I'm just blown away by the achievement my friend back in elementary/highschool has made.  We aren't close, but we are friends and our parents know each other.

Like wow~ !!! I have a director friend now XD She even won Best Short Film award for Shorts Category, Cinemalaya Philippine Independent Film Festival.

And now this short film is being shown in an arts festival in London.  Wow~ I think it's really quite an achievement. 

This is the official trailer.

But I think I prefer this trailer... um... the not quite official one? I don't know what to call this, but I love it because the scene is breathtaking.

In a way, I'm envious of her because she is doing the thing she really seems to like (and not being a nurse like what most of our highschool batchmates have become which I am one of them... sigh).

If you've read my previous blogs, you might have read something about me mentioning about another elementary/highschool friend who became newscaster on T.V.   The course she took was something she really wanted and it looks like she made quite an achievement too.

It made me wonder what if I really pursued being a writer instead of being a nurse in which I am not even practicing being a nurse after graduating.

I tell people that I have given up on trying to be a professional writer and that I am simply writing as a hobby or for fun, but I guess deep down, I have some frustrations, regret, and bitterness. ^^;; 

In a way, it's my own fault too for not pushing myself and not doing anything to pursue that "dream" and for simply giving up.
