I like fairies (thus why I am wearing fairy wings in the picture). Good grammar rocks, too. It doesn't have to be perfect but I get frustrated when people completely disregard it. I like every color except pink. I hate the wind. Sometimes, I carry around a little teddy bear I found at an antique store. His name is Robert. I dress very eccentrically. It's not unusual for me to wear a prairie dress one day and a Mod dress (think Austin powers) the next. I don't dye my hair, or wear much make-up. I think it's sad that no one puts any emphasis on natural beauty anymore. I think it's a good thing to be open and educated about sex and other issues that are considered taboo. I have a hard time seeing where homophobics are coming from.

Basically, I'm just some weird teenager in Arizona. If I haven't scared you off already, feel free to drop me a line. -Danielle

so i tried out for my first musical, actually my first anything, and i found out from some people that i was not a good singer at all. i think it was cause i was really nervous but i mostly think its just cause i dont sing good.well i always wnated to get a careerer in acting and theater like that. i just want advice/ your opinions about if i could still pursue my dream to be famous in theater even if i do sing horribly. because that same friend told me that i was amazing at acting. thanks! (link)
It is important to get lessons in both acting and singing if you are serious about a career in the field. If you think you suck, get a voice teacher, and if you're already good at acting, stick to trying out for the plays instead of the musicals. Also, you sound like you might be into broadway. Dance experience is good to acquire as well.

Edit: and just some realistic advice, you said you don't have any experience with acting, and yet you want a career in acting?... It seems to me that you like it for the superficial reasons...how do you even know you want to do that for a living if you haven't even actually taken any initiative to pursue it? You think people are just going to drop in one day and say, hey, you have no experience but you should be in our play!!! ... no. Don't take interest in it just because you want to be famous. I could be reading this the completely wrong way but I've been working my ass off in theatre during high school and so it seems weird that someone who has no acting experience would know enough about it to dedicate their life/career/whatever to it.

Your feedback: ok you just ruined my whole life dream i think i'll be a accountant like everyone else in my family! thanks, just think, you ruined someones life today! by the way, thanks for being a smartass about it too! ;]

My response: Pretty sure it was your choice to let whatever I said get to you and that I was just telling you the facts rather than what you wanted to hear. Look up the definition of smart ass- I wasn't being one. I wasn't being cruel, just honest. This is me being a cruel, smart ass: the truth?! YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH.

Bottom line: Maybe you should question your motives again if you were so easily swayed.
haha. Cry me a freakin' river.
