I've been in love with making videos for ever now, so much so that I for Christmas last year, I asked for a new video-editing program: Sony Vegas Movie Studio. And because my parents adore me as their oldest child and only daughter, they bought it for me. I feel in love with all the different effects the program could use to manipulate the clips, but the general program was confusing to use - unbelievably more than Windows Movie Maker. So, what did I do? I put the disk back in the box and didn't use it for months. Now, almost a year later, I've finally decided that I better use the damn thing before something bad happens. Plus, with my new computer, I have more memory and a faster operating system - both prime necessities for running this program. Now, I still don't use Vegas for the major creation of the video - it's still to complicated for me - so instead, I create the entire video in WMM and then import it into Vegas and add the effects! I know I'm a friggin' genius. I think so too.
And the reason for this rant...
I've got 4 new Smallville videos and one new Supernatural/Gilmore Girls video up on YouTube...
Dean and Lorelai: Sober
Click to view
Summary: This is a remake of my video "Lorelai and Dean Interlude" about Lorelai Gilmore and Dean Winchester. This begins with Lorelai receiving a phone call from Rory that Dean and Sam were in a car accident and she's at the hospital. Lorelai goes to see her daughter and the boys and learns that Dean is in a coma. Seeing Dean, Lorelai flashes back to how she met him and their brief relationship. [Flashback] Dean and Sam arrive in Stars Hollow, Connecticut and stay at the Dragonfly Inn, where they meet Lorelai. Dean is immediately enamoured with her and she teases him. Then a few days later, Dean is at the bar and sees Lorelai, who is surprised to see him, sing karaoke. The next time he sees her, Dean asks Lorelai on a date and she agrees to go. Their date is a drive-in showing of Funny Face and Lorelai is in a state of shock that Dean brought her to her favorite movie. [End Flashback] Lorelai gets another call from Rory - Dean's awake. Lorelai goes to the hospital but when she sees him awake, she panics and leaves, while he chases after her. Again, Lorelai remembers moments from their short affair and both she and Dean recall their first and only fight. [Flashback] Dean accuses Lorelai of not being entirely committed to the relationship to which she replies by telling him being ridiculous and asks what exactly he wants from her. He tells her that she should know and walks away, leaving her call after him. [End Flashback] Dean arrives at Lorelai's and she apologizes, but they are left at an impasse.

On a less than happy note although entirely amusing this morning marked the second morning in which I had to miss my first class due to extenuating circumstances and my sheer blondeness.
Tuesday morning:
Alarm goes off at 6:45 (so that I can get up at 7:00 and leave at 7:40 for an 8:00am class.)
I hit the snooze button.
I wake up at 8:16, completely unaware that anything was amiss.
I get ready not quickly mind you.
I leave at 8:40 still unaware of my mistake.
I get halfway to my class before I go, "Wait, what time does my class start?"
It is now nearly 9:00, an hour after my class began.
I go back to my dorm room and my roommate laughs at me well deserved laughter too.
Wednesday this morning:
Alarm goes off at 8:45 (so I can get up at 9:00 and leave at 9:40 for a 10:00am class.)
I hit the snooze button.
I get up at 9:10, on time today.
I get dressed and put in my contacts.
I grab my toothbrush and head to the bathroom.
I brush my teeth.
I walk back to the room to put my toothbrush away.
The door won't open.
The words "Oh, God no" and "Oh, fuck" come out of my mouth.
I've locked myself out.
I can do nothing but sit on the ground by the door and wait for my roommate to return from her class.
Half an hour of pulling at my split ends.
My roommate returns and sees my on the floor.
She laughs at me well deserved laughter too.
I can only hope for tomorrow.
