I was a few minutes late to Film Lab this morning. I decided to take my time while getting ready, sitting down a nice breakfast of crunchy corn flakes. I shuffled through an assortment outfits until I was content. I figured I'd ride a bicycle to school today. I didn't know it was raining. It's Utah. It doesn't rain. I almost didn't know what to do, I haven't seen rain in so long. I decided to buck up, jump on the bike and ride up to campus. I was late, so I wanted to be as little late as possible. I walk in to class 5 after the hour and a student was at the front of the class giving a pitch.
....wtc!?
Everyone had to give their story pitches today. It is for our final project. Everyone in the class gives a pitch that they have made, then we pick the top 4 pitches, and split up into groups to make photo essays about the story.
I didn't know that was today. I was down the list a few students, so I whipped out my notebook to search for ideas. Billy Collins saved me. I had written about his poem Forgetfulness.
I pitched the idea. I said that we could show this poem through various photographs by personifying each memory that the narrator forgets, showing them bidding farewell, packing their bags, and joining together with other lost memories in some far away place. For example, the poem talks about forgetting the quadratic equation, so you could show a student in class looking desperately on to a man walking out the classroom door with a "oh well" expression and the equation written across himself.
My classmates were amused. They seemed to like the idea. I answered questions about the pitch, thanked them for listening and took my seat.
Sigh. I don't really care if my idea gets chosen. It'd be neat if it did. But
The poem was really fitting for my situation. Forgetfulness is a silly thing.
The Good and Bad goin down right now
the good will be indicated by + signs, the bad by -. No doi.
- I haven't posted in a long time. I feel I don't document my life well enough. shame.
+ Applying to the film program. I want to finish by tomorrow so I can turn it in early.
- Applying to the film program. So stressful, and I don't take rejection very well. I don't know what to do if I don't get in... humanities major? bleh.
+ I went home last weekend = ill, yo. I busted out my creative sample. I've been trying to upload it to the online internet. But it takes a lot of time. The family is good. It was also good to be in the homeland. Sorry to the kids I didn't hang out with. Don't feel bad, I didn't hang out with anyone but the family. But I'm okay with that. Step off, ya'll!
+ just ate J Dawgs. Perfect for a sunny day.
+ I am growing out my hair. Maybe that should be a - ? it's funky
- don't know where to live next year. I'm pushing toward living in a house, but some of my peeps are a bit scared of that idea.
+ morgan is a nice boy.
