cheque corny happiness mature naive pay
I'm happy to sacrifice a big pay cheque for my happiness, if that's not too corny a thing to say. It's probably more naive than mature to say that, maybe, but that's how I feel.
good
If I were to have a dream job, it would probably be a poet. Then again, I don't think I'm a very good poet!
I read my sister's diary when I was 7. She was, I think, 13. It was awful to read it.
audience classes famous grammar loved morning moving recognized saturday sent since truly
Ever since my mother sent me to Saturday morning grammar classes when I was 7, I wanted to become a famous actor. I loved the idea of captivating an audience and moving them truly through performance, but more importantly being recognized and heavily lauded for that talent.
anyone hard
I've never seen anyone die. It's hard to imagine what it would be like.
age since stopped
I've been acting since age 8. I just stopped enjoying it as much as I used to.
admiration base believe certain communal good ideas practices publicly society universal virtue
I believe that communal admiration of individuals is healthy for society. It facilitates, in one way, the base of our universal standard, morals, but also publicly espouses the virtue of certain practices that are kind of like 'inherently good' in some kind of ideas of what the good is.
It's interesting sometimes when an audience can empathize with a villain.
gone suit
I wanted to be an academic when I was 19 or 20. But, I've gone off that idea. The lifestyle is kind of lonely and isolated. I don't think that would suit me.
gravitate
The lifestyle that comes with being an actor in a successful TV show isn't something I gravitate toward.
