There is a lot of down time in an actor's life. Well, at least for me there is. Because I am lucky enough to have a husband who supports me, I do not have to work at a restaurant anymore. But the downside to this is that I have way too much time on my hands. And since we do have to really budget our funds, it's not like I can go "lunch" with friends all the time. Now that they have raised the subway fare, I'm also avoiding riding into the city unless it is work-related. So this results in me feeling pretty isolated and bored many days. This is why I think I would benefit from a side career. Not only would it be great to make some money, but I need something else to focus on and distract me between "gigs."
The hard part is coming up with a side career that suits me, and is also flexible with acting. I love fitness. I spend many days working out and dabbling in yoga and pilates. So, I am contemplating becoming a personal trainer. Getting certified is a really commitment though. The process is pricey and time-consuming. And I don't want this to be yet another thing I have to hustle constantly for with little results.
Well, maybe the universe will whisper a great idea in my ear. I feel like I'm wasting my life just sitting around all the time. I want to feel busy and useful and productive.
Will try to update more frequently, though probably I'm the only one reading this.
