What’s funny?
I received my new camera today. By camera, I mean camcorder. And because of my cold, which has been treating me badly tonight, Im not enjoying it yet.
Once, I looked at it and thought, What if Im just no good with you? And I could easily not be, I could easily be what I was before, but I hope Im not. I hope to God, I cant feel him lately, God. When I pray, am I supposed to?
Disregarding the supreme, I put on an old video from just last year, from August 2003. Ive borrowed my friends (moms) camcorder to watch my old footage. Boy, I am so different. And, for a little bit it was fun, I had made a movie a year and a half ago that was a bunch of clips strung together with music, Coldplay Everythings Not Lost, and that was really good and Im watching my New Old footage and Im thinking, Hey, maybe I can make another. But its not as good. Or not as loving, the footage.
Maybe I just dont want to repeat stupid things, and I find myself, then, embarrassing. All that bullshit footage for what? To try out new shots and not do anything with them.
Theres a line between experimentation and wasting time. I dont want to repeat my mistakes. Last year I was thin, and full of myself.
Now I just wanna be something more. No more bullshit. Im not scared of failing anymore.
ADDENDUM: Maybe I wasn’t scared. Maybe I just became an asshole, and maybe now I’m just bitter. Just a thought.
jon strong, it was nice seeing you again! 😀
