Wa-wa-what just happened?
I always say to mself that, I must post/write more and more regularly on this darn thing. Actions do speak louder than words... or at least it gets more accomplished.
So I just got off a phone interview with a pretty big and reputable name (production/entertainment company) and I thought I did okay, but I found myself repeating, er, myself. There was one question specifically the person asked and I feel my response was completely, undeniably God-awful. "What would you say is your biggest accomplishment up to date?" she asked... and instead of mentioning my PSA I shot for the UN, I went onto some drivel of being proud of "not giving up" and "being a good person [with respects of being "in" the industry]" and other flowery, poppy-cock nonsense! I could've still have gotten that more humanistic aspect by mentioning my feeling that I could say or act like I could "teach" (through Bellis or other avenues) and how that is sort of proud thing for me... Or going back to the 'merit'-route, I could've mentioned being on the Agency at school, a select group of students working with real clients and being the first film student to be on staff of this group... So there were other tangible accomplishments that I could've spouted out to her, but no, my brain decided to fart instead.
F!@*&^%$(!#*$&$(*W$@~~~!! I can't get over it now. At first I did well, I was eloquent and to the point, but then I just started getting ahead of myself... and I started to get general and uninteresting. Balls. Anyways, we'll see. No need to dwell on it now (or at least let you know that I'm still mulling over it by continuing to write about it).
I am now a week over the half-way point of my term at school. And what have I done this term? It doesn't really feel like much. I need to change that. I mean I have been busy, my days fill up like no other and I have done projects and such already...but nothing for "myself" really... I should do some hardcore prep for myself for my graduating reel. I should be writing for myself more, but my internship burns me out of everything literary that I don't have the motivation (bold-face EXCUSE). So, these last 6 weeks left in the term... it's all about progress folks. And it's going to be about me (sorry others). No lets see if I know how to do that.
