Turn Back the clock 2009

It feels as if 2009 flew right by me as if nothing has happened. In a few hours, 2010 is born and a new resolution will be created. But looking back, 2009 has been an up and down roller coaster. My father having to go through Emotional heart surgery, a few of my friends had past away, friends losing jobs, self healthy problems from flu, Pneumonia, Bronchitis, stress, and struggles with my love life. But through these obstacles, I proved to myself that I was able to get through them and fight long and hard to make things work from a mental and physical level.

The story of my life is that I have to work hard in everything I do to make something work for myself. I did not come from a rich family and people did not give me things willingly. I had to work hard to prove myself for things I want. If my life in 2009 was drawn with a graph to see my progress level, there would be a lot of swiggly lines going on the upwards trend. With what had been going on, I managed to get a lot of things done from Writing/Directing/Producing my first short film, obtaining a management contract from Credible Players in the music industry, and picking up a new skill that was needed which was Photography and Cinematography.

People look at my accomplishments for 2009 and call it a lucky year for me. But I don’t consider any of that luck. I consider that hard work that required diligence, patience, motivation, and passion. I believe with the drawbacks I’ve had, it actually stopped me from doing more on what I wanted to do. But I will hope for great things to happen in 2010.

So with that, I’d like to toast to those who read my blogs! “To inspiration, motivation, determination, and passion! Let success not be just about money, but about happiness and being content to what you love”. That’s my new year’s resolution!

Happy new year !
