Planes and other Shenanigans

Everybody wants to travel but when they say that to a date over dinner, to their parents who don't believe they are responsible enough, to their friends as they sit on the balcony under the stars talking about their goals and dreams, they don't really understand or think that with travelling comes planes. And nobody, nobody likes planes.

When I went to Queensland I actually didn't mind the plane ride, it was the Airport that got on my nerves because some people don't know decency and respect and personal bubbles. You have those people complaining to their friend right in your ear, yet every other person waiting in the baggage line are thinking the same thing and only wish for the process to go as smooth as possible.

Well we don't always get what we wish for and above is a main channel video! Im sure a lot of you can relate.

Here are my social media links!

Under Pressure

Hey guys,

So check out my youtube video!

It's all about that pressure you feel from your peers, your friends, your parents, your teachers, society…

Have you ever been in the same boat as I? Where you are floating around and your okay but you're not exactly happy. You are just going through the motions and you are only doing it because you think this is what you want, what you have to want. For me, its my course. I'm not entirely happy with it. I felt like something was missing. I just didn't have that zing anymore. It was because the passion (if I had any to start with) was gone. I reckon the passion was more in the acting than the film making to be perfectly honest. It sucks because since year 8 I thought this was right. But I'm just not happy.

A friend had said than stop, and do what you want. I never knew it was that simple. But she was right. Life is so short to be doing something that is only holding you back from accomplishing something that is far more satisfying. So I made a plan, the plan does not involve anything about knowing what I want to do in life but its a back up so that is better than sitting on my arse all day and doing nothing.

I'm gonna get my Diploma (allowing me to be recognised by Film Victoria) I am then gonna get into full time work with Business administration (since I will have my Cert 3) and I'm gonna do acting on the side. Get enough money to set me up maybe even travel! I will have time and less restrictions.

I am happy with this. And as long as I am happy in the now then I think it is the right decision. I can always change my mind later. Nobody can't say I can't. It isn't their business.

That is what I was trying to say in the video and I hope you got that.

Here are my social media links! Lemme know whats going on with you guys, I'm sure I have some advice that was passed down to me (:

Grief

Everybody deals with it differently. I for one do not fall into the category of crying my eyes out or letting anything out really. When I hear of the news I just smile and go about my day.
A lot of people may find this insensitive or me taking it well. A lot of people just don't understand me well enough. They don't know any better. So their thoughts don't bother me.

The reason, I presume, for doing what I do is to prevent me from shutting down. Just so I can keep moving forward. If you want to share, comment below how you cope with anything really, you never know you can be helping out someone who is trying to figure it out. If you want someone to talk to just go onto one of my social media and message me. I'm always happy to help (:

For now here is how I coped with my friends death that happened a few months ago. Check it out (:

Hey there? Remember me?


Soooo….What you can see here is the Blood Moon everybody has been talking about. There are supposedly another three to come with a gap of 6 months between each. Some people say its to do with luck, others say its just a lunar eclipse of no importance, just Grandmother Universe doing her thaaang. Others say the world will end…I mean C'mon when do people not say that when something out of the ordinary in space occurs. Cry wolf? A lot would ask…but what if the world did end right now….would you be happy with what you achieved?

I know I wouldn't. Sure I've achieved so much. Pieces of paper don't mean anything to me to be honest. Its what makes me happy, and I have always struggled with making others happy even when I don't want to to do it, because it is expected of me.  I know you won't believe me but I am back into making youtube videos, its not like I had stopped watching my subscriptions its just I got busy doing things I didn't want to be doing.

I've sorted my headspace out now. I'm in it. I'm gonna give this thing a crack and how better to start it but on here. People forget that youtube-ing is blogging (vlogging) but my blog experience came from blogger itself. It all started here…not necessarily under this blog but my previous one. I want to incorporate this one as much as I can into my vlogging experience. So I'm doing that. I'm going to stop learning about Film, I will continue with this year but after it I am going to work, save money, travel and do things, the hobbies I want to do. I talk a little bit about it in something I just filmed and am currently uploading. The pressure we obtain or think we have to put on ourselves to know what we want at any particular time. I haven't found a passion yet, i thought it was film but that only came from acting, this youtube is more of a passion than film at the moment but my future is up in the air and I rather it be doing that than me juggling with it and having to fit in the stuff that I don't want which will always push the stuff i do want away. That is gonna stop because I am simplifying my life. I have barely any complications with work and personal life because I just keep the things that make me happy because I want to look back and not regret a single thing. Sure this could be a wrong move but it was MY wrong move. That is the big difference.

I hope you are still there who ever you are. I hope you have patience. Because I'd like this to reach somebody, not for the statistics but to feel like somebody is listening and that somebody may very well get inspired. Do you really think all this stuff that I have realised came from my own head? Surely not, I cannot take the credit and that person who helped me can't take the credit either…its just how it works. So let us work it out together.

Be the Best you can Be and Keep Smiling!
