Today was the last day of class. Technically, I still have Leonard Maltin's class tonight, but we're watching King Kong so that'll just be fun. I still have my graduate cinema application to finish, I have to shoot and edit my final directing scene, and I have two finals, but that'll be cake after this past week. Which means...

Making presents! That's right, some of y'all can expect Present Actually Made By Shannon this year for the holiday season. Instead of presents bought by Shannon that are more than likely something that is a novelty, like Monkeys of the World, because I suck at buying presents. I go out, and all I can see are things I personally want. Which makes me feel like a horrible friend, because other people manage to get me presents that are exactly the kind of thing I wanted, and I feel I should know those people that well. Which is why I'm making presents. Because if you don't like it, you can't say anything about it, because I toiled and stuff. Yeah.
