Okay, working 2 jobs really sucks. It's not even so much the hours, because when I'm on a film set, it's long crazy hours, but there truly is a difference between doing what you love and doing what you have to do to survive. There is also an end in sight. Right now things life they're never going to get better. Don't get me wrong, I'm grateful to be employed, but I think there are better ways to go about doing it. I'm also lucky, considering the different call lines I could have landed on, the xbox line is going to be pretty cake.
In the meantime, I submitted my script, JAL to the Nichols Fellowship. Winning that would be spectacular, and I would love to win, but I'll settle for landing in the quarter or semi finals. It would be a huge boost to my career. I've also been writing my application for the Sundance Labs. It's taken so much longer than I had hoped, but it's definitely a good thing that I started already. It's not one that waiting till the last possible date will work, they want you really work for it. There are a couple of other contests that I want to enter, so we'll just have to see.
Once the Sundance Lab application is done, it's time to go back to Confessions. The next production meeting will be on Saturday and then a conference call on Sunday. I can't believe how things are coming together. It's going to be nice to prove everyone wrong who didn't believe in me and show than just what I'm capable of doing.
I keep repeating to myself, everything is perfect just the way it is right now. And it is. The motivation for change is pretty overwhelming right now.
