Does This Make Me Girly?

So I've been working on cleaning my room. It's always been a bit of a giant effing mess. Someone told me once that I could be more productive in an organized environment, so I figured I'd give it a shot. Even though I've always felt more creative in a chaotic environment...

Anyhow, I moved a bunch of stuff out of the room that I don't use or need anymore and it opened up some interesting new possibilities. For one thing, I was finally able to arrange my picture frames nicely. Where an old clunky TV that I never watched used to sit is now a cool little cluster of family pictures.

Isn't that nice to look at?

I love my family. And scented candles are NOT girly. And even if they are, I have a lava lamp on the far left that balances it out. Yup. Nothing makes me feel manlier than switching on my lava lamp.

I also have wide open spaces on my floor now. It has made the grueling daily task of walking through my room a breeze! The reason this is possible is because I finally picked up the tangled horror web of cords that used to cover my carpet like a layer of vines. They are all neatly packed into a duffel bag. I even got to vacuum! 

In other, unrelated news, I found an envelope buried behind my desk. I opened it and it was $20 that someone had sent me from Christmas! Huzzah!! I love it when that happens. Surprise money is all the more welcome when you are simply out of money and are anticipating another week of starvation and self-neglect. Now I can go buy food and books and other such important college things. Learning is expensive.

I have decided to undertake a project. There is a competition film festival coming up that is run by the good people at the SCSU Computer Store. The first prize is $700. That sounds like money I should have. Anyhow, I looked at entries from past years in the competition and they kind of sucked. So I concluded that if I made a film and submitted it to this years competition, I would almost certainly win!! The only thing is...I need an idea. Something. Anything to put down as a screenplay so I can get to work. That is my task this week. To write a short 3-5 minute film. Any ideas? Let me know!

That's all for now!!
