Lots of excitement!

Hello, everyone! LOTS of big news to talk about today, so this entry is going to be a long one. Take time to read the whole thing...because this week, there's alot of exciting news.

First, and foremost, I got my grades for this quarter at school - and I got a 4.0!! All A's! Whoohoo!

Alright, now that all of my bragging is out of the way...yesterday was a very, very busy day for me. I started at 5 AM waking up and heading off to location to teach a Red Cross class. After that, I booked it (in 30 minutes time) to Sutter Middle School, where I teach film class each day. After THAT, I booked it to the school to eat some dinner and releax for less than an hour before my night class began....WOW, it was a busy day. I came home and slept like a rock.

Actually, I didn't come home and sleep right away. I edited for a while. What? you ask? Well, as some of you may have heard - I am shooting a movie for a CLOVERFIELD contest (in celebration of the new movie's release) with my two friends, Jared and Marcus. The three of us recently shot the movie on Monday afternoon, and now, I am currently editing it with the help of an AMAZING special effect artist in Flordia.

Here's a screenshot from the short film. I'm not going to release the story...you'll have to wait and see for yourself.



When the movie IS released (by no later than next Monday), the videos that were submitted to the contest will be put online and America will decide a winner. That means I'll need EVERYONE's help in ensuring our team wins! More details on this soon to come...

One last bit of exciting news: I got a call from Ramon (my boss) today offering me a summer position to teach at a Film Camp. The good news: This is an all day, every day job - and it should be pretty fun (long day + good pay + film + camp = fun). The even better news: We get to pick a few weeks that we'd like to have off (so I can come home and stuff!) I'm looking forward to this, and it should be a really good time since I will still have time to come visit back home :-)

That's about it for now, folks. Tomorrow I am heading over to the DISNEY Corporation for a few hours to meet with their Head of Archieves. I am VERY excited. Following that, Saturday I will be meeting with Sean (with Jared) at Starbucks for a few hours to catch up and gossip....should be pretty fun!
