My Life, As Seen Through My Eyes

My life is very much a work in progress.

Being young and having the entire world at my feet, I am slowly beginning to understand myself and getting to know myself. I’m at that stage where I am figuring out where I want to go with my life, what I want to do and how I want to get there. Sure I have dreams but who doesn’t? Dreams are what drive us towards being who we want to be and give us an unparalleled drive to succeed.

I’ve had many dreams in my short lifetime. I’ve wanted to be a singer, guitarist, astronaut, actor, director, blogger, lottery winner…. the list goes on. I want to be a “somebody”, a person who will deeply be missed and loved. I want people to go “I knew that man, he was remarkable and has changed the world for the better, and he will be deeply missed.” I don’t want to leave this world unknown, a simple memory that will eventually fade and not make my mark. I have a lot to offer, as well a difference, I want to have done a lot of things that I consider to be cool. I’d list them here but I’d much rather blog about them after I’ve done them, that would make much more interesting reading.

After that small introduction into what I want for my life, I’ll let you know about the project I’m currently working on. Well, I say working on but it’s much more like a work in progress, a lot like my life. I’m pursuing my directorial dreams and I have a lot of ideas about movies that I think would work really well. I watch many movies and TV shows so I think I have some good resources at my disposal and have grasped what factors can make a production successful or not. My only setbacks at the moment are 1) the weather and 2) myself. In order for me to make my directorial debut I have to finish my story so I can make it into a script and then find actors, locations etc… I already have a video camera and am going to test out my camera work and practice throughout the summer, both on holidays and just days when I goof off with people. However, before any of this can come to pass, I have a goal to drop my weight to around 12 stone. I used to be over 18 stone and have dropped down to 15 but it’s not enough. It’s not good enough, image is important to me and sure that makes me a bit shallow but that’s me. I care about how I am viewed and if you want to label me go ahead, I’ll just cry in private HAHA. Yes I am caring and sensitive but that’s why I’m loved

There is lots of production and video editing software out there and I love the fact that given time, motivation and dedication, I can learn anything. I have faith that my imagination and abilities are unrivalled. Sure there are many things I cannot do and there are lots of people out there who can and will do things better than me but I still believe in myself and my own abilities. Without belief in myself, I won’t achieve anything. This doesn’t mean I won’t occasionally ask for help or approval, I’m always looking to impress, whether it’s others or myself. That’s not a bad thing is it?

If you’re willing to go with me, I’d be happy for you to come along with me and share in my life experiences; I will keep everyone in the loop of my life. With success comes many perks and, with a bit of luck, success for me will mean bigger projects and better technologies. Then I can really make my mark on the world and hopefully use my other ideas to try and make a difference, and help to bring about a new age of man, but that’s me being a hopeless romantic and optimist.

I think I’ll start by finishing my story … sorry … stories … I have already started to write another! Lord help me.
