I have the support of my parents and my teachers. They made it very possible for me to go to a school that is open and supportive of me being gone at times and pursuing acting. But school always comes first for me.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My parents were very supportive of me and my artistic endeavours. My father and mother came to every school play I ever did.
After high school, I was going to move out to L.A. and try to pursue my dreams of acting. My parents said, 'That's fine. We support you, but you have to go to school,' which was fine because I'm a studious person anyway; I enjoy it.
My parents weren't keen on the giving up of school at the beginning to go into singing and dancing, but once they saw I was serious about it, they gave support. I was quite stubborn about my decision, and in the end, they realised it was for the best.
Once I started the first school, I realized this is what my life is meant to be, is to promote education and help kids go to school, and that's very clear.
School was a very cruel environment, and I was a loner. But I learnt to get hurt, and I learnt to cope with it.
I was the daughter of teachers, so school was always very important. I liked it.
My family and school life are important to me.
Luckily my parents were not against my ambition, they've always been very supportive. But they were adamant that I went to university first.
My mom was always keen I stayed in school and got good grades, and she was always keen for me to do medicine. I used to go to drama classes when I was younger, and she would always take me. But when I got to an age when I decided it was what I wanted to do, when she accepted it, she had actually been the most supportive person ever.
My parents have always been very supportive. I didn't go to school because my home was my school.
