I dreamed a dream.

Long ago at the young age of sixteen, I sat down one day with a course guide to a college called West Notts. After scanning over pages of courses and circling ones over others, I picked a course. I decided I wanted to be a film maker.

   For two years I studied media and the moving image learning all about film and TV and the various content that was used within these mediums. Eventually it was time for college too end and so from here I went on to University where I studied film and moving image production at the Northern Film School, Leeds Met which included moving to Leeds.

   I arrived and began creating a new life for myself, building friendships and bonds with people from across the country. Being at University gave me chances to see the world, have amazing experiences and meet a bunch of people I would never be without. However once again comes the time to move on but this time there is a big question I have to ask myself.


"What happens now?"

   My name is Dan. I'm 20 years old and this year, I will be leaving university. Like many other people I feel there seems to be nothing beyond finishing uni except a big black hole of nothingness. Unlike when making decisions before, there seems to be no guidelines when considering what to do next. The big bad world is just a few months away and to be honest I am terrified. 

   I have decided to begin this blog to document the real beginning of my life. My life in the big bad world.


2011 will certainly be an interesting year.
