Yes, I am oficially a cat lady. My little guy, "Tibbles", is living with me, and he is my own personal terrorist. I thought it would be nice and relaxing to have him around but he has kinda been a little nuts. i hope he gets over this soon, but he is adorable.
The first three weeks of school have already gone by and I am already deep into work. This is my fourth semester and I guess that is the way that it should be. I'm taking a couple of gen ed classes, sociology and environmental science, which is good to get them out of the way. Digital Post Effects is already way over my head. Lighting for Tv is stuff that I really need to learn more about. I mean I get basic lighting techniques, but it is not going to kill me to go more in depth.
My favorite class this semseter is documentary production. Tim Jackson teaches the course which makes it pretty awesome in itself. The kids in the class are like the who's who of DMP [not me of course], and they really know their stuff. Anyways, the class is basically gonna be a production team making a documentary about media provocation. It's actually going to be really interesting. My section, along with Nilda, is on the feminist activists the "Guerrilla Girls". These are women who wear guerrila masks and promote awarness of the lack of appreciation women artists receive. They make affective posters that are awesome. Well, for part of my assignment, I may get to do a shoot in New York City on them. It is not official yet, but just the idea makes me extremely excited!
The family is still crazy, still driving me up a wall...and the stress continues. I really have to work hard this semseter because if this is what i want to do, I have to give it all i can. It's unfortunate but I have realized lately that for some reason, I always have to suffer from what other people do. I can do what i want to do, I deserve that, and no one can keep that from me if I have done nothing wrong. So there ::sticks tongue out::
