Oh, and better be aware of it now. I'm a nerd. I like my brain. Chances the advice I'll give you is to use yours, too.

But then again, don't we all love our brain?

i love acting. or i think i do. i love to sing.. but we live 1 billion miles away from hollywood[literally]. what should i do? (link)
If you only think you love acting, my suggestion would be to look around in your community or your school and see if you can join a drama club or something.

If no such thing exists, then gather a group of friends and try to get them into Improv or something. Write acts, perform at the local karaoke bar, whatever, but act and sing. Practice everyday.

Then, when you feel you're ready to act professionally, look up in the phone book or on the Internet for an agent (if you can afford one) or look for casting calls for commercials. Have pictures of you taken. Appear in the Sears catalog if you have to. Just make sure you gather experience.

Whatever Paris Hilton says, you need talent to get in Hollywood. If you just fly to Hollywood and hope to work your way up to an Oscar, well, I wish you good luck, but you just might end up with a waitress job at the Planet Hollywood. (Do they still exist, by the way?)
