when i grow up, i wanna be FAMOUS, i wanna be a STAR, i wanna be in MOVIES

no, i really dont want to be any of those things i mentioned in my title. im just a little oscar-crazy from just watching the academy awards. Its so inspiring seeing those people on stage, and knowing that the next generation, i will be growing up with those people, and i might even know them! Theres some people i know who have some real talent and i could definetly see them making it in the film industry.
but, i must say, i do want to be famous. for the right things, of course. I want to make the most beautiful clothes for the world to see. its going to take some work of course considering the fashion industry is hard to make. but i really want to prove myself. a couple weeks ago, me and a friend were talking about our future, and i mentioned how i want to move to NY, study fashion and get famous. in the background i heard someone laugh at me... it didnt bother me. It just added more fuel to my fire set in my heart and added to the drive to prove to people that im gonna be somebody some day.
a lot of people my age say all sort of things like, oh, i want to be a film director, but they dont even know the first thing about it! im actually putting effort toward my dream. i stay up sewing designs, practice drawing, and never stop dreaming of the day i hit success.
i really truly want to make it in this industry. to prove to everyone who said i couldnt, and to everyone who said i could, and most importantly, to myself.
the hard part is that i dont know where to start. this is not a career path that is accepted in our culture. i am going to school to become a teacher. but i want to be more than that. i want to be more than average. i want to get educated but i want to LIVE. i dont know.. maybe ill start a new trend in my culture... ultimate success.
i need to give this more thought. time for bed!
