Hello beautiful readers. Don't think I've forgotten about you. Because I haven't, and I very much love you, all of you. The very few who may remember to read this blog, the ones who stumble across it out of nowhere, and the ones that have come and found this from the future. Thanks for stopping by. Patrick, I wonder if you look up your old students' blogs. I do miss SIT..
This blog is probably going to be one of those "update blogs" because it's really only been a few months since the end of my last semester. So yes. I've moved back home and am living with my parents, for now. I'm currently sitting in our sleep-out of which I've kind of stolen and made it my "workspace". By workspace I mean I've stuck my TV in it and I bring my laptop out here when I want to do stuff in the peace and quiet. It gets a bit too warm during the day, but it has a desk, so I suppose that's something.
I'm still planning to move to Wellington, to be closer to the creative and cultural folk and atmosphere there. It might help me, for reasons I'll explain later on. To start with, if things go well, I'll move in with my aunt. I've mentioned before, and people would have probably realised, I'm terribly shy around people I don't know. So, the plan is, get to know some people in Wellington OR wait for people I know from SIT to move to Wellington (I know there's at least four of you that have expressed the idea of moving there... e_e), and then totally hint at them about being flatmates and then move in with them. So yes. That's my grand plan for Wellington. I'll find a job, and filmie stuff, and I will have FUN and I will be HAPPY.
Slowly but Surely I've been adapting the story of Ko's World into a screenplay. There's about 27 pages in it so far, and it's not all written up yet. So that's been happening. I've been a bit off the grid for a couple of months, because summer holidays and people go away and do stuff. I've been away with my family for some of it, and then away with a friend for more some of it. Just exploring New Zealand, really.
Although, my self confidence and motivation for anything has taken a dive again. When I had assignment deadlines and the like, I would do stuff for that, but now I'm free to do what ever I want. But it's strange. I want to finish writing Ko's World. I want to write more episodes for Cat Kids. And I want to write more Chino stories and turn them into comics, even though I'm really not that good at drawing. But there are voices inside my brain that tell me that I'm not good enough for anything, so why should I even bother? It drives me insane, and it just makes me feel really, really sad. I'm forcing myself to write these things, by doing a little bit each evening. Hopefully I can get into a routine where this will come naturally to me again. I need a bit of routine in my life, otherwise my brain hurts.
Bye for now, peeps.
Yes - you still pop up on my feed!
