The Feeling Of Acting.

I have always loved being the center of attention, so natural eventually I got into acting. The thrill of being on stage, all eyes on you and everyone hanging on every single word you are saying, all that creates a feeling like no other feeling I have ever felt before. It's like your totally lost within a different world, but somehow you've never left home. It's the hardest feeling to explain but I swear it's one of the best feelings you could ever have!


The greatest feeling I have ever had after stepping off a stage was last year when I did the Porter speech from Shakespeare's famous play Macbeth. Everyone was laughing and when I got off the stage it felt like somehow I was in a daze. It felt like I was almost flying and that nothing could pull me down. It felt like it wasn't real at all! It's probably one of the best feelings I've ever felt.

The worst part of acting is the end of a play. The cast gets so close that it is hard to say goodbye. It's like leaving your family, but at the same it's sweet. It is sweet, because of the fact that you have accomplished the impossible. You have created a new world, with new people and showed this world to so many people, nothing else in this world allows you to do this. These casts never ever split up forever. You see them around and you still feel like you're close, even if you haven't seen each other in years.
