Ahh Blogger.
Oh how I cannot give you up. I leave you from time to time. This time. I hope to stay longer. This month of august has been a draining one. everyday is practically the same. The work never ends in preparation for senior studio.
Since there was a lack of conversations of it between us I'll just let it be known. I'm making a music video for an artist by the name of Rosie Thomas. Last April was when I decided to make my senior year a bit ambitious and shoot too far, too high. I picked up an LP in some record store in Indianapolis, Indiana and had a listen to it. The song that struck me was nice--and then I heard a familiar voice. It was Sufjan Stevens. Brought me memories when I met him thanks to Shannon (a friend whom I seemed to have lost contact with). So I did some research and found her agent's contact. I proposed my idea and they liked it--and since I've made a few changes here and there but it's about at least a 1/3 done.
This year in Senior Studio I will have 2 senior projects done.
I guess a ton of things have happened this summer. I should continue with where I am. For the past month and a half, I've been living with my two older brothers in Ypsilanti, MI. My brother's moved for college, and work related reasons. I moved with them because of strange family matters. This Saturday is move in day for my last year at CCS. It's already that time of my lifetime it seems.
I think this year will be definitely more concentrated into my work into my projects and less on people who are bent on wasting time and energy around me. I would like to hope that people tend to take it a bit more seriously and shoot for something they don't have. I guess it's a learning curve I think I've seen and excited to even attempt it. For the past 3 years I've been attempting to try to better myself as an artist and taking in things that will on benefit me and respected peers. In those 3 years, the Seniors of the time have failed and failed to do anything of outstanding achievements. There have been a few who have it the mark--but just making the cut is pointless. I guess I just have big dreams.
For some reason I picked up one of 3 of my high school year books. This morning I woke up and wondered what an old friend is up to. And I guess time is making it's mark--thanks to Facebook, Myspace, Blogger, and Live Journal you can see what goes and how much has changed. To some degree I'd really like to disband from everything I've been associated. Yet, at the same time I'd like to make new reestablishments. I even thought about that 10 year reunion expected to happen in 6 years or so--or is it the 20 year reunion that happens, I seem to feel indecisive.
I guess all I can hope for is to graduate--while having some good times with those around me for the next 10 months. Save some cash for the right occasions. Move to California. Thats all I'm hoping for I think. Everything else beyond that is sort of out of range. I hope it'll get better. I guess I need new music first. I've been listening to the same stuff for 3 years.
