- Hooooooooo boy 2002-07-08 23:41:09 I have no idea why I feel so good tonight. All of a sudden I am "feeling" the video I am making. I don't know how to really describe it. Its like I am in the "zone". After all this friggin time, I finally get to this point. Good thing though. Anyway I will take advantage of this time to accomplish all that I can. Unfortunately I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow morning so I can't stay up too late unless I want look like a zombie tomorrow. But first I have to write to my penpal/email pal Hitomi and email this guy from eBay that is supposed to be sending me some pencil boards. Well so long!
- Update 2002-07-07 19:32:16 I hit the dreaded "editor's block" (as I like to call it). Damn it, I can't stand this. I had it all planned out and once again BAAAAAAAAAAAAAM. Dreams shattered. Visions dissolved. A feeling of agony and dispair sets in. Anger. Sadness. Frustration. Helplessness. And the worst of all: thinking that I should abort the video. Just when I had hit rock bottom, I came here to .org and just let the AMV atmosphere heal my wounds and restore my confidence. Yes, I can do this. Yes I WILL do this!!!!!

I've been working on this Escaflowne video for the longest time (there's a Billy Joel song called "for the longest time"...anyway). Edit edit edit. Move clip there, move it back over there..Wait NO it fits better over HERE!
That's been my life for the last 5 weeks (even more I think). Doesn't matter that I had the whole video planned out before I even started. Nope cuz once I get the clips on the timeline and I hit ENTER, my world shatters. Everything I had planned goes down the drain cuz it just doesn't FIT. Well weeks later I am pretty much done with all the verses (lyrics) and the ending. The choruses are almost done... so that leaves the intro. I probably spent over 7 hours on the intro so far and I am still not satisfied. So I listened to just the intro non stop for an hour last night. And then I got an idea. Which I am gonna put into action right now. Just wanted to babble before I started working. It's gonna be a long day. This better look good. blah blah blah -

I keep thinking today is Sunday for some reason. Anyway, I've been working religiously on my Esca video. I am on one of my breaks and I was hoping to download a good video to watch later. But all the videos I have found so far aren't downloadable (is that even a word?).
On Thursday (July 4! YAY AMERICA) I was utterly sick. I vomited three times and had a stomachache that lasted until this morning. Unfortunately it's not unusual for me to get sick like that. Anyway I watched Ghost in the shell and Grave of the Fireflies, both which were borrowed from the library . Ghost in the shell was alright. I am not really into the whole crazy sci fi thing. Grave of the fireflies was a good movie though. Very real, very touching. Even made me think of my relationship with my older brother.
Hmm My arm itches. That's about it -

While taking a shower 5 minutes ago I realized that I never spoefiied where the 696 number came from. It came from the number of journal hits I had. Now I have 703. Since its been awhile since I've read anyone's journal, I have forgotten how much I used to like it. Its cool when people talk about their lives and feelings cuz after awhile you feel like you know the person even if you might not even know the person's real name. Alot of the times I can understand what other people are going through with their relationships , school, money, work, etc.
Today is my last day at work. I quit because I can't stand the city of where I work, and one of my bosses is a screw up. The company hasn't paid taxes in years, one of our driving instructors isn't even licensed, etc. The front counter where his desk is is a mess. I gave up cleaning up because the next day it all starts piling up again, and he doesn't like to throw things out. I made good money, but oh well. If I stayed there any longer I think I would have just died. But I need to blow dry my hair now so I can go to my last day at work. I love my hair and it's almost to my waist now YAY. I think my hair is the only thing I am vain about. I think I will dedicate a journal entry to my hair. Hmmmmmmmmmmm
Maybe not.
Anyway blow drying my hair takes me a good 15 minutes. But I am lucky (actually unlucky) because my hair isn't very thick or heavy. But if it were, forget it.....
