Wow, it has been a long time. A whole lot has been going on, from failing a class, to weird dreams and a run in with the cops (kind of). Let’s begin.

2 months ago. I failed my first class at Full Sail. Most of you already know this but I’m going to write about it anyway. I failed my second to last month from graduating. All we do in this class is work on our demo reel (what we hand to companies to get us hired; a DVD of our best work). The material I was working on was fair and had I worked my ass off the last few days of class I could have possibly passed but I figured I’d take the class over and produce higher quality models. The thing about it now is that the teachers for some odd reason or another are taking forever to grade my work and get back to me. So I don't know if my work is good enough or not. This my friends sucks big ass because I can't move on to the next step of my project. I only have three weeks left and I need some feedback. This time around I WILL pass the class but I still may not have what I want on my reel due to the lack of grading from my teachers.

Dreams. Yeah I know I have messed up dreams and last night was a good example of one. I was in New York with Will, Alan, Frank, Melody, Juan, Mandy and a few other people. We were walking around the city and stuff and having a good time. It was late and we decided that we wanted to go to a party, so we walked around looking for one. We came across what seemed to be a large company party, with food and drinks and such. It was dark by now and the party was invitation only so we had to sneak in. while sneaking in and hiding in the corners of shadow we ran into Batman. He showed us the way in. once inside the party there were food and drinks for everyone. Somehow our clothes changed and we were wearing Hawaiian attire. Then we were walking around and no one even noticed that we were there. We fit in perfectly. Then I met some girl. She was the daughter of one of the employees of this company. We started talking and did for some time. The next thing I knew I fell asleep in her lap. I woke up and everyone was gone. The lights were out and nothing was in sight. I searched for a switch and finally found one. After the lights were on I began looking for something. I found some notes on a piece of paper. This girl had left me her phone number and a note saying something about having a great time last night. After reading the note I proceeded to walk outside. Will and the gang were outside and then I saw Mandy and I put the notes in my pocket, she asked me what they were and I told her they were nothing. Then we left, somehow ending up back at my home. Then I started to have a nightmare. I was in an abandon warehouse but in my dream I opened my eyes real wide and everything went black, then the warehouse started to come back into view. Then I opened my eyes wide again and it started to fade away. The next thing I knew, I was walking back into New York with everyone through a portal and I was like "b2 is back in New York" or something gay like that. We all went to some parade and then Frank had this metal cone. It looked like one of those things that cheerleaders yell through but it was the size of a small horn. Frank then began to play the horn somehow and it was friggin loud. I mean like three air horns loud. We were in front of a police station and frank started yelling at the cops and calling them names. It was quite amusing. The next thing I remember we were at a party again and it was at Alan's house but it wasn't Alan’s house, you know? And that girl was there. we were talking and then she tried hugging and kissing me but I was being weird about it and tried to get her to stop because Mandy was there and I didn't want her to know about us. (Mandy if you're reading this, it's just a dream, seriously, I love you and you know It. happy birthday by the way sweetie. muah*) the girl kept pushing it though and was trying to force me to kiss her and she put my head between her boobs. It was weird stuff. Then suddenly I was in blockbuster picking out a movie. It was a blockbuster that I have never been in before. I don't remember what I ended up getting but the next thing I knew I was in the movie "Franken Fish". I don' know if any of you have heard of this movie or not but it's about a mutated fish that kills people. I think it's a sci-fi original. any who. The fish killed some people and then we somehow managed to get it into some tunnel. In this tunnel there were all these cylindrical pieces of metal which contracted. Kind of like that big ass ball thing that Alan has that glows in the dark. It’s a small tightly wound ball and then you pull it open and it's a big ball and you can like stick your hand inside. Anyway. The fish went in there and then it closed on him. The fish had a face of a human and then the device began cutting him up like that horse in "The Cell". First this thing cut off a part of his face and it fell to the ground like a fine slice of ham. It continued cutting him the whole length of his body, very slowly. And that was my dream last night. Yep.

Well, I’m picking this post up from like 2 weeks ago to finish it today. Life is good. That’s it. I’ve now passed the class I previously failed and will be starting my final month at Full Sail next month (hopefully). I’ve started looking for jobs around here and there are a few options that I have. I’m going to apply at EA and see what happens there. They have a nice internship so I hear, so I’ll be looking into that as well.

Right now Mandy is sick which sux and I’m doing great. Classes end this Friday and then at 1 p.m. I will officially be on Spring Break for 9 days. Although I’ll be on SB I’ll still be going up to the school to do work for my demo reel. I want this thing to be excellent. Well, I’m off to the gym or work on some more material. I’ll talk to you all later. Much love. Oh yeah The Ring Two more like The Ring Poo.
