#nowplaying: Brand New Day - Josh Radin

AHHHHH so much going through my brain. I'm so stressed man. Like in the best possible way one can be stressed. I'm just anxious, and clearly incredibly motivated.

The tech world and Hollywood are two very different places ... we operate at like a gajillion miles per hour, and when we see something we want, we create it - instantly. Hollywood is a slower beast - I can respect that ... like dude, so through and through ... our producers on this are just off the wall bananas.

No literally - they throw bananas ... a lot of them. I'm not even sure where they all come from, but if I can dodge a ball, I can dodge a banana.

I'm actually going to be looking at a sublet today - whoop whoop!!!! I need to get off the couch, DESPERATELY. Don't get me wrong, urban camping for the last year has been literally the gnarliest ride of my life - but this stuff with the pilot is emotionally tolling ... very very very much so. I'm an extroverted introvert. When I get in situations like this, I need a lot of space; I don't have that right now.

Again, best worst problem ever - last year at this time I was googling public showers, so a couch was considered a blessing. I just can't keep stressing myself out with this sheer excitement and unbelievable rush from stuff with the pilot and not have a place to decompress. I need an off button.

It's funny too, this clothing company that I was introduced to last month totally just contacted me yesterday and want to help out. Dude, their stuff totally doesn't suck! Like literally, I even said to my friend when I first saw the logo, I was like fuck, that's brilliant. They're not marketers nor do they know anything about social media - so I said I'd love to exchange social media 101 for a place to stay. Dude! I can break this stuff down for anyone, it just takes time out of my day. If you're willing to give me a place to call my own where I can decompress .... I will GLADDDLLLYYYYY teach you social media, and help spread the good word of the nerd.

HAHA! You guys are going to freak when you see their shit, it's good stuff man. Definitely good quality. I'm pretty stoked - should find out more today, but at least doing my end of the bargain by looking at a place. 

BAHHH!! This is just all so batshit. Best worst problem in the world to have - they're turning your life and website into a TV show, but I can't keep spinning and spinning, and running this site, doing all the SEO, and not have a place to just be. It's going to make me stop loving life ... and dude, that can't happen - EVER.

I honestly am so ready for a challenge ... what I did with this site, as humbly as possible, wasn't even challenging for me. This was all just so matter of fact, that now I'm very ready for a challenge ... however, understand said challenge cannot take place without a solid foundation aka my own home page.

Oh and PS. when I was sleeping in a bed last week in Vegas for the ENTIRE week ... I got to do some epic body contorting. Something that one cannot do while sleeping on a couch ... BAHHHHH!!!

This. Felt. AMAZING!

I'm hanging out at Cafe Solar in Hollywood to try and write out this story. I don't know what's going to come out of my mouth, but I find the people watching here to be very inspiring ... so I'm hopeful. If you're in the neck of the woods, and don't see me writing like a mad woman - totally come by and say hi. I only bite upon request. RAWRRR!!! Oh, but do me a small favor, please tweet me prior: @JenFriel. Not gonna lie I get a bit spooked when people just sit down at the table. hahaha love you all, but I don't immediately pull avatars up in my brain IRL. Gotta look at the handle. JIIIGGAAAAAAA!!!!

Oh and dude, there's totally a cute boy sitting over by the window. I'm making nerdy eyes. He has a mac, so I know his hard drive is compatible with my software. RAAWWRRRRR!!! Note to self, make a move before 1:37pm, and attempt to scour OKC to see if he is on there, and we are a match. He looks so super nerdy, he's gotta be on OKC. Ugh, he just looked over again ... avert the eyes Jen. Don't look directly at him!!!

love you all.

like for real.

like more than you'll ever know.

like so so long time it should be illegal.

wait, maybe this is illegal.

is one person really supposed to feel this way?

how can i bottle this and sell it?

hmm, what would my marketing strategy be?

whoops! something shiny ...

gotta go.

#nowplaying: What I got - Sublime

*waves* HELLOOOOOOO from Vegas!!! No like straight up, my life is being MADE this week thanks to Mike from @wantowle. Straight up, I have a bed ... to myself ... this ENTIRE week!! BAHHHHH!! LOOK!!! 

Happiest. Camper. EVERRRRRR!!!!

Ugh. Can't stand it. 

And oh yeah, during the day I get to do things I genuinely enjoy anyway?!?! Whatttt is going on!?!? HOOWWW is this my life right now!!!!!! Dude, grateful from the friggen depths of my SOUL!

So, I'm in Vegas for NAB (National Association of Broadcasters) and basically I am going to be using this new app that allows you to not only shoot from your iPhone but actually edit and upload as well. It's kind of amazing, I'm not going to lie; it's called Vericorder. I haven't tested it out yet, but in the training today my mind was pretty blown. Literally, like people around me had to grab like ponchos and shit because it splattered. It's cool though, I have special super powers that rejuvenate cell growth wicked fast ... so uh, it's covered. 

But look! 

That's an OWLE, which has the Vericorder app downloaded ... on a monopod with a mic set up. The quality is so legit, it's blowing my mind ... straight up. Look at the editing ... 

 

It's kinda hard to see - but its straight up like having Final Cut Pro on your iPhone. And the fact that it automatically uploads, tweets out - these guys have it all so on lock it's not even funny. I didn't get to play around with it today as much as I wanted because I was on this massive wifi hunt after I couldn't get the card working ... and yada yada yada - one of "those" ... but tomorrow its on like Donkey Kong!!!

