o hey lj,
so mini update before a class once again. Classes are going well but academia in general - readings, etc, are a little hard to do right now because I don't really have much time. I could have the time, but because i'm doing extra curricular stuff it's taking up my time.
Kate, Dan and I are shooting #Cubicle this Friday-Sunday so a lot of the past couple of days has been spent organising and producing, etc, etc. I'm feeling good about it. As long as I don't try and rush things, etc, because I'm afraid about time being used up, etc, then we should be fine.
Really, I should be sending a mass email out to the cast right now but I'm procrastinating hardcore.
Back to the whole academia ignoring thing: I understand that I should be doing the readings, etc, but I'm finding that I'm actually keeping up with the classes in terms of content and managing to take part in discussions. I think this is one of the main reasons why I'm not feeling so het up about the fact that I'm now behind, but I'm not entirely sure. It's a little scary nonetheless that I'm feeling okay about it because usually I would be freaking out. Maybe now I've finally reached the point where I know these things are not life and death and will not really determine the rest of my life.
Tonight I'm going to try and get some academia work done but I'm torn between production stuff and my writing portfolio. I need to get on that shit. I have a screenplay I'm going to submit - probably the one we're shooting from this weekend, but otherwise it's just a bunch of poetry and fiction I need to go through and edit.
Oh, too much going on, too little brainpower.
In other news - I watched the Heroes and Fringe Season Premieres these past two days. I'm happyhappyhappy to see intelligent television back on. Next week SGU airs for the first time and I'm thrilled to see where they will take the franchise. I'm hoping for the grittier, sexier SG that the promos tend to promise.
Right, off to sit bored in Astronomy.
