http://wakingupinbrooklyn.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Waking Up In Brooklyn. Musings, meditations, and mishaps from living in New York City. Monday, June 28, 2010. The Power of the Network. Well I've officially begun my first "period of unemployment,". As promised by the DGA training website. So with my free time, I've been taking the opportunity to better understand the nature of the job and connect with friends in the City. It's pretty much guaranteed that I will be a paperwork PA on my first gig. Why? Friday, June 25, 2010. Just a Leisurely Stroll. The p...

Waking Up In Brooklyn. Musings, meditations, and mishaps from living in New York City. Monday, March 12, 2012. Oh, that should help market. The Dictator. Republicans and Democrats duked it out till the eleventh hour on a debt ceiling deal? If it's anything like Nucky Thompson's office, can't we just call in our stand-by construction guys to pull the ceiling? There were riots in the UK? UhI worked for some Brits. Got a week between that and The Dictator. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Waking Up In Brooklyn. Musings, meditations, and mishaps from living in New York City. Thursday, January 26, 2012. Out of the Frying Pan, Into the Fire. Well I'm now a little over a week removed from the working life. Time to kick up my feet, take a load off, lay back, rest up, stress out.wait, what? Yeah, hard to say it but as hard as working life is, the hangover that ensues when you're dropped from employment cold turkey can at times be worse. Eat bologna. I was home.

Waking Up In Brooklyn: Back in Business
http://wakingupinbrooklyn.blogspot.com/2012/03/back-in-business.html
Waking Up In Brooklyn. Musings, meditations, and mishaps from living in New York City. Saturday, March 3, 2012. It must be weird," my brother said to me. "You go from 0% to 100% back to 0%.". I scratched my days' old beard growth and thought to myself, I need a job. It is the sad truth of this existence I lead. When I am working, I am non-stop for about 3-4 months. But then when I'm not working, days go by without me even realizing it. It's the weekend? I've begun writing again, anything to occupy my time.

Waking Up In Brooklyn: An Up-At-Dawn, Pride-Swallowing Siege That I Will Never Fully Tell You About
http://wakingupinbrooklyn.blogspot.com/2012/01/up-at-dawn-pride-swallowing-siege-that.html
Waking Up In Brooklyn. Musings, meditations, and mishaps from living in New York City. Tuesday, January 17, 2012. An Up-At-Dawn, Pride-Swallowing Siege That I Will Never Fully Tell You About. There's really no easy way to describe my current state of life. There always comes a time in every job, sometimes it is the entirety of the job, where you just set your speed to ludicrous speed. And I suppose it's a misnomer to call it ludicrous speed. And so, another day has passed in the process of writing this p...

Waking Up In Brooklyn. Musings, meditations, and mishaps from living in New York City. Tuesday, July 27, 2010. In the meantime, I'm going to shadow a second-year DGA trainee, who's working on a film called "Premium Rush"—starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt. I'm pretty psyched to see a real set operate. I'll be starting that up next week when I get back. It definitely ranks up there as one of the more bizarre moments of my life. Sunday, July 25, 2010. Fleas and Brute Force. Monday, July 19, 2010. Now that the m...

Waking Up In Brooklyn. Musings, meditations, and mishaps from living in New York City. Thursday, September 23, 2010. Or The Importance of Being on Time. Note: I started this post last night after I got home from work. I promptly fell asleep (as you will soon understand why). So for chronological accuracy pretend like this post actually went up last night. See you next week." Whoa. Sunday, September 12, 2010. A Long Time Coming. Sure," I said. As it turned out, she had a great time working on the movie...

Waking Up In Brooklyn. Musings, meditations, and mishaps from living in New York City. Sunday, October 24, 2010. Paperwork Manifesto (Part 2). I was on the phone with mom today and she said, "People have been asking if you're still alive? BE A TEAM PLAYER. And from what I've gathered, that's a lot of what this whole industry is about.allegiances. Especially when your job is an all-consuming one, it's good to have people at work that you like and that you trust. DON'T COUNT YOURSELF OUT. I dumped stacks o...

Waking Up In Brooklyn. Musings, meditations, and mishaps from living in New York City. Thursday, February 16, 2012. It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World. Regardless, after a week skiing in Colorado with the fam, I stopped briefly in Pittsburgh to watch the Super Bowl with the folks I spent each Sunday with during the regular season, before heading back up to New York to move back into my apartment. And what a time to be in New York! I got a call no less than 10 minutes later. "Be there at 5:30am." Yikes! But asi...
