Blog 2: Why Theater?

Hello, Again! I hope you're doing well. Welcome to the Second Blog.

 Today i'm going to tell you why I decide to study Theater.

I remember that I never have nothing cleare about what I want to be when I grouw up, because I want to be EVERYTHING I want to be an astronaut, a painter artist, a teacher, even a nun. But my family loves remember me that when I was very little, my dream was to become in a butterfly... That was a very hard dream, i think i was very demanding...
When I had like 9 years, I went to Scouts in a church very near from my house untill 6 years. That was the happiest time of my life... It was there when I start to experience the game, the ritual, the show  that now I can find in the theater. In the scouts I discover my skills and personality too, because everything you have to do it in groups. We have to do a lot of performance in Camps and I really like that. I think that my vision of do theater is very "scout" .. Jaja
Anyway, when I grow up I think I really want to my parents gets satisface with myself, because in that time, they was very demanding and I was the black sheep of the family. So when I was in the end of the high school I changed  my idea of study medicine, to study arquitecture. To be honest, I'm  very bad at chemestry . I don´t know who I want to cheat  studying something with science.jaja
 Meanwhile I participated in the drama club in my new school. And it was very fun and more profesional that others drama clubs that I met. Actually there was a lot of friends who want to study theater for real. So that was the time when I started to think the posibility to study it.I think that in the Theater yor really can be everything, don't you think?

When I decided to tell my parents, wasn't so easy. But in the end, they support me. As you know, I start to study in Valparaíso with my school best friend. It was really fun  but I think I wasn't ready for the University preassure, So three years later I took a gap year from my studies.
In that year I reconsider if  study  theater was "my thing" . But with the time I decided to try it again in the place that I really want to study at first: Universidad de Chile.When that happen I was really happy and my family too. I had to start to live in another city and do it all again, but i was so decisive.

 To be honest, everything start fine, but with the time I get disappointed of the institution, because to the University, the arts are the less important thing. There is a lot of failings, so we don't have regulars clases, there always different problems... But with all the things that I had to going through, I think that nothing can't stop me. I met amazing people who wants to become an artists, and I think that when you decide to study arts you have to know that it will be hard. But i'm really sure that if it's your dream, it worth it.

My dream is to be a really good actress. I would like to act in theater and TV too. I would like to teach theater someday, write and direct and I would love to make a theater company with my classmates or friends and travel with some play. There is a lot of things that you can do with the theater, but I think that what I really love will be to  live of my career and dedicate to it hundred percent.  I would like that in my country, Chile, the arts gets more valorate and i would like too that more people have the oportunity to experience arts, because it can change your life.
