Well, the title says it all really. My CFS has just returned almost full throttle and I have no idea why...
At approximately 22:30hrs on Tuesday 22nd February, after a gap of at least a month and a half, possibly a little over two months, my CFS symptoms returned to a level I haven't had for a few months. Moderate Joint and Muscle Pains, Leeching tiredness and general collapse-ification....
Fun times really...
Not all that interesting though.
In other news, today I completed my first French Prelim at Int 2 (Intermediate 2= Slightly higher than Standard Grade, the Int2 course was originally created for people to take as a bridging course from SG to Higher if they only achieved a General Grade). It went pretty well I think, or at least I hope. Although there was one question that I thought was very badly worded and I was confused a bit by it, but I completed the piece with 20 minutes + the entire 40% extra time to spare so I was quite happy :-)
In case any of you are wondering, I'm taking all of my prelims, NABs and other such things at home supervised either by my Tutors or someone from Learning Support.
On Thursday I'm supposed to be going down to another Film Event. I've been invited to go to Glasgow and see the Dewar Arts Awards Film Recipients Showreel, of which some of my older work will be displayed. It's going to be very embarrassing as anyone who's followed my work will know, the newer ones are a thousand times better than the older ones... but hey ho... It'll be a nice event and I might get to see some friends down there.
I also finished off my Manifesto and Profile for SYP sent that off on Sunday (2 days late but oh well)
Finally the most exciting news of the week is... *drum roll*... we had our first Production meeting for the codenamed "Seer" Project. Basically it consisted of five teenagers, sitting round a table in my half built kitchen, having lunch, drinking tea and randomly throwing ideas at each-other. It was actually very productive and within four weeks you will all see the first sneak preview of what is to come. Our Script-Writer Hannah Doughty has already been hard at work filling out my very rough ideas. Devon Barnett the amazingly talented composer who actually co-created the music for my latest short, is also now working on some general melodies and Josephine Sillars the equally talented Lyricist has tonight begun work on the first Solo/Duet and group piece. It's all starting to come together. Oh and I almost forgot, Andrew Berry decided to gatecrash for some free food but actually much to his surprise came up with some very good ideas.
Which reminds me... Andrew and I are starting (before the end of the month hopefully) a project for my YouTube channel where we put out weekly videos with VFX etc... So give us a subscribe in anticipation :-)
Please subscribe to this blog and the Cerberus Film's one, or my Twitter account @cerberusfilms as theses (most likely my twitter) will be the first places I announce any updates on the film. In fact I think I might go and do one right now since I can't sleep... damn CFS....
Much Love My Friends
