EYHO is going through rewrites everyday. Just received notes from my friend Arvin Chen, which I must take into serious consideration, especially since I just saw pictures of the DVD box set that's being released of Au Revoir Taipei, his first feature he made overseas. Basically, he knows what he's talking about. I've never dissected and revised something I've written to this extent. I hope it's for the good, and that I'm not intellectualizing my storytelling instincts that created the initial story. Casting again this weekend. Still need revisions for the audition sides. Katie going in for her interview today. Just a lot of things and things...

∆ ∞ ∆
So tired of walking from Union Station to 7th and Grand. It's only about four miles round trip but I don't think I've ever followed an exercise routine for this long. It's not so much a physical thing as much an exhaustion of my senses. There are no more routes left to explore; no more interesting smells from the Grand Central Market. I'm sick of walking through the film crews on Spring, rationalizing my uneasiness and trying to forget that I feel more comfortable walking down Broadway with all the trash poverty destitute crazies than I do walking by a Panavision camera nowadays. I can't help but get annoyed and be intimidated because I can't believe they're shooting yet another piece of shit for TV and I'm still working on my script on the train as I go into work everyday. But that's not the mentality, right? Soon enough, I'll get mine. I just have to earn it, and that's what this process is.
