Alright, so by the end of the semester I will have seen 36 movies because I am required to. Thats right, 36 movies because my learn'n depends on it...
AWESOME!
This also begs to question why I have five movies rented out from Pleasant Street in my room, especially since I just returned three the other day...
I have a splitting headache, so my eyes feel like they are in a very violent mosh at the moment, they weep and cry out for mercy, but the band just wont stop and a 500 pound man in big black boots just rammed his way into the pit.
One hour remaining of my sentence as ASH monitor, then freedom will be mine once more, glorious freedom to turn my lights down low and pretend the contrast of life was lower so the glare wouldn't kill me so much.
I sent my body a memo on the requests made regarding no more headaches, or really, pain in general.
Postering for the Zombie effects workshop will be going up in another day or so, and I should really look into making sure we have everything ready, I only just remembered the need for fake-blood and ways to keep the meeting space clean. I should also talk with Ren some more on what I should look into securing for the event, and perhaps have her brainstorm with Andrew, the other signers, and myself on what the next event should be. It's awesome to have people around that know awesome things, and don't mind spreading the joy around.
Oh, and I need to consider the next movie for Saturdays Excalibur screening, Wallace and Gromit went over really well, and everyone seemed to enjoy the hell out of George Lucas in Love, Andrew has himself a mighty collection.
The entire left most wall of the lab is seated with Animation 1 students, and I keep getting to help them out with questions and problems, which is making me feel rather good.
In more exciting news that really isn't very exciting for anyone but me and should just be skipped like the rest of this irrelevant text in favor of more interesting updates on your friends page, me and Andrew are now officially Ben's Division III post crew, we get to do all the fancy post tricks to make his Div III work and look pretty. More fun is that we get to help with the presentation of the thing, which has been bringing up some fun ideas on how to turn this into a awesome Div III.
In an effort to appease those who are angered by long posts devoid of LJ cuts, I shall now focus my head pain into another project besides wasting space on the internets.
