Meh.

I've been putting off adding a new post. There doesn't seem a lot to report on. I'm nearly there - 27 days and I will have handed in my final deadline. I'm surprisingly calm, everything seems very under control. I'm onto my last drafts of my fiction and script, I've got one more critical commentary to do and just finish the films and tidy all the paper work up. Not that much really, to do in a month. Then it's my birthday and I'll be 22 and done.

M is freaking out - he's in the studios nearly every night at the moment polishing his songs and it's painful to watch him panic yet again. I think I'm more excited about him getting out than me - it's been such a struggle for him to get motivated enough to do some work, he just doesn't have any fire for it anymore. If he ever did. It would just be lovely for him not to come home stressed out and complaining about deadlines and tutors and beating himself up about not doing enough work all the time. But he doesn't do enough, and he knows it. It's just hard to not nag and look like the baddy.

We set up the final time lapse for Iain Haysom this afternoon and took him into the music labs to do the voice over for the films. It went incredibly smoothly - the man is a natural! He also loved the films and I think once the final polish goes on with the v/o and all the little extras we're going to add in it will all look beautiful and I'll be proud to hand a selection of the films in to Nic.

Bristol Festival of Ideas man invited M and I to the dinner after the prize giving next week - free supper! Always up for extra perks of a job! Which is the other film? Oh yes, the hateful teahouse film which really isn't so hateful except that its taken SO long to finish. M is writing the music for his 'writing for tv' module so that should be done soon.... So nearly there!

Then what?
