Big news! I wrote my Color Sync script (color sync is intermediate/junior level project). And I'm not going to make an advanced so this as far as my directing career goes. I've been getting good reviews so far. I got the idea from my wonderful class Ancient Near Eastern Mythology. I like picking things up like that. It's called a frame story where the person in the story tells a story about someone else who told a story about someone else etc. and it all links together. Of course Liv threw in her evil touch to it but whatever. I need dialogue help which Elizabeth kindly offered. But yay.

I also got Devra's movie into my reel. I'm happy with how it turned out for the most part. She got a wierd transfer which cut off everyone's forehead but that will be fixed. And I showed my reel to some people including John Liang who was pleased by it and so far finds it to outweigh Andrew Wonder's personality flaws. Andrew Wonder is a DP who's our year and everyone's always talking about him cuz he shot 16 color syncs or whatever but lately I've been hearing bad reviews and I met the guy (courtesy of Matt Achterberg) which was a...interesting...encounter. But anyway I'm supposed to pull focus for him next weekend. I'm not looking forward to this 6am-6pm schedule I been hearin bout...but anyway.

Yeah this week will no longer be chill time. This was basically my week off and I guess I used it well. I rode horsey! with Elizabeth on Thursday. Friday she came over with Justin Russell, Matt Bryant, and John Liang and we drank Vodka and watched the Rock. I'd never seen it, I still don't like Nicholas Cage but it was a good time. Then I licked my toe...and a certain someone came over and made me extremely sad for a bit. And we talked about my feelings...so ok here's the deal:

I have emotions, I have opinions, and I have feelings. The only thing is I try to hide my feelings when I think that they are unjustified or irrational. I do well to hide it from everyone else but I also try to train myself to stay away from these stupid habits. But anyway...I think Ima try to not be so hard on them. I guess I'm not THAT stupid. But this never happened with my opinions or emotions, just my feelings. What's the difference? Feelings are directed towards other people, emotions are just reactions to them. Or something...iunno maybe its not worth distinguishing whatever.

Saturday I watched Closer and Napolean Dynamite with David. When I first saw Closer I used it as the perfect excuse to stay away from relationships. But now I realize that these people all brought their problems on themselves. Iunno, I still think relationships twist people in wierd ways. But I'm starting to accept that it can be avoided. So now I've decided (along with my feeling thing) that I will take a relationship if the opportunity comes along. Still not looking, but not running. But anyway Napolean Dynamite was awsome as usual. "Tina you fat lard come get some ham!"

Then I had to go to my awful job this morning which made me not sleep like I shoulda. And then it was GORGEOUS!!! So I called David and made him come play with me then he was like nooo I hafta work *whine whine whine* and so I called Mike who decided to wear a jacket in the 75 degree weather and we walked and talked (ya know how come people don't just walk and talk anymore we always have to DO something, Ima propose walking and talking more now) and then he ran off to long island to see Marshall and so I went to weinstein with Matt Bryant and then iunno whatever this is getting long...

THE POINT IS!!! The week of relaxation did me good. And now it's back to life (stress is a mindset and don't think I take it).
