I've had a lot of luck. If I didn't I'd be washing bottles in Russia.
It's a completely different situation right now because last year it was the time that nobody expected anything from me anything -- I had nothing to lose, basically I was starting from zero. And now I'm back in Top 5. And for me it's a different stage.
I've lived my life the way I wanted to, whether scaling the mountains, partying long into the night or having fun playing soccer.
Unfortunately, my career, it's a little roller-coaster, ... So I need to get used to it. That's how I am.
