[mood | nervous]

I am so freaking nervous right now. I need to go to bed so I can wake up because call time for my first time directing an HFC(Hofstra Filmmakers' Club) film is at 6a.m.. I am like shaking. I keep thinking something's going to go wrong. I keep thinking it's going to rain or one of my actors won't show up or I'll oversleep or freeze up or something. I need to relax.

I really do not like where I am right now. I can't remember the last time I had all my thoughts straight. There's so many thoughts and desires and emotions constantly running through me. I'm starting to feel like there's something wrong with me. I feel like this must be how crazy people feel. I'm like spit between several sides. They all want something different and they are tearing me apart. In the morning I will be wanting something completely different then what I want right now.

People think I'm confident. They do. I don't know why. I have no confidence. I really don't. I'm constantly questioning everything I do.

I'm friends with seemingly everyone. I really am. I say hi to so many people when I walk anywhere. So why do I feel like there is no one there?

There's a phone call I've been wanting to make. I don't know if it's the best idea. I just feel like it's something I should do... eventually.

I don't know what I'm doing here. I'll probably delete this within a few days.

I've been busy. That means this is supposed to be out of my mind. So why is it eating at my brain?

I had a dream last night, a certain person that I haven't seen in years and I became friends again. There were a lot of other things happening but I don't remember and I'm pretty sure none of them were as important as this.

I don't know why but after all these years I still have dreams about this person. I wonder what they did to have such a lasting effect on my mind.

I did this to myself. [Oct. 16th, 2009|11:35 pm]
I guess a night like this was bound to happen sooner or later.

[music |Motley Crue - She Goes Down]

I love being a film major. Last week's shoot was a ton of fun, even though it was long, cold, and everyone was cranky. I mean it was two nights. Saturday's shoot started at 6 pm and didn't end till Sunday at 5:30 am. It was cold, we were cranky but I still loved it. Plus, and I hate to sound like I'm in middle school but I'm now friends with all the cool film kids. Haha! It's no big deal except for the fact that they run HFC(Hofstra Filmmakers' Club) and it's definitely going to be beneficial being friends with them. My nickname is apparently Buddha.

I'm seeing Where the Wild Things Are with HFC tomorrow. It's like a big club trip so that should be pretty cool. I'm acting in a 47 film Saturday morning and then I'm going bowling that night and possibly dinner. I'm really looking forward to that one.

Oh! I've been greenlit to make my first HFC film. It's going to be awesome. I need to get to work though. I still have to make a shot list, a crew(although I'm already getting a lot of requests to help), and a budget/schedule but I don't think that will take to long. I want to get it shot soon though because two characters are wearing nothing but a sheet for the whole film and it's completely outside.

Had my meeting with the people running Birthright. With any luck I'll be spending New Year's in Israel!

Just finished shooting my first RTVF 27 film, "Lessons in Love". I'm a little worried about a few shots because I can't edit this project and I know the light was overexposed on some shots but there wasn't really much I could do about it.

Now, I'm just enjoying a PB&J, a beer and the Patriots game.

Got a Drastic Measures rehearsal in an hour and then I'm doing stand up twice again tonight. I totally killed last night. It feels so good when you have a great set. I even had a few jokes that I came up with that day that people loved.

Then I really should revise an HFC script and write a treatment for my Screenwriting class. I've been putting those off for a little while now.

I've also been meaning to make a joke database on my computer. It's probably better than saving the napkins I write my sets on.

Maybe I will fast tomorrow. Not for religious reasons but because the idea of Yom Kippur seems to have a bigger meaning for me this year. It seems appropriate to cleanse my soul and start the year fresh.

More details about the rape incident.

Yeah. I wanted to give this story the benefit of the doubt but it's become pretty clear that the girl lied.

In the wake of the gang rape incident I am really surprised that this place isn't more of a madhouse today.

I don't know how far this story is stretching but apparently it's become a national story. What happened was this past Sunday a girl reported that she was lured into a bathroom on the eleventh floor of the building I live in and was tied up and raped by five guys. One of the guys goes to school here. This past week has been crazy around campus. Everyone kept talking about it. My facebook was dominated with statuses about it. Two other incidents happened this week too. On Tuesday there was an armed robbery and yesterday there was an alert of two separate sexual harassment cases.

So anyway, yesterday the girl who was supposedly raped recanted her statement. Apparently, she was lying the whole time. Again, within minutes my facebook was littered with angry statuses. I received an email this morning from Hofstra that said to call public safety if anyone was being harassed by the media.

Now, no one believes that this story is over. It's possible that the girl wasn't lying and there is something fishy there but the story was pretty weird to begin with. One detail that I found strange was that one of the guys asked the girl if she wanted to get something to eat after they finished.

If it really is a lie though, I feel really bad for the guy on campus who's name was dragged through the mud because of this girl. Everyone on campus(myself included) acted as if they hated this guy. One of my professors actually told the class that he was a monster, which would be true if this happened. I didn't know him but I think he was on the football team.

What really concerns me about this whole thing is the impact it's going to have on future victims around campus. Now, if a girl gets raped on campus no one is going to believe her.


As for the sexual harassment charges, an email was sent explaining them. One was a situation where a guy tried to kiss a girl on the cheek and she freaked out. Another was a guy hit on a girl and put his hand on her back and she also freaked out. Lol, be careful if you're single is all I can say. It's going to be really tough to hit on someone now.

Wow, Hofstra! Gang Rape, Armed Robbery and Sexual Harassment in 4 days. I really feel safe.


Edit: So apparently the gang rape was a lie and the sexual assault turned out be a kiss on the cheek and a pat on the back. What was the armed robbery? A squirtgun over some skittles?
