(no subject)
At this point I've stopped marveling at how quickly this semester - and senior year - and college - are all slipping away from me. Even that has passed me by. After tomorrow there will be 2 weeks left of classes. 2 WEEKS! It is insane. I still need to write 35 pages of my screenplay, write 3 more acts (and basically rewrite the first 3 acts) of my pilot, write a 10-14 feminist paper, write 2 asian american lit papers, pull together IC scriptwriters in some sort of meaningful way and finish the gerontology institute megaphone project. it will all get done, I am sure, but I'm not sure I will be conscious or coherent at all in the process. I'm also trying to work about 18 hours a week and sometimes I find myself going to bed and still alphabetizing and locking DVD cases in my mind. Hollywood Video is fine...I actually just watched The Queen and it isn't even out until Tuesday...but I probably should have been trying to do some of the million things I just mentioned instead.
Still no word on any of the jobs...I'm trying not to worry about it, as there is still time to be informed (the deadline for the ABC production associates was yesterday, so I'm sure they haven't made calls yet). I just hope I will be informed of something at some point.
The exercise/weight loss thing is going ok. The hardest part continues to be free food. Sometimes people bring donuts into work..and yesterday I had a piece leftover from Josh's birthday cake. But they didn't seem to sabotage anything...I've lost 12 pounds since the post-spring break monstrosity (literally), and with 2 more I would be back down to pre-spring break. I would love to be at high school graduation weight by college graduation, but that would take 13 pounds so unless I go south beach phase 1 and get my body into ketosis (which I don't really want to do), that is pretty unlikely. I think I would be happy with 7 or 8 more pounds...I'm telling myself that I weigh more than I used to because my arms and legs are just so jacked from all the weights I've been lifting. Maybe there's some truth to it? ha ha. Either way I think I am going to get a graduation dress when I am in New York for the Killers concert next weekend so let's hope that goes well.
Meantime, I think the blizzards are over now after Sunday's ridiculousness. I think the northeast wanted to make sure I had a good dose of winter (in mid-April) before I move to the west coast. I. Am moving. To the west coast. In a year if I do the working title program in London, and in July otherwise. Crazy. But I am excited. I've already been sending craigslist postings of (surprisingly reasonable) apartments with pools to Joette, instructing her to apply for LA jobs so we can be roommates. Shopping at the Beverly Center (on credit) and relaxing at the pool on Saturday, beach on Sunday...sounds good to me.
Tonight I'm going to Kilpatrick's for a PRSSA (I think) Make a Wish event...drinking for charity, that is pretty much the best idea EVER.
