Tips on worsening your insomnia #4: Make a film.

After yet another long, dry silence from my end, here's another useless post about how to up your bouts of Chinese eyes, nail biting and cephalgic dauntings.

I would start this off with the generic 'What, you ask, could possibly make my lack of sleep any worse?!' however the answer lays right before your eyes in plain helvetica- right up there, in the title bar; Make a film. Not one out of personal choice, though. No, not one simply compiled by love and free time. I mean one that your summer relies upon. One that will be the determining factor between whether or not you get referrals, whether or not you get promoted to the next year of your course, whether or not another polar bear shall die. Excuse the embarrassing bursts of melodrama, it is, however, 3 am and I am nowhere near done.

Items in tonight's checklist:

-Write a covering letter, career plan and curriculum vitae for a beloved local tele presenter. Sarcasm? Never.

-Complete a production folder which, despite having a week's long extension, I still have not even bothered looking at.

-Edit a few scenes, fix the script mark-ups, log sheets and story boards. Thankfully, Premiere Pro CS6 works in a considerably smoother way than its predecessors, else I might have had to resort to smashing my brand new laptop. A plan which, if I may speak frankly - and I know I can do just that, I am not profoundly keen on.

Did I mention that I got a kitten?
Kitten comes complete with a good read and some interesting tunes.  Batteries not included. Terms and Conditions apply. Kindly ask bill payer's permission before indulging in strawberry fields and glass onions.

I leave you with this, and with this I leave you.

Day 11- Remember me.

While I find it hard to admit, I feel I must share- I've actually watched all of Robert Pattinson's films. Well, not all. I refuse to watch Twilight. And talking about Twilight, can you believe that they're splitting the final one up into two parts?! What were the producers thinking?! Twilight is not like Harry Potter. You can't just divide it into two segments. It lacks that believable magic, that 'awesomeness' if you will, that the latter so clearly brings forward.

OH! I finally also watched Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows- Part II. Beautifully worked I must say. And despite most of the film lacking 'happy thoughts' of any sort, the ending did bring back memories of The Philosopher's Stone which is why I am attaching Hedwig's Theme to this post. What's special about this version of it is that it's played in a smorgasbord of ways and the pianist's fingers move as though they're being controlled by 5 brains and a half simultaneously.

Amazing, I tell you!

Anywho, I'm finally going home to sleep! Hazzahhh!! I hope you enjoy the video and all.
