Awesome, awesome, awesome stuff.



Isn't it?



I just would love to be able to create a character. It's great, because when you have a freedom to do it you create every element. Each part, each color is there on purpose. Just like each scene and each shot in the movie should be there for a reason.

This is where my heart rests. Thats were I belong.

Aweeee :)


Words that describe you:

Understanding

Unquestioning

Humane

Selfless

Gentle

Kindhearted

Gullible

Indulgent

PS:

and then there are some that just simply don't have the balls. Those piss me off too.

Art Degrees

It has been a long way already. And very hard one.
For me to come to understanding and realize that I want to study art.

So when I see kids who get art degrees and say they want to study art - it's pinching me. Because I know that most of them have no idea what they are talking about. They sense something but do not understand it completly or want it so.

I, on the other hand, feel so strong about it - it makes me cry, literally. It's like the only thing I have in my life. This feeling...not sure if there is a word for it.

Artist

I finally really, trully, completely believe in myself. As an artist.


The work of the art student is no light matter. Few have the courage and stamina to see it through. You have to make up your mind to be alone in many ways. We like sympathy and we like to be in company. It is easier than going it alone. But alone one gets acquianted with himself, grows up and on, not stopping with the crowd. It costs to do this. If you succeed somewhat you may have to pay for it as well as enjoy it all your life.

-Robert Henri


..It's like every word in this quote is suffered through by me. or should I say deserved..

Not fear


It's not fear, not protective it's something else.

See... you've been over the edge, and back. And you've learned to live like that, I'd say mastered it by now.

Me...I live ON THE EDGE. Do you know how does that feel? It's like push me either way and I'll break my neck, falling.
Yeah - I am that high.


Don't judge.
Thanks.

"Solitude"


Whoever came up with the isolation as a form of punishment/torture was one crazy, screwed up motherfucker.

It seems like

everyone in NY is utterly insane and emotianlly unstable.









I fit right in.

Focus


at any price.

It's like water - if you cover the usual raw it goes through, it pushes itself out.

My job is just to help it with a direction when it's happening.

Photoshoot? or something

The only way you'll see me - would be in coffin.


I am dead serious.

:)

Genius 1

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.
-George Bernard Shaw

America

I love her.
:)

I want americans to do the same.

I will not stop.

period.

More about artists


Some people thought/think I am not cool enough. That just means that they are pretty dumb.

And it's not funny. And not pretentious. Just how it is.


What makes me mad is that they already made an ass out of themselves. Big enough for most not to notice what they are actually looking at.

Again - imitation of art or any creativity claimed to be such gotta be stopped.

It's choking art.

Artist


to claim yourself an artist, actually, means to make an artist out of yourself.


Take notes, fellow artists.

Inspiration


If you have lost inspiration - that just means you never really had it. You were cheating yourself into art.
That usually dangerous, reflects in extreme falls. down.

Do you believe in soul-mates?

-that's what they ask on e-harmony..

Genre II


Genre is like a style - a reflection of personality.

Like, let's say, I know somebody who could be a king of drama.



)

President


That is how kids picture a new president of Russian Federation.
Now - try to argue the point that people kill the genius that is in every child.

Sex, Drugs, and Rock'n'Roll


I am normal.


That's awesome!

More Art


In case you are looking for an inspiration...

Dune II

I take it back - the traveling over the edge and crying with blood wasn't bad too.


Sometimes I pray: "God - why didn't you make me stupid and ignorant." I really do.

Stop

If I am going to continue to put my thoughts in this small format - my fingers will fall off.

Dune

Saw it last night.

Only two things impressed me:
The scene with the box - "I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer."

And the "mentor/students" scene - "We are going to kill with a motion and sound."

PS:
I wonder what would critics say now about the film that features the planet Arrakis, and the universe controlled by spice.

Genre

So I was talking to this tutor about films. And in the conversation he says:

"It's about what you want to say in your romantic comedy." then looked at me quickly, brought his eyes down and added: "or a horror film, or something..."


Conclusion:
I am freaking obvious! That is great!

And it was just plain funny too :)

Justify

Why do I always have to be good?!

The purpose of life is make yourself happy - right? So being not so good all the time serves the purpose of my life.

Great Band!


I even know somebody who would have loved them.
)

Abs

So I walk up in the gym to this dude (who looked like shit, btw). And ask him if the abs class is going to be in this studio.

And he goes:
-"Yeah-you need some ab-work."



My jaw must have dropped. Because his eyes got bigger.

... and I thought: "Well, I can get abs - but you sir, as you were an idiot, an idiot you will remain till the rest of your life."

My lips squized into "Thanks!". And a smile.

Signs

CAUTION PEDOFILES!



I wonder how does it feel to sleep with someone who is old enough to be your daughter.
I bet it feels good.


WAKE UP.



PS:
If you are old enough to be the father - that must be a sign.














..um... on a differnt note - anyone else would like to keep my brain occupied?
:)

E-harmony.

Btw - it's just a research material for my first short film.

Discovering

So..........

*blush 'n pause*

I signed up for e-harmony. Very entertaining. And lifts me up. By the time I finish checking my account, I can't help by end up at one web-page... with the question: "I wonder how is that sucker doing."


Is that what people call "glooming"?

No - it can't be. Cuz I am not like that. Everyone knows!



PS:
wtf am I doing?! LOL
Boredom is my enemy.

The key

I understand now why creation process and genius is often connected with insantiy. It's actually very simple and makes sense.

They key is control - aknowledgement and awarness.

Acceptance

I know for the fact that I don't think like most of the people do. And I am not scared of that anymore.

Ripped


Maybe some jeans are ripped because the owner was falling and getting up, falling and getting up - kept walking.

It's like if I went swiming in my ripped pair of jeans. It's very heavy when wet, and they are stuck on you.





Damn Americans, even their clothing is stupid.
=D

Lesson # 2

"Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there
is no path and leave a trail."

PS:
I always had a lot of respect for people who have a good taste.
in art.

Beauty/Knowledge/Power

not neccesarily in any order.

Today I've learned that Public Library opposed to Blockbuster, allows you to search films by the director and has like AWESOME selection. And people who work there are not idiots. And I was the only pretty girl in there.

Look at all the benefits!

Go, Library, Go!
