The last half of the year; the top 5 things to do.

So it’s June 1st! [Ed's note, finished writing this on the 2nd cause I got distracted half way through last night] I’m pretty happy about that. It means the second half of the year has started. Okay technically it’s still the first half of the year, but I’ve always thought of June as being the beginning of the second half of the year ever since I could remember. Probably has something to do with the weather back home.

The second half of the year is a pretty good stretch for me. It’s when I’m at my best; I’m totally fired up, motivated like hell to do something. I just don’t have that in the first half of the year. Most of the time I’m simply trying to work out just what is going on. You know, like see what kind of year it’s going to be, and sort out what the fashions are. For some reason that seems important, trying to keep up with the fashions. I never do, but then it’s not through lack of trying, just through a lack of money. If I could, I’d camp out at the front of the big Martinique store on Leidsestraat at the beginning of every new season and as soon as the doors open, run in and power shop. But yeah, cash is my limiting factor, it’s an expensive business looking good in Europe.

So I figure this second half of the year I will be able to acheive three of the five things.

* Finish the screenplay.
* Finish the short novel.
* Make a contact in the Amsterdam film/tv industry.
* Speak dutch.
* Own a cool new style-master jacket.

I really hope number 5 is in there, I could really do with a new jacket.

Padwanna!
