Before I came here for anime music videos, but after many trials and tribulations in real life, I put the amvs down and continued with my life. But, since I found a caring person to be with me, my love Carina Bledsoe, I picked up on all the things I have forgotten. When I was going through my trials in life, I was strictly work. I have a really hardworking work ethic, and I get that from my father. So when I get down, lonely, and all the negative things in life smack me across my face, I work. I started working so hard, I forgot all about my friends. Seriously, I went half a year without communicating with any of my old acquaintences. Lately, I've been seeing them more. There's a story behind how I came back to my old selfless ways, non-greedy ways.
I'm the General Manager for MBI:Video Hut at Cliffdale Plaza, in fayetteville, NC. I've been GM for more than a year now, and one day I hired this beautiful African Goddess...yep, my current girlfriend, Carina. We started getting closer and closer, and because we knew there was going to be internal conflicts in store, we agreed to have her leave, and pay attention to her college; which she's graduating with her bachelors in Mass Communication, Journalism in a few days. But, since she quit, we got real close. Of course we had our bad times, but I just had to take the firing squad many of those times. Self sacrifice is what women want sometimes, I don't mind doing that. I lose nothing in the end, I only gain more trust. That's what relationships run on, is trust.
But, Carina is an Otaku also, and she reintroduced me into amvs again. I started tinkering with Adobe Premiere more and more by the weeks, and after Neko Convention in Hampton VA, last month. I realized...I'm damn good in amv creation compared to many of the participants of the AMV contests. If they can do it, then I know I can. So I started making AMVs again. I even improved greatly on all my amvs! I also learned a great secret tactic in the creation process too. Instead of ripping DVDs, I just rip trailer disks. Why get many clips from one anime, when I can get clips from hundreds of anime! Haha!
Anyway, all is good in my life right now. I have a good staff at work, and my store is doing great. My personal life has gone way up because Carina and I get closer every day. I admit I suck at calling anybody, so there are those times she gets angry at me for not calling. That's understanding though. Somehow, she's become tolerant of it...dunno if that's a good thing.
If by that rare chance you read my profile before, it was depressing, gloomy, homicidal, and insane. I just wanted the world to end. But now, I'm cool, no arguments or conflicts. It's to my future from here. I'm also going to start creating amvs more and more now, I'm even going to submit them to this site for everyone to view. I hope I get some victories in contests too. Even though, it's not what I'm doing this for, it'll be nice to know my work is loved.
