Rules........Bleah!

For this assignment I will just post the ones that anger me as i come across them since I always seem to be about to break a rule of some kind.


Rules that suck:

1. If you need a letter of recommendation for financial aid to go on a trip and you ask the person leading the trip for a letter, as long as they aren't the person who decides who gets money, they should be able to write you a letter if they know you have need of the financial aid. Politics suck!

2. I really dislike the school telling me what i can and cant make movies about. Im not a documentary student. be as it may that im in a documentary program its all i can do to tolerate the fact that im in a documentary program and the school telling me i cant have certain things in my movies only stifles my creativity even more. Im film bound so let it be known to all that i dont play by rule and i will make movies about what ever i decide to and will have guns, violence and profanity. and wait till me capstone! im going to be 50 miles south of that line im "not" supposed to cross! so i say to our very own local fcc, screw censorship! you cant censor something that you cant keep up with!

3. so i was finishing up a project today and i was trying to park in a 20 min loading zone spot outside the herron building. apparently, the herron lot is a pay only lot on the weekends. Fuckin hippies! anyways, i dont need a permit, or should i have to pay to park in a 20 min loading spot that doesn't require a iupui parking pass during school hours. So to those at herron, you cant expect a formal complaint in the very near future. And btw... New Media is an art school! OMG>>> NO HE DIDNT! Media Arts and Sciences Biatch! so to those at herron, i share my controversy with you as i say your hypocrites and have more red tape than any art school should have which diminishes your program. It is the red tape that made me choose New Media which in the long run will be better for me than herron would have ever been! So, schools shouldn't be able to have their own parking fees separate from what i already pay the university.

this is the kind of crap i have to deal with daily, its a wonder i havent snapped already!



Rules that i think should exist:

1. People who make dumb decisions or choices on a regular basis (every 5 minutes) should recive a giibs slap to the head every half hour until they learn to stop doing dumb stuff. (this only applies to people who really know better but still choose to be dumb, not to people who don't know better.)

2. I should be allowed creative freedom within reason. Just because Its a documentary program doesn't mean i cant be highly volatile and explosive on the drop of a hat!

3. beyond denouncing the government we should be able to write what we want at democracy plaza without the university paying someone to monitor us and sensor issues that gives the university bad press because that is all they are worried about, how they look, not about our rights. So with out declaring a jihad or some other anti america protest we should be able to write what ever we want, isn't that why we are fighting over seas, so that we can continue to spew opinions that piss everybody off.

Response to class on the 26th

Class was pretty crazy yesterday. I did enjoy hearing what the others in the class did their egg projects on and the circle arrangement we were in made the whole presentation as well as the introduction process easier and more helpful. I heard that crazy stuff happens in this class and i got a little taste of the crazy doing the egg project, cant wait to see what is next!

A day in the life of a New York egg:

Based on a true story!

The other day I visited with my buddy G. He is an egg living in New York city. We went to see a movie and Gwas telling me about how when he first came to New York he wanted to be a movie star.

 He told me about all the parts he played. After the movie we went to Radio City Hall and to Central Park. G told me that after a while he wasn’t feeling the movie scene as much. He was however getting into music. G and I went to a jam session where he and his producer worked on a song for the album he was about to come out with.

 G was different from when he left, but he was different in a good way, he was achieving success. G was telling me he was performing as a guest at a concert the next night and he invited me to come. The next night We went to the concert, G got me back stage and we had a blast. I have to say G is a great performer. G Preformed his favorite song from his album as a preview for the upcoming release. My trip to New York was awesome, the lights inspire many people I know because being there and seeing G do his thing made me want to do the same, to leave home and go to the big city to make something of myself.
