Friends always offer the best advice.

Me: I really need to do something about my money situation...I am $40 in the hole in my checking account...plus the $2000 credit card bill.

Derek: I tell ya Mike, you need to get into porn.

This, by the way, is the 17th time my friend Derek told me to go into porn to fix my money situation. I...

First all, thanks for the nice birthday comments. I will get to responding to them.

I had to work on my birthday (which always sucks), but friends from work took me to dinner afterwards. Twas very nice.

The day after, my sister gave birth to my niece Katie. She lives Iowa, so I probably won't get a chance to see her unless I get Sunday...

I think it is time to get a little realistic here...

I am turning 23 tomarrow. I have a bachelors. Yet, I am earning less than $400 a month. Why?

Cause I think I need to finally admit I am not talented enough. That the past 4 years of my life that I dedicated to animation was nothing more than a waste of time or...

I am feeling better about the whole art test thing. But that feeling passed as I working. It was unusally busy today....like no one realized that the Superbowl was on. And to make matters worse, the Misses department decided not to do work and forced about 15 people from downstairs to be called up....me included. So what are the employees doing in the department when...

Well...that was a bust....

Not officially yet, but I am 90% sure I fucked up and will still be working in the retail world.

I am really beginning to question this animation and art thing....

For the few that saw the last entry, I got it finished and attempted to fix the flaws.

Not perfect but then again, what is? All animations can be improved.

I am beginning to think that this project that was supposed to only be "a few hours" that turned out be a 14 hour project was a a test. Not of skill, but of just...

I hate to say it, but this art test kicked my ass.

I got through the Photoshop part and the model sheet part just fine...but the Maya part was disaterous...ironically too.

It was simple...build a low poly man, rig it, walk cycle, and light it. But everything just went wrong. The first rig failed on me...so I had to redo it. The second worked fine,...

I was hoping that my next entry was going to have good news...but I don't.

Well, anyways, I might as well tell you. I had my first job interview on Tuesday. It was for a cell phone game company downtown. The company is only about 12 people, but they make some big named titles (Splinter Cell and they are working on Sim City as well)....

First of all...NYC. Not gonna happen. Can't afford it. Instead, I might be going to Disney World when my college friends are on spring break. Why Disney World...a friend interns for them at the park and we will be visiting him. If that doesn't work, I am sure I can maybe take a trip to Portland. I am pretty sure I can find one or...

Does the assistant manager of the Men's department telling me that "sorry, I haven't seen you in a while, so I didn't know that you still worked here" a valid reason to tell JC Penney's off and quit? Or the fact that I have been working for 5 months and haven't gotten my 90 day raise yet?

I have been there for 5 months and...

Hey man ,

Have you been working on your reel?

there really isnt much advice i can give but to work on your reel , make it top shape and apply to companies over and over , it will also help immensely if you know someone on the inside that can get you past HR or at least put in good word for you.

Also i know that come this aprip\may alot of companies will be hiring , so that'll be a good time for job hunting.

good luck!

Dude, if you like instant pasta dishes, I've got something you should try. Get your garden variety Ragu sauce and add some of that bottled alfredo sauce. I like about a 2part to 3part ratio. Add some red pepper flakes to taste and fresh mushrooms (if you like mushrooms like I do). It's really simple and it tastes so so so yummy. Lately, I've been adding sautd shrimp and it's TO DIE FOR!
