It's just this blog, you know?

After high school, I went to community college fully intending to transfer to university after I graduated with my AA. I got my AA five years ago. Then I couldn't afford to go. Then I just got a new job, so I should wait before I try to schedule school with work. Then I could almost afford it, but then my car died. Five years later, I have no job, less money than I ever did, and more determination. I applied to school back in March and was accepted. Right now I'm just waiting for the finishing touches on my student loan, and soon I can register and I will officially be back in school.

Then I realized that college is going to be so much fun, especially since I'm a film major. I'm going to have all these thoughts and stuff to write down. That's where this blog comes in. I'm going to write down my continuing adventures of continuing education. Hopefully, that includes a year in Japan. One of my goals for college is to spend a year abroad in Japan. First of all, Japan is the country of awesome. They invented video games, karaoke, sushi, anime, and Godzilla. And that's from an uninformed point of view. I do have other reasons why I want to go, but I like being superficial at times. Superficial can be fun.

A bit more about myself. I'm almost 26, I have an AA in Liberal Arts, it took me 3 years to get that because I couldn't pass biology but I was determined to finish what I started then. I'm determined to finish what I started now, which is why I'm going back to school after a 5 year hiatus. I'm majoring in Film because I was born to entertain people, but not necessarily as an entertainer. I'm a story teller. I'm good with words. I also have an overactive imagination, which means I visualize all my stories. I think some movies show the human condition, but I think some movies are just moronic fun. I like moronic fun, but I hope when I make films, the moronic fun is a cover for a story of the human condition. I'm a dork and I have a dark side.

I think I'm getting mail from my school today, and don't ask how I get mail on a Sunday. The short answer to that is I'm special. If I do and if it's of consequence, this blog will get an immediate update. Otherwise, there may be a wait period before my next update. But once school starts in seven and a half weeks, hopefully this blog will be constantly updated.

I'll post a link to my twitter in this blog, feel free to follow me.
