tyrant or cock block or just too much of a showoff...

Just completed the film camp @ Columbia College this afternoon. It was a four day class that was to teach us the ins and outs of video making and editing. Great !! Just loved it, and the best thing is is that i did it for the rite reasons: what I experienced this year @ Hilts H.S. was incredible, and this class is for my future eye of returning to the school and applying my learnings for the kids. I feel like a go-dooder, but c'est vrai. It's just that I haven't a school, and I'd made so many teacher connexions @ H.H.S., and they have a very vibrant arts program (remember my commercials??): when will I be able to use what I've learned for the syudents? It'll be great whenever I get a video camera (a nice one, w/ my non-bill making livestyle, would basically be free- like my car- but still I wait), but now that i've been trained on Mac- I'll have tom learn the windows version (I know, the exact same thing).

So, I made some enemies @ film camp. I got stuck with #21 and #22 for only one day. The next day we worked by ourselves in the a.m., and then I worked with other people in the p.m. I'd made damn sure I worked w/ my selve after my experience the day before, but for the p.m. assignment, I had to be a third in a group of 2 who'd worked to-gether in the a.m. The girl in the group asked me to join their group of 2, and bunched up a bannana fill oq questions @ me..........hmmmmmmmm.....I had no interest of course, but the boy fool got real mad @ me- even though he was married, I immediately felt he viewed me as The Cock Block. I just wanted to do my work and not be hit on by this woman, but the fool just hated that he was no longer the center of attention. I avoided him like the plague that he is (really felt bad for him).

Day three I got stuck with an old guy who left after 2h of filming. Since he brought his own camera, he didn't want me to touch it. He had some training on this and so was 'the expert', but he didn't know how to do anything. Good riddence.

I understand that I need to work on getting along with people. I do well w/ frenz but badly w/ family (unless they are older than 80 and younger than 22). I got along badly w/ that lady I was stuck with 2ya, and that lost me my job. Then again, the last two years I've gotten along tremendously with every co-workers-deep positive vibes- too bad my fellow media specialist @ H.H.S. wasn't in the class with me - but still. We always should grow.

I loved the class. hey, $400 too!! I'm tired* of Vito telling me about his weekend conference @ some ski resort here or there- it's about time I got a nice 'perk'. Now, one of therse days, I'll go on a business trip like Lazers or Moho. One of these days....
