Crazy AniMINTees



My schedule for the past week did not work out. It's my "fault" I went to SF Friday night to party with classmates, but I had allowed for that in my plan. Stuff got kinda out of hand at home Friday and Saturday and my AM assignment suffered. Those kind of things that I have no control over are what mess me up. Still, I did put some serious time into it at the last minute and managed to get most of my mentors changes in. The past 4 weeks have been murder for getting any homework done, and it's been bumming me out turning in poo week after week. Even though it wasn't as much as I'd planned I think I made more progress this week than the weeks prior. The shot is (finally) starting to come together.

Last Friday night's party at The Mint was extreme-to-the-max-ridiculous-cool fun. I hesitated at first driving all that way, but glad I did. Aside from the crazy ani"Mint"ees that made it out, some of our favorite AM staff, Becky, Luis and Taylor, plus mentor Bret Parker and Carlos. I didn't get faded enough to perform and the one time I was requested as backup the kj stopped me and everyone behind me from going onstage. Very small stage, I guess there was a limit. Often when I go to these things I forget to take my camera out. This time I tried to take as many photos as possible. Though I wouldn't exactly call them Kodak moments, there were plenty of photo opportunities with everyone--onstage or not--hamming it up. All the incriminating pix are here.
