a lawyer. The lawyers character is cliche, he’s got a very bad temper and at times…he can be pretty stupid…You’l see what I mean. Anyway, my story takes place in South Korea, and I used some actual idols.Tell me what you think.
When two worlds extend into one, when two lives begin to live together, when two paths suddenly entangle themselves in each other with one swift move, it can change a person’s fate forever. Nobody predicts what may happen in the future because it’s too unpredictable; the expected never seems to occur at all or on time. A perfect and happy family may someday break a part for several reasons. A workaholic father, a drinking mother, hidden secrets revealed suddenly to the family, a love affair. Yet no one saw it coming.
A young business man may suddenly find himself without a job, begging on the streets and losing everything he once had. His company could have gone bankrupt, his parents might have suddenly cut their ties, a merger may pull his investment out at the last minute, but no one saw it coming. Indeed this is a very unpredictable life we life, our future is never something that any person should play with because you never know where it might go. You may find yourself winning the lottery just before retirement or adopting a child from an orphanage when you thought it was the last thing on your mind.
But our hopes and dreams for what we may encounter keeps us working hard, and diligently. Every person has something they want, something they need, something they treasure and something they seek. It’s rare for anyone to not have all four, but if we just left it single-handedly like that, then the story would be plain and boring with no twists or turns.
We all thought that we knew the world and its values
We thought everyone had the same ideas and morals.
We thought everyone knew the meaning of friendship and love
And we thought every person wanted to settle down
Ji Kyung eyed the small diamond ring in the black, velvet box on the corner store, not twenty minutes away from the building she was currently employed at. The gold embraced the round, clear jewel inside the window glimmering and shining just right as the sun shone directly on it. Her eyes just like the ring, sparkling at the beautiful piece of jewellery; the want for it was growing more and more as every second ticked by.
It was like a child’s longing for the hottest toy on the market, the new robot with new moves, the new Barbie doll that came with the ken doll, or even the new ultimately improved soccer ball. But for people like Ji Kyung, whose income was low and wants were never satisfied, her dream of one day owning such a fine accessory would never come true. Deep in her heart, she believed in things that were more valuable than just the physical objects you can feel and touch.
Her watch suddenly started to sing a beautiful lullaby as the tips of the hands clicked 1:00. The faint tune of her favourite song was a constant reminder to her on the schedule that she had to keep when the distractions set in and overcame her concentrations.
“Oops” She looked down at the ticking Mickey Mouse clock. “I’m going to be late if I just sit here”
The beauty of the ring caught her attention for another minute, the dreams returned to her mind. There she was, despite current circumstances, standing above the solid tides of Hawaii, sucking on sweet coconut juice. The scenery only took her breath away, the waves only rising high enough for natives to ride their boards towards the beach, the suns setting at just the right time letting out its oranges, purples and yellows. But on her single third finger sat a beautiful ring, a diamond ring. She looked upon it with great pride and gratitude, the one thing she owned that proved her unity with another man. The only perfect one she had ever lay eyes on.
The ring of the watch brought her back into reality from the beautiful dream. With one last long glance at the ring that sat in the middle of the display at the front window, Ji Kyung turned away from it and started towards the crowd waiting to use a crosswalk only a couple feet away from her.
It was the usual day for Ji Kyung. She wasn’t expecting much less than the ordinary everyday routine, tired long hours in the office hacking her brain for appropriate song lyrics, business meetings, touring visitors, managing files, overseeing other workers, etc.
