Hmmm i did some editing today, not much, its weird im soo creative but im too tired, thats one of the things about me, im so creative when im tired... if i had the energy to make use of it i would be using my potential, really a dead end situation, the way i get things done is slowly, patience, which i have alot of anyhow, in fact most of my life has been doing things slow, a re-curring theme in my life, that hardly deferrs, and i dont really mind it now i think about it, and idea will get me excited, im a typical gemini really, passion springs from something fresh, and the seed is planted, grows but exponentially slower and slower does it reach its height.
Using today as an example, i started the day editing about 30 secs of my golf video thing, something i enjoy, i love computers, and i have hours of footage of various past passions, about 2 years ago me and a friend , probly the closest real life " friend " i ever had, i used to be a sports nut, weird, anyhow, we filmed us playing a round at my local course, i rule at golf, in all realism i could become a pro with a bit of money and training, but its not really my thing anymore, handy skill to have should my other passions fail though, you can play golf professionally til your 50 in regular pro status, how many sports that pay players millions can last that long? none, golf is unique that way, i could practise for 10 years working some shitty job then enter the tours a refined player and earn millions with just 3 or 4 top tens, and thats the poorer events, i would only be in my early 30's, barring injury able to play 20 more years in a sport that doesnt easily wear if you play it right and keep fit.
Back on track, so we have this footage, its ok footage, filmed on my old panasonic high8 , but i convert it to digital through the vcr, and wala, fairly good quality. I'm just having fun really, its not for any purpose than just to get my creative flow peaking, my girl is offline for a few months possibly so its song-writing season, trying to gear myself up for a run of tunes, who knows if ill go the distance and churn them out or bust and continue this 6 month writers block, my tabs lately have stunk too, oh well....
So ive got this footage, pain staking process coz my computer needs ALOT more memory, so the captures can only be 3 mins to save it from freezing, got them on the other day, maybe last wed, now two days ago i pick a song to use, they're kind of packages, hell if i'd gone to uni i could do that too, networks always need talented package editors, anyhow what if this what if that, blah!! . Ive got my song, " Nitro(youth energy) " by The Offspring, and it works nicely, i like most every song by them , so :D , and its fast paced, im thinking how will this go with golf :l , but then bam its simple , quick cuts , slow mo's when lyrics permitt, diverse techniques, not much putting, just the fairway shots, coz it looks kewl in slo mo with the divots being chunked out , weee, going along nicely, actually ill finish it up tonight, in the mood now.
Speaking of in the mood, was horny earlier, couldnt be bothered servicing it, now i missed the window and i want it back !, oh well, thems the breaks. Missing my girl, maybe thats why, hmmm dunno i really wanna tell her how much i want her in my arms, reaching out but she cant hear, maybe she can, she is psychic, BABY I WANT YOU !!!!! ,hmm hope she can hear, i miss her but it doesnt depress me that shes not here, im overly optomistic, but eh shes never going to leave me methinks, i mean she dont even have friends, same as me, doesnt go out, which is why i trust her, i love her, and every song she ever introduced me to reminds me of her, shes the single reason my musical taste stetched to where it has, one person, no one else could i see being what she is for me, she likes moist " ressurection " that song is beatiful and i just played it, almost makes me cry really, i see straight through to her soul, she told me on the phone one day " i think the little guitar bit with the piano is kewl " shes so techniqually amateur, its cute, but i saw straight to the root of it, she loves the song coz it has power, and that part of the song she spoke of made her feel a certain way, about me, about her, and i connect with it now when i hear it too, kind of a bridge for our love, which i value, music is our prime connection, sometimes she says " music means nothing to me " when shes trying to prove nothing means anything but me, only i wouldnt want it that way, music can enrich two ppl further, so can anything, from a movie, to a sex toy, the beauty of love is that it can be affected, best if affected positively obviously.
Well ive wrote enough for about 5 days, but more tomorrow if im feeling reflective...
