President's Day consisted of Betty and I have an amazing time :D

It was quite a tiring day to be honest. Firstly, I had a film shoot to do which I was meant to be running. Thank god I have Linda - a far more experienced Videographer than I - to help. She was very good at telling the actors what to do and discussing with me where we should place certain probs. Betty was also a major help with her amazing camera skills so thank you guys so much!

The shoot was about encouraging people to intervene if there is an incident and promoting racial diversity on campus. It was for UCSD. I enjoyed doing it and i learnt a lot. It always is surprising, however, how long a five minute scene can take to shoot. Also David had run off with the boom and consequently, we were trying to pick up sound on hidden microphones and shooters attached to the cameras. But, at the end of the day, it was a good shoot - I felt. We went back to the studios where I turned to Betty and asked if she could smell something. I got a really strong glare back and she started flicking her eyes behind her. I won't mention who there were but lets call him Man A was sitting behind her.
Oh, I thought he must just smell of chicken. He was playing with what look liked a whole load of rubber bands. I wasn't quite sure why - maybe a stress mechanism or something....well I thought that until he put the device to his lips and started smoking it. The studio is a small place. And that was the longest ten minutes of my live where I wanted to virtually break down the computer to make the memory card transfer the footage quicker. Betty and I were offered some but I think our recoiling and looks of disgust were enough for everyone to realise we 'weren't that kinda cool'.

Yuck.

I was glad when we escaped! Nearly coughed up my lungsssssssss!!!!

Later we came back to mine and painted our nails again and watched COUNTLESS episodes of Miranda. It was so much fun! I haven't watched it in ages. It was so funny! Miranda and Gary were adorable - and apparently reminded Betty of Me and someone. Hm. Well I can see the similarities between Miranda and I...
