Fighting for Passion

Recently, my lecturer asked me to help out in shooting videos for an event in Taylor's University. I liked this job and I was free, so I went to the meeting today! I met a few videographers that one of them just totally inspired me because he is already living his dreams even before he graduate!

He is in his final year in Communication and Media Management, and he likes videos a lot. Since young he had the passion in producing videos and recently he just setup his own photography and videography company which produces videos and photo albums for clients! He even said he did not had the money to go overseas to study, but he tried applying for scholarships in film-making schools abroad. Just recently, one of the schools liked his video and he got offered full scholarship to join a film-making school in US!

Before this, I thought I will not get a chance to go overseas to study film-making because I will not have the money. However, now it really made me think that there is so much more to expect for my future! Next, I saw this eye-opening video that also encouraged me to follow this path. I felt that there are also people who are interested in film like me, that I'm not alone and it is possible for me to achieve my dreams! :D

I was actually worried that I might not have stable income in this industry, especially in Malaysia. Some people discouraged me from doing Mass Communication or Film-making, and even looked down at me because a lot of people do not get good money and future out of it. So I'm actually still worried about it, but at least today it really gave me a glimpse of hope that I can still believe in passion. 

Thank you Lord for this wonderful Wednesday. Goodnight. :)

Bernard is back! :D

It's been a while since I blogged here. This few months has been uneasy for me.  I have been into various new situations and things in university, church and everywhere else. Besides, I was worried about the expectations that are set upon me by others because I do not think I am capable enough to achieve them. I'm just too use to stay within my comfort zone. However, with lots of help and encouragement from a few church friends and parents, I took up the challenge and I'm finally back on track! BERNARD IS BACK! :D

I was more adventurous when I was in high school, because when I enter college, I just cared too much about what others might think of me. After thinking about it, it will be really a waste if I am held back in pursuing my dreams and being who I am just because I want to fit in or be someone ideal in people's eyes. HELL NO! From now on, I'm going to follow my heart and live my life to the fullest according to His will! :D

I just realized that I think one of the ways to really keep myself mentally healthy is to just blog about things happening around me because that allows me to just reflect on it. I will try to blog more often from now on! (but bear with me, cause I tend to forgot about this when I am disorganized. xD) Let's see how long I will be active again this time :P

Oh before I end this post, just want to share something that I'm very proud and happy of!
I just finished a 10km run at KL Road Race 2013 with 53:46 minutes! :D

I wasn't prepared enough for this run and I am really glad that I still get this results. ;)

Here's another medal to be added to my desk!

Took this picture from the Best of Running Facebook group.
I looked kinda handsome here don't I? hahaha
I can't stop looking at this picture when I saw it!
