Question mark mood= tried, hurty, pleased.

Thanks for the comments, Kelsey and Ezel. And welcome to Talim [in case you see this].

It's 22:45 and I had to get up for classes this morning. Yuck, I'm tired. I wanted to watch the new episode of House before bed, but I thought I'd post so maybe tomorrow.

Maybe? Maybe for a 45min show (comms not inclueded). A great show and all I have is a maybe.

Things come up. Take today; average Monday.

Chemistry at 11:00
Relst at 15:00

I had a quiz in Relst but I say that coming for a while. The campus was shut down last Wensday so, yeah, had it today. Still didn't do all my readings for that class. I hate case studies. I can't help it. We did get an interesting instruction for the quiz. After you answer the question you have to turn over your scantron and doodle until the next question appears on the projector (it's a big lecture hall).

So, I actually don't like drawing. I've noticed this more and more recently. Like, two days ago I started drawing and hated how it came out. It was terrible. But, I drew on my scantron and liked it. I think I just don't like the manga/anime drawing style. At least not for me. It frusterates me, but a mix between realism and manga I like. I only seem to do the left eye. I either run out of room or time.





Those are my only two I have. Of course, I had to play with contrast to get them darker, but you get the idea.

So, that was Reslt. Chem was prety good. That jerk sat near me and talked to himself non-stop all class. I think he has a weird brain disorder. He wasn't close enough to really bother me, so that was awesome alone. I got all my problems right. I think it finally clicked. I just needed to sleep for twelve hours. I have a quiz Wensday, so I got to start memorizing all my cations, anions, charges, ect. If I memorized them before hand I wouldn't need to now.

Yeah, so far this is the normal day. This was a good normal day. No reason not to tune into my show. Well, there was, but before I get to that...Super Bowl. Anyone watch? Of course I did, I never miss one. I saw a lot of Steelers' logos on campus today. Surprising for a Colts dominated area. Tomorrow I have History. I'm hoping my Steelers fanatic prof. will be so happy he gives us A's on our quizzes next week. He'll be swearing up a storm. He swears more when he's in a good mood. Reminds me of "home" [Philadelphia].

Alright, so, I kissed 500 USD goodbye today, holding myself a spot for Australia. Yays, Australia! I have to get my bank in California under control (yes, they're still bothering me even though I don't live there anymore). I need to keep myself above 2.0. I need to get in all the other paper work, meaning I need a psyical. Bleck, lousy quacks. And I need to somehow get the extra money I need to go. If I fail any of this, I don't go and I lost 500 USD for nothing.

But, now why I didn't watch any TV today and might not tomorrow. The reason...television.

Confused? I assume yes.

I own one fifth of an incredubly tiny production [lack of a better word] company. We'll be hitting two years in June. People will either respond [cool] or [pfft]. Alright then, quit reading because I'm talking about progress the rest of the post.

Our first project we dubbed Epic. We call it that because nothing has ever been done on this scale before. We try to explain it to people and it's almost impossible to find a starting and stopping point. It's still in really really really early developmental stages too. People seem to really enjoy the things we tell them. We can't say much, because duh, if we lose Epic we lose our entire company. And it's so full of surprises that we'd hate to spoil anything. We're not exactly sure what are spoilers and what aren't at this point, it's that early on. Other than a few people on here, parents, and a few spare "test subjects" Epic is pretty much under wraps. The company, The Unsaid Works, is a little more out in the open. Very little more.

Right now we do very little PR. Because I got the time and set up the places, PR is usually handled by me. So, PR time:
EPIC Awareness
Our rarely updated site letting people know about things we can tell you. This is the solid production development stuff that people don't find interesting. We do have some overviews of countries, and we update here if we want ideas for country/city/holiday names. Right now we have an update on there letting people weight in on naming a country.
PicturEPIC -An Unsaid World
This is a concept gallery, meaning we'll put up pictures of characters. Not actual pictures, Epic isn't cartoon. We were looking for CG, the really good expensive stuff (which sets us back another two/three years). We perfer voice actors to actors. But, yes, this is a weekly updated WORLD. The info isn't as solid, but much more fun.

Okay, so now that PR is taken care of, I'm going to say why I didn't watch TV. Because I was on the phone from 17:(something) to 21:(something). We were doing screenplay for this one episode. We came up with the idea for this episode when I was in New York [where HQ is] a few months ago. I couldn't work on Epic when I did the film school thing. Then I started college up again in IN. [Yeah, I went from NY to CA to IN all within 4 months.] So, now we're doing some work on it. The screenplay is in NY, so I'll send needed unformatted text over Cas to format. She'll do it when I'm on the phone, unless I send it really early or really late. Then she and a couple others, [Bobby, Meg, Sam are the only others] will read it to me. Over the phone. Then we'll decide if things need to be edited, dialog and stuff. When it has a few more pages to it, they send me a copy so I can have a spare and maybe do more editing.

Yes, there are five people doing editing. Five people doing everything. That's why so much time. We each specialize in different characters/places. My first area of specialization is the country Zephyr. Little fact, Zephyr pre-dates Epic. That Zephyr no longer exists. They are the same in name only. But, out of the hundred(s) of countries we have, Zephyr is my area alone.

Right after we developed the idea ofEpic I have to leave NY and come to IN [I travel a lot so sorry if I confuse you]. This was 2007. So, I left and was cut off from HQ and this awesome idea that wouldn't go away. I decided to do backstories for some characters. I started some basic history on Zephyr for that reason but it took off. Soon I had the entire country from founding to present. I'm talking political, economical, educational, everything. Right down to marriage ceremonies.

The characters we weight in on are the ones we originally created. With five people you have five sources. The episode we're working on has one of mine, one of Meg's, and one of Bobby's. Dialog and reaction are important.

I'm dead exhausted now. I said I was hurty in my mood. My median nerve is all shot to heck. I freaked it out in Chemistry. Not really smart to type a huge thing like this, but I have to take notes manually all week and that hurts worse. So, what the heck, type away. But, um, yeah, probably going to be the last post or anything for a bit. If I comment, it'll be short.

Good morning! [0:07] INXS rocks. Wait, that time can't be right. Wow, hurty makes typing slow.
