I've been sort of between misery and apathy regarding my school work this semester, but at this moment - this brief moment in time - I'm really happy to be studying animation. Two nights ago I was ready to hang myself in the bathroom, I was so tired of working, but tonight I feel good. I obviously don't know the industry side of things, but as a student, it's a really great community to be a part of. So what if my sleep schedule is permanently fucked, it's better than accounting or some equally unfulfilling occupation. That's one thing I never want in life, to work with money. I don't mind living within my means.

To all those who haven't seen it, I recommend Kirikou and the Sorceress. I wish America would produce more meaningful cartoons like this. We should stop hating the French and work together to bring back traditional animation!

Also, please name three things that would be interesting to either animate or animate with. Try to think outside the box with this one.

..............animation might be the most tedious thing I have ever done. I partcially animated the flower petal paintings, and it was just...... so much to do. I really didn't like the process but I liked the end result. I guess I'm not an animator. But then again, it MIGHT have been more pleasant if I was drawing it all out, not cutting, pasting, fusing them together, layers upon layers moving each petal one by one...

Never heard of those animations... (Kirikou, Sorcerss?) but yes, it is kind of sad.. Even Ghibli uses alot of computer animation now. It looks good, and it isn't like those 3D-ish quality that 'Steam Boy" has, but still. Then again, if it makes my life easier, I'll probably use it too.

1) Toilet paper
2) Nostrolls (spelled wrong..?)
3) Kineograph
