first week

2006-11-15T23:05:00.000-08:00

So Im already into the second week of production and I feel like it has been a month already. I did not think that I would miss LA that much but I do, maybe my friends but I miss being able to drive myself or do things in my own time and schedule... but it has been fun and productive. I have learned a lot just by watching everyone work specially David F., To watch someone that good concentrate and know how his movie will end up looking is amazing, how he lines up shots and does things previsualizing it in the editing room and in the theaters.

This first week a a half has been amazing, a lot of hard work qveraging 14 hour days and shooting at night. but it is cool.. I am greatful for this apportunity and hopefully it will keep on going this good. I will post some pics when I get a chance, and will keep posting updates on how the production is going so far, including BPitt who is a now show so far till thanksgiving.

WOW!

So yesterday, Andy and I went to this Active skate shop and the Stereo Skate team was signing autographs... Jason Lee was there, hes actually pretty tall but super chill and cool... I did not even know he skate till yesterday but it was awsome.. not too busy like i tought it would be but i guess not many people know he skates or at least the people who watch My Name is Earl, i think.. well here is the picture with Chris Pastras and the poster which is hilarious..

I know ive been here for a yer now and still no close friends but its not the same... you are not with people like all the time and work people are still work people so its not the same.. ohh well here are some pics of the great goodbye party we had on friday! i'll miss you guys!

City of Angels... literally!

2006-03-22T20:43:00.000-08:00

so today i was in the hands of angels! i swear! i almost DIED!!!!! it was the worst feeling ever! i was soo nervous and scared it was horrible but thank god im OK now. I was on the freeway and a guy wanted to come to my lane but he did not see me and almost crashed into me, so I tried to avoid him but turned the wheel too hard and then tried to avoid the car on the other side and turned the wheel again but by this time the car was swirling and skidding out of control and i made two 360 turns in the middle of the highway!!!!! it was sooo scary and then the car stopped and when i looked the traffic was coming towards me! all the cars stopped but i was soo lucky that none of them hit me!!! Oh MY God i swear it was horrible and it was so nerve wracking! i am soo lucky i got out with out a scratch on me or on the car or nothing! WOW!! really a city of angels.. the angels were guarding me!

dislocation:

2006-03-05T18:16:00.000-08:00

Dislocation (dislo-kashon) : Displacement of a body part, especially the temporary displacement of a bone from its normal position.

well that is the meaning of what happened to me yesterday... i went off of a jump and landed on my shoulder thus dislocating it and let me tell you it HURT sooo much. never felt this pain before.. but it was fun.. a good story to tell at least i got hurt doing something cool... i got to ride in an ambulace to the hospital which was a pretty awkward experience.. it was all surreal. i felt like i was in a tv show or movie scene a soon as got into the ambulace then got to the ER and it was weird.. the doctor coming in with the interns and stuff and shiwing them how to pop the shoulder back in place.. soo weird... but i was soo dozed off with abou 4 morphine injections but it was painful.

saw the x-rays today and the before and after shots were pretty amazing.. you could see the bone really out of place. it was pretty horrible and now i understand why it hurt soo freaking much.. horrible.. hope it never happens to you or me again.. nw im immobilized for 2 weeks and cant excercise let alone snowboard for 6 weeks!!!! SUCKS!

ohhh welll....
