So... um. Yeah.. I suppose this is the title

Now is the time when I have actually figured out what to do with myself. It turns out that the more I have looked into my life and how I live it, I have always taken certain directions towards goals that I never really recognized... until now. I now know that a four year degree is in my future, and my field of study will no longer be communications. It will be a double major in art and psychology. Both Fields are something I have long been interested in and often pursued heavily while ignoring classes that may have better suited my major. I suppose I have Leah to thank for this, her recent internship has made me look at where I am in relationship to the goals I have always held.
Those goals have not changed, I am still 100% vested in making movies, and equally vested in my current film company. But I am no longer just assuming that I can achieve these goals my own way... I have come to realize that certain steps must be taken to further my career and life the life I have chosen. Many others besides her have served as examples in my life, and I am not saying that she is the sole catalyst for the changes I hope to implement, but the opportunity she has been granted made me fully grasp the opportunities I have squandered out of pride or foolishness may still exist.

it is time that I seized the many opportunities available to me, without the hesitation that previously plagued my decisions. Some how this all feels like the right decision to make at this time. Now all that remains for me to do is complete what schooling I have left at SAC and choose the school in which to achieve my new goals.

I feel like a million dollars.

Somethings in life don't get much better. My dad and I had the first real conversation we've had in years tonight. We sat outside smoking the cigars I bought him for father's day, and celebrated the Spurs victory.... It's amazing to me how good moments like that just sort of come along every so often. I just thought I should share this with the rest of the world. :)

almost free

7 days from now I will be unemployed yet again. It's one of those things that I am alternately ecstatic and frantic about... First, I don't have to go to work everyday for that tyrant Nader, second I have to find another job or I will have to give up many of my liberties. So I am more than a little apprehensive over the whole thing, but still very happy to be free of my old job.

If anyone knows of places that are hiring, I would be most grateful... but till I find another job I am gonna enjoy my pseudo-vacation.

Schedule Delays

The construction of the set for our current movie is once more delayed... this time we simply didnt have the resources to finish the set. I can't wait for the day when this company is sucessfull enough that we wont have the these problems. Anyways, if anyone is interested in a first hand look at how movies are made, I am sure we will need some extra help before this is done... feel free to gimme a call.
I also cant wait till we are sucessfull enough to date supermodels and drive Ferarris, but for now one step at a time.
