I just received a phone call from Anisa, a year one student in ‘Moving Images’. She asked if I was willing to act in a short film for the current module that she was taking. Normally, I would find it a compliment when someone thinks of me when they needed help but for this particular favour, I was reluctant to lend a helping hand. She wanted me to help out as I fitted the ‘emo’ character she needed in her short film.
Now, not that I am being a spoilsport but how am I ‘emo’? Do I slit my wrists or wear black eyeliners? I’m not offended though. It’s refreshing to hear people’s opinion of me once in a while. Anyway, I agree to help them out so expect Wednesday’s journal entry to be all about it!
Anyway, today was spent cutting up newspapers and magazines for my ‘Typography and Layout’ journal; I had to cut up typefaces from newspapers and magazines and classify them according to what kind of typeface they were. I left a whole landscape of newspapers and magazines around me. Strangely enough though, I was kind of fascinated by the mess that I had caused and was extremely tempted into taking a snapshot of it all. In the end, I did not do so. I could imagine the horror on my mom’s face when she gets home and sees the trail of ‘destruction’ that I had left. I started to feel a tinge of guilt in me and I made sure that I cleaned up after I was done.
A fine Sunday afternoon spent just like that. Damn…
