Film #2


Almost Famous may have changed my life. This was around the time I was learning about music and discovering I could think OUTSIDE of the radio box. 20 years old is a time when you're really trying to figure out who you are and this kind of helped me on my path. It's moving, beautiful and sad all at once. This makes me want to go home and watch it again just for that reason.

Graphic Design #2


I've been running since 9th grade. My basketball coach told me I had to or else I couldn't make Varsity. Running more than 1 mile seemed close to impossible. By college, I was running about 2.5 miles a day. I used to actually hold a walkman CD player in my hand while I ran and I thought 2.5 miles was SOOOO far. When I moved to Las Vegas, I started running 3 miles a day. I would time it so that I would start my run 30 minutes before the television show The OC would start, that way my runs would be really fast so I wouldn't miss anything. 2 years ago, I started running a lot. A lot a lot. I ran the 3M half marathon in 2 hours and 11 minutes in January of 2009. Now I am training for the Austin Marathon. On February 20, 2011, I will run 26.2 miles in just one day. It will probably take me close to 5 hours. I am really scared, but also really excited to take on the challenge.
