My take on the iWatch. I really need the larger iPhone, not that i desire it, my eyes are aging and it would be helpful. Problem:the larger one will not fit in womens jean pockets easily. Put in purse and I won't know when I have a message plus I rarely carry a purse and that sucker won't fit in a wristlet. What the watch would do is tell me that I should check my phone. Just the thought of that makes my head hurt.

There's an accessibility option that lets you make the text size bigger if that's what you need. I feel your pain; I've been farsighted my whole life. I dread what my vision will be like when I'm older. Comes with its perks, though; my distance vision is excellent.

Phones cannot get any larger. My mom's Samsung Galaxy Express, which is the size of the regular iPhone 6, is as large as can fit in this little beauty I bought myself in Disney:

Also is the largest size that can fit in my Vera Bradley wallet that was given to me for graduation. My iPod and phone already don't fit in my shorts pockets. Can't imagine phones being any bigger.

Interesting. I don't think I've ever smelled raw tobacco, anything similar to? I've never minded the smell of tobacco burning, now a room full of smoke of any kind and yah gag, including being on the wrong side of the pond at illuminations. I love love love the smell of freshly ground coffee.

Hmmm...
Can't think of anything it's similar to, off the top of my head.
I never smoked regularly, but, used to do a little happy hour smoking way back in the day.
I used to really like the smell of a freshly opened pack.

I really like that little bag you bought. Most of the Disney stuff they sell, I don't care for, but that little bag is a cutie. I don't have a smart phone, but I'd use a little bag like that to carry a few items. A long time ago, I read that a large bag means that you have a lot of money, versus a little one which means you don't have much money at all. So a little bag applies to me, I guess! :happy:

As a college student, time is a luxury I don't have. Therefore, I have to limit the amount of shows I watch, especially since most are on during the semester. So a show has to really appeal to me for me to try to watch it. So basically Last Man Standing and Hawaii Five-0, which are on Friday nights when I have time, Once Upon a Time, which is on Sunday nights but I would still make the time for, and BBT and NCIS: Los Angeles. I stopped watching the original NCIS since they got rid of Ziva and don't think I'll get into the new one, at least not right away. I sometimes watch Dancing with the Stars with my mom, sometimes half watching it and half doing my homework, but it looks like I'm going to be working Mondays nights starting in a few weeks.

What kind of job did you get? Is it a campus job, or something from the private sector instead? One night a week shouldn't impact your study schedule too much. It's good that you'll have some balance between school and work life, and that also looks positive to prospective employers, after you graduate. Good for you. :)

My sister just knows all the tricks on how to get these. The movie was low budget and story driven. Unknown actors but I think they may be nominated for an academy award - the acting was that good! The script was text book example of all the basic storytelling elements I learned when I minored in film making at UCF. Between this and what I saw last night, I'm hoping to get out of my writer's block and finally get back to writing the screenplay I started writing some years ago. By the way, the story and characters for this screenplay is in my head. My writer's block has to do with the specific mechanisms that drive the motives behind the characters and specific functionary plot elements of the protagonist and the antagonist. As I began writing it, I realized the wrong characters took on these functions. Fixing it requires switching some character traits around with certain characters and story elements have to reworked because of it.

I can't just finish it without actually "seeing" it in my head first and be able to critique it with high ratings as if I was actually in the theater watching it for my first time.

Here's what I'm doing differently than other screen writers. Other writers write screenplays and hope to sell them to a studio. If a studio buys it, they just go on and write another screenplay, which may sell or may not. Once it's sold, it's out of the writer's hands and the studio then owns the rights. Most screenplays that studios buy never ever get produced. Basically, a screenwriter's career is to write and write and write and that writer would be lucky to ever see anything written actually produced. In other words, most writers' careers are driven by quantity of work, not quality of work. Since actual production costs are paid for by the studio, writers write without any regard to the actual cost required to produce it.

I'm writing with quality of the story and its delivery as the most important factor. Second, I want to actually direct this and produce it myself. That said, I'm writing while being cost-conscious all the while. Telling the best story the best way possible with the smallest budget possible - kind of like my California trip.

I built a 3D computer editing system and I own 3D HD cameras. I figured out a way to project 3D HD video without the need to where glasses to see it. I am in the process of patenting it and my next business will be based on the sale of these systems for both home and theaters. The film I am making will show off the 3D system and what its potential is. Everything I do is with that goal in mind.

You're lucky to have such a helpful sister! :) As for the rest of your message, best of luck to you in your screenwriting efforts.

As usual, you have a lot of things going on; and it's sometimes a challenge to attempt to keep up with the content of some of your posts (a few of them, I've had to read more than once, to follow the information you shared ;) :jawdrop: ). What I can always count upon is that you continue to surprise us with unexpected topics at times, and that makes for "lively" reading, I must say! :D

Yeah. That's me. Any way, when I get a presentable draft going of my screenplay, I would like to get everyone's input. It won't be for a while, unless I just write it nonstop one night. I got an idea!

In my advanced screenwriting class, we would write about 20 pages at a time and have a group discussion about it. Why don't I do that? Write 20 pages and post it and discuss it, write another 20 pages, etc. until it's done. The ongoing input would drive me to finish it!

On campus. Making fundraising calls. It'll be probably Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays or Sundays.

Thanks. I bought the matching purse and wallet last year with money given to me for graduation, so I decided to go with the smartphone case as well. :)

After waking up at 3:00 am in Vancouver, getting 2 hours delays (for up to 10 hour flight) in Calgary (Calgary had record snow levels today). We finally arrived!

unfortunately as expected, the cold hit me big time (sore throat + stomach flu).

I'm limping while trying to send my important files back to the main computer from the surface pro 3.. so I can start working again tomorrow (egads.)

Hope you're feeling better today. :)
