*Worth the read. I promise* |
As my first photoshoot for my headshots approach, I am reflecting on how I never thought that one day I would be an actor. Not yet a full-blown working actor (besides
@herewearewebseries ), but an actor nonetheless.
Since I was a kid, I was always miss drama queen, believe it or not, and still am in front of my family and close friends. I was always performing in front of my family friends, dancing to Michael Jackson, creating dance choreography for all kinds of music, all while pushing myself to fulfill my dream of becoming a doctor.
I busted my butt in school, especially in the medical grad program, but nothing stuck in my brain. I later discovered it was due to my hypothyroidism in addition to other illnesses I was diagnosed with years later.
Fast forward to taking the right medications after graduating from film school, and re-developing what is now,
@herewearewebseries , with my partner for life,
@sedaanbarci , my memory started sticking again.
And now I’m here, after having starred in
@herewearewebseries . Been working in medicine on-and-off since 2016 to pay for my film projects and I’ve been taking acting classes at
@catapultacting to officially start my acting journey. I now feel like I can real do this. It is terrifying, but I running towards it scared.
And it might not be as a stable as medicine, but I rather be doing something that gives me life and happiness.
When I’m acting, I would love to continue writing and produce films and TV, and when I’m not acting, I’d love to continue writing and direct films and TV.
Please share any advice you might want to share with me. Thanks!
*I ended up buying these scrubs btw JUST for the headshots and future auditions. I have bunch of scrubs already at home, but they all have patterns, which is a no-no for headshots*
