There Was a Time...

Everyone get the Awards Fever out of their systems?

All's I'm gonna say is that Crash oughtn'ta won Best Picture coz it's a pile o' crap.

My office award ceremony went off smoothly. People fell for the videos I shot. I won "EMPLOYEE OF THE YEAR" and got a nice piece of cardboard for my efforts. And now I'm back to fading in the background.

Honestly, there were some things I witnessed during the office award ceremony that really highlighted the fact that I can't just coast by forever at this place. I mean, I CAN and that's the problem. I could easily lose a lot of time collecting paychecks and not making any progress with my vocational goals. Not saying I need to quit my job soon. I just have to get busier writing more. Finishing more. Sending my work out. Getting my work seen/read. It's a fucking war.

I'm in my 30s now, and I feel like I wasted half my 20s with some stupid bullshit. I'm not going to be one of those people that just bitches about their job. The future is mine to lose. I've got no excuses.
