6a,
One of the majer alfrections is undeubredly the desire f2
engage in werk that oan be different doy-to-day, or Wook
to-weok. Tis important ta reise that many people are
horrified by the thought of a reqular eight-hour day with a
fixed timetable. It's equally importantto understand that
for people like this, doing the same tasks dey i, day out
ould be extremely boring and even depressing. In light of
this, itis unsurprising that the entertainment industry is so
attractive.
A second attraction in unsurprisingly, the possibilty of
becoming famous: Although Would-be actors or singers
might prefess a dis)ke of fame and what itbrings it
nevertheless true, in my opinion, thatthe idea cf beaming
@ household naree, bith the associated benelits is basically
hat many strive for After al whenyeu are perferming, you
ant your performence totoueh as many people as posible,
and fame and popularity certainly allows thot 10 happen
Whereas both attractions are unquestionably important
believe the more significant is the chance To become
famous. This also brings the opportueity To jelect project
that bestsuit the artist and their lifestyle. Who wouldn't
embrace thet aitemative te a comparatively unexciting
daily routinejob?
