Recently I haven't been exceptionally busy. I'm not sure why I haven't blogged anything in a while. Maybe no particular day has been eventful enough to warrant documentation past a tweet or two. Anyways, I'll try to combine the highlights of the past few weeks.
I finished up my video project. It's premiering on Friday at Lightworks. I think. Unless they refuse to accept my project because it's not on a DV tape. That would be typical. FVSA. FVSA! In case it didn't come through, that was me saying "FVSA" with disgust. Partially because of their weird submission rules description and partially because they were all set to buy an insert in the Garg to advertise Lightworks, but then they decided that printing the inserts would cost too much, so they backed out. Whether it ends up playing at Lightworks or not, here's a teaser I made for it.
Are you thoroughly teased? Good. I'll put the entire thing up on YouTube after it either does or does not play on Friday.
Well, today was the last day of classes. Most everyone else is struggling through final essays and exams, but I got off pretty easy this year, partially because of my class choices and partially because of responsible time allocation. I only have one upcoming final, and all of my final projects and essays were due a while ago. So tonight I'm going to party it all down at Zack's Genre Night/Pie and Rye Party. It would be complex to explain the concepts behind it, so I'll just leave it at that. For the pie aspect of it, I made a chocolate-glazed caramel tart. I'm sort of afraid to eat it, as it contains enough sugar and cream to give an ox diabetes. But it looks fancy.
The rest of the week should be largely uneventful. And then I guess I'll be going home, where things are even less eventful. Maybe I'll train Sydney to wash dishes or something. I still haven't gotten an internship (Conde Nast, I am waiting for your call!), but I do have anxiety-ridden dreams about either getting an internship or getting rejected from internships on an increasingly regular basis. Either way, I'm locked into my NYU housing agreement and will be in New York at least from June 1st through the 20th. Not sure what I'll do if I don't have a job, but I guess I'll be close to a lot of my friends. They had better be ready to entertain me.

Dogs are easy to train to wash dishes but here is a warning: THEY DO IT WITH THEIR HORRIBLE FILTHY DOGMOUTHS.
