I really like my teachers this year at university. They're nice, very helpful, and don't bitch at you if you ask for help or suggestions or something (3 art classes.. god damn..) Working during school is hard too. That's why since I only go 4 days a week, I work the other 3, and maybe later on, I'll work a few hours after on Wednesdays or something.. though I dunno because that's the only time my two friends and I can actually spend time together, so.. we'll see. |

Most of my teachers are okay. My Bio teacher is really laid-back. My Physics teacher is pretty hands-off right now. My Economics teacher is incredible. English teacher... well, I think the class as a whole got off on the wrong foot, because we were arguing and she called us vicious (I wasn't really arguing though, just listening). Circuit Training teacher seems okay. And my Calc teacher is hysterically funny. He cracks jokes every 5 minutes or so. 3 art classes, though... that's a lot. What's your major? |

....Art.
I'm majoring in Game Art & Simulation. Minoring in Theatre. Your Calc teacher and my Stagecraft instructor are both like that.. crack jokes--that are actually funny--every few minutes.

Art? Heh, good luck. Enjoy your just-above-poverty salary, too. But if you enjoy it, that's all that really matters. Mostly. I'll probably do Psychology, but I'm not sure what. I think the approaches bent on science are really awesome (cognitive neuroscience), but on the other hand, doing social psychology would be really interesting. Only thing is, I don't know what I would do with a degree in social psychology. Kind of a dead end. I got a letter from Tulane, saying that I'm a top-priority candidate with some perks for application (no fee, automatic consideration for scholarships, etc). Is this win y/n? Still, this is my list: Tufts, Boston U, Georgetown, George Washington U, NYU, Columbia, U of Chicago, and UW. An internet friend of mine is trying to convince me to apply to Berkeley, but fuck supporting an institution that only looks out for itself (i.e., one of their "very important qualities" for admission, along with rigorous courses and test scores, is the fact that you live in CA... fucking ridiculous). Which reminds me, I have to do a rhetoric journal for Fahrenheit 451 tonight. Bleh. I'll do it later. I only get about 5 hours of sleep anyways. |

Yeah, uhh.. not quite, chica. Game designers actually make a fairly large amount of money. And apparently so do actors. |

Eh. Never mind. I think I was thinking of something else. Actors can make a lot, but only if you get pretty high up there, right? I know a couple people with acting degrees. They say it doesn't do them anything. Also, I think I blew my chance at a commercial VAing job. Ugh. I emailed the author/director and asked her what the job would be like, and also the reasoning behind voice acting for parts in our regular voices. Got yelled at. But according an insider, the pickings are slim, and she's having trouble casting. I'll be interested in seeing where this goes. I don't get why she just doesn't call a production agency, instead of posting on the interbutt an audition call. Well, we'll see... |

I think that's really awesome. I personally think it'd be awesome to be a voice actor of some sort, even though I don't really think that I have the voice to do that sort of thing (my voice isn't really deep enough to represent either the badass or the hero type, and not quite sinister-sounding enough to be the evil type. But then again, since a lot of protagonists are teenagers my voice would be perfect ). Mostly it's based off the fact that I think I can do a better job than most voice actors out there.Of course, I say this and yet I've never actually experienced that sort of thing before. I'm sure that I'd utterly fail epically if I did try because I'd be so damn nervous. Anyway, I'm really, really bored right now. Hopefully when I get to college I'll be able to party for a couple of days before classes start. I tell ya, the 25th is going to be a long night. EDIT: That blows if you screwed it up. Sorry if that's what happened. |

It does kind of blow, but I'm not going to give up yet. When the director of a commercial production is pissed, your chance is virtually zilch, but there's a slight difference here. She doesn't seem to be hiring a casting agency (which is what I would do, imho), and she's resorting to AVAs (amateur voice actors, like myself). She only has had, like, 7 auditions. And we're talking about a whole novel here, plus perhaps a sequel if she writes another one. I don't know if she knows many AVAs personally. I'm probably her closest connection, since I am pretty good online friends with one of her friends she knows IRL, and he has indeed shown her some of the work I have done. Which means a couple of things. First, I'm not sure if this thing will fly, and there is nothing worse than a disorganized project. Having the project dropped after recording all the lines sucks ass. Second, since the base is mainly AVAs, I believe, and a limited number, it could be possible to get in, even for only extras (frankly, I would prefer this the most). So, I don't know. I'll think about it. I don't like working with jerky directors, but this is commercial. I promised myself that I wouldn't do anything commercial when I started, but I don't know, I might just do this as volunteer work. As for VAing itself, I find a lot of people saying that they wouldn't be good for that sort of thing. It's kind of interesting, because out of everyone, I would probably be the most likely to be really bad at it. My natural voice sounds like a prepubescent boy with slight cracking in lower tones (or also, obviously, a teenage female geek of nothing in particular). It also does not like to vary much, whether it be tone or loudness (this is also why I'm hesitant to audition in my regular voice; she says she's not going to cast the young male character as a female because of aging). But working around with my voice, I can find some other voices I can throw out. They would be embarrassing to use in real life, but on my own time, I usually like to practice and experiment. So I don't just have a prepubescent boy's voice, but at least a few others as well. I try, at least. Still, actually trying it out really changes your whole perspective on the matter. Also, it's just fun. Takes prank calling to a whole new level, too. Eh, I wish I could learn how to sing, actually. Kind of. Just to go along with my rhythm guitar. That would be cool. I need to get new picks... I destroyed my old ones, haha. I wish I could play decent lead, but my hands are so small. Even for an electric. Well, I'll get better... Also, I hope UW goes well for you. It should be neat. I always hear such good things about college. I think I'll be visiting UW sometime, but probably not before I visit NYU, BU, Tufts, Georgetown, and George Washington U. Sometime. I also know, for sure, that I will apply there. So, who knows, I might be a Husky next year, too. We'll see. |

Well, I think I might start posting some of my puppet videos on here (just the music videos for now) just for some extra content.. Unless I make a page on the main site for them--which, I have yet to fix up because I got overloaded with a bunch of crap. >_> |

Music vids? Heh. I've seen too many for my own good. If I ever do the dubs that I intend to do, they will be epic lulz and I may post them sometime. Also, I might talk my band into doing kick-ass covers of video game music, which could also be epic. We'll have to see about it. |

These aren't AMVs. These are just random songs sang by my puppets. Lip-synced, of course. I've always wondered what it'd be like to do a cover to One Winged Angel. |

I'm kind of surprised there aren't comprehensive Guitar Pro files out for these songs. It would be kick ass if they were played with a complete band. Distorted guitars and all that. If my ears were more trained, I'd probably tab them myself. In before Kurikinton Fox. He does a pretty good job on the FF-related songs, but Ride On Sky is just god-like. |

They have a video on YouTube of the Black Mages performing One-Winged Angel Advent Children version live in concert. It was sweet, and though it was changed around a bit, it made me happy.

Two speeding tickets? Heh, how fast were you going? I can understand if it's, like, 15+ MPH, but if it's lower, then that's dumb. Of course, depending on where you live, anyone must go at least 20 MPH above the speed limit. I've never gotten any sort of ticket, but I've almost been in accidents quite a bit, whether I'm driving or not. |
