Now a BlenderNation.com editor…

Dear reader and friend,

Just recently a big goal of mine has been reached: I am now a BlenderNation.com editor!  Praise the Lord!  I will be submitting articles under the name “banor,” so be looking out for them! 😉  I greatly appreciate the warmth with which the other BlenderNation editors have greeted me!  (And a big thanks to Bart for letting me join the team!)

NaNoWriMo does not go so well, sadly.  I still only have some 14k+ words, and I need 50k by November 30, 11:59pm, about ten days from now… yikes.  If I am going to make this year’s goal I need to put my nose to the grindstone and get it done.

Been enjoying Playlist.com – very nice for listening to music! 🙂  Still need to check the legality of it.  Check out my playlist here.

Hoping to do some debating soon, with a friend at least.  There is so much to discuss, to decide.  Maybe we are too compliant, or maybe too argumentative and self-centered?

Ah, I love music.

I could tell so much more, but an online blog only yeilds so much privacy, so I will have to deter from family news, highly personal thoughts, etc.

Well, still looking forward to the future in some way… there is always something before me, I just need to reach out and grab it.

And for now, goodnight friend!  Thanks for listening,
Never give up.

Working Towards Rewards

As of the past three weeks I have been working towards getting a DV camcorder.  I am looking at the Everio GZ-HD7 (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/479003-REG/JVC_GZHD7US_GZ_HD7_Everio_60GB_Hard.html) which is much more expensive than anything I had imagined I would look for at this time.

So, with working, events, and living, I find myself in moments of solitude, set apart for God and thinking.  Thinking “do I even want to get that camera?  I’m no sure I care…”, wondering, and praying some.

I will probably get this camera, (praise the Lord!,) I will likely endeavor doing interviews, making films with the members of Minosa Films, my friends and family, and even some commercial work.

But in every new step up in the tower of life, I must recall my duties and check my burdens – have I accomplished all that people have required of me to this moment?  Am I free to move on?  And I must decide and make action upon that conclusion.

I do not want to abandon the talents that have dogged my life so divenely my whole life, but I am eager and curious to move forward in this direction of film making.

Thank you for listening and God bless!

Can’t wait till the future, wondering about it all,
