Never thought acting was something you could make a living at. It wasn't until I was in college, and got a lead in a play, that I began to realize I might just be able to blunder into this profession.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I didn't pursue acting as a career until I got my first job. I didn't think I could make a living at it. You hear such horror stories about how hard it is to get work as an actor. It is hard, but I decided to roll with it.
Acting was never my first choice as a profession, but I came to terms with it when I decided I better buckle down and be the best I can be at it.
Since I graduated college, all I have ever done for a living was acting.
I grew up around acting, but it was never thought of as a career.
Acting is something I always wanted to do and knew I could do.
When I started in films, it never really occurred to me that I could make a career out of acting.
Acting was something that I grew up just doing. I certainly never thought about it.
Acting was a slow-burn thing. I found it was something I really, really liked doing, but it wasn't until my third year at drama school that I actually thought, 'Oh, right, I'm trained for this now; I'd better see if I can do it.'
I just thought acting would be something to help out with my student loans, but my first year as an actress, I made more money than my parents. That's when I realized it could turn into a career. After that, I put everything I had into it.
Acting is just something I always knew I wanted to do - acting and writing.
