re-activated my account mostly out of habit than real desire... i've been well lame on here lately innit. been a bit lame in real life to be honest, since being at uni now animating is taking over my life. i do love it, and i am a genius (objectively. it's just fact), but been overwhelmed by work and getting all depressed about it. on a lighter note, i won a job animating for nationwide mental health awareness campaign 'time to change' so that's pretty rad. apart from adding to the stress levels and yet distancing me from any kind of normal life. what do normal people do if they're not animating or sleeping? i forget.
how's everyone???
love.x
ps. before you say anything, i do hate myself for the lack of capital letters here, but am too tired to go back and change. i'll be sure to try harder in the future >.<

Wow, I haven't posted since the riots!
Mental.
Well I had a shitty depressed couple of months, but my medication got sorted and now feeling a lot better.
I'M AT UNI! Can you believe that shit? Well, it's true, whether you do or not.
Studying Animation at Ravensbourne in Greenwich and it's awesome.
I'll post some animation work at some point.
Also I gots me a new tattoo.
Tara for now.
Much Love. X

things that i've lost with my laptop being stolen:
> my latest showreel project file and master.
> my latest animation job.
> my music... lots and lots of it.
> all my harry potter audiobooks!
> every series of journey into space!
> the latest versions of two feature and two short film scripts i'm writing.
> a fucking ton of software.
> the last 3 versions of my website.
> a music video edit.
> possibly a friend (based on loss of music video edit).
more keeps cropping up as i think about it, so i'll try not to.
blah.
but anyway; i have an interview for taking the animation degree at ravensbourne uni in greenwich in the morning. but i am currently still at work (midnight and counting...) finishing things off because i slept in til 1pm today. my sleeping is genuinely starting to worry me about now. for three days of the last long-weekend just gone, i was awake for about 10 hours all told, and i am just always tired! i feel like i did during my last major depressive episode, just without the emotional side (fortunately, i suppose). but it worries me that it might be connected to a downer on the bipolar front so i'm now stressing myself about not falling down a slippery slope.
despite the moaning nature of this blog, things aren't actually too bad. some good things to reflect upon:
> sun!
> another long weekend to look forward to.
> my sister came to london on monday and due to robbery i had the day off so went drinking with her which was nice, and finished it off by watching back to the future at the prince charles cinema! (incidentally, they are showing bill and ted's bogus journey on the 1st of may - anyone keen?)
> an easter egg waiting for me at my mums!
> my boss booked me my ticket to cannes film festival.
> bought myself a ticket to terry gilliam's 'damnation of faust' opera.
hmm
i'll admit it - i'm unhappy with the structure, pace, tone and content of this blog, but fortunately/unfortunately (delete as appropriate) too tired to do anything but post it.
