Spring Shattering
Hey everyone,
Finals Week is almost upon me and my fellow WWU peers and that can mean only one thing...
No one is getting any sleep.
In addition to the obvious that also means that Spring Break is right around the corner!
I am really looking forward to this one because for the first time ever I am actually going somewhere and/or doing something exciting for Spring Break: going to DC! Washington, that is.
I am borrowing my friend's Canon Rebel SLR camera for the trip so I will make sure that the it is well documented.
Look forward to (hopefully) daily posts about my adventures as I explore our nations capital!
I will end today's post with a video that I did recently for the that VTV show I work on every once and a while.
Hope you enjoy it!

Ruminations about projects
I've been thinking a lot lately of my own work and how much I really haven't done in the way of film. In order to combat that lack of creativity I have decided to make two changes.
1) I will do at least one creative thing everyday. This could include a drawing, taking a photo, editing something or writing a story. Whatever it is, it needs to start now.
2) Have weekly movie night at my friend Sean's place. Perfect oppertunity to gain some inspiration.
3) I am going to make a short film before next school year. I don't know what it will be about, but it will and needs to happen.
In the meantime I will be making a series of funny short shorts with my friend Chris Antes. We've been talking about doing them for a while now and I see a perfect opportunity to get help out my friend and make some fun, little movies at the same time.
I will keep you posted as things come arise.

So this is the obligatory Death Cab for Cutie quote...
Hope all will be fun and safe for everyone on this fine night.
Its crazy that 2010 is so close, I remember when it felt like a far off year that would never get here.
One cannot help but remember that fateful battle that occured only twenty years ago tonight...
Happy New Year!

My Favorite Things #'s 3, 4, 5 (Christmas edition)e
So, yeah. I didn't put up my last three entries before Christmas. Oh well.
Just so I don't feel like I wimped out on the whole blog I'll give a quick rundown of what they are.
FAVORITE THING #3
X-Entertianment.com Christmas Countdown/Advent Calendar
Before you make any wild accusations, no this is NOT a porn site!
It is a website that does reviews and such for pop culture gems from the late 80's to present time.
I discovered this website when I was around fourteen or fifteen years old and I've been checking back for updates every since. One feature that that I look forward to every year is the Christmas Countdown/ Advent Calendar.
This consists of the main writer of the website, Matt, reviewing various nuggets of Christmas joy in the form of Christmas Crunch and Play Doh Christmas Gift Box Super Set's. These reviews have become infrequent during this time of year but the one thing you can count on being up nearly every day is the Advent Calendar.
The X-E Advent Calendar is a joy to read every season. There really isn't anything I can say to describe it other than you have to read it from the very beginning when they first began to be put up.
Below are links to the individual years. I know it looks like a lot read but trust me, each entry is pretty short and the story that is woven over the years is really a great read if you have some time to kill (or some assignments to procrastinate doing)

FAVORITE THING # 5!
"24 Hours of 'A Christmas Story' on TNT/TBS"
For the past seven years this has been an annual tradition for me and my brother. Now you may ask yourself, 'Why on earth would you want to watch 'A Christmas Story' over and over and over again? Wouldn't you get tired of it?"
To answer your second question: no.
To respond to your first question question: The key is to NOT watch it over and over again. You must watch it like you would eat a tasty snack at a plentiful snack table that would be at a holiday party. Say you like deviled eggs. Well you're not going to wolf down the whole platter! If you did that, you'd get tired of them pretty fast. You just nibble a bit. You savor it, you enjoy it. and thats how me and my brother enjoy this Christmas film.
We watch a scene. We laugh, and laugh, and laugh, and laugh, and laugh. Then we change the channel and watch a documentary on Wal Mart! We then go back and watch Ralphie kick Black Bart's ass for the fifteenth time. It is always a great time and I look forward to it every year.
That brings this favorite thing entry to a close, look for another entry pretty soon detailing my haul this year on this, the grandest of holidays!
