I’ve Been Away For Far Too Long

It’s been three weeks since my last post and that is a travesty. Grant it, I’ve gone for weeks before without posting, but never over the Christmas / New Years break. So here is a summary of all the wonderful things that happened over the holidays:

When all was said and done with school, I came out on top with the following grades:

  1. Color Theory: B+
  2. Drawing: B-
  3. Art History: A-
  4. Design: A-
  5. History Of Motion Media: B

I’m quite pleased with myself as you can imagine. Especially since everyone (family, mostly) assumed that once you take time off from school, you never quite get back in the swing of it. In other, semi-related news, I just checked my schedule for next quarter only to find that none of the classes I registered for are there anymore. Next quarter is going to be easy! Kidding, I need to get that fixed ASAP, especially since school starts this upcoming Monday.

It was a festive Christmas here at Camp Gormley. Many gifts were exchanged and the spirit of the season was outstanding. My Aunt Dottie came in to stay with us for the week start XMas day and ending the Friday of that week. It was good seeing her and the rest of the family, everyone looks to be in good health and a little bit older, but I suppose I look much older to them too.

Now to the real meat of this sausage covered, tuna topped, steak abundant, pepperoni pizza of an entry: my Christmas gifts. I made out like a bandit this year and have the good to prove it. In short, I received: A bitchin set of samurai swords fashioned after those found in Kill Bill, which will allow me to smite evildoers. I also received some gift cards to Old Navy, H&M, American Express, etc. Next up are a few DVDs I received with one word reviews directly following them: War Of The Worlds (good), Lost In Translation (good), Office Space w/Flair (awesome), Aqua Teen Season 4 (hilarious), Batman Begins (rockin), and National Treasure (unviewed). I received Very Sexy For Him2 (cologne) from Rach. Smelling that stuff is like an orgasm for your nostrils! I also received an incredibly comfortable Nautica pajama set from Rach’s mom. Quite a good Christmas for Andrew, indeedy.

I saw the fireworks on New Years and they were pretty good. The rest of the night after the fireworks was very intense (in the good way) and everything seems to have ended on a good note. Now, for New Years resolutions, maybe I’ll post them some other time because right now my stomach is turning in knots. Hope everyone had a great Christmas and a stellar 2005.

“Time to return…”

about this

So little to say and so much time… Here goes something….

My name is Andrew to everyone who knows me and nothing to the people who don’t. I rarely feel inclined to write about myself and this small text blurb is no exception. I’m a film maker, of sorts. A designer, of sorts. A musician, of sorts. A photographer, of sorts. An armada of etceteras march behind these four generals.

The point I’m trying to make is that I enjoy art in all of it’s forms, and try my best to creatively express myself in every medium I take a liking towards. As always, things like life get in the way of being a non-stop idea factory, but that life is something that I’m thoroughly enjoying at the moment.

It consists of my beautiful girlfriend who I am very much in love with, a job that pays me well to do work that I would otherwise be doing for free, and a family and friends that I wouldn’t trade the world for. It’s safe to assume that I’m walking on air/over water/atop mountain peaks (pick one… hell, pick all three).
