The First Step

Hey everyone! Wow, this is my first post. I'm ecstatic about my new blog! :D
 Blogging is new to me, so bear with me here.
It's always good to try something new, isn't it? I think  this is what my first post will be about, taking the first step!
  I will admit, I don't really like trying new things, but one thing that I have realized this summer, is that, sometimes "new" is the best thing that can happen to you.
 Imagine standing on the threshold of a journey. Just imagine the new experiences lying in wait to be discovered. However, you in turn, feel daunted. Afraid of numerous things you may encounter on this journey. This fear holds you back from exploring whole new worlds, that may be of your interest.
 Now, at the begining of summer, I had made up my mind that I would.not.waste it. I took up a new hobby in June (air gun shooting) and in the end a competition was held, and I shit-you-not, I came FOURTH place, out of 24 contesstants!
My point is, if I hadn't taken the intiative of doing this, I wouldn't even know that I'd be good at it and plus, I now have a new found love for the airgun rifle <3
 At the moment, I've taken an internship at an animation studio- another thing I was skeptical of. I've always been interested in art, but all this new fangled animation equipment, I thought, was just overshadowing the good old traditional media (eg. pencils and paper). But now that I've used a drawing tablet and discovered the wonderful worlds of Photoshop, Maya and ZBrush, I can't get enough of them!
I haven't regretted taking the first steps into any of these journeys and I encourage you all to try new things. Sure it stings a bit, at first,and you may never want to do that particular thing again, but you have to atleast TRY it. How do you know you won't like it, until and unless you won't try it? (Gosh, I'm sounding like those parents who say all this to convince their children to eat a particular dish :p )
So, do go ahead and take the first step into an amazing journey before yourself.
Until tomorrow :D
