Thoughts on this point in my life.

With graduation just around the corner, me and big Liz (that's what I call her, it may or may not have caused an eating disorder) are excited as this guy was to film his song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0

Me and Lizzy have worked hard(well she has and I'm very proud of her) and were ready for the world

Many questions have arrived as to what we may do after we graduate. Liz has a great job at Neutron Interactive and will remain there because she is awesome at it. I currently work as a video editor for a company who edits military videos, StoryRock. I plan on staying here a while, but while doing so...Me, my brother Alex and JP(Jordan Peterson not to be confused with Jardine Phepherstine) are starting our own company processing credit cards. So I have my future mapped out for the moment.

As for other, more personal endeavors, I will definitely riding my dirt bike a lot more. Some of you (maybe 7/9) already know I love to ride dirt bikes. I don't consider myself a thrill seeker, but I do love a good thrill http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlDaFYyxDAY .Problem is, all my friends have either became too corporate to ride, or too flaky. It is sad, and I miss those days. I ride alone now, either at the motocross track, or in the open desert (don't worry, if I die I carry my cell phone in my boot.) It is a passion of mine. There is a sense of freedom while on a bike that I have never got from other hobbies, I'll always do it..

I also love movies. I'm not a good movie critic, and am not super insightful, but I have always loved the use of imagination and a good story. I am finally putting my own imagination to some use by writing my own movies. No, I am not banking on this as a career, but my long life dream would be to get something I write on the big screen. Your probably thinking "This guy is weird, and the chances of him making a movie are the same as this hideous wart on my inner thigh disappearing" and you are probably right, but I love doing it and it keeps me motivated in life. My first screenplay was called "The Undaunted" About a bounty hunter in the Old West, who seeks vengeance all the while unaware vengeance is being sought on him. He teams up with a young and adventurous John. His journey comes to a climax as he is forced to fight the men after him and confront his haunting past.

Pretty intense stuff, anyway, I submitted it to a competition for fun and did surprisingly well so I decided to write another. The second was called "Art" and it was a comedy about a rough edged but likable border patrolman who catches David, a young Mexican boy, crossing the border in search of his father. After discovering his father's whereabouts (he is a Mexican game show host) the two journey to confront him. Their friendship blossoms, leading Art to confront his past. (both stories confront troubled pasts, I know). I would love for either John C. Reilly or Jeff Bridges to play the character "Art" (again, just dreaming, but they would be perfect)

I recently submitted both of these to the biggest screenwriting competition in the world. About 7000 entries enter and the first cut reduces entries to about 250. So chances are about 3% to make the first cut, I'm not counting on it. But... If I did, I would be on a great screenwriting path.

Characters are my strong point. I'm alright at creating stories but I have focused on making them unique. Writing is hard and requires a lot of patience, each movie I wrote were about 110 pages each. It took me a little over a year to write both. Screenplays don't read like books(Ever read a screenplay? try it, $1000 says you don't finish it.) What you write is what is on screen, and there is a strict formatting regiment. But I love putting my mind to work and accomplishing something. It's a great feeling to create a story from nothing on my own and I'm proud of the work I have done. I am currently conjuring up a third screenplay idea, suggestions...?

This is me. The dirt-biking-screenwriter with the greatest body I personally have ever seen. And yes, the picture at the top had everything to do with this post.
