NOTE: I am not just your average young American dreamer - I am actually a go-getter, because just wishing and hoping alone never satisfies me (plus, it's a waste of time to just wish and hope without motivating yourself). I am a coward, yet I am brave. I am a very shy person, but I am not afraid to say what I want. I know there are people who think I'm "wasting my time" going into acting rather than becoming a fashion designer, anime artist, or whatever. But lemme tell you this - unlike a lot of people in this world - I can actually say I'm doing and going after something that I want rather than what others expect of me. So, in the end, where you meet thousands of people who complain and gripe about how their lives are going or have become, you meet me and you will see that everything I've hoped for has come true so far. And along the road, I've learned a lot of things most people my age don't learn until their either middle-aged or never at all. I believe in taking chances and moving forward. I believe in change although I don't always like it. I am not a role-model to anybody. Nor a mentor or teacher or someone people normally look up to. I am just me, and I will confess: I do consider myself LUCKY!!! I never let anything or anybody stand in my way no matter how insecure I can get or how many good or bad days I may have. Anybody in this world can be anything they want to be - only a few in this world are brave enough or so wrapped up in personal fear to become that anything. Will I become the "anything" I hope to be someday? I'm not sure to tell you the truth. But I can tell you one thing: At least I'm not waiting for miracles to happen. I am MAKING them happen. You can either take my small words of wisdom or laugh at them. Whatever you choose to do - remember this: The only person/thing that can motivate you or stop you is YOU.
FAVORITE Quote(s):
"Nothing in the world can take place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent." -- Calvin Coolidge
"The more you know yourself and what you want, the less you let things upset you." -- Bill Murray as Bob Harris from "Lost In Translation"
"A lot of people are afraid to say what they want. That's why they don't get what they want." -- Madonna
"I would say stop worrying, and keep working on yourself. And when people ask me How do I become an actor? How do I succeed? I just say "theres no secret, just keep knowing yourself." You can apply that to any undertaking in life: the first thing you have to do is know yourself. Because without it you dont have your material, youre just making shit up." -- Jane Lynch
I LOVE this pic too much!!!!

I LOOOOOOVE HELLO KITTY!!!!
