As I look back on my first year as Director, I am more in awe of the men and women at CIA than ever before.
When I went to Real Madrid, I was only 18 or 19 years old. It was my first year as a professional footballer. I was very young.
I started doing stand-up at the age of 20. This was back in 1976, around the time (coincidence?) that the first comedy clubs were starting. The young comedians of today gasp when I tell them how many shows I did that first year: 500. Five nights a week.
Finishing on the podium in my first year, I never expected that. It just fell into place.
I'm by no means an expert at coaching high school football. I'm doing the best I can in Year 1. But I've already learned a lot of lessons and I imagine I'll keep learning them.
My first year in Munich was definitely not easy.
My first year with Gothenburg was the most carefree because I was playing on a middle-of-the-table team in Sweden. It was a lot less of the global attention.
No one expected a first year engineering student to build the perfect bridge.
My first year on 'SNL', I made $90,000 dollars.
In my first year at drama school, I did this kids' show called 'Let's See.'
As I walked up the imposing steps of the Royal Academy, I came fact to face with Alwen Hughes. She looked just as stunning as she had done in my first year at art school.
My rookie year was huge for me as far as the learning curve, especially those last three games.
I don't really think I got the full high school experience, only because when I got to high school for the first year, it was grades 9-10. We didn't have older grades. But besides that, it was normal. It was a regular public school. We didn't have much going on. It wasn't too crazy.
I am a teacher, and I am proud of it. At Cornell University I have taught primarily undergraduates, and indeed almost every year since 1966 have taught first-year general chemistry.
Very intense first summer out, to be 18 years old and never having gone on a date, never having smoked a cigarette, never had a drink, even a sip of beer, never kissed a girl, all of those things. It made for a fairly intense first year out.
I didn't expect people would embrace 'Ang Probinsyano' the way they did during its first year.
Playing in sold out arenas several nights a week is something I have never experience before. I want to experience that. I want to experience that in my first year and build on that.
If I could go back to my first year of acting school, I'd probably say: 'Relax. Stop taking yourself so seriously.'
I had a great first year and Mr. MacDonald was my biggest supporter. He gave me the encouragement I needed that first year to get my career started on a positive note.
In just a few minutes, my son will have completed his first trip around the sun.
I am a law student in my first year at the law, and there are many moments when I am simply a mess.
I played a scene at the end of my first year, and that's how I was discovered.
It is difficult for every manager, I think, in the first year.
I am very happy and satisfied with my first year in Italy.
There is no manual on how to run a global city like London. But I'm hugely proud of what we've been able to achieve in just the first year.
