Just when I think that I've got everything in my life set, it goes and rearranges itself to where I become so frustrated, I can't possibly even think about fixing whatever the problem may be. What's wrong now? I'm having second thoughts about the whole entertainment industry. At least breaking into it. Should I even be thinking about that now, or should I just go on with school?

I went to a modeling/talent agency earlier this week. Just to check it out. Suddenly I was sucked into this alluring world of photoshoots and meeting casting directors...if I pay at least $1,000. That's money that i don't have and can't get anytime soon. My parents think that because they want the money upfront, the whole thing is a scam. I just belief they want to get my feet wet in the business as soon as possible. But I've been thinking about it, and I don't think that I'm ready to go that route.

If I were to start auditioning now, I'd most likely have to quit school. Especially if a decent opportunity came along I'm not ready to do that. Education is too important to me. Some people are willing to risk it all, but not I. I'm eighteen years old and the likelihood of getting randomly "discovered" isn't exactly a sure thing. A college degree, however, is. So I figure if I go to school, I'll start auditioning for things around my Junior/Senior where I'll be ready, because Freshmen year of college is way to early to even think about it.
