  • 2002-06-24 13:20:22 Bwahahah. Did the pho thing in under 2 hours! And that's with 3-4 construction-induced traffic jams, avoiding near-death from brain-dead lunatics on the Parkway, and finding that I had no cash upon arriving at Pho 75 -- 10-minute ATM search.

    Heh. I'm a dork. 
  • may your blue moon drip with blood... 2002-06-24 11:16:24 ALWAYS.
    During weeks before I go to Dallas, I always have a complete lack of work to distract me from being excited and impatient about the trip. It's like the upcoming trip somehow sucks all the work from the week preceeding it. My project leader is on vacation for the next two weeks, and the department that I was supposed to start moonlighting for is experiencing a crisis this week, which means of course that they don't have time to bring a newbie up to speed for now. This week is going to be incredibly long and boring.

    I'm incredibly frustrated with the new video. It's nothing like I had imagined it. The wonderful video that had been in my head turned out to be composed of hundreds of scenes that never existed. The whole video feels really flat. Maybe it'll be better once I do some actual syncing and timing of the scenes I have thrown together, but maybe not. I worked on the "climax" of the video last night, and I went to bed feeling really discouraged. There are supposed to be 2 or 3 things going on in that part, and they're all overlayed and stuff...but it looks really cluttered, and you can't tell what's going on. So I stripped it all down and just watched it with the very bottom, "primary" layer. It actually looked really good! But given what's come before it, and what it's been building up to, it doesn't make sense unless I add in the other stuff that makes it look cluttered. The layer that looks good by itself is actually supposed to be more of a background rather than the focus of the action. Damnit. I wanted to enter this in Masters, but I'd be embarassed to enter it in the Expo at this point. I just can't imagine abandoning this idea, though.

    Maybe it would have been better if I'd spent more time actually working on my video this past weekend, rather than spending most of it playing Diablo II.

    I just got an email from my brother in China. He's already bought over 100 bootleg DVDs and he wants to know if there's anything I want. Sheesh.

    Hmmm, what do I want for lunch today? Something that takes a long time, preferably. If traffic isn't too horrid, I could get pho and be back in about 2 hours :) Not like I have anything to do here anyway. Then again, I'd have to take the BW Parkway, which could have me stuck in traffic for hours.
    Or I could drive down to Annapolis and check out the sushi places I saw down there on my way to kendo class. Feh. Or I could just walk over to the cafeteria and get another turkey sandwich :P Choices, choices.

    Tonight: laundry, dinner, kendo, messing with video. 
  • 2002-06-23 21:14:36 I am very very very seriously considering listing my current video with the title, "Sappy Crappy Self-Indulgence."

    That is exactly what it is. I can't imagine anyone else liking this piece of shit. 
  • 2002-06-22 20:27:59 Spent half the day capturing all of Escaflowne for my current video. Gah. What's worse is that I don't even like Escaflowne. Never have, ever since the first time I saw it my first week as a freshman at Duke. I don't understand why, either, because I SHOULD like it.

    Anyway...back to weekend editing frenzy. Company picnic tomorrow. Bleh. 
  • <snicker> 2002-06-21 13:18:30 Teehee...how's THIS for wrong in a box? I think I want to do a quick, silly Eva short to the first verse of the new Eminem song, "My Dad's Gone Crazy," with Gendo as Eminem, Shinji as his daughter Hailie (:D), and Fuyutsuki with a short cameo as Dr. Dre. Nothing I'd ever enter or even post as an entry on the site, just something WRONG to do.

    [Hailie:]
    Daddy, what're you doing?

    [Eminem:]
    Haha

    [Eminem & Hailie:]
    Ok then! everybody, listen up!

    [Eminem:]
    I'm goin to hell, who's comin' with me?

    [Hailie:]
    Somebody, please help him!
    [giggle]
    i think my dad gone crazy!

    [Verse #1:]
    There's no mountain i can't climb
    There's no tower too high,
    No plane that i can't learn how to fly
    What do i gotta do to get through to you, destroy you
    There ain't nothing i can't take this chainsaw to
    [Hailey Makes Chainsaw Sound]
    Fuckin' brain's brawn, and brass balls
    I cut 'em off, i got 'em pickled and bronzed in a glass jar
    Inside of a hall, with my framed autograph,
    Sunglasses with elton john's name, on my drag wall
    I'm out the closet, i been lying my ass off
    All this time, me and dre been fucking with hats off

    [Dr Dre:]
    Suck it marshall

    [Eminem:]
    Tell laura and her husband to back off
    Before i push this motherfucking button and blast off
    And launch one of these russians, and that's all
    [Hailie Makes Explosion Sound]
    Blow every fucking thing, except afghanistan on the map, off
    We wanna stop, we wanna knock the crap off
    [Knocking]
    Halie, tell 'em baby

    [Halie:]
    My dad's lost it

    [Eminem:]
    There's really nothin' else to say ha, i can't explain it

    [Hailie:]
    I think my dad's gone crazy!

    [Eminem:]
    A little help from hailie jade would, should tell them maybe

    [Hailie:]
    I think my dad's gone crazy!

    [Eminem:]
    Theres nothing you could do to save it, could ever change me

    [Hailie:]
    I think my dad's gone crazy!

    [Eminem:]
    There's noone on earth that can save me, not even halie

    [Hailie:]
    I think my dad's gone crazy!
