The importance of a tight crew...

... cannot be understated.

So much has been going on lately, it's insane.

Cool Things Since Last Update
KT visiting me, me visiting KT
Completed a 2.5 minute short film entitled "Reflections"
Received good grades on several assignments
Completed "Zelda: The Wind Waker" in a total of 21 hours over the span of 5 days

Now, we have come to the end of the semester and, in a sense, the end of a distinct period in my life. For the past three years, I have lived on campus. Up to this point, I have had certain responsibilities such as cleaning a bathroom, etc. done for me on a regular basis. However, in less than a week, I am moving to an apartment where I will be responsible for cleaning, paying bills, keeping up with rent, etc. And while it's real cool that J will remain my roommate, it sucks that it's looking like Moxa will not be rooming with us. I know his prospective job in Gwinnett pays more $$$, but I'm a selfish bastard.

Anyway, tomorrow our room will undergo a rather huge change. The following items will leave our room: two lofts, a futon, a TV stand (and various game consoles), refridgerator, microwave.

Found an interesting website over on expectnothing. It allows you to create your own South Park character. I created the following:



I find it hilarious.

By the power of grayskull...

Staff
You preferred a weapon with 23% power over speed and 36% range over melee.

You use a Staff. Length is up to you-- perhaps you use a quarterstaff, a Jo, or a pair of Escrima, but you favor the intense speed and impressive versatility of a simple wooden stick. Effective staff fighters are effective at fighting many opponents at once, even ones armed with swords. Your opponents will rue the day they underestimated the potency of your weapon.

The city never sleeps for you and I

I have a new favorite band: Cartel, from out of Atlanta. You can find them here. Great stuff. Forker turned me onto them.. they are his buddies from high school. How freaking nuts is that, eh? EH!?

Lots of stuff has happened since the last update.

Cool Stuff About Last Week

Finished "Ninja Pins" - What a great feeling. I wrote the script to this short film last semester for a writing class and then this semester I actually get to direct it. It's cool to actually take something like that from its inception to its conclusion. Hopefully one day I can get a copy of it online. It is approximately 8 minutes in final length.
Visited my fiancee - Went to Rome and visited my woman. While my visit was short, fun was had by all. KT was helping head up "90's Weekend," which meant that there were a ton of events all centered around 90's stuff. Movies, a dance, scavenger hunts, etc. It was cute. I'm going again this weekend and I'll be able to stay longer this time.

Those are the only cool things I can think about right now. A ton of stuff has happened, but mainly things associated with work or school. I've never been this busy before in my life. Honestly, 2 or 3 days go by without me sitting down and having much relaxation time with friends or a video game or whatever. Class/work, dinner, homework till sleep. Luckily, summer break is approaching fast. Hopefully his car won't break down on the way here.
