From a young age I was always involved in social activities especially of the physical type. Individually or in a team environment my energy levels never ran out. Early mornings were never a drag for me. The constant vibes of music and jingles were personifed in my childhood home with innocent laughter. Art or anything of a creative nature soon discovered my body and mind as a source of rejuvenation and time to breathe and so, an early yet unrealised significant interest was born.

 

A new age and a new home invited my teenage youth as my energy was still evident. Negating with my time of music & sports I lusted for a good old drift away from reality entrusted by novels of the fantasy Genre.

As a kid I was always into the latest collections: The Hobbit, Goosebumps, Rhoald Dahl, Paul Jennings, Tim Winton & John Marsden to name some of Significance. As interests expanded so did my reading. I was huge on the 90's music scene as it encouraged my nature but still had a lot of old rock resonating in my humble home walls. I had the 'phase' period, as rap & hip-hop drew me in, my application of life through pen grew into more serious topics and expression. Lyrics and poems were consistently scraped and splattered on anything at any time. I was a huge romantic yet when the provoking set me off, an emotional angry embolishment consumed me. My latter school and home years became dark, confused and like one exaggerated cycle. Motivation and concentration lacked and the Party scene hit me early as I turned legal in my final year. The Heavy Metal Scene that I had not explored yet soon became appreciated. I Still had a temper, but now I had some music to vent out on.

 

Adulthood has encouraged me to explore options whether it be for work or further improvement in knowledge, some may say I have no evidence of success. More than happy to admit my lack of confidence in myself and the completion of tasks i aim for, it has been 1 year nigh 10 years since my official welcome into the 'real world'.

I have travelled, became a wild embodiment of my own taste & variety within the party scene and have more than less self taught myself to enjoy how I live.

Animals, Nature, Cooking and a strum on the guitar & Indie/Folk are on consistent playlist, as social team activities help derive balance in my suddenly more settled life I will every now & then still have an urge for something more comical, even evil concepts seep from my mind as nothing from my adolescent tenure has been lost to me....but after enduring many jobs and with other career attempts on-hold I  am finally confident to say this is it. I finally have Art and creativity again in the terms I want and at the right time in my life.

And so......My success has become more internal just recently. I have endured alot, explored alot and achieved alot. I actually become overwhelmed how I should think I have not succeeded. This slight contrusion of this personal issue in confidence is now diagnosed on not one single interest.

It is time; time to Commit myself completely to this part of me that has always been there but never given the appropriate effort or desire.
