Sorry for the lack of updates. I've been busy with my other hobby writing, finishing high school, getting a part time job, so I just haven't had the time to post anything.

My videos though are now currently located on my Youtube account here: http://youtube.com/profile?user=cowtossing

Also my working on my writing has been taking up my time from making anymore videos recently. To conclude I probably won't be updating this lj for long while now. Sorry :(

I have a Study Hall last period so I get to leave school early! I am so pumped up and deliriously happy :D

Anyway I am currently working on another fan trailer but this one is a littler more challenging. I'm mixing Star Wars (both Prequels and Trilogy), King Arthur (with Keira Knightley), and Leon: The Professional (Natalie Portman's first movie) all into one story. However the dilemma is I don't own King Arthur, Leon, or Return of The Jedi. I scrounged up some clips from sites but I don't think they'll suffice.

So it would be greatly appreciate if anyone could help me out :)

...Well not really but I'm alive anyway ;)

Um sorry I haven't been on in so long. I had immense schedule mishaps for my senior year, school obviously started for me, and I started an account on YouTube. I've been all over the place really so that's why I haven't been posting. Not much to say at the moment so I'll just sign off. Cyas :)

I came back safe and sound late in the night yesterday and was incredibly exhausted. I think I have jet lag or whatever it is you call it. Anyway I'm still working on my story and have gotten alot of great ideas from visiting Salem!

Oh and I just wanted to point out two shows I accidentally discovered when I was given time to watch them in Salem in my hotel room:
-Kyle XY: an unusual but entertaining show with a very yummy Matt Dallas in the lead as a teen boy (in real life he's 24) who has amnesia and no belly button!
-Eureka: a quirky and funny show about a hot new Sheriff who must protect a town full of extremely strange happenings (that's apparently normal for the citizens in the town)
So look them up and watch them!

I didn't post a journal entry Tuesday because I was so tired from my trip to my Grandma's and then Wednesday my father wanted to have some "quality time" with my siblings and me. We went to see the POTC sequel which I will say is friggin' awesome on sequel standards, but sometimes had unnecessary scenes like Elizabeth's infamous "Kiss of Death" (you have to see the movie to get what I mean). The special effects and fight scenes were spectacular but the humor wasn't as good as the first movie's. Not that this movie wasn't funny it just sometimes seemed forced or they were just re-using acts from the first movie. But my siblings and I have come up with the top five funny quotes:
Not in any particular order:
1) "Hide the rum." - Jack Sparrow
2) [fires gun] "An undead monkey. Top that." - Jack Sparrow
3) "There will be no knowing here...I thought I knew you?" - Jack Sparrow (it's a sexual joke if you didn't realize)
4) [everyone's asleep while Jack tries to tip-toe by] "As you were gents." - Jack Sparrow
5) "I got a jar of dirt! I got a jar of dirt!" [falls down some stairs. a pause. you only see his hands raise with the jar still intact.] "I still got it!" - Jack Sparrow (I think the last line's correct I can't remember)
(I know they're all Jack Sparrow quotes but he's the one who says the funniest things!)

What really pissed me off about the movie, the rest I found entertaining, was this love triangle, surrounding Elizabeth, Jack, and Will, the writers are trying to confuse the audience with. It was stupid and not needed. But the ending (not the special ending after the credits, that one wasn't as entertaining as the first one's) probably has two of the most shocking scenes I've seen since "Luke I am your father" from SW! It makes you want to see the third sequel even more than before! And I hear Yun-Fat Chow (formerly known as Chow Yun-Fat)is gonna be a pirate in the third installement so now I am tons more excited!!!

Well anyway enough of my rambling, I'm gonna go continue writing my story. Cyas!!

I've been feeling off lately when it comes to creativity. I don't feel depressed but I don't feel happy about my work. It's weird. Hopefully I'll get out of it soon because I was in the middle of typing my story. Anyway since I'm so obsessed with Queer as Folk I made a vid. I think it starts to suck near the end which is where I started to lose my inspiration for it, however, I am gonna post it regardless of my feeling for the end of the vid:

Title: A Distant Memory
Music: "I Give, You Take" by Maria
Footage used: Queer As Folk Seasons 1-4 (thanks to the following site: http://queerasfolk.wired-hub.net/home.html)
Summary: Justin knows his rocky relationship with Brian keeps falling apart but he can't seem to stop loving him....

Well here you go; hope you enjoy. Feedback would be lovely :)

I just entered my entry vid for the second Annual Contest at the Star Wars Fan Vid Site. I'm not expecting to win but I'm just worried I won't get picked at all. I've got so many butterflies in my stomach I think they're about to burst out!

