I'm so fucking bored at home its not funny

I need to find work, i chanced upon an ad by some NTU students looking for a soundman for a 5 day shoot and decided to apply

Yesterday was my assessment and to be honest, I was a little intimidated by the setup. 3 lecturers sitting in a panel and I had to face them and surprisingly enough, i had 80% praises and 20% criticisms from the most critical person in the school.

I pretty much got screwed for the directing exercise which i felt wasnt that good either. But he gave me some really good comments about my solo project (Staring Into The Sun_) and based on the feedback by the lecturers, he said i have a very good eye for detail, the structure and intensity was good and a lot of other stuff HOWEVER, the emotional aspect was lacking. I guess thats why I just hate acting. let alone in my own film lol.

Then the best part was when he was talking about my grades. First he said my grades were fine, then he said they were excellent, then he said i topped my batch HAHAHA WTF.

And then they went thru my research journal thingy and deduced that I will never be a producer. Herman then asked me where do i see myself going, and to that I said i'm still trying to decide between sound design, cinematography and directing and he asked me to take my time to discover and to also help out with the seniors for their projects.

It was a pretty good, laidback session haha but wtf i topped my batch???! Oh and Herman told me not to let my head swell up. I just hope that wont happen either.

One down, 5 more to go.
