Hi everyone reading (if anyone), from this point onward I will be documenting my journey towards the master level in Chess (FIDE rating of 2200). I'm currently 19 years old and have been hovering around the FIDE 1900 mark for three years (my initial FIDE rating was 1893), it's actually been four years but I completely stopped playing competitive Chess for a year so I'm taking one off :). I am currently during my gap year before I go to university in the United States. Due to the excess free time that has suddenly been thrown onto my lap, I made it my goal this year to reach a FIDE rating of 2100 by the time i'm 20 (March 2018) and perhaps a rating of 2200 FIDE by the time I turn 21. (March 2019). I hope to achieve the FM title by the time I finish university which would be around the year 2021. My ultimate goal would probably be the International Master title, I would go for the GM title but then I wouldn't want to compromise my real aspiration which is to work in the film industry! I plan to post analysis of games on this blog as well as talking about my experiences along the way; this is of course to motivate me as I know this journey will be very tough and I will experience a lot of setbacks. I hope anyone who follows this will find the documentation of my journey to be insightful and inspirational. Here's to all of us!
