Tractor filled late nights

It's been pretty busy the last week or so. Last Tuesday a couple of friends and I drove down to San Diego to hit up a MuteMath/Mae concert at the House of Blues. It was AMAZING. My internship is still going wonderful and I still love it there. On Sunday a group of us went surfing at El Porto beach, also a super fun awesome time. I was able to get up to my feet, but neveer did get all the way up on the board. It was quite a tiring day, but fun nonetheless. I filmed my final 5 minute film last weekend. That was by far my most fun project to shoot. It was a stop-motion animation about tractors. I was able to create a mini farm in my apartment and it smelled so wonderful! It made me miss home, the country, and the smell of fresh air. Tonight I am up finishing up the editing and getting DVD's ready to burn. Although I wish this was a more thought-provoking post, it just can't be that at 2:30 in the morning when I have been running on less than 6 hours of sleep a night for the past almost 2 weeks. Not really sure why that's the case, but it is. After I get all my DVD's burned and my final 5 min project printed to tape I will be able to relax for the rest of the week as my duties for the 8 minute film won't pick up until mid-next week at earliest. The stinky part is that I will have to spend Thanksgiving break editing, but how bad can that be when I love editing? eh shouldn't be too horrible!

Anyway I think I am gonna start the trek back towards the apartments and let the computer in the editing lab do its thing over night...I just hope that Tony doesnt decide to close out of things when he gets here in the morning...especially if my stuff isnt done going through converter!

Night all. (and for those of my friends that cared enough to come over to blogger to read about the happenings of my life, don't forget you can comment over here too, even if you don't have a blogger account!)
