All Nighters
So, I’ve been up for about 18 hours straight. Most of that has been working on my thesis project, though a good deal was dance practice and playing a bit of soccer with friends. Surprisingly, I’m not that tired, just feeling crummy. I wore flip-flops to the field and played barefoot on cold astroturf. Now my nose is a little runny and my throat itchy. Bad news…and the caffeine dosage I drank is not helping.
Anyway, Petunia (my thesis character for those who don’t know) is coming along well. I’m almost half way finished with the entire film, but it will still take a lot of work to make it shine just right. Finally relaxing about the entire thing and just going for it has helped me find enjoyment in the project. I think my anxiety and stress was really holding back the creative flow that I needed, so I’m glad to take a breather now and just animate. This scripture in John 14:1 was actually what helped me relax: “Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God and in me.”