I just wanted to let you know I didn't die and I am now working on a vid; a Star Wars Ani-centric vid to be exact. Let's start at the beginning of how I disappeared:

I had gotten bored and decided to go to rent a movie with my mother and guess what I rented...Queer as Folk!!!! I always had wanted to see the televison show but I don't have the Showtime channel; plus when it was on TV I think I was too young to watch it because of the harsh language and explicit sex scenes ;)

Anyways I want to tell you that I fell in love with it, and have rented the third season (I watched the other two seasons non-stop; I'm so addicted, LOL!). However don't worry about the vid, I haven't stopped working on it and it will probably be done late today or early tomorrow :)

Cyas!!!!!


P.S. I love Brian Kinney (Gale Harold too, lol)!!!!

It's raining and I've got nothing to do...I wonder if anyone remembers that little trailer/vid thingy I did with Star Wars Episode III using a Fat Boy Slim song. Well I made another trailer/vid thingy, out of complete boredom, only this time I based it mostly around all the footage of Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley) in POTC: Dead Man's Chest I could find. I'm not gonna even post it on my comm. site and it's probably not my best work but I'm gonna share with you all anyway...

Title: Swann Song
Music: "Plague Burial" by Teargas & Plateglass
Footage used: Both POTC's (thanks to these sites: http://keira.fan-sites.org/, http://www.knightley-infos.com/, and http://keira.fanfilled.com/english.html)
Summary: There's so much Jack Sparrow publicity, what about Elizabeth Swann?

I didn't realize I had gotten tagged but I did and by [info]lita64

Here's the instructions:
1) Explain the name you've chosen for your LJ. When finished, tag the same number of people as there are letters in your name, so that they will have to explain themselves as well.

Here's my answer:
Okay so cowtossing is an inside joke I at first used for an email address when I need something for school and stuff; so basically I rarely used it. However when I found the Star Wars Fan Vid Site I wanted to comment on the wonderful vids these people were making so I decided to use it as my LJ name.
What's the inside joke you ask? Well my friends and I love the movie Monty Python and The Holy Grail and we love the part when Arthur and his Knights come across the snooty French Knights. Remember when they start catapulting animals at Arthur and his gang? Well the first animal was a big cow and we joked about instead of cowtipping they were cowtossing! Get it? I know it's stupid but it became the unique lj name I have today :)

And now I gonna tag: [info]wordplay__, [info]nicole9514, [info]marilla_pm67, [info]azonia, [info]rayburn1301, [info]used2bvader, [info]lancelotslove, [info]darth_vidder, [info]enchantedhayden, [info]__sithgoddess

Hey dudes and dudettes! I got extremely bored and went on this SW site I haven't been on in eons. Well I met up with an old aquaintance of mine and she was telling me all about how she wants to write this fanfic about what if Padme never died and became a rebel spy. So I made a fan trailer basing around that!

Hey everyone! Sorry for not posting in such a long, long time :)

First off I wanna just put up a link for my new vid posted on my comm. site: http://community.livejournal.com/cinema_vids/6461.html (As usual I won't tell you the movie but the song I used is "The Feel Good Drag" by Anberlin)

God I have to say school has been very stressful these past two weeks. Let's just say that something really bad happened to the building and now two floors are closed down; of course if you have lockers then you are allowed to retrieve your books and what not. For all my friends it doesn't really affect their schedule. I, on the other hand, only have two classes that aren't in the closed off section of the building. So I have been having to have class in the caferteria, the computer room, and outside. I had to go outside twice in a row each day, which is not good considering I have severe allergies this spring (I have a two-week excused absence from gym). So yeah that has been kind of a bummer...

What's more of a bummer is that I have a found time to write my story but I keep procrastinating and decide to blow it off. It's a subconscious thing, I swear! I have some many different ideas but I can't seem to stick to one...Hopefully my writer's block will clear up along with my allergies... So that's where I've been; nowhere special. However it's not like I have been having a series of bad days or anything; the bad days only happened when the school closed down the section of the building I have my classes in.

Well, I'm really sleepy right now so I'm just gonna sign off and catch some z's. G'night!

Okay the scariest thing just happened!

I'm sitting at my computer but chatting with my sister who just came out of her room, when the doorbell rings. I go to answer but there was nothing there. My sister said she saw someone rush away through the window's view. I back away to where my sister is and wait to see if the mystery man would return.

Meanwhile my brother was in the kitchen getting a snack. He comes bounding in past the front door. As if triggering an alarm, the doorbell rings again creating goosebumps at the back of my neck. I gallop towards the door but the mystery man had already fled. I put the chain over my door and immediately called mother and she is on her way to the house. The mystery man is yet to return but I'm still paranoid.
