Ever since I was a child, I have always wanted to be the director of my own film. It sounds weird, it is not exactly something that kids look forward to being when they grow up. When I was young, my sister, my cousin, and I developed this game. It had so many aspects in it and influences from various films. These films ranged from the Lord of the Rings trilogy to the Star Wars Saga. It was quite epic. It was a game based on a story and a made up world. We continued to build the story until we outgrew it.

Since that time, I always thought of different stories in my head. Stories that could possibly become a film. Finally, I decided maybe I should jot some of my thoughts down. I have been working on one story in particular for quite some time. Not a lot of people know about it and it is still in the works.

Going into college I considered studying film, yet it is an extremely difficult industry. I decided to do something a bit more feasible. I decided to pursue business, accounting in particular. I enjoy it, I really do, and recently I got a job offer for a summer internship. I'm doing well actually.

The thing is, I never stopped thinking and making stories. It is still in the works and I know it has a lot of potential. I have been taking film classes in my spare time. In order to become a CPA you need 30 extra credits. I have been making up those credits with some film classes. It has continued to interest me. Though it is highly unlikely, it is not impossible.

My stories have been my passion. Something I have been proud of. These stories are stories that I have only been able to share with close friends and family.

When they are finally developed and finished, perhaps I will be able to share my stories to the world on a big screen.
