Yes. Yes it is. And I’ve quickly come to realize that I haven’t posted for the last 67 days because it just didn’t seem real.
I can’t exactly pinpoint why… but I guess I had a weird superstition that if I posted something it would all vanish or something.
But hey, I’m sitting in an editing suite right now at Rogers, staring at video footage of the first episode of Start Something Big! and can no longer deny that this is happening.
We’ve done 4 shoots over the last few weeks, and 3 exclusively for the web. Oh and we’ll be launching the new and improved site soon!! So pumped for that!
It’s been an interesting balance over the last two months… and there have been tons of changes. For one- I moved: AGAIN! I’ve moved like 4 times over the last 5 months, and and got a new job. It’s definitely been challenging…but the truth is I don’t think I could have it any other way.
As ‘they’ say, “your pain pushes you until your vision pulls you.”
It makes sense to me! When you have a vision or a goal that you’re inspired by, it doesn’t matter what comes up, you’ll get er done!
Anyways, time to get back to transcribing and writing down time-code for our editor. Fun timessss lol.
Hi, my name's Gwen and I've committed to taking action to make my dream a reality.
I'm working towards creating and hosting a hit show on national television that inspires teens to live their dreams.
See... now you understand why the blog is called 'I realize I'm delusional...'
