The competition continues!
Ah it is time to write again.
So yeah basically everything with Amazon is going fairly well so far, I want to send a big large thank you to everyone who has so far voted, we passed the first deadline, which was August 29th, there’s another one coming up which is September 7th, and if we make it past there and maintain a top 5 of the films being shown then we can be eligible for Round 2, which I swear to those of you who have spent numerous hours looking for the 2 films will be a lot easier. With Round 2, there are only 5 films to choose from, so you could find either of them in no time. It seems the marketing worked for people getting to vote and I’m extremely happy about that, the whole college, a full 500 employees T-mobile building, and a floor of people who work in stocks got e-mails and are still voting, including all my immediate family. I’m trying to go at this 100 percent because I want to put faith in the actors and my crew and show them we did something really unique and that I’d love to work with them all again. I just got word that Stalactite/Generous is actually still in the running also, it was towards the end of the films, but people are still running into it and voting so that’s good to see that its succeeding also. I wish they’d show me my damn rating, but its okay, the anticipation keeps me going.
Yesterday was a horrible day, for various reasons because to be honest, I have been doing my best to see The 40 Year Old Virgin, and its been 2 weeks since it’s release and everytime I attempt to go something gets in my way. Yesterday I planned to wake up and go see that, followed by Underclassman and Transporter 2, and then I remembered bouncy day and capture the flag. So to start off my day I fell on my neck on the obstacle course, and couldn’t turn left, and that caused me some tremendous pain, as I laid down in my room, I went around bouncy day one more time and hung out with John, missed my bus and the way it would work is that after 6 or 6:30 the bus stops running in Santa Fe, so I’d be stuck at the mall with no ride home, so I chose to not go. I’d stay and shoot Becca, but I didn’t want her to miss swing dancing, so I hung around and played Capture the flag, which was crazy, not organized and brutal. I spent a lot of my time in jail. I was never really the fast runner, especially across the whole quad. Then I watched Breakin in the Sub, which I have to say has some terrible acting and I really wish there was more to break dancing then hopping, I’m very glad for our contemporary moves. Went to my room and sat down more, bored to tears and out of my mind, I spoke to Vanna over text messaging and Becca called in which I went over and shot some shots for my music video. Plan was to complete everything today, which I’m hoping we get to accomplish. Came back last night and sat around with a heating pad on my neck, and listened to Dilbert and went to bed.
Woke up today feeling like shit, I can turn left but now I can’t put my neck back without it hurting, I’m using the heating pad once again so I assume by Monday I’ll be back to normal. Shoot Becca today, and work, and do some editing if NMC is open, tomorrow consists of homework. I honestly just don’t feel like speaking to anyone, I’m agitated and annoyed and my fucking cell phone is constantly at 1 bar so that every conversation I have cuts out.
Lets see what else, well you ever get that feeling that like people are speaking bad things about you and that’s why you’re overlooked in a lot of situations? I get that feeling.
Girls, there’s always something up with Malik and girls, but it seems that has stopped. Officially tired of trying and looking and caring and being the brother role, the shoulder to cry on, the one who makes others laugh. Any other guy in this college or this city or this entire state can find a date in less than 45 minutes. I’m not going to say anymore that I wasn’t meant to be in a relationship, my friend Aimee said it best, you’ll find someone right for you someday. I just think not this year, or the next. I’m really not feeling anybody right now, like I have a general interest to hear their opinions and speak to them often, but I’m not in the I’d like to take you out to lunch mood, I seriously don’t feel any romantic interest. I think maybe I just needed to get beaten a couple more times before it would stop, so it’s stopped. I’d love to say that the results from this were great and I’ve been having a wonderful time, but really its only increased anger and agitation, so to counter attack that I’ve added a lot more to my plate to keep me busy. People here at this college are really busy, so I should make myself just as busy so I’m not the one calling them to hang out. We’ll both be busy and when we run into each other we can talk about how busy we’ve been and how much it sucks to be busy and that we really should hang out sometime, though we both know its not going to happen. I’m going to clean this room, blast music that I fucking love and play video games until class starts on Tuesday. Of course after doing homework, I’m thinking of also increasing my sleeping hours, 7 is just not enough, I mean I’m still freaking tired when I get up, so I’m going to try 8-9 maybe 10 like I did during the summer.
So for any family members asking, school is great, its better than being at home.
