chop off your hair, ma'am!

gonna chop my hair off tomorrow. I mean, today, because it's 2am. awesome.

Let's see, updates...
1. going to minneapolis saturday/sunday to look at places to live... spending some quality time with my mom before I ship off for two years.
2. my birfday is monday! I also happen to be directing a commercial that day. in the morning. after (probably) hours of dancing. uh oh!
3. I am working on a really cool iPhone app for my interface design class... it's essentially twitter, personals, facebook and urbanspoon but for bars... i swear it's not quite as creepy as it sounds.
4. two papers left in my college career until I NEVER HAVE TO WRITE A PAPER EVER AGAIN.
5. i'm addicted to biking. again.
6. random: it went from 80 to 50 degrees in the past 6 hours. crazy!

I'm going to regret posting this...

But here's my first ever non-clay/stop animation. you can tell I worked really hard on the first 45 seconds and then it trails off when I ran out of time before it was due.

Really looking forward to redoing large chunks of it though! I also have some really cool claymation and traditional animation stuff coming up as part of my final due in June...

it would be good to update more...

yes, it would.
update:
I did indeed get into Miami Ad School. I am so excited it's slightly unbearable at the moment. I have 5 weeks left of school and the amount of homework (not all the good kind... often papers which are not my forte) is inundating since I am taking an extra class. I'm honestly a bit terrified I won't graduate, written stuff is not my forte.

BUT. Soon. creative homework, always! I can't wait for the day when my moleskine doesn't have academic homework in it. No more notes from my jumbled mind in lecture halls filled with 150 kids, some sleeping. Just.... ideas. sketches. I can't wait.

ALSO, soon, obviously, I am moving to Minneapolis. I am apartment-hunting during memorial day weekend. Got a few places to look at, some are even houses that need roommates. After living in a basement for so long in a studio set up it'll be nice to have roommates, though I never thought I'd hear myself say that.

currently:
watching "The Reader"
reading ihaveanidea.org
wanting some screenprinting paint and a new laptop
dreaming about 2nd year abroad in Hamburg
wondering how to find energy to graduate
in need of better weather for more biking
optimistic about optimism

the updates may come off as sort of random but they should be more frequent.
