never give up/awesome moment

[seanto]

Today was the opening of my universities summer show in which there was awards given out. I was given student of the year for the my year group of my course( I study film). I cant believe it, like literally i cant. I truely thought it was going to go to someone else in my year when my tutor was stood on the stage. As my prize they gave me a gift voucher that i can spend in like 50 different shops. I think im going to spend it on Amazon ether on books or a kpop cd.

Though yeah I posting this as I want to hopefully inspire people to carry on with the things they love even when it gets hard. During the second half of my year I want on three residential's to make films and somehow managed to got ill on all three of them. Then on deadline week I ended up spending four hours in A&E due to no fault of my own luckily in the end for nothing to serious. I was also hypersensitive to my own skin on the day I had to hand in all my work. Though I tried not to let any of it get in the way of my film degree as I just wanted to carry on doing the things I love regardless of what the situation might be. I did rest here and there but I tried not to do it often as I felt I did it at every hurdle that things just wouldn't get done. I cared far too much about my work and as a result I ended up being student of the year for my year group of my course. So yeah just thought i would share this happy moment with you peeps as i try and wrap my head round it all.

I feel elated for you. Congratulations on your award, enjoy your voucher and a fantastic well done for sticking in there. Brilliant.

[seanto in reply to smithfield]

Thank you so much Smithfield. I'm glad your happy for me, I still cant quite it believe that i'm student of the year for my course. My health has really tried and tested me this year and I feel proud of what I have been able to do. I cant wait for next year to make even more films. Once again thanks, im currently looking at all the different books I could get, too many interesting ones.

[smithfield in reply to seanto]

You deserve to be proud of yourself. That is the problem with books to much choice. But browsing is good.

Enjoy.

Best wishes Smithfield

Well done you!!! My middle son is doing a degree in film and media studies - next year he's working on all film production modules - what a great thing to study! You must be very proud indeed and I'm certain it's well deserved.

Thank you for sharing. I believe you are right in continuing to do things you love. I go for short bike rides still because I love it and not ready to give it up. Thank you.
