Little Boodt's Companies
Kalamazoo College Media Center Kalamazoo, Michigan US Media Assistant

About me: If you read what I used to have up here, you'll know that sometimes I'm a little cynical and even a little existential (even though I basically slept through that class... and still got an A, ponder that one). Ummmm... I suppose I could just ramble on for a sec (really? Because a second is a unit of time and rambling is experienced as an auditory phenomenon by the listener whereas typing takes up space and is read by the eyes of the viewer?) about things I enjoy.
If you (mysterious reader) have not noticed (as you probably haven't, considering I changed my layout from Padme Amidala to a Twilight theme), I'm a bit of a Star Wars fan (the good, the bad and the ugly -Ani/Vader, I swear that wasn't directed at you). And Nickelodeon's Avatar the Last Airbender consistantly rocks my television and computer screen.
I wouldn't say I'm some kind of fantasy/sci-fi nerd because I'm really picky about what I like and there are many books/movies/shows that are my favorite that don't fit into those categories and even though a fair shake of my writing has been somewhat fantasy based, quite a few of the better ones have been plain old short stories.
I suppose really, you could say I'm a generalist. I'm definitely into studying and partaking in visual media (film, television) but I also like writing, reading, drawing, music, history, psychology, the paranormal and all those other things I can't think of right now.
Maybe I am a bit of a nerd, of a recluse, an oddball... but being me has got me where I am and will hopefully take me to many other places in the future, and for all the bad, good has consistently been worth it.
Who I'd like to meet: George Lucas...kidding (kinda). The head of Summit Entertainment so I can kick his ass... kidding (no, not really). Really though, anyone interesting in any way. People who have gone to one of the Celebrations, Star Wars fans are the bestest (most of the time, we all get a little carried away when it comes time to buy action figures, vicious). Or anyone who has no idea what they're going to be when they grow up and are entertaining the prospect of living in a cardboard box b/c we all know that's how it is to be an English/INSERT-YOUR CREATIVE/LIFE-OF-POVERTY-MAJOR-HERE major.
P.S. I just found a great box in the student ghettos, anyone wanna room with me? No water, heat, electricity, internet or any other requirements, but it's at the low, low price of your Creative Major college tuition!
Hey Cuz...hows it going...I was just letting u know that because I have all next week off for thanksgiving I will probably be coming down there to visit everyone so let me know what u r up to so then maybe we can hang out or go see a movie or something... :)

Yeah, it was sweet while it lasted. We just moved to my house. So now Nessa and I are living with my parents right now. And we are trying to figure everything out right now. If you want to know why we moved message me and I'll tell you the story. I'm just gonna get more hours at Save-A-Lot. Sounds like your summer has been a blast.
Hey long time no talk. So ya Larsgo prodution is on hold untill I hit KVCC this winter. So far I only made a few stop motion shorts. My outrageously pro-empire pic was taken at Disney MGM couple years back. So how is everything?
Yo Yo Yiggity Yo! Not much. I pretty much moved to South Haven. I'm living with my Girlfriend at her parents house. I work at Save-A-Lot and Subway, but I can't stand Subway so I'm gonna quit. I don't spend much time online anymore. What have you been up to?
ok so it has been forever since I have talked to you...how have you been...I hope all is well...I am going to try and get down there as fast as I can cause I really want to see all of you...but yeah talk to you later...love ya lots
as luck would have it I go back to work this week. Somewhere either wed. or thurs though, so I still have half of the week to hang out if you're bored come on by. Give me a call or just drop in, i'm usually around.
Hey, I didnt know about a birthday dinner. I'm probably going to have to plow fri night/sat morn so I wont be able to make it cause I'll probably be sleeping or at least going to bed early. Drop by the house one of these days though, because Im still not back to work and the weather is starting to get progressively nicer that I fear I might be going back to work before too long.
