Mid-Morning of the Dead

For my Drama 101 class, our big "final" assignment is to write a one-act play. If it's good enough, it might get picked to be performed for my school's student one-act play festival! I just started it, and here's what I got so far. It's basically gonna be two zombies talking to each other and making fun of horror movie or zombie cliches in the process.

LIFE AND SHIT AND TITS

It's finally coming down to the wire for my internship so I've been crazy busy most of the time. Since I'm not a student at the university I do the internship AND I don't have a Mac for editing and storing files, I got to jump through more hoops than normal to shoot interviews or just shoot stuff in general. For example, I got an interview to shoot tomorrow at 1:30 (plus I got to hold onto it over the weekend for some stuff I'm also gonna film Saturday and Monday), and I found out yesterday afternoon that no cameras are available. My mentor is gonna get me my list of things I need, which is awesome, but in the mean time I'm sitting here anxiously waiting to hear if she's got the equipment or not. And even then I couldn't have checked that stuff out on my own because I'm from Whatcom Community College and not a Western Washington University student. I usually have to have someone else get it for me. And that's usually IF my partners are available at all to get my stuff.

When I can actually sit down and interview the people I need to interview for our news segment projects it's fun and I enjoy it, but the production side of things otherwise I'm not as into. Hence why I don't think I wanna do this as a permanent career anymore (beyond the fact that the intern situation otherwise is just a pain). But if everything works out well I'll actually get all the interviews and footage I need done by next Friday, and I can finally sit down and edit. I don't know much about the post-production process, but it's definately gonna be way less stressful not having to worry about planning out interviews and getting equipment in an overly complicated way.

Regardless it's all made me crazy busy and occasionally really stressed out. When it comes together, awesome. And the subject of the news stories I'm working on are really cool and important. But otherwise, I just want to get this shit down already. It wouldn't be as bitchy-worthy if I loved it to death and this was something I 100% wanted to do, so right now everything is just a big pain. It makes it hard to focus on anything else in my life too, like my Whatom classes, birthdays, socializing and hanging out with people IRL like I normally do, etc. If I have free time, I either do my Drama 101 work or hide and play video games. I'm SO glad I'm gonna have it either done or almost done by June 15th when spring quarter is over.

Other than that, not much else is happening with my life. I got a tumblr, but I usually use it to just spam pictures. Sometimes the drama that I see on there when I search around puts me off from it, but most of the times it's pictures for me. Most of the time I talk about personal stuff on plurk. Twitter too, but plurk more because my mom's not on it and she can't see me swear and talk about sexy stuff. I've also been trying to get down my list of video games I need to finish when I have spare time. I'm finally down to six! That's actually an accomplishment for me, too. I want Mass Effect 3 and Max Payne 3 and a bunch of other stuff really bad. ME3 and MP3 more, but I wanna finish all these games first. That and I don't have much spending money as of late so I might as well wait until the prices drop. Hopefully for PS3, because I think I'd rather get those two games for console right now.

Wound up dropping out of sirenspull  because my slowly-waning-interest-in-it finally came down to me just not wanting to do anything anymore. It wasn't anything against the game or the people, or even a matter of just playing a new character there, I just didn't want to anymore I still like RPing, but I like doing musebox and meme crap more now. I MIGHT look into bigger games again when my internship is over but for now I'm good. 

I also told a guy I've liked for a while how I feel. Since he's an online friend we weren't really sure what to do afterwards, especially since neither of us have been in a relationship before. So we were gonna "see how it goes", but eventually I realized I would rather not do an online relationship, and that I don't feel the same way about him that I thought I did. We talked about it, and he was really chill and understanding about it. And that's awesome, but I felt really bad about it. The only thing is he seems to want to (casually) talk a lot more often than we usually did already, and seems to freak out worrying about me when I bitch about stuff. While that's not neccesarily a bad horrible thing it's like, whoah. Relax. I'm stressed and shit but I'm just bitching and I know I'm gonna be okay. And I know somebody caring isn't a BAD thing, but it makes me think I might have led him on when I didn't mean to. Augh.

I think that's about all that's been going on with my life! I just wanted to dump it all out in one place that wasn't tumblr, where I don't talk much about my life anyway. I get really worn out a lot of the time but I know I'm gonna be okay. There's gonna be an end to my internship soon, I just got to keep working hard til now. But still, bitching to my friends and family when is really, REALLY therapeutic.
