Happy Thanksgiving. Fuck You MIchael Bay.

Thanksgiving holiday was exactly the rest I needed before finals. It is the second biggest friends/family reunion weekend of the year next to Christmas. I made great memories this weekend and I'm very thankful for that.

One thing I've been wanting to talk about is Michael Bay. He is a fucker. He, much like Brittany Spears, is a person who should not be famous. I'm trying to make it into Hollywood and it is very discouraging to see an idiot who has been twice nominated for Worst Director be paid millions for cranking out shit quality films. Don't get me wrong, he's technically sound and knows his stuff. That's what pisses me off even more. When a person who has all the necessary qualities to make a great movie still gets praise for putting shit on the screen, I lose my fucking mind. I know many of you are asking, "How do we stop this? How do we stop this fucker from directing another movie and raping the eyes of many unsuspecting viewers?" Easy. We hunt him down, castrate him, and put him in jail. Yes? Who's in?

A Breath of Fresh Air

This weekend was by far one of the most enjoyable ones I've had in a long time. Since I started school at CSUN, I've been having problems being myself. At CSUN, I had turned into an awkward depressed hermit for a while. I was very afraid that I was so used to being this person that I wouldn't remember how to be myself anymore. This fear was reinforced when I came back home during the weekends the same weird person I was in school.

Thank God for good friends. After spending the weekend surrounded by friends, I was finally myself again. I could feel the nervousness and self consciousness leave me. Thank you to all the friends that helped me find myself again. I'm confident now that no matter who I turn into, the real Stephen will always be waiting inside ready to be used like an emergency jet pack.

Sweet Week

This week turned out to be pretty fun. When I returned Sunday night, I went to the beach with Brandon, Hannah, Jason, and Keysi. It was very nice at the beach despite the cold and the pollution. We went back to the dorms and had hookah until we fell asleep. I learned a lot about my dorm floor mates that night.

One day later, I hosted a kickback at my dorm. There was lots of alcohol and potential to be a great night. But the kickback was cut severely short by the RA's. They rang the door and some idiot screamed "IT'S THE RA GUYS!" The RA's ended up busting the party and making me pour out all the alcohol. I spent the rest of the night in an angry funk while the rest of the people walked around campus drunk. Someone barfed. I will not say her name but it sounds like Hannah.

Friday was pretty sweet. I spent a good hour and a half playing Razor Golf with Benji and Mike. This is where we try to hit the golf ball into a cup while riding a scooter. Sadly, no one got hurt. Afterwards, I went to a kick back at Zandra's. She is a really cool friend in my AAS class. The kickback was to comemmorate how sexy I am. It was fun. I wished I could have stayed longer. Also I owned Zandra in "shotgun" that night.

Saturday was packed with activities. I had brought Miguel back home with me in hopes to see him eat shit snowboarding. But snowboarding got cancelled. Boo. I spent most of the afternoon buying Tiffany's gift for her Birthday party that night. I also visited my good friend Sam's parents to plan for his return on December 4th. We played guitar hero. I rocked the mike.

Tiffany's shindig at Anthony's house was so awesome, it derserves a paragraph all by itself. There was so much alcohol and people. I hugged so many random people. It was ridiculous. I think the hilight of the night was where I made 8 out of my team's 10 cups to win beerpong. I also made 4 out of 6 celeb shots. The lowlight of the night was when Anthony decided to pee in a cirle in the back yard, showing everyone his hairy kazoo. I guess it's not a party unless Anthony shows some part of his body...

Today is Sunday and Nine Finger is doing the first shoot of the music video for the Nehemiah Band. This should prove to be interesting.

Projects

For this month, I have many ongoing projects. For one, I'm shooting a music video during the weekends for my production group. Working again will be fun. I'll be lighting in daylight for the first time and I think I'm up for the challenge.

I'm also not shaving for this whole month. I'm trying to grow a beard to show my friend who's coming back from his mission this December. So far I'm on day 6 and I must say, the girls are really responding. . . Just not in a good way.

Finally, I'm doing that master cleansing once more. This is where I don't eat for about 10 days while drinking a lemon, honey, and cyan pepper concoction. I'm doing this because I'm losing control over what I eat and I need to regain control of my eating habit. This should be fun. Expect crying.

My biggest project is to heal my body. My dislocated wrist and missing toenail needs to heal and re-grow for the coming snowboard season. This might not go well with my starving project. Wish me luck.

Winter is here. But I'm not.

My first semester at CSUN is almost at an end and I'm still trying to find some solid ground. I think I can only be myself when I'm comfortable and I've spent many years being comfortable with very little change in life. Now, I'm in a world where there's something new everyday and I can't seem to get accustomed to it. I constantly find myself feeling out of place and left out. I hope all I need is time.

On another note, Halloween weekend was enjoyable in a way I hadn't expect. Though I didn't get drunk like I planned, I enjoyed the company of my friends and family very much. Here are some memorable quotes:
