I start my new job today so most of my goals this week are around learning all the things I'll need to learn to get myself up and running in my new role. Meeting my team, getting to know the systems and all that kind of thing. It's going to be a pretty steep learning curve, I think.
I didn't;t manage to finish my book over the weekend. I've written a lot, but I don't think it's the right stuff. I know where I need to end up, but I can't seem to get there and I've written a lot of probably really boring bits to try and move on to where I need to be. I think I should have trusted my instincts when I changed POV at a certain point, but I doubted myself and went back to the main one.
So I'll have to re-look at it all later, probably over the weekend when I have some time. See if I can figure it all out and how to get to the actual ending.
The film festival finished and my last film was a goodie! It was called Urchin and was about a young guy living on the streets (guess why I wanted to see this one?) and all the different ways he fucked things up for himself. He was a delightful, charismatic guy and watching him screw everything up over and over again was kind of tragic. It was a beautiful performance in a story that was more a character study than a narrative. Very enjoyable.
I have one more to see int he encore series, a film about Jeff Buckley that I'm very much looking forward to.
What are your goals this week?
