updates and other random things

I choose to live in a happy world where I pretend that everyone loves me. So I love the Fanvid Love Meme!

I'm gearing up to do my holiday cards, so drop me your address.

I'm in the process of graduating with my Bachelor's degree. Officially, I'm done the 12th. Pending that I have a job lined up too. It's not 100% because I haven't signed any papers, but it's looking good.

I read Vampire Politics by: Lisa Nakamura / University of Illinois, Laurie Beth Clark / University of Wisconsin, and Michael Peterson / University of Wisconsin, which was a very interesting analysis for True Blood.

I watched Geoff McFetridge's Do Lecture last night. Basically, take what he said, apply it to vidding, and you have some of my current thoughts.

I've been LOL-ing and enjoying UCB's Noteworthy performing Lady Gaga's "Poker Face"


The Office's Creed Bratton's "Rubber Tree"

Such an interesting lecture. I like what he was saying about companies with no heads. And the fluidity of being an individual that enables one to make change.

. . . we can all make anything, you know you have that choice. But what it's really about, you know we don't live in a vacuum. And we have to apply the world around us, our friends, our interests, our problems to what we do and that gives us something to make. To do.

No real response right now, just gives me a lot to think about. Thanks for sharing this. :-)

For some reason, I love watching lectures online, like TED Talks and the Do Lectures. They blow my mind and make me thing. I usually apply them to completely random things, like vidding.

I am now officially a fan of Noteworthy! :D

Me too. I've been watching some of the videos they have up on youtube. They're fantastic!

People who don't love you are probably kind of stupid. Also, that meme was very awesome.

Congrats!

*bookmarks lecture for later*

Awww, you're so sweet. I lied, I live in a world where everyone has a secret seething hatred of me, but acts like they love me.

:)

I'm such a loser for watching lectures for things I'm not majoring in.
