I'm moving tomorrow [again] back to the States. I'm awaiting a response from an animation studio. They'll probably say no, but who knows, because a good friend of mine put in a good word for me (but that's happened before and nothing came of it).

I've decided that if nothing comes of it, I'm gonna focus solely on animal/creature animation and bang away until I get into a viz effects studio. It took me this long to figure out that's the type of animation I really care about, instead of scattering my attention to a half dozen types of character animation, too. I think it is/was my cause of losing motivation so quickly. I cared the most and worked the fastest on creature/animal animation, whereas I dragged my feet on character animation stuff.

For now I'm living in a friends house and gonna go back to my paralegal job for now as I either wait for a decision from that studio or to just work on creature animation junk. The job at least pays well and apparently I'm good at it, because my boss likes me there and begged for me to come back, but it's just not my kinda work, though it feels nice to feel like I'm helping people. Dunno. So...we'll see what happens, but at least I have a roof over my head and food.
