Found your site through StumbleUpon. I made a big move like that too, from Florida to L.A. Let me tell you, L.A.'s going to be an adjustment period. It's a whole different culture and mindset out there. You'll do well. Just be ready to adjust and adapt. :) Also, as a tip for in the future, WAIT until you actually get to the apartment before handing over a bunch of money. Sometimes, when moving out of state, you may have to put down a deposit. But say you'll pay rent as soon as you arrive. There are, unfortunately, some scammers and thieves out there. Of course, this only applies if you're moving in with roommates and subletting from them. If you're actually signing a lease with a property manager, that's a whole different story. And being that it's L.A., they're used to people coming and going, and some landlords will let you sign a lease before you have a job out there, provided you have good credit and are willing to put down a larger deposit. Best of luck man, keep us posted! btw--what part of L.A. are you moving to? Peace, David Best of luck, my friend! Found your site through StumbleUpon.

I went to Bible College in Lansing, and frankly, I hated that town. Seriously. Your post is well thought out, and I'd like keep up with what your progress is. I am a voice actor, and God willing will be moving to LA to pursue voice overs in animation. Blessings, ~Sarah Good for you!

You see, I too want to become an actor... Last night I was contemplating going back to college and continuing in a program that I dropped out of 2 years ago, but now that I've read this, I've wrote down my goal, and will be moving to Toronto in January, to begin acting classes. I don't have a place to live yet, or a job, but I have applied for 3 positions, and hope to hear back from some. Keep posting, I love your blog. :) Lately I have been confused about what I want to do in life, I continue to bounce between working and school, but without any definitive objections.
