Terrance Zdunich: Face sucking, dry humping and fist shaking.

That pretty much sums up my weekend.

I went to San Antonio's Shadow Cast production for "Repo! The Genetic Opera" where the Co-creator Terrance Zdunich attended.The casting itself was alright; I can imagine the costume changes and the overall overtone of the production is hectic but...meh.

It was worth the drive.

After the show we had a meet and greet where I, being at the end of the line, commenced to dance and sing to various songs such as "Smooth Criminal" "Thriller" "Pocket full of sunshine" and various Qntal. I yelled and talked, sang and touched everyone that walked by. Then it was my turn to shake his hand.

I had done a project submission for him recently and when I told him my name he knew instantly. I felt special when he jumped up and quite literally glomped me in front of everyone who looked at me like I destroyed the planet.

I talked to him for a good 5 minutes about Art and his projects with the exception of Repo. It was mentioned to me later he must have appreciated the topic change. After that we took photos together, one of which he had his lips planted on my face for a minute while they took pictures. I then got dry humped and...well...feeling in the spirit of things, I licked his face. Yes...licked.

During our talks, I felt like I was looking in a mirror because sitting in front of me was someone who shared the same creative soul.

On Saturday we had another sort of smaller "Come talk to me" session where; again being last, I talked to him about the "how".

"Please explain to me how you started or rather what kind of avenues you had to travel to get from 'point-nothing to point-finished."

At first it started out as a conversation about him just being persistent with his endeavors. He had me explain my reasoning for asking and I suppose I led him to believe that my own path is one of financial gain. Or that's how he took it.

He saw something in me I didn't know was there and it freaked me out a little bit. While him and I share the same creative soul it was obvious to HIM that I was approaching it from the wrong direction and he told me thus.

"Bev, you're wrong."

He essential told me this, which I am going to share with you because I think it's very important.

"If you love what you are doing, then do it. It shouldn't be about the money or relying on someone to provide the way for you. If you want something, make the opportunities for yourself.

If you're an animator, then do an animation. You don't have to wait...yeah, its going to be difficult but it's worth it. It's worth watching it come to life. Same with Comic books, live action and art in general."

I later thanked him for telling me what I needed to hear instead of some sugar-coated hulla-balloo.

He said "Don't give up and good luck"I officially have a lot of respect for this man and maybe one day, we'll be sharing ideas.

The job train has passed me by!

Aloha fellow humans!

I am in need of work and like so many of you I have scoured the internet, put in hundreds of applications, placed my lovingly crafted resume in the hands of indifferent old men and I am at my wits end.

I can't take this "sitting around doing nothing" bit any longer.

So here I am, pleading with the blog community to **LOOK OVER HERE**!! I need YOU...yes, YOU!

I am a creative mind but it's been blocked by being bored! I always wanted to be a designer of some kind. I worked hard to "up" my drawing and computer skills, improve upon my writing skills and come up with a concept so amazing that even Hollywood would scream in utter fangasm "THIS IS AMAZING!!". But alas, here I sit, with nothing to do but look for work and wish.

I have been to temps services, state labor departments and the many major job searching engines all to be turned down for one reason or another.

I'm single, no kids with the capacity for higher learning...what's the big deal?

It's gotta be my nose or my overwhelming "I'm going to kick your butt" aura. So sorry, will soon be corrected once I get a job and start going back to school...you know...IF I can find a job.
