New job

Super sad that yesterday was my last day at the Provo City Library..... I have been there for nearly 4 years, and it will be weird to think that I won't be working there anymore.  Allison is still there, so I am married in at least.  After one of my classes ends at the end of October, I'll be volunteering at the library, (big smiley face) and hopefully in different departments than where I was able to work before.

I have now finished two whole weeks at my new job and am very excited to only be working one job and going to school.  Over the last two weeks I worked 66 hours at my new job and 52 hours at my old job... 118 hours in two weeks... Plus classes! I'm surprised I got as much done as I did in that time. Now I have a little more freedom and a bit more sleep too.

It has been fun taking the two classes that I have right now, Concept Design for Entertainment (i.e. Film, tv, animation...) and Storyboarding for animation.  They are a lot of fun and the type of stuff I have wanted to do since I was very little.  I was the weird kid that loved the same cartoons as you, but was almost more interested in how they were made and upset that we didn't get to see all the other art that was made. I found out at a very young age that when you watch a movie or a tv show, there is a lot that they don't get to show you.  I always felt ripped off that I couldn't see the rest of it and sad that I would probably never get to go to California to see it...

...fast forward to present day and the internet. I can see tons (literally) of production art that never makes it on the air. It is indeed a wonderful time that we live in.

On another note, our mouse is dead, he got into the poison our landlord put out before we moved in. We will be working on his funeral soon.
