The Scary Scary Future
It can't be just me that's scared by the future right? I'm constantly thinking about when i'm older and what job I'll have or where I'll live and what my new day-to-day plans will be. I'm so excited to find out all about future Charis and what her life will be like, but I'm also quite scared.
What if it's not what I want, what if I'm not happy or I just settled in a job or relationship where I'm not happy? (I don't see myself settling for something where I'm not happy, but you never know)
Will I still be obsessed with social media? Will I have made more short films? Will I have finally created a photography portfolio??? So many questions, but no answers.
I'm a great planner, I love to plan things, especially unrealistic things. I love to dream up silly ways to be discovered and become successful. But I know that I won't just be walking down the street and someone will shout and offer me my dream job, I know that. I just go day by day and do little things, super small things and hope that one day all of the little things come together to create some huge amazing thing. I don't know what this 'thing' will be and I'm not sure what I would want it to be. I just keep going day by day and hope that one day I will have this all figured out.
So, I said I do little things, I mean things like uploading all my short films onto YouTube so it's easier to show my showreel (YouTube/Showreel) It terrifies me to do this but I did it, quite literally 10 minutes ago and it's scary but hopefully it will be worth it one day. It's not a big deal and as much as I post and share things online, it still kinda scares me a bit. (First Film) (Second Film) (Third Film) The main reason I make YouTube videos apart from it being super fun, is to try and improve my presentation techniques and to get more comfortable talking to cameras. It sounds silly but I think it's working.

Nice post! I can totally understand what you're trying to say! I think everyone's scared about the future.... at least a little. :)

I think about the future a lot too, and try to plan everything out. I started YouTube to work on being more confident and outgoing. I hope I can make short films but for right now I just do vlogs.
