BSA303, Auckland Day 6, 29 June, 2017

I'm going to visit Jeremy Dillon at The Moe Show studios today!  I got an email from him yesterday inviting me over for a visit at one today.  Hooray!  More on that later.

I've been working on my application materials for the Christchurch Hagley Park College animation tutor job.  That will go in today.

My mate Nikola has been working her contacts.  Somebody from someplace has a contact of their own at Weta.  "Traci has a masters in costume design and that's her dream job!  That put some pressure on him."  Hahaahha!  I love Nikola.  She's got some other people she's networking with and will reach out to.99 today.  And it turns out that I also know someone at .99- in true Kiwi fashion, a friend of a friend's boyfriend who I met at a bbq is a graphic designer there.  Ha!

Jillian's contacts are all old crushes and now she's paranoid that they've blocked her which is why they're not responding to her networking attempts on my behalf.  HA!!!!  I'd be more concerned if they texted back "new phone, who dis?"  That's when you know they've cut you off.

Today I WILL call/email Darryl from Spoon and Jamie from Mediaworks/Jono and Ben.  No point being shy with people I already know.

I go the central library branch to do my internship stuff as it's only marginally less distracting than my mate's place.  Homeless men NEVER get into fistfights while I'm trying to eat sushi on a bench at her house but the library doesn't have episodes of make-up reality contest show Face Off to distract me.  It's a real 6 of one/half dozen of another situation in terms of concentration.
