i guess if i get someone to shoot me some professional looking headshots i could at least get considered, and i could go to some kind of workshop in the summer time.
i'm so understimulated and need some artistic action asap, and i'm definitely not ready to take my musical act to the stage at this current time haha

in australia at least it is incredibly difficult to get work even if you are trained, and more so if you not, out of all the actors i know in australia i only know one who is untrained that gets work, part of that is 'cos she is super hot and he other part is she has some good raw natural talent.
auditions are incredibly hard to get without having an agent. it is advisable to do some workshops, particularly with reputable theatre companies. these will look much better on your cv than a workshop with someone or a company who no-one has heard of. apart from that, maybe look into what sort of training is available at the universities and colleges. Perhaps try and get involved with a new up and coming theatre company or perfromance company.
as for the head shot, it is important that you atleast have something professional looking. it isn't hard to get a decent head shot and you don't necessarily have to get one professionally shot if you know someone with a decent slr.
