I have always wanted to act. When I was 16 living with my then high school sweetheart (great parents right?), I had signed up with a casting agency and was contacted by people from a soon to be very famous, Emmy winning series about "football" lol. It was a small extra as cheerleader.

May have given it away lol....

anyhow, my then self let my boyfriend tell me how he couldn't be with someone famous, big mistake I made dodging the drive to central TX for my start....?

But now I am in my prime age and done having kids, I want to act for real this time..

If anyone knows the first step I should take, I'd appreciate it. I am 27 now and can taste the drive in me to act. I am very good at it. Also I am in Tejas so I really don't know what to do here.....

 
I actually acted in a film a few years ago. I was casted by a friend who knew of special equipment and locations of where they wanted to shoot in the redwoods and the director thought I fit the part for the local law enforcement scenes. It was a blast. I am naturally outgoing and I can memorize lines and conform to my surroundings really well. I've had other offers since that time and I've declined. Mostly because of the timing of the film dates and locations were several hours away. 

One of the scenes I did I actually get into a heavy gun fight. Honestly one of the best few weeks ever. Yah you have to do the scenes over and over again but it was all entertainment to me. The pay wad verrry generous for my time. So it made me think it was something I'd pursue more but the stars haven't aligned for me again. But they will if the parts right.

Sorry I won't say what movie since it totally give away my identity but it had an A list actor and several B lists as supporting actors. The director loves it here. I am sure with enough digging and you looked up where I live you can find it but I'll let you hunt for it if you really want to know.

So my advice to you is try out for a part and do it if you have the time. I say being a famous actor is all luck. The main actor I worked with started out like me with knowing someone and them taking a chance on them. Oh and they feed you so good on set. Just thought you might like hearing that part.

Go chase your dreams. The universe is the limit. :)

I would look into some of the more reputable schools in your area and see if they have acting classes. A lot more goes into acting than people think. You can take voice classes, beginner classes and so on. When I was in college I took a couple and actually learned a lot about acting and myself.

  1. ontovzik @ ontovzik: When I had long term shingles, lasting two months. All he could give me was a 10 day supply of dilaudid. He looked at the ground while we were talking about it. I could tell he was ashamed but it was the legislature and the governor that tied his hands. He was very upset that non-medical political people, the media, and the scared public were controlling how he treated his patients. Someday those people will need meds and a hospital bed and they will be gone.
  2. ontovzik @ ontovzik: I had a great doctor, he had the true gift of a healer and he stayed on top of all the science. He straight up told me that for many people opiods work for managing short and long term pain.
  3. ontovzik @ ontovzik: He peed it in the snow in my backyard.
  4. WTF7218 @ WTF7218: @xenxra 😆😂. Yes, but only a few brave souls will ever find the number. You must first order a Dirty Shirley from the bartender. Then you must discreetly take the cocktail napkin from under your drink and unfold it. There you will find the map to the location of the phone number, and clues to decipher the code that it is written in.
  5. xenxra @ xenxra: he left his phone number scribbled in a stall at the pub three blocks down
  6. aBBazaBBa123 @ aBBazaBBa123: @rockychoc How do I contact you?
  7. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar I would try one of those easy online ones .. reddit gives useful info about that
  8. Alkazar @ Alkazar: @NYStateofMind I dont really have a history of abusing things, my docotr is just really stingy. I am thinking of switching.
  9. C @ Cheesus: Thanks xenxra
  10. xenxra @ xenxra: @Cheesus yeah, use snote
  11. P @ psychedpsych: Trump is cracking down….
  12. P @ psychedpsych: Hackers are the scum of the earth
  13. N @ NYStateofMind: so it was easy bc of my history
  14. N @ NYStateofMind: I didnt really tell him but he knew I needed a new script since my dr went to jail
  15. N @ NYStateofMind: @xenxra I was on Adderall since 15 years ago so my dr prescribed that w no problems and then when I lost my best friend my doctor rxed the valiums but
  16. C @ Cheesus: Temp.pm down for anyone else?
  17. xenxra @ xenxra: @NYStateofMind my doctor's have always been pretty open minded if i can actually come in and explain the pharmacological action of the drugs im seeking instead of just telling them why i think i should be prescribed. the only time it didn't work out for me is when i was trying pharmaceuticals for depression ten years ago and suggested they let me try testosterone instead (turns out i was hypogonadal so they made a mistake denying my request at face value)
  18. T @ Testisthebest: Even down here in Florida when the pill mill docs all switched over to Suboxone and/or retired you can still find some pretty liberal docs but you gotta know what to look for. Mine does "pain management, detox, anxiety,etc. And no insurance. My doc writes me 60 5mg Valium, 14 2mg Xanax and asked if I had ever tried adderal to get more focus at work as I told him I run my own business.
  19. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar do they know your history? Like I dont tell my doctor anything about myself except what they need to know,...I was able to get my dr to rx the highest dose of adderall along with valiums ..... if they dont know your history or there is no history I would just come out and ask what is the reason for their mistreatment.... they have no problem billing your insurance or taking a payment for the visit
  20. T @ Turbo259: @Layne_Cobain Thank you fam
