Motivated to Find My Happiness

Hey everyone, how has life been treating ya? Things have been good with me. School has been balanced because I take two hard classes and two easy classes. As for work, I only work two days out of the week, so it isn't that bad. At this moment, I feel motivated to chase after my dream, so I thought I would write about it. My theatre instructor gave me a packet that included an application to join this acting organization called S.T.A.G.E. Upon reading about this organization, reading their website, and calling them to get more information, I acted upon my discretion in deciding to seriously join this group. S.T.A.G.E offers classes for acting, holds seminars and workshops, gives opportunites for members to audition for local plays and theatre, has a library of scripts, etc... Though I know this will not be cheap, since I have to pay to get a membership, plus the classes range in price, but I really want to try this. Everyone always hears me dreaming of becoming an actress, but where is my action right? Well, this is an opportunity for me to learn and experience. What better time than to start now, right? This decision was also inspired by one of my favorite celebrities, Wu Chun from Fahrenheit. I read his blog yesterday and what he wrote on one of his two recent updates made me start thinking. He wrote, we cannot wait for happiness to happen in our lives, we have to pursue it. We cannot just wait until after a specific time to start pursuing, but just do it now. Plus he quoted, "Happiness is not a destination, it is a journey". That is what encouraged me to seriously think about my life and decide to pursue my dream before I get too old to start. For those of ya'll that is reading, please leave me a comment in regards to your opinion. Thank you for taking the time to read this, I really appreciate it. I look forward to hear back from ya'll, bye!

Memorable Quote: "Happiness is not a desination, it is a journey" quoted from Wu Chun of Fahrenheit.
