Entry Nineteen

I think things are going to get better for me soon, hopefully.
I handed in one essay yesterday and now I'm writing my 2nd one (well haha, I'm "taking a break" at the moment). Also, I got some other stuff done too which was kinda good... I'm getting there... Slowly...
Although, I still have a lot more to get done before the end of the semester. Hmm

Just on a side note, I might be getting braces and eventually having jaw surgery. Although, I'm not sure if I will or not yet, but I feel it's something that I want to do (and have been thinking about for many years now)

I can't help myself, I have to talk about the Mystery Channel.
It really is turning out more and more like "LOST", I'm actually watching "LOST" right now, just randomly.
I suppose with their blog up and running it does make things more interesting, but that is, at the same time, just as frustrating because 1. I personally don't have the time to sit around and figure it all out, although I wish i did haha and 2. because I'm in a different time zone to everyone else there are already like a million comments with people writing the same things that I was thinking before I even get a chance. Oh well... It is all just a game I suppose.
I really want to post a theory video though, but I kinda feel like everything I'm thinking everyone already knows, or other people have already discussed similar things on the blog and I would just be repeating it to people...

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

ok that's all I have to say for now.

Entry Eighteen

Ok, So...

I'm actually really frustraited with the whole Mystery Channel thing, like, it was kinda exciting and stuff at first, but I duno, now it's just kinda become really boring and annoying. All the videos are the same with the same stupid hidden messages that you have to go back and freeze and then still watch the stupid video another 5 times to catch what it says, and then once you know what it says it still doesn't make any sense because its all a bunch of stupid random letters like: BM WR ZC RY XV GJ S K K WR BM FH WR
...WTF...
I think it's also partly from frustration of just not knowing what's going on and the whole process of whatever they're doing taking so long.
I have a feeling I'm going to be booted from it soon anyways...If they even do that kinda thing.

Guh, and in the mean time I have things that are actually WORTH worrying about... Sigh, I can't wait till this stupid semester is over, I hate the project I'm doing now, its just turned into complete crap and I'm probably going to get a really bad mark for it, but I think I've gotten to the point where I just don't even care anymore, as long as I pass I don't care what my mark is.

Its so weird, people I semi know keep coming up to me and saying they've seen me on youtube, like people from Uni or people from work or people I used to go to school with. It's actually really annoying, like I swear at least one person each day has come up to me and said that they've seen me on youtube... there where 2 people today at work. Sigh...
It's also funny because I also keep getting messages from random people who've seen my videos messaging me saying they've seen me around the city. New Zealand is too small for youtube.

If you've not heard it already I suggest you go listen to "Black and Gold" by Sam Sparro, do it now!

Entry Sixteen

I'M SICK!!!

:'-( I think I'm getting a cold...My throat really hurts and I keep sneezing!
I'm kinda hoping that I'm really sick tomorrow so that I don't have to go to work, but then I wouldn't get paid... hmm...
I'm just so exhausted all the time. It sucks.
I can't wait for the end of this semester...
But before then I have to write two 2000 word essays, a photography assignment, a design assignment (and after all that) an exam for my contemporary film class which, f.y.i., is NOT as fun as it sounds.

GUH!!! I wish I was graduating this year, but I still have 2 more years after this one :'-( lame lame lame lame lame

Oh well, C's get degrees...

Entry Fifteen (HUMAN TRAFFICKING!)

Well yesterday I got my new assignment for my Studio (Art) class and we have to do a collaboration work with someone else in our group. So Me and this other girl in my group decided to work together and we where talking about how we would want to do a design project, then I started talking about something I have been thinking about for the last couple weeks; Human Trafficking.

(Just if you didn't know, Human trafficking is where children, girls and boys, in poor places are sold, stolen, or tricked into becoming slaves and prostitutes by people taking advantage of their situations)

So we have decided to do an art design project to raise awareness about Human Trafficking, not just in the world, but also how there are cases of it in New Zealand (and other Western Countries) which I don't think many people know about.

We are going to make posters and stick them up all around town. We are also thinking about making t-shirts that people would buy and then the money from that would go to an organization that is involved in trying to stop human trafficking. As well, we are going to try get our designs etc into the University magazine (not just out University but hopefully others as well).
I is going to be a lot of work for the both of us, especially because in terms of the assignment we only have 6 weeks to do it in, and still have four final works (each?) to be marked...

Our first step is going to be trying to collect as much information about human trafficking, so if you are reading this blog and know of any good books/websites/organizations/contacts that we could get hold of that would be really helpful.

We are also going to start a blog to document each stage of our project.

I will probably make a youtube video about sometime too...

I really hope it goes well...and if you or anyone you know could help in some way that would be really awesome

Entry Thirteen

It's embarrassing that I am wondering how to spell the numbers in my title as they get higher...

So, it's been a while,
I've just handed in a HUGE project, and an essay...So I'm feeling pretty good at the moment,
although, I now have to write ANOTHER essay for a different paper, which I really don't want to do, but it's worth 40% of my mark for that class...
So I better do it, and I better do it well.

I think it's funny how there are so many circles of groups on YouTube and you can often feel like a social butterfly as you become more involved in one group or another.
At the moment I feel like I am involved in maybe one or two...maybe three groups of people, and then I feel like i'm on the out skirts of other groups...I don't know, its just very funny.
I think it also depends a lot on how much time you put in to talking to people and staying in contact. When I was still on holiday it was a lot easier to keep in contact with people, but now that I'm back at Uni, it's a lot harder...hmm (oh and just if you where wondering, I know this kinda thing happens in real life too).

I'm really looking forward to this weekend because I'm going to see the movie "Across The Universe" which i've been wanting to see for a very long time now. Then after I'm going to this bar called "Shadows" to see my friends band play! Then after that (other than work and writing my stupid essay) I have the whole next off! YAY mid-semester break!! It kinda sucks because of easter being early this year its only 1 week instead of 2, but to me, any break is wonderful!!!
