Hey everyone! I am finishing my junior year of HS right now and I'm sort of in this panic of starting this year long journey by myself. My theatre experience ranges school shows to community theatre. I don't have a voice teacher and I have never done any theatre camps due to the "costs", so I don't really have any training. My parents are not so enthusiastic about my choice to go into MT (I also have a twin sis who wants to do the same). But besides that point they don't want to educate themselves on the process and what the next year will look like. (Lots of travel and $$$$) They have never been too involved in my theatre life except showing up for performances. Just a month ago I informed my mom that I had a list of 14 schools and she couldn't understand why I needed that many. It's very frustrating because all they see is "What are you going to do after college?" instead of, "How can we get you into a program?" I might have a potential job this summer paying $18 an hour which is great (despite cleaning public bathrooms and taking out garbage) A girl's got to do what a girl's got to do! I plan on using that money for app fees, hotels, voice lessons, dance attire/classes etc...(Not sure how far that money will last) I know their are a few kids on CC who have done this process themselves and I was wondering what I should expect and how to keep my life organized. How do I go about this on my own?
