this is funny

if your used to windows, using a mac is like talking to a foreign person, you think your getting somewhere up untill the point you realise the computer has no idea what the hell your talking about. i saw a women jogging with headphones on and i wondered if she was listening to the sound of baby seals being clubbed. if someone opens the door for you, look them in the eyes and kindly say, "thanks, but i got it." and wait till they let the door close, then open it, and walk through. if someone sneezes, instead of, "Bless You", try telling them to shut the hell up. try ending every statement you make in a day with a question. accuse someone of making up the last word they say to you, whatever it is (Ex. "Did you just say....sandwich? you made that word up!")

i realised this today

i realised that i do not posess the mechanism in most people's brains that stresses you out over typical things, like bills, car accidents, getting robbed, and other things most people freak out about. im aware that these things exist and/or happen in my life, but i dont exhibit the typical stressed behavior that most do. it worries me a little because i dont go crazy when i have a bill and i dont prepare for paying it or if i wreck my car i am almost immediately over it. its nice not getting stressed out over those things but it just means i direct all my stress to other situations like schoolwork and make them seem so hopeless that i instantly want to give up before i even try. so i realised that today and im gonna try to either delete my stress all together, or figure out a way to dole it equally to each stressfull situation.

Zombie Chronicles

i filmed the first scene for the first episode of a tv show called Zombie Chronicles. i dont know why im so stuck on Zombies but i guess ill ride the train as far as it will take me. i made a girls throat look like it was gushing blood, and my freind Bear made it look like his eyeball was hanging out, so thats good. the show is about a zombie outbreak, and everybody dies. i dont want to give away too much, but if it sounds interesting, you can check it out sometime this summer when i finish the episode. i think i want to get more into special effects because im pretty good at it and i really like doing it, which is important for me because i have the worst A.D.D. in recorded history. i will definately post the raw footage of the gore on my website, or at least link it on my website, when i do ill let you know.

this one is boring

im in the ARC posting a blog. i dont have the internet at my new house yet. theres an asian person to the left of me, she seems nice. its gonna be a pretty good day today, i might build something. i heard of a good way to avoid parking tickits at my school, if you just park in a teacher parking spot and get a 20 dollar tickit, you just take the tickit and park in teacher parking or wherever you want and put the same tickit back on your windshield so they think they already gave you a tickit. itsa like a 20 dollar park anywhere pass, worth it! i put my dog on the roof of my house last nigt and immediately realised that dogs look funny on houses. ive been listening to the band Iron Horse a lot lately, if you have the chance, check em out.

random thoughts

i wonder how radio carbon dating works. why cant the two old guys from the muppets just squash the beef? why does everyone put their furniture against the walls in their place? im gonna move all my furniture to the middle of the room and hang out on the outside, see how it is. ive always wanted to build a boat. i have a pair of pajamma pants with penguins wearing santa hats all over them, so i guess all you have to do is be some sort of arctic creature to be associated with christmas these days, because where are penguins in any christmas story? think about it. the palm of my hand is bigger proportionately than my fingers, so when i was in elementary school and had to trace my hand for turkeys, i always had fat stupid looking turkeys, ruined my childhood.

its hard to do schoolwork in the library

its hard to do schoolwork in the library because i cant smoke, i cant scream randomly (important part of my studies). i cant take a break and lay down because someone will steal my computer. i cant smoke. i cant even think in here and im pretty sure its directly related to the fact that these chairs dont have arms. i think i just saw a 12 year old walk in. i cant eat or drink in here. i cant watch tv or play music. i cant smoke. and the keyboard sounds like a typewriter. yeah, it sucks doing schoolwork in the library.

where movies will be in 5 years

in five years, the movie theatres will be totally mobile. theatres will be obsolete because there will be virtual reality programs for 3d movies anywhere you go. special effects will sadly all be computer generated. all movies will be shot in digital and movie sets and shooting on location will become obsolete. computers will be designed specifically for on set editing. dvds will probably become more interactive with alternate scenes and endings. the picture quality will continue to get better as the technology in plasma screens progresses. the limits of what is appropriate movie content will be pushed as well. there will be a great increase in R rated movies as society sinks deeper into an age of the "gross". one thing that wont change is the "do what works" attitude of most media practitioners. if one idea makes money in the box office, always expect 6 more just like it.
