I'll explain why. I have been back in the United States for about three months now and used the economy as an excuse why I can't find a job and I have embedded in my mind that I am going back to the Philippines very soon for a certain "something" which is true.I'm not certain enough I should go back because people think I'm nuts to go back and I have it going good here.I'm also doing the "something" for a friend who believes I can do it and I have a chance of getting to the top and its uplifting that someone does actually believes in you.
So those are reasons I became a FREAKIN bum in my house waking up at noon, eat, then workout, dinner, then do some internet surfing.
With the free time I had for the three months, I could've done something useful. With all of you wondering what that may be, I will elaborate on that.
I happen to be good at many things. I was called "Good at everything" by friends (which I know is hard to believe and who would give me such a title).
My life skills are:
1. I am one helluva a dancer! Dancing since I was 5 and won a dance contest. I do mostly hip-hop dancing.
2. I consider myself being a good hairstylist and a make-up artist. I have been practicing since the age of 10.
3. I'm a good drawer and painter. I stopped because I got lazy.Poor excuse...I know.
4. I have a great eye when it comes to fashion. Im very particular about details on everything down to blouses, shirts, pants, accessories, etc. If I had all the money in the world I would be dressed in LV all day..everyday. One day I want to fullfill that dream of becoming a fashion designer like Chanel, Gucci, Elie Saab whom I adore.
5. Playing the piano (I'm not all that good but I'm perfecting my skills. Level 3 I'd say)
6. I had done a photoshoot with a friend. I was the photographer, hairstylist, makeup artist, and wardrobe stylist. I haven't even started on the photoshop yet since it takes a really long time to photoshop. I am a perfectionist so it takes me time to visualize and get certain details correct or the way I want it to look.
7. I can cook but I'm no Martha Stewart. When I'm not a lazy ass, I cook pretty well. I want to start a Julia Child session just like Julie & Julia. (Watch the movie; it inspired me to write this post)
8. I wanted to be a movie actress as a child but never really got into it because...I guess I'm skeptical and scared to even pursue it. Maybe I should start now and be fearless. Growing up, people say I should be an actress or comedian because I have great facial expressions, impersonations, and made people laugh. When someone would say that, in my head its a "YES I should" but wouldn't know how to pursue it.
Everything that I have described are my skills and life aspirations. I don't know where or how to start pursuing them since I get discouraged by people's opinions and feel unworthy to even try.
But that all changes now.Its 2010 and I'm planning to take over the world by storm! If I don't start now, when will I ever start.
Words of wisdom: "Instead of giving myself reasons why I can't, I give myself reasons why I can."
Start a new.Everyday is a new beginning.
I welcome 2010 and will be a memorable one.
