Mission Accomplished

February 4, 2007 Jenn 3 Comments

Thanks to and , my first class of Spring 2007 went wonderfully. Thanks, guys, for allowing me to literally crash your home and your Friday night plans. 😳 Since class let out early Friday night, we went to IHOP and I definitely owe Jesse a meal of his choice next time I see him. It was deeeelish. Class itself went amazingly smooth and though I have a ton of work due next meeting (March 16th), it’s all personal reaction type assignments and I’ll have fun finishing them. The one thing that won’t be as fun is making an audio tape of a mock-therapy session. I always hate to tape things because it forces me to admit I’ve regained my accent in full. Ugh.

On a completely different note, my vid program continues to be a pain, but I can say with confidence that I’ll finish my first “Heroes” vid this week. I’m really REALLY liking it so far. Yay!!!

Stay warm, everyone! :cold:

First of all, Heroes owns. It just does. To have Eccleston (who will probably never be referred to by his character’s name) say, “Fantastic!” was brilliance. Just as I was starting to yell, “Stop showing Claire; no one cares!” they went and got me interested in her again. Damn. In a good way.

In the next three weeks, I will be venturing to the big city of Charleston for class two times and the State ACT conference once. I should get an EZ-Pass and a sublet. Heh. Hopefully, I’ll get to see my Chas buddies a little while I’m in town. The class weekends will be rough, though, because I’ll be getting up at 4:30am, working until I make the 3 hour drive to Charleston, sitting in class until 10:30pm and then going back Saturday for more class from 8am-6pm. Ugh. Hopefully, one more semester and I’ll be finished.

I think I’ll get to bed early tonight. I forgot to turn my alarm clock on after yesterday’s snowday and had I not had a hungry Hobbit waking me up, I may have slept the whole day away. Thanks, Hob!! :love:

Then Again . . .

So I said to myself, “Self?” I said, “Next snow day you’re going to make a vid.” That was before made her mindblowing MirrorMask vid and did the unthinkable and made a One Tree Hill vid that I loved (having never seen the show)! After spending two hours clipping THE FIRST EPISODE of Heroes, I’ve decided that since I only marginally liked the song I was using, I’m staying on hiatus for a bit longer. I really need to listen to more music. I love vidding, but when there’s no song, there’s no vid, and I’ve already used every song I like. Arrgh.

So my number one recommendation is to check out the two vids I mentioned because I can tell you, watching those is a helluva lot easier than making one, and 100x more enjoyable.

I’m getting reeeealy tired of bogus weather forecasts. For the last week, we were promised lots of snow. What did we actually receive? Near nothing. Oh sure, we got a little excited and got to go home 2 hours early on Thursday, but in actuality, we could have stayed with no problem. We got a 2 hour delay on Friday, but that was more of a “wind-chill delay” because there sure as heck wasn’t any snow causing any problems.

Unless we get a ton of :flake: tonight, I bet we don’t get any kind of work reprieve tomorrow. I don’t think I’d mind so much if the forecast didn’t keep calling for snow. Grrrr.
