Day # 12 Another Commute Video

Filmed my commute again, from a different angle this time. Then I opened Premiere AND After Effects when I got home. Still nothing overly fancy, but I did a little (very little) editing this time. Basically, I’m slowly blowing the cobwebs out of the video part of my brain.

Day # 11 Commute (video)

I really can’t complain about my commute. It’s like 10 mins. I know I have it good, but I thought I would compress it down just to see what it would be like if my commute was 90 seconds. It’s sad that it takes so much to produce so little when it comes to video, and the big feat here is that I have owned Premiere for a year now and this is the first time I’ve opened it…I had some codec issues to over come before I even got started, so even though it does seem like much, it was big for me.

Boy, it sure would be nice if we had some grenades, don't you think?

This is really depressing...I didn't get very far at all last month.

1. Drink more water
Boy, I'm thirsty

2. Keep Leaky Light alive
Click, click...nope...

3. Increase my take home income by $6000 this year
:P

4. Be the lady that would accompany that gentlemen to that party
Let's just laugh here.

5. Read 12 books in a year
Oh holy hell...who has time to read...

6. Watch 36 movies in a year
Yay! One I can say I worked on. End of July put me at 28. You can check out what have seen so far at http://spoiling-it.blogspot.com

7. See 100 movies in 100 days
It's official. This goal is being laid to rest in the cemetery of broken dreams. I just can't see myself getting it done right now, and I want it to be fun, I don't want to push it. So I think I am going to take the ambition of this goal and apply to the above mentioned goal. Maybe I will change the above number from 36 to 50 or something...we'll see.

8. Complete a printed family recipe book

9. Start a novel

One, I worked on one goal last month...why did I even bother to post this...oh yeah so I could post the Serenity quote and The Words movie trailer.

It's Saturday. Technically I'm a day and a half early.

I love ze. He says and does all the things I would love to say and do. Anyway he has does a number of good episodes on his new show, but this new one I really like :)

And now for my goals...lets see how May worked out for me.

1. Drink more water
Maybe I need someone to define "more" for me. I am drinking water, I just don't think I am drinking "more" water.

2. Keep Leaky Light alive
Yay! I got three or four posts up on Leaky Light last month. You can check them out at http://leakylight.blogspot.com

3. Increase my take home income by $6000 this year
I did get a raise at work, but it doesn't equate to ^ this...so I still need work on this one.

4. Be the lady that would accompany that gentlemen to that party
I think I am moving in the wrong/opposite direction for this one.

5. Read 12 books in a year
:X

6. Watch 36 movies in a year
I am up to 20. So I am still on schedule. You can check out what have seen so far at http://spoiling-it.blogspot.com

7. See 100 movies in 100 days
Yeah, I just don't see this one happening. It was ambitious from the start and I knew it. If things at work don't settle done, I just won't have time to do this.

8. Complete a printed family recipe book
:X

9. Start a novel
:X

10. Start an etsy store
:X

11. Renew my passport
:P

12. "Whatever You Think, Think The Opposite"

13. Learn to meditate

Argo!

I went to see Dark Shadows last night and there was a trailer for the new Ben Affleck movie called Argo. First, can I say I am SO excited to Ben Affleck back in the movies (directing and acting). Second, this movie looks like it is going to rock. I love the whole idea behind it and when you take into account that it is based on actual events, I just don't think it can get much better. The only short fall, I think we have to wait until October to see it.

#24 Just Not Feelin' It Video

I wanted to do an art video as one of my projects. This is far from what I planning on doing. But with my lack of motivation I think it turned out okay. If you can’t see the video let me know. My youtube setting are a little funny :)
