Somebody bought me 6 months of Dreamwidth! I wish I knew who you were so I could hug you and kiss you and call you your real name. Thank you ♥. Must begin search for new icons.
I've been listening to Adam Lambert's CD recently, which is such excellent cookie-baking music, you have no idea, except for when you're too distracted by dancing to yourself while washing dishes to notice that the cookies are burning. So it has its flaws. Also I have discovered that it is impossible to listen to Strut while walking without actually strutting, so take that under advisement if you're in company.
So over the entire summer I've been working on this project for school -- all voluntary because Film students are here to be taken advantage of, but all in all it ended up including pretty much a lot of work. It's for a new documentary/interview TV show that's gonna air here in December, modeled after the British format 24 Hours With..., and my former roommate and I worked on a specific episode, mostly in researching and editing. The episode we worked on was chosen to represent the show at the Rosh Pina Festival, which is an annual convention for the Israeli TV industry -- where content meets technology -- and there are panels and premiers and mingling and so forth. And my roommate got us both free tickets (which are normally expensive, whoa), so that's where I'm gonna be this Friday. And at first I was reluctant because Rosh Pina is a 3.5 hour drive away and I need my weekend and it's the first night of Hanukkah, but hey: it's official industry business! My name's gonna be in the credits! The original tickets were 350 shekels and I'm getting in for free! I'm gonna take my new camera to Rosh Pina! It's kind of exciting :-) For once, I hope it doesn't rain.
Link from miss_porcupine: (Mormon) Senator Orrin G. Hatch (from Utah), self proclaimed Jew lover extraordinaire, has penned a catchy holiday tune, "Eight Days of Hanukkah". Article here, video here. This made me LOL so hard. Not at anything he did, because you know, I actually think it's kind of sweet and good intended and whatever, but just, the song itself. Not that Israeli Hanukkah songs are brilliant; the lyrics to two songs I sing annually sing are:
a) Dreidel, spin, spin, spin / Hanukkah is a good holiday / Hanukkah is a good holiday / dreidel, spin, spin, spin / Spin here, spin there / A great miracle happened here x2
b) I have a candle, I have a candle, I have a thin candle / I will light my candle in Hanukkah / In Hanukkah I will light my candle / In Hanukkah I will sing songs / lalalalalala, lalalala.
...so really, who am I to judge.
