To tell the truth, I didn’t want to audition. It was my brother, Landon, who actually forced me into the room to take the first step towards increasing my self-confidence, and expanding my horizons. I immediately felt welcome. It was as though I had known the people in the Nooksack Valley Drama Club for my entire life. They showed me what it meant to stand up for myself. I found my own voice both literally and metaphorically as an advocate for myself and any others who needed it. As I continued, the roles for which I auditioned increased in difficulty until I began to be cast in lead roles which were physically and emotionally challenging. Through these difficult roles, I came to love and value my drama family even more due to their continual support. They taught me the importance of patience, empathy, strong relationships, and of being

Whenever I would watch a television show or movie, I just couldn’t sit there and watch it without imagining what it would be like for me to be in it. Especially if it was a bad one--I knew I could improve it by being in it. I determined that one day I would try to do just that--be an actress. As an adult, my acting preparation consisted of six weeks of training in a private classroom. Some people will try to say that there is one right way to become an actor, but in my opinion (and experience), I would say there is never one route to becoming an actor.

The movie that I saw is “Speak”. In this movie, the protagonist, Melinda Sordino, rejects to speak to others when she gets into high school. She becomes unsocial and strange, and due to this reason, her life gets terrible. At last, she chooses to tell others the reason for her behaviors; the truth is that she was raped. After watching this movie, We could guess that she is experiencing a psychological disorder called Posttraumatic stress disorder(PTSD). Our book has mentioned that “PTSD is unique among disorders listed in the DSM-5, because it is the only one with a specified cause: To be diagnosed with PTSD, you must have experienced trauma” (Textbook, chapter 14, 14-10). In this movie, the trauma that Melinda has experienced is that she was raped. Her symptoms include hypervigilance, emotional numbing, reexperiencing in the form of dreaming and other

Since I was eleven years old, I have known that I wanted to act. It was something that my parents never particularly encouraged, nor supported, but the seed was planted. I was sixteen when I first stepped into my high school’s theatre for my first day of drama class, and it changed my life. I felt at home and I would even call it the point of my salvation. From discovering the theatre and joining the world of the performing arts, I have grown so much as a person and have found a sense of self and purpose that I didn’t have before. I could not have imagined that I would, or even could, have the immense passion for acting and theatre that I have today, and it is beyond me how I became so lucky as to find something that makes me so incredibly

Just as we cannot pinpoint the exact moment we learn our own names, I can’t recall when my love for theatre began, but it must have been around the same time. I don’t remember a time I hadn’t been fascinated by storytelling and performance. This childhood amusement only strengthened when I started going to school and we’d put on plays for parents, and started reading and discussing literature later on. To me theatre means the perfect alliance of performance, art and academics. It represents to me all the every-day aspects of life while also holding artistic value. My love for literature comes from my unwillingness to be bored.
