I apologise for behaving unprofessionally in other spheres, in order to maintain professionalism in acting.
I apologise for being far too excited when work is obtained.
I apologise to my east coast friends and loved ones — that time I had to leave for opportunity in California was pretty hard.
I apologise to my California friends and loved ones — that other time I had to leave for work in the Southeast was also really difficult.
