Holy Thunderclusterfucks!
As of today, i am two weeks away from finishing school. What the fuck? -Where did time go?
-Wasn't it like, three days ago i was just peeing my pants in anticipation to get this shit started? Now, i am awake at 3:00am blogging about how i am almost done. Moe There FUCK 'Er!Now comes the real deal of knocking on the doors of a thousand and one studios up here, and try to find a job that would allow me to make a living outta my trade...
I am lucky my school is in a weird government sponsored trial pilot project that allows me to apply for a work permit equal to the amount of time i spend schooling myself up here: one year. So i will be applying for this in the upcoming days.
One of the cool things up here, is that there are a gajillion -and then some- production houses and studios that would hire animators right outta school. The bad thing to that is that they reason they are here is because they get tax cuts from the government. This means, they must employ more local people... so my work permit is somewhat kinda useless to get a job in animation here... hopefully i will be able to flip burgers here or there to make some small amount of income, thus enabling me to pay rent, feed myself and not end up living in Main St. and Hastings any time soon.
All the while, i am working on my own gig, along with my roomie, classmate and lesbian-interracial-partner. That is right, we have launched GODOJOBO! as an outlet for our creative work. We are currently releasing a weekly podcast, and are hard at work on the production of our very first web cartoon. So be sure to keep an eye on that.
On other news, August 17th marks my official one year of celibacy.
That is right, my dear READER -whoever you are- it has been a year since i last had sex.
I am planning on celebrating the occasion by going out, getting drunk, hitting on all my friends, failing miserably, coming home alone, masturbating into one of my many cum-sucks, and crying myself to sleep in my room while the landlord's kids run in circles dropping marbles on the hardwood floor of the kitchen, right above me, at 4:00am in the morning.
If you are in the greater Vancouver area, or would like to come and see this trainwreck, let me know so i can tell you when and where this will take place.
I am now gonna go create the event in FACEBOOK and then most likely masturbate and going to bed. It is a school night after all.
Before that, i leave you with a small video of Henry Rollins being fucking awesome. What he says in that video can be transponded to any means of creative work... keeping things like that in mind, is what keeps me running. Hope you all enjoy it.
