just the little things VI
Let’s recap, shall we? :)
Friday night I went to a shindig at my friend Paula’s apartment! She lives in the hippie district and her apartment is so ideal. The best kind of hole-in-the-wall :) Her friends were all really nice. Some of them got drunk off their asses, a few were on some sort of drug that really fucked them up. Attractive. I brought Elyse and Brittany with me and they had a great time. I was so glad they could come! Paula and Elyse actually have some mutual friends (they hang out at the same bar and cafe) so Elyse practically found her usual crew there haha.
I knew about 5 people, but that just made me all the more social. I drank AriZona Iced Tea the whole night, I was one of two sober people (to my understanding). The other sober person was this cool kid from Turkey. He taught me how to say Good Day, Good Night, I Want Chinese Food and I Love You (the important ones, duh) in Turkish. I vaguely remember bits of each phrase but not the specifics. He was really quiet the whole night and I asked him if he’s a pretty shy person. He said no, that he’s not shy or quiet at all it’s just his English and that he’s actually really funny in Turkey. His English isn’t terrible it is just very limited. He was really cool to chat with.
Brittany, however, is HILARIOUS drunk. All her questions are shouted and she’s deliriously happy about the littlest things. Turkish Boy wore a shirt that had three skulls with a cloud on either side and Brittany was so excited to name them all. The clouds were Dave and Manuel, and the skulls were Jacobi, Marguerite and Fernando. His shirt was very hispanic, apparently.
It was quite difficult to get up and out to workshop at 9:20 the next morning. I haven’t gotten less than 6 hours of sleep in a couple weeks now, so that 4-hour sleep time was intense haha. I went to another workshop right after and didn’t get back to the dorm until about 3:30. I took a bath and fell asleep on my bed until about eight, ate dinner and crashed again in my jeans until ten the next morning. Like woah. Haha.
Monday I helped my roommate with a project. She needed to do photo storyboards for her final project, a silent film called “The Exchange”. The past week and a half we had been trying to find a guy to play her male lead, since she had the three other characters she needed. So I had to help with the hunt for my romantic counterpart. I had asked a few friends, as she had, with no luck. I randomly ran into Dylan after lunch sometime that weekend and asked if he would/could. He say yes! So finally we had a male lead. We shot on Monday. Ionia and I probably told Dylan thank you a total amount of fifteen times haha. Here are the closing (and my favorite) shots:

Dylan was super grossed out by the cocktail sauce Ionia used for blood, he hates any relation to seafood in any form. He was a good sport though. Ionia and Megan even bought him a shirt from Ross but he said they could use his grey one. So Saturday when we shoot he’ll be getting chocolate sauce on it, since the actual film will be in black and white. :) Click to enlarge!
Classes have been going well for the most part. For my final project I have to choose an object for my inspiration, and draw it. I have an item I like but I’d have to alter the colors because the scheme is too similar to my textiles color story. I am very excited for both projects but I know I will cry myself to sleep every night haha. *sigh*
