Finally

I figured it out, I think. I'm talking about my inability to ask for help. I'm quite sure there's a psychological link to something in my childhood about never needing to ask for help, or wanting to do things on my own, but I'm not about to go there. I need to conquer this somehow and just ask when I just don't get something.

A short post today because I'm cramming before work tomorrow morning and the first exam in the afternoon. While I don't get everything though, I am not nearly as bad as some people who only went to 2 lectures this term! I do hope they get somewhere with their all night revision though.

What else did I do today that is of any recognition? Well, it might not seem much, but I completely avoided any sugary foods proving that if I put my mind to it, I can do anything. Actually, that sounds particularly pathetic, but the sentiment is true.

Oh, an addendum to this post that I completely forgot to mention; today I discovered the genius of Karl Jenkins, a Welsh composer and conductor who makes absolutely amazing music. It came about from a message I received through my 'Swansea Media Group' facebook group [Which led to me creating the video I'll embed below] asking for my help in creating a video to play in the background of a choral performance of 'One Armed Man' by a local choir. To cut it short, the man is a legendary composer, and I urge you to listen to a performance or two. Also good is the aforementioned message, meaning I might be able to snag myself some work this May, I just hope I don't forget about it.

Before the video though, just wanted it noted that I actually progressed with my drama today, and filming will begin this weekend. Except I'm lacking two of the actors I need, and need to cast them asap if I want to proceed with filming. This will be all that I think about during this hectic week ahead. Okay, my music video, enjoy:
