spring break

I leave tonight to go back to so cal for spring break. For some reason, I'm not as excited as I should be--I have a ton of things that need to be done back home: get my blood drawn, do my storyboard for film class, and storyboard another film that I'm also working on. But there will be other things that I get to do: hang out with fam and friends, sleep in my own bed. Good times. Today is my brother's birthday incidentally. He is 27. Happy Birthday, Kuya!

Collective went well, despite the fact that some of the people who worked on A.'s film were there. They didn't say anything to me though. Whatever. They can think what they want to think. The guy I liked was there, but he showed up late. He gave a talk about composing shots. I was looking at him--you know how you have to look at someone when they speak? Yeah, I was doing that and he would look at me when he'd speak for a couple of seconds, and then he'd look away. Usually, I'd look away if the speaker saw me looking at him, but this time I didn't. I held my ground. I was genuinely interested in what he was saying, and he was speaking so well.

I was hoping he'd say hi to me, anything, but he didn't. I wonder if he even remembers me at all. What could I say to him, at this point? "Hi, I'm Elaine, you taught me how to use the clapper board a couple weeks back." It just sounds so dorky. Well, I'll figure it out after break when I come back. He's a sophomore, so I'll probably see him around.
