About time...
...to use this infernal thing to update those that give a darn. If that isn't you, feel free to skip on down to the image.
So first off, I recently graduated and put a final end to that heinous beast known as standardized 'education.' I now have a BA in Interactive Media from the Cinema School of The University of Southern California. Now I get to pay a good portion of my paycheck back to that infernal place for pretty much the rest of my life. Funny how that works out. You bust your ass and spend tons of money so you can get a job to then turn around and pay for all that time. Does that seem wrong to anyone else?
Next, I signed the papers making me an official full time employee at Activision in the Santa Monica headquarters working on the Call of Duty franchise. With that comes the horrible realization that I now have to pay major taxes, worry about health care, 401k, stocks, and various other societal requirements. This is the first job where I have actually liked every person that I work with. It is a fantastic launching point for the rest of my career in video games, and according my mentors, Im already on a fast track. Woo.
Thirdly, I spent a week escaping Los Angeles by way of the Bay Area. It was fantastic. Something about that entire area makes me constantly happy. Every time I return, my army of friends grows...soon we will take over the world! I also had my first official photoshoot in my first ever fully done cosplay...coolest. feeling. ever. I miss everything about the trip and I cant wait to go back.
Deuce+deucely, relationships are fucking weird. You think you know a person, and then it turns out you were only fooling yourself. Some friends and lovers are going/gone, some are awesome, and for some odd reason some are returning. I still dont know quite what to make of it all. I know there are a select few people who make me happy in a romantic capacity, but I sometimes have major problems trusting that sort of thing. Especially after the events of the last couple of weeks. Quite odd the things that we think will hurt us turn out to be not that bad, which then leads to a sneak attack from another direction.(not worth getting into)
Blahly, I am trying to get back into my gaming and Anime while still keeping up with upcoming cons, rocky performances, and hanging out with people. Crunch time is coming down the pipe at work, so I probably wont be calling anyone, but I would love to make time for anyone who calls me. I am also looking into finally losing my workout virginity in any way possible.
Lastly, I am gently putting out the feelers for a new place to live. I dont know what the timeline is, but it would at least be nice to know if anyone would be interested in looking with me.
*Edit: I forgot to mention that I posted a plethora of new pictures on myspace, many of which cannot be seen if you aren't my friend. There are even more coming in the next couple of days. Friends with cameras rock and I want to do shoots with everyone, provided you let me use your camera to take shots of you.
Anyways, that's all I have for now, which means you probably wont be seeing any posts until the next big tragedy or life event. And with that, I give you:
Simple late night photography by a fantastic person.
