Done

So Friday is the last day of school. So far today, I was the only one who finished both my final projects. They're all due tomorrow but I thought I'd get them over with. I did a script for a children's animated short, and a short random one for business of scriptwriting. Both were adapted from books.
We have to pitch the business one tomorrow.
Here's the log line for mine: The day Hitler was born.
I adapted it from a Roald Dahl short story called Genesis and Catastrophe. It's actually a true story... I chose the shortest story (5 pages) I could find in his book, The Collected Short Stories of Roald Dahl. Love that book. I wrote the script in just 2 hours before going to school in the morning. Busted my balls just so that I wouldn't have to work on anything tonight.
I can't wait til school is over. I'm not even staying for the end of school party on Friday. There's no way.

Oh yeah, I decided I'd put an album together... with beats that I made and am about to make. I'll try to get it done by summer. I wish I could have a bunch of rappers on it... Come to think about it, I might try to get some Mozambican guys on a few, so it's not just an instrumental album. One guy from Toronto/Mississauga already asked me if he could rap on a beat I had on myspace, so he's probably working on that already. I have no idea who he is, but I think he's a pretty good rapper. And on top of everything, Fil said he would mix/engineer my album for free!

Speaking of Fil... he asked me if I wouldn't mind writing scripts for a reality TV show he's working on. I don't know what he means by that...but I think I'm going for it. He still needs to fill me in on all the details. (what a pun)

Booya.

Cold

It's cold in the basement. My room. Our place.
Crap. Heaters aren't working anymore because it's "spring" already.
Didn't sleep last night cuz I worked on my children's script, finished it and handed it in today. I adapted a children's book called "Hi! Fly Guy!" My teacher said he read a bit of it in class today, and said my writing's pretty good. I know that already though, old man. When it comes to writing, I'm on top of things, yo! I'm on point! You better recognize, old man. Just kidding. I'm not that full of myself. Not like that nutcase, Robyn who shows off her scripts, thinking it's the most amazing stuff ever...
He also commented on my previous homework, which was this series proposal I did for a children's show about a family adopting a robot. That's the first homework that we ever had to hand in, and he was surprised with my writing. He asked me if someone else did it for me... Come on. I might be the quiet one in class, but that doesn't mean I can't write.
Yup...I also suspect he's racist. Like no joking. And so does Jacob...
I watched Sweeney Todd on DVD the other night. Amazing. Wanna watch it again. Was listening to the songs online today with Nathan for like an hour.
We decided that from now on, every day will be muuuuusicaaal and that we'll sing every few minutes about whatever.
It'll be sweet.

Moved In

It's been a while since I posted. AHH! I just haven't had the time to figure out exactly what I wanted to post and when I wanted to post.
I've been living with Nathan and his brother Tyler for a while now. But I officially moved in yesterday. I rented a U-Haul truck and got Tyler to drive it. So they helped me move all my stuff.
Still haven't organized everything. Even they have to organize the stuff they used to keep in my room before I moved in. My room is very cosy though.
I'm meant to post a few videos up, but I haven't done that yet.
AHH
Oh yeah, on Saturday, we all went to Fred's birthday party, via Fil's apartment. There were 8 of us - me, Nate, Fil, Stephane, Jay, Shea, Stephanie and Jenevieve. That was cool. It was Stephanie's first time at Fred's apartment. I hope she enjoyed that even if she left early. The rest of us left about an hour or so later. We all took so many photos. It was the most fun I've had in a long time.
I'll post some pics up, I promise. There are some on Nathan's Facebook already.
I miss my fam. Still have to email Carla back. She wrote me a long email and it was shweet.
Can't wait til Mich comes in summer!! Love you.
