I love this time of year. It's almost halloween XD

I only have one thing really to rant about and that's that I haven't been paid, when I was supposed to be paid on the 24th, because the woman I was working with is unreliable and she didn't give my slip in. Well I've learned, next time I'm gonna go straight to HR and hand it in as soon as I'm about to leave for the bus. That way, this can't happen again.

I'm going to see Saw 3D with Dale on Saturday so I'm looking forward to that. Finally, get to see an 18 at the cinema, which was why I wanted to be 18 in the first place.

Can't get season 5 of Supernatural yet :( ... Which has upset me somewhat cos I was really looking forward to getting that. But I'll get it in a couple of weeks so...Just means I have something to look forward to for longer :)

Found an adorable song that was on the soundtrack for the supernatural episode "Heart" from Season Two. It's during the bit where Sam has to kill Maddison right at the end, and everyone cries :( Really sad, but a really good song.
It's called Silent Lucidity by Queensryche.

I haven't written in a while so I'm trying to think of what has happened since then. I'm gonna be in a magazine :) SciFiNow, issue #49 which I think is January's issue, back page for being obsessed with Supernatural XD

College is going great. I had my 1:1 with Mary on Friday and it was really good. We set a target of one hour a day homework at least, but apart from that (and trying to use material other than Supernatural :P), she said I was doing really well and she was really pleased with my work XD

I think the only one I'm doing particularly bad at at the moment is Science. It's not so much that I'm doing bad at it, it's just that it's a lot to take in in a short space of time. I mean, college GCSE courses cram a two year course into one year, day time GCSE students get I think it's like 5ish hours a week for their GCSE.
Adult evening courses, you get two hours a week and that's it.
So a two year GCSE Biology course, crammed into one year at two hours a week is VERY stressful.

But I have the book that goes with it now so I'll just read it and then re read it and then copy it out. Hopefully, that'll make me remember everything.

I've been taking little videos of everything on my phone, but I'm gonna start using mum's digital camera, cos I can't get the videos from my phone on my computer, whereas I know for a fact the mums camera will.
I'm gonna do little videos everyday and then make a little film.

I have to redo my script, AGAIN! Because mum got me a screenwriting book and it says that I'm not supposed to write the camera shots in to it because that's the directors job.
Which doesn't matter in this case cos I am the director, but when you send it to a producer, it's just supposed to be the story, which means essentially I've gotta write two, one with the story and dialogue and another the same but with camera shots as well.

People don't really get how much truly goes into making a film until they try doing it.
I mean, pre-production alone. Just writing the fucking story! I mean, I've been working on Dead House for nigh on five years, if not more, and the story itself still isn't finished yet.
That's without the actual set concepts, monster research, character profiles, camera angles, and all the rest of it.
But, working on Dead House, even though it's a lot of hard work, even now, I know that I'm making the right career choice. I honestly can't see myself doing anything else.

Anyways, speaking of, I should probably do some work lol :P

have a spooky halloween!!!
