My name is Lucy. I work as a writer. I want to be an actress. I have taken acting classes. My favorite color is zebra print. My favorite animal is a zebra. I wrote an article called  "Release your animal instincts, feel zebra inside your body". I have a second job.
I do not work. I go to college and my major is science. i read science articles. I want to be a biochemist. I have a few years left of college. My favorite color is light red.
I just had an audition that went really well. Hopefully this will be a good step in my acting career.  Oh my gosh! That is so exciting. What is the audition for? It's for a part in an off-Broadway play.  I'm so excited!  There's a lot of competition for it but I'm keeping my fingers crossed.  There may be an opportunity for a part in a TV show but I'll have to wait and see on that one. Wow! That's so cool. How is the role? What is the character like that you will be playing? It's a woman who is suspected of killing her husband and it's a juicy role.  I'm just trying not to get my hopes up too high.  How is school?  What science courses are you currently taking? I am currently in a Mechanics of Cancer class, we are learning about nanoparticle labeling of cancer cells and using them to track how breast cancer can move around the body and cause cancer in other organs. That is really interesting!  I'm guessing that since you want to be a biochemist and not an MD, you are more interested in the research side of things.  Any particular field of biochemistry you are passionate about? Yea, this is one of my electives. I'm really excited about it because of the potentials of drug delivery. Rather than chemo, which is non-specific. This could allow us to deliver drugs only to cancer cells, which would make it much easier on the patient. But its the design of these types of drugs/treatments that really fascinates me! I've heard a lot is being done with viruses too, finding ways to deliver targeted treatment into cells via a non-harmful virus.  I think I read that it's something researchers are looking at with vaccine delivery, too.  In any case, you are definitely in a very interesting field of study where it seems like exciting things are always happening! It is! Though its a different kind of exciting for sure. I am terrified of being on stage and talking. I think the fact you are going to be in a show is incredible! Well, I HOPE to be in a show!  And don't think I don't get nervous, too, being on stage.  But once you get into it, you forget where you are and just live the part.  It's a rush! I know you will! Are you singing and dancing too?
