Acting blog

     I was a very active kid when I was born, and so am I right now. I cannot stop keep moving, my parents even say I don’t know what the word “tired” means. So this characteristic makes me willing to present myself in front of many other people, makes me not afraid of expressing myself. Which is one of the most important reason why I take acting class. I was born in Shanghai, but growing up in Beijing, these two are two big cities in China. I had a very happy childhood memory.
     There are many important and interesting things about me. One of the things that I think it is fun to know is, I am a really funny person, I love jokes. When I was in middle school I’ve memorized a whole jokes book, I love see the faces of people laughing, they make me feel comfortable and happy. This characteristic really helps me to get a lot of friends around me.

     Another interesting thing about me is I am an crazy animal lover. I love all the cute animals in the world, especially dogs. I’ve had four dogs before, I feel like they were just like my family members, and I love playing around with them. Dogs are always human’s best friends.

     The third interesting thing about me is... I love food! All kinds of food! I also love to cook for the people around me. For example, my mom is really tired after the whole day of working, when she gets home, she would be so happy if I have prepared fried rice for her. Sometimes food really can make people feel relaxed and happy. I’ve been living in the United States for almost three years, so sometimes I really miss the food I’ve eaten in China before. To be honest, China is a very beautiful country, and it has very interesting culture, you will never be regret if you travel there. But of course, there are a lot of people.

     I am taking acting is because I have learned of it before and I really liked it. When I was in elementary school, I took a class called both acting and public speaking. At the beginning, I didn’t like it so much because I was very nervous about speaking in front of many people, I felt ashamed about it. The turning point of my attitude was when a conversation with my teacher. She said I have acting aptitude, and she said I would be doing great if I put more efforts in it, she really encouraged me a lot at that time. She was a great teacher, she had taught me too many things that have big impacts to my whole life. After that, I started to take acting seriously, after a while, I started to “fall in love” with it. I really like the feelings of experience the life of different people from different stories. I also think being able to speak in front of other people confidently is a very important skill to have in everybody’s life, My parents think that, too, so they supported me a lot while I was learning public speaking and acting.
     I hope I can enjoy every single class of acting and work hard on every project. I think it’s going to be a very fun year.
