Okay, so the skill that I found surprisingly easy to master was video editing. It all started about a year ago when I was chosen to be a member of the public relations team for my school's music festival. As someone who doesn't really have artistic ability, I thought it would be very hard for me to master video editing. But it turns out it only took me less than a month to really deepen my understanding of video editing. During that specific month, I focused on what would be the best type of software to use for my video editing for this event and when to time everything. I really got into more details about video editing, and I think the main reason I found it so easy is that I was pushed by the situation, which motivated me to master this new skill. So I think the main reason is that I was compelled to, and I feel very happy because there is finally something other than the main tasks I had to do. I see it as a fresh new start for me.

Okay, so the skill that I found surprisingly quite easy to master was video editing. It all started about a year ago when I was chosen to be a member of, one of the members of the public relations team for my school’s music festival. So as someone who don’t really have an artistic ability, I thought it would be very hard for me to really master video editing. But it turns out it only took me less than a month to really get deep on my understanding for video editing. So for that specific month, I really started to focus more on what will be the most perfect type to use for my video editing for this specific type of event and when was the timing and yeah basically I really get into no more details about video editing and I think the main reason why I found it so easy is because I was forced by the situation which pushed me to really master this new ability that I should try. So I think the main reason is because well I was forced to and I think I just feel very happy happy because there is finally something other than the main things that I should do. So I think it’s just a fresh new start for me.
