back again
Man, I've gotten reallly bad at updating this in thelast few weeks. Anyway, things have been crazy hectic. My alarms had been going off at 6am 5 days a week, with me keeping busy straight til night time with work of some kind.
I'm happy to say today was my last day of just classes. All I gotta worry about now is the final, final stuff for our film and the 5 finals I've got next week. So this weekend might not be too much fun stuff but at least one week from today I'll be free again.
Me and Ryan picked up our graduation forms today, hopefully one year from now we'll be out, and unemployed, but at least free. We might have to get two classes out of the way this summer but hopefully we'll score spots in the online courses and do it from home.
I haven't been out much lately. Hardly have even talked to anyone. I tried to touch bases with Pammy in the last few days but I think we're both swamped lately. Shes gonna be movin into her new apt soon and that kinda sucks cause its a smaller room for her and shes sharin with two other girls now. Not to mention they are the most annyoing girls ever when their drunk. I remember being at the InMemory show and they were pissed drunk bumpin into everyone and actin likes complete asses. Anyway I'm hoping they're more tolerable when sober.
Uh-oh, ryan just started an IM with "you're not gonna like this"... have I mentioned how afraid I am lately to check emails or listen to voicemails? I've been killin myself with work lately and any little setback, like actors canceling on me, composers not gettin stuff done, greg lagging on getting me the after effects stuff, etc would realllly stress me out. Anyway, he just informed me that countrywide is run by a bunch of assholes, which knew, but now has been further confirmed. Apprently they think its the law (even though its really not) to give employees 1 10 min break and an unpaid 30 min break for a 6 hour shift, as opposed to 2 paid 15 min breaks. In other words they don't wanna pay us as much for being around there 6 hours. I hate that place, with a passion. I think about quitting everyday. I sometimes ask myself, why didn't I go ape shit on the AVP and just get out of there. I should, maybe I even will, I dunno. It'd be nice to have a job that I didn't hate though.
So my bro is stuck up in the USC hospital until at least monday and then however long it takes for recovery. He landed on his arm badly playing bball and has 2 fractures and some muscle or tissue damage. Damn public hosptial systems take so long that even though they have him there right now theres nothing they can't do the surgery until next week. My moms bday is today and this was not good news for her. She came home and just started to cry. She gets so emotional when it comes to stuff happening to us.
Anyway, I'm excited to get a new computer. I can't wait to get on that. As soon as I get some free time I'm gonna get on that. I gotta start doing small video project snad cutting them so I have a reel. Good news for me is I have Ryan, Asher and Greg all in need of reels also so I have people who are more than down to do stuff this summer.
Otherwise things are good. I've been stressin a lot but at the same time I think I handled all my workload pretty well. We'll see what kind of grades I end up with but either way I know I did a good job all around.
I miss pammy, I haven't seen her in at least one month and we normally talk a lot more than we have been. I plan on visiting soon though and maybe takin' cinty and just havin some time together. Sb is madness, I don't know how she can do anything out there.
Anyway I'm done for now
