Your dream sound fantastic keep going never give up I know I will see you in some major motion pic one day.  Sadly I love acting out plays in the schools drama club and even though they say I am really good I do not want to become an actress the reason is show business a shallow business those who become famous tend to lose themselves in it and become as shallow as the industry.  Those who were born into stardom end up like this most of the time I think its great that you want success and you have a dream, but it will never happen if you do not believe you can do it instead of looking at odds have a little faith and get out there be known even if you fail realize its a barrier and break through it if you believe it you can do it a close friend told me that and I believe it.  My dream is to become a writer/director and I like writing fantasy\'s and fairytales but with moves like lord of the rings and Harry potter I began to question myself if any of my writing was any good I still do but I hang on to that hope that someone will see and feel what I feel in my stories I have already got some of my poetry published I think I am off to a pretty good start.  Lets make a deal you become a big star and I will write a blockbuster hit and we will work on a project together and take the movie industry by storm

Writers tend to like paragraphs. If you\'d like to earn a living by writing, you better start liking the enter key, or u won\'t make it. Remember children, quality not quantity.

lets get one thing straight my writing here and the writing I hope to get published one day is two different things. here I am bull shiting around and responding super face my actual writting is more well put togather then this.  i take my time and spell check and so forth because in my stories i wanna take people to the places i descibe here I just want to make my point.!!!

You should keep your acting dream alive, Darth.

My drama teacher in high-school (very experienced and respected) said that I was the most "naturally talented" actor she had seen in her 20 years of teaching.  But when it actually came to auditioning to get into the schools, my lack of confidence meant I not only did poorly in the interviews, but screwed up my lines in the audition.  (Not to mention the fact that I\'m better at interacting and adlibbing, rather than just doing a stupid 2 minute monologue )

Then, I just gave up.  I had the one audition, for the one place, and even though I had the opportunity to audition for other places, I never did.

I was lucky, though.  I found another thing that I love doing, and have am currently in my first month as a Chef\'s apprentice.  With a bit of luck, in 3 - 4 years time, I\'ll be fully qualified.    Plus I look hot in my uniform

Do you have to wear one of those stupid hats?

I wear the black skull caps.

Although I\'d love to wear one of the "stupid" hats.

Not to mention a big sign saying "Ace is a patronizing asshole"

Hahahah, touched a nerve!

Only joshing you there. I\'ve been known to cook a dish or two.

You touched no nerve.

As a writer, do you not agree that the quality of your abilities are reflected upon everything you write?

I agree. I\'m not a writer by any means, but I do try and keep a certain level of quality to everything I write down. It will help you in the long run to do so.

I am, at least, taking advantage of this place. I am here to improve my english. I usually read my posts out loud as I am writing them, or after I have written them, to get a sense of the sentence-structure.

Bob, I have been called a natural talent as well. Yet I never take the praise as the truth. I always approach the positive feedback as if it was given out of pity, not out of respect. I don\'t believe in myself yet - but I still have two years worth of time to kick my self-confidence up. Hopefully I will succeed.

Dude, being a chef is the way to go.  Chicks dick something like that and you can cook yourself good food too.  They also get paid pretty good which is a plus.

Oh god, you make me cringe! "is two different things", "writting". I\'m sorry love, but the make-my-point-excuse isn\'t going to cut it. There\'s just waay to many mistakes there for anyone to say that you don\'t need to improve. Its just writing, c\'mon!! If you got it right the first time, you\'d have more time to think about the "artistic" aspects of your text and less time correcting the technical issues. K?

Do what Darth Joyda is doing and use this place to improve your english. You might be a tad high-horse-ish about it, cuz you\'re a native english speaker. But by god, this Finnish boy speaks (or writes) better english!

Heh, Avvy, I prefer writing. You should hear how horrible my pronounciation is - although I am trying to improve that as well

DJ, you have perhaps the most impeccable English skills at this board, save the possible exceptions of Watchdog (if he still posted here - damn English professor) and Ryu.

Just thought I\'d throw that in there.
