My Walkabout

So I woke up at ten, which was great because I hadn't been able to sleep in for the past week and a half. Took a shower and watched some Angel before leaving the dorm at 11. Stopped at chipotle and got a delicious burrito. Then got on the train and met Taylor in the
station. We crammed reading excerpts from the Canterbury tales for our class on the train. Then we split up and he went to class and I went to print put my paper. I really need to get a printer because I am always fucked when I have to print essays being one to two pages but I have to trek all the way to the library to print out one thing. Its frustrating. Anyways, print out the essay and head to class a few minutes late. But I got lucky and found out that the test I was cramming for is NEXT week.

In class my brain strayed turning to mush because the teacher just kept drowning on and on and on and on and you get the point. I just can't connect to anything about the Canterbury Tales.

After class I grabbed the film from Mike that I needed to get developed for my group project and started calling around as to where we could get it done. But because it is negative film instead of reversal film (what we normally shoot on) no one can process it for less than 80 dollars. I called every place in Manhattan and no one does negative film regularly. So even if we do decide to get it done for 80 dollars (when normally it would cost around 30 to do) we wont get the film back until sometime next week (lame.).

Being on the cell I didn't take the subway and walked from 23rd to Union Square and went to the Virgin Megastore. They are selling the HD DVD'S for 50% off and I wanted to grab for cheap. I was also gonna grab Southland Tales as well but it was too expensive. So I walked over to Best Buy and got it for less there. I decided against Atonement because I just shouldn't spend the money right now.

So after doing a big circle around Chelsae , I sat down in the Monkey Bar updated the blog and watched about half of Tales before going to my writing class.

Class went really well. We read my short script and it went over really well. The teacher didn't have any format notes for me which is good. Script formatting and execution is so easy to me. Its just the idea part that is kinda tough. After that we talked about classes and teachers for next year and I think I'm pretty set to have some great experiences next year.

So left class and got to the subway station but I had to wait like 15 minutes for a freaking train. When I got back to the dorm I watched some Office UK and some Angel while hanging up my clothes. Elias's girlfriend Sam came over and we all got drunk and watched youtube videos and played some Rock Band. I fell asleep around 2.
