Not sure if I mentioned this in before, but the orientation for film school was to be held today at 11 am, but due to circumstance this isn't going to happen. A couple of days ago, I received a call and email from Ed@trebas (lol that's what I call him) that due to the lack of enrollment the class will be postponed until June 2008.
I was REALLY looking forward to today and February 11th (the start date), but as it stands, it looks like I'll wait a little bit longer. The biggest problem, though, is my OSAP. It was set to be released on the 11th, but now that the class isn't starting until June 2008, will I have to apply all over again? Will my empoyment up to that point affect how much I receive? Sigh.
Well, all things considered things could be a lot worse :P At least I got a sweet laptop in the meantime!

You ever get the feeling that things are going to go unconventionally better than usual? As the clock here at work continues to tick towards 7:00 am, strangely I am experiencing a cautiously growing feeling of excitment and euphoria. I know it sounds like some literary exaggeration, but it isn't; I actually feel euphoric. For the life of me, I couldn't provide you with a satisfactory explanation as to why. Is there anything special planned for tomorrow? Hardly.
I was searching through craigslist yesterday (a GREAT site, btw -- you can find ANYTHING on that thing), and I discovered a whole new section: "gigs". At the end of my scouting, I had a couple of ads that seriously needed responding to. One was a talent agency looking for new acts, and the other was a distribution company looking for albums to press. I will be contacting both of these sources for obvious reasons. Yet another ad was looking for talent to perform (for free, albeit) at a small student bar/club on Wednesday nights. Something to consider. Will anything come of all this? I don't know, but I certainly hope so! Can't get the hopes up too high, I guess.
I've started to seriously shop for a laptop that would work for me. I really don't need anything top-of-the-line, that's for sure -- just something that would work for my screenwriting, blogging, and multimedia needs. I have over $1000 saved, so it won't be a problem to buy one.
I'm still very apprehensive over the imminent youth group meeting at my church. I have, however, thought long and hard over what I can say, and I've solidified my philosophy. I'll make sure to chronicle how it goes during the aftermath.
