i feel like crap... woke up 5.30am this morning to find the roof leaking... a stupid rat or possum had chewed through the water pipe... left at 7am to go to the Australian Film, Tv and Radio School... the lecture started at 9.15am... got there at 7.45am 'cos didn't know how long it would take me but i'm glad i left early... Got there and missed the traffic so that was good... Met with one of my old lecturers there... and "networked" with a few industry people...
A wierd setting today... everyone at that lecture was OLD... n most of them have been in the industry for a few years 'cos u could tell they knew what they were talking about... unlike me... it was a lecture on Producing for Interactive TV... so it was all about digital... smsTV... Well... seems like Britian's leading in this...although i have to admit that some of the programmes were pretty cheesy..so much to learn... i feel so... USELESS now... all those jargons...
It was a long day... one speaker after the other, with 15mins break every 2hrs or so... left at 4... couldn't be bothered stayin for the last session 'cos i was already drifting off... feet and back was aching and i wanted to miss the traffic home... got home in 45mins... if i stayed for the last session, probably would have taken me 1hr 30mins to get home 'cos just as i was leaving the main major road, traffic started to build... and that stretch can be pretty bad! My old lecturer was only 10mins away from the building at normal time but it took her 30mins to get there because of traffic... USED A 1\4 of a tank of fuel... Wonder how much the last quarter will last me... hopefully till the end of next week? don't see myself going anywhere besides college...
Just had a thought earlier today too.. i'm probably the least sociable person in college... never good at party scenes... always busy doing something and filling my time with work... Shit... Research paper starts this term... thought I was gonna research on Lomo cams... but after today's lecture... think i might research on iTV... n IPTV... something that will be useful to me... not just a leisure thing...
Hayden came over for dinner... we had pizza n ice cream... I REALLY NEED TO GO BACK TO EATING HEALTHY... sigh... wished he could stay longer... the night i feel "sociable" i've got no one to be sociable with... so here i am sitting by my lone self... typing and having a whinge...
been so busy all week i think i might have pushed myself a bit too far now...
I've got a back pain running all the way down to my leg... and i'm a wee bit tired and emotional... SO DUN STEP ON MY TOES OR I'LL BIT...
no one to step on my toes anyway... 'cos i'm alone in my room...
Mothers' DAy this sunday... and i'm far far away frm home...
hate it when i feel so lousy... this tank of petrol better last me the week or i'm not going to be happy... IF ONLY THE WORLD RAN ON KINDNESS AND NOT MONEY... life would be better and there wouldn't be all this added stress... don't like the looks of my account... wished i could work and get some money but don't know how the "heaven" i'm supposed to fit it in...
Shoot for Hayden in the studio tomorrow.. he's recording his EP...
Oh well... i better stop writting here before i start to babble more crap... and talk myself into feeling worse...
