So far I know that I did not get one of the auditions. As far as the other one, I still don't know. My monologue was amazing though. Did I have it memorized? No. I made it up as I went. But hey, it was still good.
So here is why I am so confused. This acting thing is fantastic and I absolutely love it, but how do I keep doing it with school at the same time? Summer is coming up and I have summer school. Basically I will be in school from 10-7 so how can I act? I don't want to give this up. I want to work hard for what I want because maybe then I'll achieve it. Then theres the fact that I am almost neglecting my school work for this semester because I'd rather be acting. I just wish things could be easier. I feel a bit stressed out from not knowing what to do. Then, to add more to it, I agreed to write a screenplay for an upcoming web movie. Where do I find the time?!
If someone could please comment and leave me advice that would be great. Thanks.

Could you take a semester off from school? See if the acting thing is worth it, if you are doing well at it, then continue acting.
I would love to do that, but I can't because of my parents and insurance reasons. Any other suggestions?
Sleep less... Besides that, I don't have any other suggestions. If I had better time management I would be going to school too.
I LOVE SLEEP.
Me too! I'm sometime really good at it too. I also like eating and breathing as well.
YESSS!
1. If you didn't actually memorize your monologue that negates performing it. That's called improve, if that's what you're good at, maybe you should focus on that instead.
2. You also probably are not a writer so maybe you should forfeit on that webisode, particularly if it's stressing you out.
3. School is a real thing. It leads to real jobs that you actually get paid for. Being an extra in the background or some dead body on Law and Order is not real acting. And nobody actually becomes famous overnight. Stay in school.
4. Summer school is even easier than Fall or Spring semesters in college. Plus, you go to a community college, if you could get good enough grades you could transfer to a better school.
I'm not trying to sound like a douchebag or anything I'm just trying to be honest. I really understand that you want to be an actress because of the glamorous lifestyle but there are more realistic ways of achieving wealth. Everybody can really appreciate your intensity and drive but you should consider channeling it elsewhere. You're a smart girl, you're just fixating on the wrong things for the wrong reasons. Acting is a craft. It takes years to perfect it and it is real work.
