Monday's Recommendation: Movie Night

Ok so I simply can't let this movie pass without exclaiming to high heaven at how good it was!

The Avengers was possibly one of the most awesome Superhero movies yet!
Of course the second I saw Joss Whedon's name attached to it then it had no choice but to be brilliant. 

I don't want to spoil anything at all so...

I'll just say that this is great action, brilliant comedic moments and well the picture below made me giggle:

How can you resist? 

I got all these pictures from Google, though I guess the second one is originally from 9gag.

Seattle and my darling Jess

Jess's dogs. The sweetest pair.

 

And Jess with them.

 

This is the Public Market where they toss fish and yell out at each other. 

 

The Space Needle! So nice. 

 

Here's the EMP Museum. Where a special Nirvana display was up. 

 

The Troll in Freemont. 

 

Seattle!!! So much fun!

The New Orleans bar was great fun with some good music. 

 

We ended the night at the Sorrento Hotel and then at Vito's. 

Sorrento Hotel had a great lounge band and an even more amazing bread pudding with whiskey and almond ice cream. So, so amazing!

Vito's had some good cocktails and, get this, there was a Cougar Room. Yes... That's pretty brilliant.

Mini Vacation Weekend

This was a lovely week off and I enjoyed every minute spent with Boy (I can't help but be extra happy for the plus time spent with that darling).
 
I am so, so, soooo excited for tomorrow. I'm off to Seattle just for the weekend before the school starts once again to see my amazing dearest best friend, Jess.

Such an amazing gentleman!

Missing the little things

I'm on vacation for a week at the moment. I do like the rest but I'm already starting to feel a little bored. It's strange to go from working all the time to no work at all. Thankfully I recieved an email from the Game department at my school about a game collaboration I'm doing with a group of game designers over there.
I'm going to be creating the sound for their final game and couldn't be more excited about it! The only unfortunate side is that it is a full game with lots of sound and I'm the only person that it completely on my own in desinging all the sound for the full game. Everyone else is in groups of two.
I'm going to need to call on all of my organization skills to get everything going smoothly and keep my game friends happy. But I am quite excited.

Ever find yourself missing the little things in life? I feel like that is what I miss most of all about my home. And it's usually when I'm bored that I realize these things.

I miss finding my kitty in bizarre sleeping positions. Strange no?

But how could you resist the cuteness of it all????

2nd Shoot at VFS

So this was one of the film students apartments and our first set for the second shoot. 

 

Look at these fantastic lobby areas. Such a nice place. 

 

R was very upset with how small the apartment was. And he was right, we were practically sitting on top of each other, all of us watching the actors who somehow managed to make the room look bigger. 

 

Pug not Drugs with a godly shine behind him. 

And below is our 2nd set. 

A restaurant actaully right outside Boy's house. Small world.

J darling with his dazzling smile. 

 

Yes the sound department does wait around a lot. Even more than alot actually...

 

Water tower! 

 

Such a lovely lane. It really makes me think of a newspaper boy's route in all those old fashioned movies.

And this was the last set.

 

Just the camera crew setup and below the grip doing his duty. 

 

All in all it was a pretty great shoot with a crew that didn't really get along with each other but got along with us just great.
