Well, I finished working as a production assistant on that movie. It was a fairly exhausting experience but I learned alot being on set. Not only did I serve as a set p.a. but I also got to do 2nd boom operating, learned how to load 35mm mags, and lastly, made my acting debut. My acting is really quite a joke as I realized when the director said "look sad... No! that looks like you're smiling!" Oh well, Maybe they'll cut me out of the movie. Since I'm not working now and still don't have a place to live, I decided to retreat to my brother's place in Tucson for a week or two. Other than that I've decided that it's about time I started devolping a feature of my own making. As part of my plans for that, I may be making a drastic relocation in the near future.

Time has been scarce since this city swallowed me. I never thought I'd work as a production assistant, a position that never felt dear to my heart, but at the end of most days I am enjoying my experience working on this feature. As for L.A., well, eccentricity collides with nolmality and in the wake thereof lies normalcy of a sorts. I think I like it but I need more time.
