My name is Ann, and I'm 18 years old. Ever since I can remember, I've dreamed of becoming an actress. The lights, the stage, the thrill of performing—it all feels like magic to me. But there's a problem: I can’t afford acting school. My family struggles to make ends meet, and I know how important it is to support them. So, I work part-time at a café, saving every penny I can. I take every chance to act in local theater, hoping someone will notice me. I won’t give up on my dream; I believe that someday, my passion will lead me to the stage I’ve always wanted to be on.
