Surrounded by the grim possibilities of my inevitable downfall, I held on to the next thing I could find to make sure I didn't fall face first. With a fragile state of mind, I found myself at the mercy of others. Gone were the days where I could proudly say that independence was my forte. A leech, a measly parasite was what I was turning into. My bliss was depended on the decisions that were finalised by others. Funny thing is that I was content with the way I turned out to be up til this very moment, but the other thing that was bringing me down was myself (if that made any sense)

 I've always had myself to depend on to pave my destiny, but the more I trot on, the more I see my future being cupped by hands that are not my own and being handed to me. Scarily comfortable at where I am right now, I succumb, but hastily. I grow weary and all I ever want to be is steady on my own two feet. I don't mean to sound ungrateful, but I would love to show that I'm still strong on my own. 

 The wildfire that was raging uncontrollably within me was extinguished by the love and care of others. Individually, I didn't want to be tamed. As a team player, I'm dishing out countless amounts of assists like any other NBA point guard could ever match up to. I'm glad my team is leading, but my individual stats are dwindling. I chose to silence the ego in me with the bliss on the expressions of others, and that's all I know for now.

 Truly I am grateful for the friends that have stuck with me throughout the year. Friends specifically being the guys from D.R.I.F.T. Productions. I have found a newly lit passion in the art of videography. I'm always eager to expand my skills and I'm not one to stay stagnant with an ability. I'm always up for upgrading or evolving my God-given talents. 

 (Yes this is one of those sappy "Thank you" posts and I'm not ashamed of it.)

It has truly been amazing seeing this guy grow in this year alone. Driven by the never ending passion to always be the best, I find myself pacing alongside him to match his ambition and always falling short. I've always respected him because he'll never have second thoughts about helping other people. Countless amount of times he pushed me up further than I deserved to be, and he still does it without ever doubting me. I always find it an honour whenever he asks me to help out with his videos and the both of us will always find ways to give his video a more edgier look. I love how he allows me to showcase my camera skills on his videos because of its vast exposure to the social media platform.

If every idea he came up with came with a dollar, this guy would be a millionaire. I am usually left in awe after this guy lays down an idea. I always end up thinking "How did he come up with this?" or "Why didnt I think of that?" because he is THAT creative! God is fair, and being dyslexic didn't slow him down from being the most colorful-minded individual there is out there. Always with a smile, despite love issues, this guy will brighten anybody's day. Special effects and editing is what he does best, and I'm truly grateful that we have him on our team. He is also slowly dipping his toes into the world of a DJ, and I'm glad that he has agreed on letting me be his Hype Man.

What can I say, we both malay, and he brings out the mat in me (in every positive manner possible) Musically inclined in almost every genre, this guy has produced numerous songs for our team, and each song is as catchy as the previous one (or even better). He has gotta be the humblest person I've every met. Alot of times I see that he doesnt get the recognition that he deserves, I would always try to tell people that he was the one who did the "Hail remix" because who wouldnt wanna show him off am I right? Truly, I am blessed that he has helped me produced alot of songs and this guy will never let up even when things seem dim.

I've known this guy this longest in the group. He is and forever will be the energizer bunny in the group. He is always up for a good time. Musically inclined, naturally comical, and usually stubborn, but you gotta love him nonetheless. He has "dug his own grave" on numerous occasions but that's all just part of growing up. A positive point to look at is that whenever he fell, me and the rest would have to step up a notch to make sure he doesnt fall any further, and that sort of ignites the "Big Brother" role within us. He has the potential to be the best, and I wouldnt leave his side until he has achieved that mark. 

 These bros have literally pulled me out of the darkness that I was entrapped in, and whenever I find myself falling, they still hold onto me like I would hold onto them. So for that, I owe them my life.
