i'm so LA right now.
eating chinese food.
production meetings in pajamas.
hanging out at famous people's houses.
laptop parties.
watching tom make 1,000 phone calls.

basically doing nothing but feeling really productive because the people around me are being productive.

thanks, sister breedlove
for sending me a letter that said what i needed to hear
and only what i needed to hear.
always to the point, that girl.

Go see How to Train Your Dragon.

just do it.

I saw it in 2D and I probably recommend that, because it's breathtaking enough without the spectacle. I went with a friend who has seen it six times and is still madly in love with it, so you know it's got to be good (or he's crazy, one of the two, but I'll go with the former).
And I want a pet dragon. Sooo cute for a large scaly beast. All the characters have amazing facial expressions.

I'm listening to the soundtrack right now and it's wonderful.

sometimes i get ideas in my head and then i sort of go obsessive until i make them happen or find something else to be obsessed about.

one of those is getting candy j. smith to move out here this summer.
the other is going to LA this weekend.

life is a myyyyysterrrrrrry.

madonna is the current obsession.
it started with jeff constantly playing the songs in class and talking about how madonna has inspired his life.
then the last glee episode about how madonna is the perfect example of a powerful woman.

so naturally when we picked up lady di at midnight at the airport i lept onto a bench and belted like a prayer at her from across the street.

glee is exactly what i imagine being addicted to drugs is like. i know it's not good for me, but i can't give it up.


i sort of hate this transition period at the end of the semester where a lot of fabulous people are leaving me.
but i am also excited about the new/returning people that are popping up.

but you gotta have friiiiiiiends.

sometimes life feels like this:

when really it's like this:

once Phil told me I was Liz Lemon.
the more 30 Rock I watch, the more I realize he's right.

something i stole from facebook

They like to pretend like I'm the only filmmaker in my family. But here's the proof I'm not.



Tyler Wayne circa 2004.
Music by cousin Lincoln Smith.

i constantly thank the Lord for bringing people into my life who say exactly what i need to hear exactly when i need to hear it.

strangers and friends alike, i'm grateful for you all.


along with this, i love the moments where you know exactly what to do to make someone's day. even if it's something that takes you all of ten seconds. like making my makeup teacher a label (with the label maker that i, naturally, fell in love with) that said, "DO NOT STEAL JANETS THINGS" and she proceeded to talk about it to everyone who came by.

post-production makes me want to chew my arm off.
