I was studying theater at Southern Methodist University in Dallas and feeling anxious and uncertain about my future．Will I be able to support myself？I 1 ．That summer，I decided to see if I could 2 it on my own．
Two girlfriends and I piled into a car and 3 to Aspen，Colo，where I found a job as a maid at a resort hotel．I don't remember what I 4 ，but it was so little that I lived on spaghetti（意大利面条），brown rice and Kool-Aid．
I was at the hotel by six o'clock every morning to 5 with continental breakfast．When breakfast was finished，I cleaned the room 6 it was served and then the conference rooms and lobby restrooms．I had never been in a men's room before，and I was always terrified of someone 7 in while I was on my knees scrubbing the floors and toilets．
I came from an upper-middle-class background，and my parents' friends always treated me 8 ．But now that I was a helper，I found that many of the guests of the same background were not so nice．That was a 9 ．
People were 10 to serve themselves at the continental breakfast；it was my 11 to walk around the room and refill coffee and juice．But some people wanted me to do 12 for them．I remember one man who kept 13 me to get his food and demanding things we did not 14 ．He was also very critical．Even though I wanted to say，“Go and get it yourself．”I knew it was my job to be 15 and do in a nice way whatever I was told．So I'd take a deep 16 and somehow get what he wanted．
Still，I've never forgotten how it felt to be spoken to so 16 ．Today，whenever I am in a cab or a restaurant，I always try to be as thoughtful as possible．Service-industry jobs are not easy，and they're even 18 when people treat them like dirt．
My first job also helped me gain confidence．After that summer I realized that what I had been afraid of in acting was 19 ．I now knew that it would be worse if I failed at it without really trying．I decided to give it all my 20 ．If I failed，at least I would always know that I had done my best．
