Super Roommates began filming on Friday the 13th of March. It was amidst a snowstorm, and there was an accident on Deerfoot, so I arrived on set after pretty much all my cast & crew, but our location still wasn't available to us until fifteen minutes after our call time so it wasn't bad. Yet. … Continue reading Production Day 1: Friday the 13th
A Secret Project
I got super lucky in January in terms of roles. I managed to worm my way into four short films, two as the lead, one bit part and one background. But apparently that wasn't enough for me, because I wanted to make a short film. If you've been around very long, you may remember SIV, … Continue reading A Secret Project
Living
I had a bad day last week. The worst in a while, with a bunch of different not-fun things coming together all in that one day. And I discovered something amazing. Despite my best efforts and my repeated mentions of not wanting to get tied down to Calgary, in my so-called "darkest hour", I found … Continue reading Living
My First Rant (About Everything)
My computer is getting slower by the day and it is driving my crazy. Also driving me crazy? My room. I don't have a chair for my desk so I have to bend over to use my laptop which is uncomfortable and probably bad for me. I have stuff all over the floor in an … Continue reading My First Rant (About Everything)
Bournemouth Days 3 and 4
Okay, so that last post was a bit sparse. From Tuesday to Friday, I stayed with my friend Siân in beautiful Bournemouth. As soon as I arrived, we went straight to the beach because it was sunny and the forecast for the rest of the week was pessimistic at best. We got there and I … Continue reading Bournemouth Days 3 and 4
Bournemouth Days 1 and 2
It's surprising how busy I've found myself even after classes have ended. I didn't even have the time to blog yesterday when I arrived in Bournemouth! Bournemouth is an amazing place with the kind of sunny beaches you don't expect to find in England. I'm staying with my friend Siân for the week. Nice of … Continue reading Bournemouth Days 1 and 2
Final Year Goals
Sometimes I stop and think, do I have too much on my plate? Am I too busy? And then I add something big to my To-Do list. I've had a lot of goals for my third and final year of university, and my last year in England: Do more travelling before I leave; I haven't … Continue reading Final Year Goals
Coming Up For Air
For once, everything's quiet. That's rare at a university. The wifi only half-works and it's horrible. Like right now, I'm getting messages saying I'm no longer connected to the internet, but it still shows four bars and green lights. Let me give you a rough update on my life. I haven't had many personal posts lately, which is … Continue reading Coming Up For Air
Twenty-One
I wasn't going to say anything at all today or ever again, but the secret's out now, I guess. Hold on, I'm getting ahead of myself. I woke up in Paris this morning, half an hour before the alarm. 4am UK time, 5am Paris time. Got ready, packed my bags, and left. I took the … Continue reading Twenty-One
Busy Days
(This post was written yesterday.) I'm trying to write a post every day, but yesterday I completely forgot. *Sigh* I guess I'm starting my streak over. Yesterday I got up for a 9am meeting that I found out was actually at noon. I spent my extra hours awake to work on an essay due next … Continue reading Busy Days
