Musings of an Idiot

Contemplation & Action

The whole week has been characterized by 3 things: contemplation, rain and action.

It has been pouring down with rain the whole week and it has also caused some traffic breakdowns across the north island because of the mud slides - especially in the Coromandel peninsula. Auckland hasn't been too bad. Nights are getting longer and the days shorter- winters are now almost at the doorstep.

Lots of other things going on with the movie, which combined with my time spent at school - meant I was doing 14+ hours a day for the whole week. I just revamped my personal website as it was overdue - it felt a little dated, so I simplified it - a lot. Check it out HERE. And yes greencine.com will be hosting the collection of our short films which we did in while studying at school, which is definitely exciting.

Watched a few films: 'The Interpreter' ; 'Thirteen'; 'A Lot like Love' whenever I got a little bit of time. 'Thirteen' is a flawed movie but hard hitting - it is the acting which makes that movie. 'A lot like Love' was funny in parts but definitely too long. The middle felt a little stretched out but still it was good timepass. 'The Interpreter' starts off with a bang but looses itself in it's own cleverness and the ending was blahhhhh...

A lot of time over the past few days has also been about personal contemplation and I am just falling deeper and deeper into it. So many things to wonder about...

Bye for now,
