Soo tired. Just saying now, I will be continuing the typing in chinese thing, but only occasionally. Right now, I'm not really in the mood to think in Chinese.
Sooooo... yay I'm not doing my screen play :D:D Good thing because it would have been hard to film I think. So I joined another screen play instead. It's more of a comedic film thing, so it's not too complex. We have 4 people per group, each member with a specific production role. I ended up as editor (god knows why -.-") although I think I would have preferred being the storyboard person. Well I guess being the editor, I have the power to cut out what I don't want, so I can remove any parts I don't like XD I'm a bit worried about my friend (who's the storyboard person- there is some technical name for it but I can't remember) how she might approach this, because I think there might be some unnecessary zooms of random things like the hand opening the door (to show that the couple has entered maccas) etc.. Also, she kind of broke down today with all the stress that she's been dealing with... honestly I don't know what to do in those situations. I suck at comforting even though I'm relatively close friends with her, what can I say? I know how she's feeling, and I tell her that she needs to take things more slowly and stop putting so much pressure on herself; I'm glad there was this other friend of hers who helped out and took her to the bathroom... Sometimes I think this makes me a really bad friend... Sure I understand how a person might feel, but I have no way of making them feel any better. I personally would feel better if I was left alone, but that's not the same for everyone.

And I think I might need to start planning what I need to do in these last few weeks of uni- so apparently I do have a Japanese oral, and that I might have to reconsider doing Jap as an elective to do something multimedia (which I really don't want to)... one of the units that I'm doing well in too... received above 90% in all my class tests, and got 89.5/100 for my mid semester. And I barely have to do much revising for Jap, which is a bonus. (not trying to sound so conceited XD) Also have to think about all 3 video projects which might become a bit of a problem depending on time... and also that big big problem for my game. In the lectures they don't teach you any of the actual coding for how to make the moles pop up or anything- what the hell am I supposed to do with all this other stuff that you've taught us but I don't even really want to put it in my game???
Sorry for this crap load of ranting but it's gotta go somewhere.

Oh- also I'm going to apply for a free study tour of Japan near the end of the year XD All expenses paid, just have to write up a 3000 word essay and do some presentation. I would totally love to be given the chance to go, but what are the chances? I'm sure a lot of people are going to apply for it too. But it definitely would be a good experience.
