It is summer time which means lots of time for random conversation. For some reason people always ask the magical question about pinpointing one favorite movie. And answering it is no easy task. No walk in the park.
But I’ve finally got an answer for you so stop asking!
I know it is already July 16, but there are still a few things I want to before its all over.
READ! - I started reading a great book about Jim Palmer and Earl Weaver over my vacation in North Carolina. It is an awesome read, but I’m just a bad book reader. I want to finish it soon and I have a few other books I would like to read before I go back to school.
Modify my car - So far I have tinted the windows and added an antenna and a German plate to my 04 Passat. I’ve got lots of ideas of what is next, I just need to financially be able to do make them all happen. There is a VW Show in York, PA on August 2nd that I plan to attend and a huge show on September 28 in Ocean City that I would like to go to.
Save some cash - This might conflict with my second goal, but I would like to put away some money for the school year. So far I have been pretty good about saving, I just need to continue it.
Learn to cook - When I first moved into my apartment I ate horribly, because I had never cooked a decent meal in my life. It was frozen burritos and canned foods for quite some time. It drove me crazy. So I have been learning to cook a few little things as I go and I hope to keep that going. I make pretty good chicken quesadillas, chicken tacos, and have even baked cookies. I don’t expect to be an expert, I just want to have a good foundation of meals for the next school year.
Keep zamwi moving - I have a lot of goals for this blog. It took a bit of time off but I want to make sure that does not happen anymore. I would like to do more video work on the site, because that is where the internet is moving and an area that I love. I want to try and post good information as well as keeping my friends who are all over the world updated with what is going on in my life.
Document - I bought a Flip camera about a month ago just for fun. I have been carrying it with me everywhere and it has become a part of my day. I want to film some of the exciting parts of my life and share them right here.
Take advantage of every free second - I stay up late and sleep in, but I want to make sure that any free time I have I take advantage of. So far I’ve been to North Carolina, New York City, Washington D.C., and Hershey Park twice. I’d say I’m off to a good start.
So that’s where I am. I’ll check back at the end of August to see how I did.
What do you want to do with the rest of your summer?
This is an experimental video I shot on a Panasonic P2 and Canon GL2. You can definitely see the difference between the two cameras. One is the best HD camera on the market and the other is a low end 3 CCD camera. I did my best to match it up. Essentially this project was just to give a location a certain feel. I chose a garage and went with a dark/lonely idea.
I first saw this commercial while going to see a movie. I’ll never forget it. I was walking past the concession stand (who wants to spend 9 bucks on a soda?) and I caught it out of the corner of my eye. I stopped and watched it because it was amazing.
Its been a terribly long time since I’ve published here and for that I am sorry. I know a lot of people came here to keep up with what I have been up to and I want zamwi to be just that from now on.
I am five weeks into my 4th semester at Towson University, making me a Sophomore. In case you didn’t know I am an Electronic Media and Film major. I’m taking 4 EMF classes this semester and am finally doing hands-on production work.
I will be working for the Mid-Atlantic Sports Network again for the Orioles Xtra Pre/Post game show. I just heard that MASN is broadcasting 80 games in high definition, kudos to them for making the transition in only their second full year as the Orioles and Nationals all access channels.
This summer I will be living in the Towson area to work here, so I just finished up all the fun paper work for my first apartment (I currently live on campus). I will live with 2 friends from work from May - August, then move in with my friend Mike for the start of my junior year.
If I thought life was busy before it is about to get a whole lot crazier. There are 162 baseball games between April and September, I have a few select weekends off. Which means a lot of baseball, a lot of work, a lot of school, and not a lot of sleep.
But I love it. This is what I want to do, no complaints.
Sorry for the minimal updates, I promise to be here more often. I know there are a lot of people I haven’t talked to in a while, leave me a comment or shoot me an email!
