it's a beautiful day out and i should be running in circles in the park or cool-y sipping on a drink in some beer garden but alas i am here in the internerd cafe catching up on my lack of internerding.
week one back at the film fest was great. intense, a bit stressful but all in all great. i am so happy to be back. i wish they had money to keep me on all year because the atmosphere and the people are just so good. not to mention the excitment of learning all the great films and guests and events that are to happen during the actual festival in August. too good. i felt a bit intimidated the first couple days because i am now in the office with the artistic director and programme producer and god i hope one day i can be just like them (while still being me of course). that might sound lame but i don't know its kind of nice and refreshing to have inspiring and awe-some people to look up towards (espcially at an adult age, i mean when does it ever happen really?)
danny is running the marathon tommorrow. i am super nervous for him but he seems to be as cool as a cucumber. we went to the offical starting point today so he could get his microchip thing that he has to attach to his sneakers so that they know how far you run and stuff. i think they get free smoothies and massages afterwards hehe. i should fake the last mile so i can get some too haha.
thats all really. oh no its not. i learned that i only get paid once a month! (a common system here in the UK but not one i have ever had). i am a bit horrified because the next pay date is not until the 28th and i am seriously broke ass until that day (or until danny gets paid a week earlier). no haircut or facial as i had planned for. sniff sniff yes i know a tragedy.
i wish i had some friends today to have poor people fun with. at least i signed out two films from work to watch tonight.
