yesterday i went to yoga the met priya for dinner and coffee at a cute diner on 4th street. then we went to our cinema of attractions class. professor is so so tisch, with his skinny jeans and loafers, his ironically contrasting skinny button down and red striped tie and big big glasses. we watched scott pilgrim, which i hated the first time around, so the 2nd time was even worse. but i made a point afterwards saying that the film was a self aware film and its usage of out dated technology like big clunky phones, payphones, AOL, evokes irony because it's such a modern film, which is the essence of the movie, scott pilgrim himself is all irony because he's this dorky womanizer who is able to defeat all these super villains. the professor said "wow, good point". he didn't say that to anyone else, so i felt pretty good. he also showed us one of the first films ever made, by a french director of the lumieres movement. the shots were all still, because back then the cameras were way too heavy to move which reminded me of Somewhere which I saw a few days ago. The shots were all static, as Nick remarked, which I thought was a lazy, but artistic device for voyeurism and perhaps to show how mundane and boring the guy's life was. It's funny how it used to be because there wasn't a choice, and all frames had to be still, but now, it's an artistic choice.
then i came home and sent out a bunch of emails and almost ordered delivery at 2am but decided to take a xanax instead and conk out. i recorded a song because i have my guitar back. today i woke up pretty late and went to an interview which i'm really hoping i get. the lady said that she was very impressed by me, but the fact that the interview was only 10 mins scares me a bit. she said she has a few more interviews but will let me know by monday if i get the job.
today i was out of the house for 5 minutes and 2 guys stopped in the snow to watch me walk by. one told me that i looked like a model, and the next one told me i had very pretty legs. i just kept walking. you think that french men are forward... welcome back to new york.
i ran all the way over in the snow to print my resume and cover letter and ran all the way back to the office which is actually 2 mins from my house, but she ended up having a copy already so i did all that for nothing. i looked awful from the snow, my hair was all frizzy and wet. oh well. at least she thanked me for being prepared.
