Ask Me Anything #7

a_phoenixdragon asked: If you could choose to be anything, anyone - who/what would you be?

Despite the state of the world right now, I think I would like to remain human LOL.

I've always thought working in the creative arts in some way would be fun, but I was never brave enough to go into it. That fear of rejection and such. But if I had a way to magically wish myself into a successful career as a performer, that might be fun for a bit. :) I'd love to try it out, putting on a rock concert for people or being on stage.

It would be sort of nifty to bypass all the rejection and nastiness, wouldn't it?

Would be nice to bypass all the hurdles but of course wishful thinking. My daughter loves to perform and whenever there is a children's play at the local theater she tries out for it. She loves being on stage but me not sure if I could do it. Fun to dream.

Closest I get is doing weekly storytimes. :) At least that audience is really easy to please LOL!

I love performing :) The anxiety and rejection that come with it? Not so much.

Being on stage is a lot of fun :D

It's always been my dream to act. A lot of things have held me back, but mostly being self-conscious.

I agree that remaining human is a good choice.

Theater can be a lot of fun, even if it can be nervous-making too.

Aww, lovely answer! Being human can suck, but there are high points, I'll admit. :D

(and you aren't the only one who would love to be a rockstar!)

Specifically a musician performer? Is there a certain kind of performance art you were skilled at?

[orangerful.livejournal.com]

I love singing when we play Rock Band? :P Does that count?

Honestly, I think I'd want to direct. I helped out with a musical production in high school and I had a fun time behind the scenes. When I was a kid I obsessed over the special effects and such.

Not sure if I'm skilled in anything though as I am too big of a wuss to try...unless you count storytimes, but performing in front of 40 toddlers is different than Shakespeare in front of 40 people.

ROCK BAND ALWAYS COUNTS.

Toddlers seem like an audience that could go either way lol.
