The day after
2006-06-23 01:01:20
Before I pass out from hunger from having just woken up from a 12 hour sleep and having had nothing since almost 18 hours ago I felt like writing a thing or two now because I've always felt I'm at my most nostalgically reflective when I'm absolutely hungry, perhaps because the heavy weight one feels in one's heart during a moment of strong emotion is not hindered in its fall by a full stomach... meh.
Anyway, yesterday a good friend of mine left for Malaysia, this time for good. He was an international student and after the four and half years that he's stayed here, he has come to enjoy life in this fair land of mine to actually want to become a permanent resident. However due to some tragic events in his family, he has decided to come back home with no real thought of coming back, at least not in the near future.
So with yesterday being the last day of my exams as well, and us having a rather large farewell dinner with almost everyone from our bunch of students turning up (I never realised how many Indians I've befriended over the years), one cannot feel that things will never be the same again.
I've got a sense of trepidation currently as I'm not confident about one or two of the exams I did (but with my record of not having have failed an exam from that professor before and never any first semester subjects, I'm hoping these are all just end of year jitters). My job hunting leaves a lot to be desired (as in truth, I've done zilch). And finally, I'm way behind in my AMV projects too...
Still... I'm at a cross-road now which I thought was so far away, seemingly only yesterday. Before, my life revolved around the premiere of major movies, well, movies that defined the generation, and that last of those which I recalled was Star Wars Episode III. Not saying it was the greatest or anything, just that for me it was something else to look forward to with some degree of enthusiasm. Now, the last thing that is clear in my mind is the approach of my graduation in October...
With that... the future is one long empty corridor with no light at the end of it. It's too dark to see if there are doors I must take along the way. It's not a sense of fear that I feel for this unseen future because I know somehow or other, I'm going to land on my feet, I always have... but it does leave me with a feeling of loneliness as I look back at the corridor I've already travelled, now illuminated and showing all the doors I've walk through, memories of happy and sad times and things that have shaped me as a person.
Yesterday is as far away from me now as tomorrow is.

I choked on my own saliva.

The beginning of my demise has been completed...
A made another video!
I'm too melodramatic... XD
Anyway, I'm right now at a decision point... upload now, or wait till after AVCon (July 15). What say you?

This time...

It's really begun...
Wow, I'm amazed how pretty this is turning out... and the fact of the matter is, I haven't been this psyched about a project in a while... which is kinda bad since I still have those MEPs to do as well as exam this Thursday @_@
I just gotta tell you this... the first 8 seconds... 1 minute to render 1 frame... but it's worth it. Too bad no one's going to see this for a while, even if indeed I will probably finish tomorrow (before the creative juices leak out)...
*sigh*
I don't even want to sleep... but I better before Mum wakes up XD

procrastinating?

Me?
Perish the thought... I'm busy thinking that I want to get to work on the video <.<
Uhuh...
Even I don't believe that...
However, as a celebration to Anime Academy Heroes reaching 5000 hits (it's currently 4999), I am at the moment toying around with this little idea of mine... ;)
