Officially finished with The Train Tribe

January 28th is a good day because:
A)I am officially finished with version 1 of The Train Tribe. It is fifty four minutes and twenty nine seconds. The second version will be pretty similar but it will be about one hundred minutes.
B) I had frozen yogurt today. I mixed mango sorbet with french vanilla.
C) We have a show tonight, show 4 of 8 for University of Oregon's Rock 'n' Roll by Tom Stoppard. WHOO
D) I am actually studying for my midterm.
E) It is a sunny day in the typically rainy, always cloudy Eugene, Oregon.

Notes on A)
If granted permission to use music by Beach House, then I will be hosting several screenings and will post the posters on my blog once it all happens. (When, not if I hope).

Last Minutes with ODEN

Last Minutes with ODEN from phos pictures on Vimeo.


I found this gem about a year ago on vimeo I believe? Anyway I watched it over and over and every time I couldn't help but cry. I refound this on the vimeo awards- Last Minutes with ODEN won the vimeo award for best documentary!
Even though I don't necessarily believe in religion, however the principle of God is so beautiful. By allowing yourself to surrender to whoever created this universe, and believing the creator still holds more is not only humble but makes you feel like you're not alone.
For me, when I'm alone hiking I don't feel alone because the trees, the wind, or the next waterfall seem alive.
