Okay so, I was sitting around thinking about goals for myself and I was thinking I really want to be an actress, ya know, make something of myself. I'm stuck in my tiny town and I can't get out. I want all of the people in my town to be put on the map, for us to be recognized, for us to be something. I want to be able to die and be happy because I did everything possible, no regrets. I want to be the next Selena Gomez or Miley Cyrus, they both come from small towns and rose to the top, of course Billy Ray had a big part in Miley's excellence. I want to do this, I am so dedicated, I want to be seen on tv, wear beautiful dresses, meet the stars, attend Gala events, I want to be on Disney Channel, I didn't think small town girls were possible until Debby Ryan, look at her, she came out of nowhere. As did Nikki Blonski of Hairspray, she litterally had no experience at all, the cast of the movie found her at Coldstone Creamery taking a break from filming and they liked her so much they just asked her to go down to the studio to audition her. Please don't just write back "Good Luck, you won't get anywhere" Anything is possible so don't be a jerk. I want honest advice, what do I do next? Acting classes? Are the classes going to be costly? How do I audition for a show? Do I send in a tape or do I have to go somewhere? Please help me, I want this so bad. (link)

Hey. There's nothing wrong with chasing an ambitious dream. Really. Shoot for the stars!
You need to be prepared, though. There is a lot of competition.
One thing that you can do is be involved in theatre productions in your community. Mine has several and for several levels of expertise. Acting classes, if you can get them, are good, but any high school drama class will do.
Singing is a very important part of acting, believe it or not. Many of the best singers I know have in turn become great actors as well. It helps define your personality and facial features. It makes you more unique.
Maybe also consider a career either in theater or even arts management! By becoming educated in the business aspect of acting, you are helping show the public how talented you really are.
As for auditions, just be on the lookout for local tryouts, and be confident! Our culture is really evolving by means of trying to put various people on the big screens. We don't want Miley Cyrus, Ashton Kutcher, and Taylor Lautner in every movie. Agents are always trying to find new personalities.
Most importantly, don't let anyone discourage you. There are more opportunities out there than you'd think.
