I've been just as bad at posting. Total winter blahs over here. What is the theme of this blog again, anyways? Maybe it should just be a back and forth between each other. Or not, I dunno.

I registered for next semester's classes last night. Editing, producing, east asian geography, web art&design, intellectual heritage II. Weird I'm gonna be a senior. Kinda looking forward to being finished with school. This kid today, who I've sorta made friends with in my film class, told me his idea for his final project. He wanted to make a movie, cause you can make an art project or just write a paper. I am uninspired/brain dead so I'll probably just write a paper. Anyways, his idea was soooooo generic cliche student film: girl goes to frat party, drinks, does drugs, gets raped. the end. What do you say when someone asks you what you think about that? I said "that's messed up."  It sort of seemed like i was commenting about the rape, not the entire idea. 

The whole film major thing has given me a complex where I judge all the other kids really harshly but don't do anything myself because I'm scared of being just as awful as them.

Also I sort of accidentally bought a film camera from ebay, but then realized it's 8mm not 16mm so unusable because no one uses 8mm since like 1930. Ebay is so tricky and its a fun competition to win the bids but then you get caught up until you've won something you dont even want! I hate making mistakes like that. 

Well that's my life. Actually, tomorrow and saturday I am being an usher at the philly film festival so I'll get to see a bunch of movies for free. Speaking of which, today in class I saw two great movies, totally would recommend The Day I Became a Woman- it's an iranian narrative 3 stories of women, and A Man Vanishes(1967)- a japanese documentary/semi narrative about a man who goes missing. Both were really really beautiful as well as having captivating stories.
