The release today went fairly smoothly, and now there are groups and events on Jumpcut. Sweet!!
As a random note, I love the people I work with; they are all so easy going and fun. With the movie-centric theme of Jumpcut, many of the people have artsy backgrounds. It is such a creative environment and there is always something going on. It also helps that I think the product is pretty freaking slick.
Today was probably the last day I’ll ever see Patrick. Patrick has been a large motivation for me to attend my CS182 lectures. He sat in the 2nd row, and he always seem engaged in the lectures. With his cute messy hair and I-don’t-care-what-I-look-like attitude, I couldn’t help but fall for him. He also had an oral fixation (bits of paper). As weird as this is, I really liked the sweatshirt he wore with the permanent car grease stains on it. I felt like he was someone I could have fun with–take walks, go biking, lie in the sun, etc. I think the big draw, though, was that he was interested in the material. He asked intelligent questions and wasn’t rude or egocentric. Though, the deep, soft voice also helped. Anyway, near the end of class I finally had the courage to say hi. We’ve had a few brief conversations here and there. Unfortunately, he left the final 5 minutes before it was over; 5 minutes before we could have walked out together; 5 minutes before I could have asked him out; 5 minutes too early, and now too late. Oh well. It was meant to be. I wanted to take a photo of him and start a ‘crushes’ set on flickr, but I would have looked really strange taking a picture of him. I love having crushes and being consumed by the novelty of it all. It’s so much fun and rarely disappointing.
