We shot another episode this weekend, I absolutely cannot wait to show you guys this one. The first one was fun and cute and all but this one is SO my style, so colorful but kind of creepy and can I just say again how much I love the premise of this show? Kids making up stories, directors having to produce them as is. Like I know I've been stressed and had issues but it's always so much fun actually being on a shoot and seeing it all happen. Also, something I've noticed this weekend is that I've gotten a lot more assertive, even just since my first shoot . Like before, when I saw someone do something awesome and I missed it, I just was mentally like, "Damn it!" and wrote it off, but now I'll ask people to do it again for me or even stage things on purpose. Today when our kids wrapped, they were just going to let them go but I asked the line producer to make a big deal of "that's a wrap!" and have everyone clap and it turned out great on my BTS film and it's just so much easier for me now that I've hit my boiling point - I was so worried before about doing a good job and making a good impression that it actually impeded my work and now that I don't care as much, I'm actually doing a better job. I don't know, but it feels much better. Honey badger don't give a shit. ALSO THESE KIDS WERE SO CUTE, I LOVE HAVING KIDS ON SET (I did a little interview with them and they went on and on, giving advice to aspiring actors, I cannot even, my true people)! AND WE HAD CONFETTI THIS TIME! IT GOT EVERYWHERE AND NOBODY EVEN CARED! I wear X-Files shirts and jeans to work and nobody even cares! I swear and sometimes take naps and nobody even cares! It is a great industry! Note to self: remember this next time you bitch about it. Also we got free yogurt to take home! Strawberry because I wanted it!
OMG you guys, I called my mom this morning when I was waiting to leave, we talked for a little bit, it was fine and normal but then I got a text saying she cried after we hung up because she missed me so much. Break my fucking heart, okay.
We finished at like noon so we wanted to go to the beach but it was too cold and hazy :( :( Also we ended up falling asleep lol. I got woken up by this stupid fucking couple in our apartment complex who was fighting with their windows open. The wife was pissed because the husband apparently told his mother that she makes $15/hour and she didn't want her to know. And his defense was that his mother thought she only made minimum wage so he thought he was making her look good, lol. So I listened for awhile just because I love drama and then when it died down, I tried to sleep again. Just as I was dozing off, they started again. Then stopped. I had decided that if they went up again, I was going to scream out my window, "Dude (who's name is Neil, I heard), you need to stop being such a mama's boy, and chick you need to get a better job if you are that embarrassed. And you both need to shut your fucking window." But I didn't hear them again. IDEK how it ended but I nearly made popcorn, it was that srs.
Tonight we went out with Lindsey's friend Robin, we went bar-hopping in Redondo Beach and I love both bar-hopping and Redondo Beach (or somewhere near there, I'm not actually sure. We shot in Pasadena today and I love Pasadena I decided!! So adorable! We shot in a super cute shop, I wanted to BUY ALL THE THINGS). I freaked the fuck out because we got back to Robin's and I couldn't find my phone. We went back to the bar and nobody had seen it. There was a lovely gentleman at the bar, lol omg I must have looked so pissed or stressed out because I walked up, totally professional (or so I thought lol) and this patron was like, "Here's a bottle of whiskey, go for it." lol. I asked the bartender if anyone turned in my phone, he made a call and eventually said no. So this guy asked if he could GPS it for me and let me use his phone and everything, super nice. We were driving back (LOL also we totally passed Jay Leno, like legit - Robin was like, "Do you know who's in that Jag? Jay Leno." So Lindsey like got in the lane to get next to him and it was totally him. This is my first celebrity sighting here, you guys, it's kind of a big deal) and calling it and Robin just goes, totally nonchalant, "It's right there." lol it was under the seat. I felt myself blushing, I didn't even need to look in a mirror. But seriously I was freaking out so much, I was just waiting to get out of public so I could burst into tears and just die. IMAGINE HOW GOOD IT FELT WHEN I HAD IT IN MY HAND AGAIN. Seriously, all the good in the world.
