I'm pounding the pavement as I wrapped my head with the possibility of STILL not going to VFS. *sigh* It's like I need money to make one of my dreams come true even just a smidgen. I've continued burning the Internet wires checking out job openings from various sites and why I need to be aggressive with this.

Remnants of the negative feelings I had about shifting schedules still left me with a bad taste but I have to overcome them right?! One - I need to show some mental fortitude, really and not balk on the idea that it will send me too early to the grave.... Hokay, (couldn't help catching dvampyrlestat 's favorite expression) getting a tad depressing there for a moment. Two - I need to help Dad and Mom. Three - The world revolves on money. A sad reality. In order to survive, one needs to have money. Sheesh.

With only few days to go, I'm sure a lot of yous are preparing for your respective Halloween parties! While I won't be attending to one this week, or be holding one either, I thought I'd share some more news about VFS Halloween Make-Up Competition. There are already a lot of submitted works to scare you off from your seats. I was! And possibly help you too, for some needed spook stuff inspiration as you go about designing (still!) your scariest costume ever. Check out the entries! Good luck to all the participants!

I had quite an eventful past 2 days. I spent re-visiting  a couple of the tourist attractions in town. For a moment, I felt happy with the direction of my life. I know what I'm embarking is very temporary and hope that my going to  VFS will become a reality. 

Here are a couple of shots I took. Actually, there were a lot but I need those pics elsewhere.
 

I was doing the usual run on visiting VFS page on facebook and they have several short films featured from VFS graduates. Good luck to them.  I have so far seen Missing Alice, which has a psychological feel to it. I liked it too.  I haven't watched Papercut and Iran: A Nation of Bloggers yet. So, my choices can change. The last title made me pause and just hit my curiosity nerve. I'll check the rest out. Still crossing my fingers.

Well, I'm practically carbon-dating myself here. Lolz. But what the heck.  My top 2 favorite shows were My Secret Identity and Rainbow Brite.  Aside from seeing Jerry O'Connell for the first time, ( I haven't seen Stand By Me then) who I thought was a great pick to play Andrew Clemens, I was drawn to the opening jingle of the show. I wish I could put  the lyrics here but the site where I once found with fantastic MSI infos has been taken down. So it's only youtube.

However, I did find the lyrics for the end credit song of Rainbow Brite. And why I liked the show? The song called to me and I was a kid longing for great adventures! Rainbow Brite was my outlet for it. Hahaha. I would imagine I was Rainbow Brite fighting those bad guys.

( Videos and some spreading Star Sprinkles... )

I liked this tag-line of the show. 

I came across this new retelling of one of the several familiar names in Arthurian legend last year and it was great to have seen the show around the early part of 2009.

Good luck to the participants!

An Autumn Event!

This was a kewl interactive game posted on GhostWhisperer twitter page. I got 7out of 12 correct! The new season hasn't started yet so it was pure guess work when I played the game. Apparently, when all 12 items are answered correctly, a "haunting" trailer will be played. Good Luck! I don't think I can stomach a "haunting" trailer. I'm still having flashbacks on seeing MJ's silhouette on Larry King Live clip.

I was checking my routine mails on yahoo when this news caught my attention. If this was a weather disturbance then I feel sad that our Earth is changing because our own attitudes toward the environment are not CHANGING at all.

I had thought when I watched one of CSI: NY techies use his magic touch to access the victim's laptop hard drive, which had been cleared of all files, he still wouldn't be able to retrieve any of stored information and the investigation faced a dead-end. However, several scenes later, the techie reported that he was successful in undeleting- the deleted files! The process was long but most of the information needed on the investigation, was retrieved. I thought it was all Hollywood magic spun to fit the script. I never thought it was true until I came across an article (Recovering Deleted Files and Deleting Securely) prepared by Shil1978.

According to the article, after hitting the delete button or mousing over the file then right-click delete,  doesn't necessarily mean the file was completely deleted. Our computers still have the image of the deleted file on the hard disk. Even reformatting the hard drive wasn't enough to make the file irretrievable, not unless the free space was overwritten with new data. Only then whatever file was deleted will stay gone. So, what are the softwares out there that will help recover data?  The article gave an example called Tune Up Utilities. To read the rest of the article, visit this link. For me, I have not need of this program yet but I'm filing this for future references. ☺

After being 'off-line' for the past three days since my drive C went bonkers, I've slowly began re-installing the rest of the softwares. I'm still searching for Final Draft because I can't find where I put my copy.  I'm also trying to recall the sites I've bookmarked. Sadly, I could only remember a handful of the sites out from loads of links saved.

I've also stumbled across an LJ community called Virtual Mutant, which is a community about virtual TV shows and seasons. One can announce and advertise their favorite virtual shows.  So far, there were several  TV virtual series devoted to Connor (Angel's son) written by  its_art found in nyazian , the Nyazian Prophecies.  Project Paranormal  has cool graphics serving Connor and co.  The Witch series by yosso15 and others I have yet to discover.  Finding these sites make my screenwriting muse tingle with excitement!

Another good community I found is, color_theory, which is a community for photographers to share their original art works and receive feedback on. I just love the scenic photos found here. The community description was on the spot. One could go on a sight-seeing tour here, of course; it's different when the person was actually in that location to capture the moments.

Scriptfrenzy. I forgot how I found this community. Maybe it was during the time I was skimming through the similar interests search field and this popped up. The community has a writing challenge where one writes a 100-page screenplay in 30-days every April. I haven't explored the site thoroughly and I'm intrigued by this contest details.

It never ceases to amaze why people tend to barricade canals of the subdivision. Sheesh. It becomes such a nuisance when at times of typhoons, the floodwaters have nowhere to exit so the waters will rise and enter the houses. The second picture (right) is the street covered with mud. Photos taken Sept. 27, 2009.
