FILMING!


Okay, so I am doing a duplicate post, but that's just because I am a lot tired and have a little too much to drink (like everyone else here).

WE STARTED FILMING THIS WEEKEND!!!

Okay well not so much filming as we are in pre-production, but basically we are starting!! OMG I am so excited.

This year has been ... well BLAH!

So, somewhere within in the next 10 weeks we will be getting all the bugs worked out and the scripts finalized and then come May - BAM! Light Camera and the Fun begins!

There are a couple different ways it can go, but as it looks now, musical, it look like it's in the lead. I really thought it was going to be another horror, but with us, it's never predictable. Some depends on Davers, and we are waiting to see what his schedule will allow (which could force and very fast reworking and change of everything.) But whatever happens happens! It wouldn't be the same if we weren't flying by the seats of our pants.

The only thing I'm really concerned about is getting through these next 10 weeks of Hell (which I willingly walked into). But, without hardship we would have no character. So, I'm really pushing to see it through. I'm lucky in that I get a break every year from Hell - where so many don't - but it doesn't make my struggles any less worthy or hard to me personally. I think we can all say that about something. It's hard, but I try to really be grateful for what I have and then deal with what is thrown at me.

Anyway, tonight we sit down for the first official "inking" period after the first brainstorming session of the new project. There are various types of drinks, and lots of ribs a-cooking.

Trudging On

There are only 2 more weeks to get through - 2 weeks & 4 tests - but 2 weeks until 9 days off. I am totally going home and doing ... anything I damn well please! I can't tell you just how excited I am to do this. 

Then it'll be back here, but only for like 9 more weeks. 1 of those is exam weeks, so 8 weeks. And the 8th week, two of my profs were nice and decided to give us two exams that week to break up our 13 classes, so we aren't tested on all of them in one week. Then it's 4 months and I don't have to see this place. And that's a great big YAY!
