Focus on That Dream

I have been in Berlin for nearly a month now and it is hard to believe that I have come all this way. Granted for some, this is no big deal. But, coming from a strict home where I was not allowed to even join girl scouts, this is a great accomplishment. It has always been a dream of mine to come to explore a part of Europe especially visit the UK. (Which I did ^.^)

Of course this brings me to the discussion of dreams and goals. As I explained in an earlier blog about I have trouble focusing due to my ADHD, I sometimes have trouble sticking my goals/dreams. It is very difficult when there are sooo many things that interest a person. By trying to do everything, I accomplish nothing.

I know for sure I want to do a career in counseling/journalism. So far, in school, in order to stay more focus to my goal I decided to only stick with my media classes.  I translated my first episode for SSEXBOXX and I am contacting the crew around Berlin to see if I can  help them in anyways I can.


 Luckily my loved ones have been more than supportive of me. They help me stay focus because sometimes I toy with other career options such as: Nursing, Teaching, Academic Counseling, and/or Social Work. They remind me what my original goal is.

Even if mind does stray, I know that all of these careers involves being around people. Nothing brings me greater joy then to be as helpful as I can.

Furthermore, I love being around areas that inspire me to just write or create something.

It's so hard though to concentrate at times when there are sooo many possibilities and so many roads to take.

I least I did the first step and started setting up a website.

Wickedarling.com 

It is not completely set up yet. But, it's the first step to progress.

Introduction: My little Prologue

I guess like every story, an introduction can come in handy. It is also the first step in getting comfortable with new world that is about to unfold before the very eyes of the reader.

I guess I shall introduce myself in this first post. My name is Daisy J Knight. Or, my friends either call me Dizzy Night or simply Dais.  Call me whatever you like really, I love having many nicknames.

I started this blog as a writing tool exercise. The thing is, I lack focus. I can concentrate to save my life sometimes. Could it be the ADHD or me? I don't know...

The point is I am almost about to turn 24 years old, about to graduate the University of California in Berkeley, and I feel like I am still a child stuck in this mature body.  Plus, I'm Berlin, Germany until May. Guess what!? I DON'T KNOW ANY GERMAN!

                               Life is just one great adventure I suppose....

                                              ....

Just when I thought I had things figured out, the economy goes down and there is so much competition for work. It leaves me scared and wondering what will happen to me.

I know I sound like a whinny child but can one blame me for being so concerned?

Heck, I'm not even sure if I will go to graduate school or not. 

That is not to say I do not have hope.

Things that do interest me are this:

• Counseling: I love listening to people and understanding them
• Social Work
• Performing
• Creative Writing
• Journalism 
• Teaching

Overall, my big dream in life is  to the ultimate adventure. That and  to just make people smile and make life easier for others.

I just need to figure things out.
