May First
It is May 1st. How the heck did THAT happen??? Last night was a wonderful way to end April...I got to see my FAVORITE band ever ever..The Avett Brothers. They rocked it... as per usual. People...please listen to this amazingly beautiful song about family: (I know the quality is crappy, but it's not recorded yet)
I mean wow...can they write, or can they write? I cried last night at the last line of this song, "always remember, there is nothing worth sharing like a love that lets us share our name." Family has meant so much to me lately...including my friendships that are as close as blood.

In other news...I would like to update everyone on my NY Resolutions. It seems about time for a report. If you'll remember, I made two resolutions:
1- Don't buy any clothes or shoes (as to fight against materialism)
2- Get serious about my career (as to not waste away in la-la land)
Number one is going well. I have bought a few things, but they have all been necessities, such as new soccer cleats (because mine were ruined) and new snowboarding boots (because I changed my bindings last year and they didn't work with my old boots). Also, I have decided that if I get gift cards, it is OK to use them to buy things. I feel less materialistic and I have saved money. Score.
My career resolution looks different than I imagined it. I wanted to jump into learning new software so I'd be more versatile as an editor/producer/graphic designer/shooter. I have done that a little. But more importantly, I have learned that honing my skills on the software I already know will aid me more. I have also decided to really stick to editing. I don't need to be a jack of all trades. Editing is my love...why am I trying to add a huge list to "things I do"? So that's what I'm doing...editing...and getting better at it. Also, I've gotten a lot of freelance work the last couple months from some cool companies. It all feels right and good and I'm just saying, keep bringing it.
So May 1, 2008. Wow.
