i kind of want to apply for a position at cinevegas for volunteer manager. i'm not sure my brother would appreciate me crashing on his couch for two months. hmmm.

i'm exhausted. i could sleep for a week. but, i had the best week and met some amazing people. now, i will begin the withdrawal symptoms that arrive post-festival. thank you to everyone that made my week amazing, and i can't wait to see you again. by the way, john nemec gives great hugs. kathryn lasater knows how to get down. the tech crew can rock some sick 'staches. and everyone involved is simply amazing! i love my sxsw family.

i'm thinking it's really bad for me to be boy crazy during sxsw. i can see no good coming from this state of being. however, i see a lot of fun in my future.

do you ever just make yourself stay awake even though you know your body is exhausted? like you are looking for that secret, something magic, but you know it's not there. not tonight.

my cat is sleeping between my legs under the covers right now. that is what i call undying love. i will let her get away with anything and she will forever be my cuddle monster.

i'm thinking about transferring over to tumblr. is that wrong to mention on blogger? i feel like i'm about to get caught cheating.

i can't stop listening to this song by the temper trap called "sweet disposition."

i need to bring this blog back to what it's all about. creativity. art. photo. film. passion. love. sharing. music. beauty. sunny days. living and loving life to it's fullest. not sweating the small shit, the number one lesson i always ALWAYS forget. you only live once and if you forget how to live, what are you doing here?

luck is when opportunity meets preparation. get out there and start preparing. words i need to listen to and start living by. i'm wasting away sitting in my house penniless when i could be penniless and taking photos. elementary, my dear watson.

however, i really want a hand-held mini-video camera. maybe i can bust out the old school konica and make some really low-grade videos...ideas, ideas, ideas.

tomorrow, kite festival. be there or be L7 (square).
