a recap of the past 2 months

i don't think i'm a blogger. that is, i don't find a need to put my thoughts on the interwebs for everyone to peruse. i like the idea that my thoughts can affect a worldwide audience. i just don't really find the time or make the time. well anyhow, here is my recap of the past 2 months.

- i won the national geographic film/psa contest. i was subtly surprised, to say the least. as part of my winnings, i get to go to wash d.c. to go to the symposium they put on every year. pretty stoked about that.

-our school put on an event that raised 8000+ for the napa valley food bank. i designed some things for the fashion show. the whole thing was fun and worked out well.

-i realized a couple things about people. this isn't really deep or anything, but a lot of people use other people for their own benefit, while seeming like friends. there are few people that have an ulterior motive outside of their own benefit. i, am sad to say, fit that description time to time.

-been playing in our school's volleyball doubles intermurals. our team name is oscar and smuts. it's pretty legit. we're basically 1:1 in wins and losses so i guess we're balanced and whatnot. no worries, it's fun and something to look forward to after 4 days of constant classes from 10-5/7. my partner's really chill too.

-didn't do too fly on the last bio exam. these bio exams are basically my life. and i should be spending more time on my life. seriously, i need to hustle down and study. truly.


-became a school senator and biology club president. they're not really biggies because not many people ran for the spots. but im pretty stoked to do some stuff with it next year.

-one of my friends couldn't get banquet tickets to the banquet my school is putting on. so, we're making our own banquet. it should be super fun.

-my tmj is back. before my jaw wasn't cracking, but now sometimes, my jaw locks into a certain place and i need to rotate it around to get it placed again. it's weird.


-i'm in a play. it's a lot of rehersal times. note to self: don't do theatre unless you're taking less than 16 credits.

-i'm planning on shooting my next film in a week. i have yet to finish the plot or even start the script.

-have watched a crapload of films. mostly in class, but some not. some are ehh. some were amazing.
