Mood: Fantastic
[btw, I posted this in the Halloween thread, so if it seems familiar… But I have added more to this too.]
Anyways, I have found something better than Trick-or-Treating.
Something better than stealing candy from a baby.
Almost as great as chocolate.
And this would be performing infront of a crowd of thousands.
Yep. We had our last performance last night and came in 5th in finals (12 made finals, 40 in the competition). All us band kids were bummed because we had to miss the traditional Halloween, but after that performance, we didn’t regret it anymore. We loved it and everyone had a blast. Our colorguard also got best colorguard, beating out a school who 1) Always wins, and 2) Has their show centered around their colorguard. But it was a drag when our director told us that the colorguard score didn’t count in ranking. But still, we won (:
And, we got sunburned. Which is really, usually, hard to do on the last day of October. I think it got up into the 90s and the last time that happened was back at the end of August. Yeah. But it was about 50 degrees when we performed, so the temperature dropped fast after the sun dissapearead.
And then Daylight Savings Ended, which gave me a lot of time to sleep, and then waking up “early”. Before noon infact
But man, it feels great to have time back.

I talked to by Digital Graphics teacher about finding an internship at the end of the school year, because I need to have a “Technology-related” internship to graduate with a certificate for this 4-year program I am in.
He said he has connections with people in our SIP (Student Internship Program) and connections to some studios in the area. One of them being Reel FX (reelfx.com/launch.html) Who has done some work with DreamWorks and BlueSky, mainly in bonus features and menus, I think they have done some actual movie work though, but still. If I get my internship there, and depending on how long I stay, and how great I become at the end of the year in Maya, I could have my name in the credits.
8 months to go.
