I skimmed this- it looks like you're like many other American kids who're all over those 'cool' dudes who are performing 'effortlessly' on stage. Trust me, it takes a really twisted person or total prodigy to get on stage and perform like that- I make speeches for school and I just take it in stride, laughing with it.

But acting is a big pit that you have to be very prepared to be in. Your company screens all your facebook, twitter, social sites and you have to act how they want you to. If you included your education/degree it would help a lot. I think you need to find some small jobs right now (a motivator, I suppose. You'll feel better about yourself) and move on to something bigger and better that you enjoy.
