I’ve officially been at the lab for a year. Doesn’t seem like it…then on the other hand it feels like forever. Good things have come out of it…I’ll have my name on two papers, at least…of course, it’s stressful, sometimes, but what job isn’t? At least I have my own room, mostly, and I get to do whatever I want when I’m done with my work. Of course I have to report and I feel bad when I’m using company time to do fun stuff, but I just can’t see myself working in an office where I have to wear a suit and look professional all day.
Troy is going to be so cool. I got the soundtrack last night…it’s long. I love soundtracks that actually approach the movie running time…even though Troy is supposed to be pretty long. But 75 minute long cds are good things. I have to say it’s not James Horner’s best work and it sounds an awful lot like The Mask of Zorro and Legends of the Fall, but that’s ok. James Horner is composer god. And Josh Groban rules. I think the soundtrack will be better when I hear it in context of the movie.
boo to having to download stuff to my iBook so I can make a cd that plays on both Macs and pcs. Silly pcs. They say that they can make cds that play on macs as well but I don’t believe it.
Two days to Troy!
