My Interests

i'm currently directing a movie and gearing up for my first game in a soccer league on july 1. making movies and playing soccer are the two things i thought i loved most in the world and the only things i ever want to be doing, but without tara everhart around it's just not enough. all of my interest is in her and finding a way to get back together.
Currently Netflixing

I'd like to meet:

"Because we're used to making films and observing films with a sort of shorthand. You see the car going down the road. Okay, got it. Then it's the next shot. Usually what happens then is people start talking about something that will relate to the story instead of something random and more lifelike, like dental work. We learn in English class not to have it be about dental work. But maybe watching the car going down the road is important. To really watch it - as if you were in the car." - Gus Van Sant
