(Disclaimer: I'm not a fan of RENT.... and real rent)

Here we are, early 2014! Everyone has their resolutions, promising to make this year better than the last. For some people it's the first year of their adult life. 2014 is a daunting year for myself, there is so much I want to achieve for myself, and honestly have no idea how I'm going to do it.

for me it is easy to become overwhelmed with it all. I have a tendency to distance myself from real challenges. Not to say i don't take them on when need be. I know some of my greatest and brightest moments of my life have been when I took on something so hard I thought i would never make it out the other end alive. Though here I am.

LETS BE HONEST FOR A SECOND.

I have been In NC for a few months now, and still do not have the job I thought i would have. I'm at the moment where i literally need to find anything. I've been working for CUTCO the last couple of months barely able to pay rent (direct sales of High Quality Cutlery... if you were wondering). If you know me, you know i'm not a salesman. That's the job I have for now, and I'm doing what I can to make it work. I'm looking to pick up a second job in the mean time while I continue my search for my film gig. It's hard for me to tell people that I'm not doing what I want to be doing. Things haven't really gone as planned.

NEW YEAR... ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.

But as I said, It's a new year. A scary start, but an exciting future. I know I'll be doing what I want to be doing soon enough. I'm just slower off the line. I'm not someone who gives up, not by a long shot. Sometimes I can get really close to quitting, but I always end up putting my big boy pants on and get things done.

I've had people asking me why I left Dubai, when I had so many great opportunities there. My answer is, "No idea, I must be crazy, but it just felt like the right decision for ME!"

I Love where I am, there is no place in my life quite like NC. It's not for everyone, but it's my home. The scene here is so unique... and believe it or not EDM is exceptional here. I have recently attended two events so far. Mat Zo on New Years, and an event called POW WOW. These two events have easily been the best concerts I've been to in years... and from what I've heard from the regulars "These are just the tip of the iceberg!"

(Sorry Bassworx, but you are like a toddler with a toy piano compared to the shows put on here)

WHERE IS THE WORK AT.

With this new EDM crowd, I feel it could be a good fit for where I want my style to go. BILLIONAIRES APPAREL is a very cool company founded here in Charlotte NC. I briefly was able to talk with the owner, and from what I heard matched where I aspire to be. Check out their videos, they're fun and vibrant.

Another group is SUGAR SOCIETY, from what I can tell they are the ring leaders of all EDM events here In NC. They are definitely something I'll be looking into.

Hopefully I can begin doing some promotional videos for some of these people, or possibly take a lesson from a friend and start making my own merch and selling at events!

LETS BRING THIS TO A CLOSE.

Well to bring this to an end... i'll be applying for whatever job I can find for now. Make money, do some odd film jobs, and keep looking for that big break! The Grind baby, it's the American dream!

It's a long year ahead of me and surely for yourself as well. I have a few projects up my sleeve, personal adventures to take. I don't want to give too much away, but they will be very cool and be the foundation to my future work.

Now let me fill out these applications to a few random places, and send you on your way! That is of course if you don't want to comment below and ask me questions. I'm looking for Ideas for things to do creatively. Maybe a picture a day thing? Maybe you know of a job for me? Maybe you just want to talk about stuff?

Interact with me! I'm looking for various ways to connect with you guys! I like to think we are all in this adventure together! If I end up successful, who will i want to share it with? YOU!

ANYWAYS! BYE NOW!