Oh but PS. watch out for your stuff while you're at NAB (and I feel like in Vegas in general - but whatevs). A chick from my training session today totally had her purse stolen. And DUDE! My bag was right next to it!!! Albeit, mine is a big Swiss Army backpack sponsored by Samsung, it still spooked me. Bottom line, just watch your things man. 

SUPPERRR STOKED TO BE HERE!!! If anyone from the site wants to meet up or whatevs, hit me up on twitter: @JenFriel, and lemme know what you're up to. I think I'm going to a mixer tomorrow ... but other than that, I'm not planning meetings that far ahead - just wanna kick it. 

Thanks again so so much to Mike from @wantowle for the hotel and the experience. Seriously dude, you're making my life right now. This guy is such a hustler too - his stories are out of this wooorrlllllddddddd!!! HAHA! I'm learning so much .. BAHHH!!! Loves me some life. 

Oh, one last thing ... my last OKC date totally went to the pooper. We had an AWESOME date on Friday, then he sends me this text saying "dude, I totally made out with an internet celebrity." I was like um, seriously? I wasn't even mad at him - cause, I get it ... I was more curious about the fact that I profiled this dude - and very honestly didn't think he was like that. It means, I have a lot of work to do. Clearly. HAHAH!! ... and now I know ... and even in jest, but either way I'm over it. Onto the next! This experiment is getting more and more difficult, but I REFUSSEEE to give up! If I can literally manifest an entire new life for myself, and a series of the most INSANE experiences - I can attract the right person. Life is reflective, so maybe some more internal work ... I dunno. 

Either way, super grateful to be here, and super grateful to get to play with new toys and software all week!! WAHOOOO!!!!! But for reals, don't be shy - if you see me, or wanna hang it TOTALLY tweet me and let's get it done. If you read this site, I wanna thank you - and maybe hug it out. Dude, I give GREAT hugs. Am I still talking? Shut up, Jen.

#nowplaying: Akon- Beautiful

AHHHHH!!! I can't wait to stop being an urban camper. I want a home so, so, so bad I CAN TASTE IT!!!! I appreciate couch surfing for so long - incredibly beneficial to the hustler's state of mind ... but it literally starts to wear on your psyche not sleeping in a bed, and not having your own space. (OMG and hot water!!!! I take 2 cold showers a week. Fucking literally.)

I am very literally going through the most bat shit experience of my life right now - I'm going to be this character on a TV show based on my life and brand. Fucking nuts! I'm processing ... this is my therapy, and my outlet ... but its just different when you don't have your own space. Again though, incredibly. incredibly. incredibly appreciative of my surroundings. Like seriously? How am I not on a street corner somewhere? And dude, not even in the hot and hooking standpoint ... goodness gracious.

Everything is literally right here. Like any day, I can feel it. This crowd in NY hit me up for some stuff ... if that goes through I can get my own place somewhere. Obviously, I have to sublet. Until things pop with the pilot, we're kinda in a holding period. There's still a lot of work that has to get done since this project is 75% tech. Dude, totally get it. The agency suits could barely wrap their head around 5% of things that I was saying. It was weird.

Is it weird too that I very honestly feel like I've just begun? I did this shit in my sleep. Everything I did with this site came incredibly naturally to my personality, and just genuine shit I enjoyed talking about. I'm sincerely wondering what the next level of consciousness is. Ugh! I can't wait. This is the GREATEST TIME TO BE ALIIVVEEEEEE!! EVER. EVER. EVERRRRRRRR!!!

Oh and the emails I have been getting regarding the posts on the mentalist have been INSAANNNEEEEE!!!!! Newest post will be delivered in the morning. The next bit of it gets INCREDIBLY intense ... can't post that before bed, I'll be up til 7 am again.

Dude, read what one of the chickadees involved wrote me on Facebook today:

Yeah my b. I knew that wasn't going to sit pretty - but it was honest. Those girls have the BIGGEST hearts on this planet, but very literally when we first started talking and when I first met them - I heard no less than 10 times, I do not understand what you just said. It's just different when you grow up such a different part of the country. Dumb isn't the right word - that's a very rude thing to say ... I will say simpler, in the most genuine and honest manners possible. I know these girls can hustle, I've seen it first hand - but when it comes to a broader range of things, it just didn't occur to me that other people in the world weren't exposed to the education I received.

HALL HIGH IN THE HOUUSSSEE!!! WeHa! WHAD UP?!?! Yeah, no? Dude, a few peeps from my high school read this. Well, one - and I pay her in raisinettes. DUDEEE!! MMMMMMMMMMMMMM I need some raisinettes.

#drool

ps. epic evening. @CatieLaffoon might be one of my newest favorite people on the planet. This chick is fucking RADDDD!!! OH and I totally met one of the editor's tonight from Hot Tub Time Machine. He's totes besties with @meowmistidawn - they met on OKC back in the day. Fucking small ass world. He worked with Mary and Luke who are producers on our pilot. Bat shit!! BAT SHIT I TELL YOUUUUU!!! k ... bye.

#nowplaying: Memories - Kid Cudi, David Guetta

HAHA!!! Omg I am still trippin over the fact that I went to an orgy this weekend. The house of Dr. Suzy was absolutely bat shit. I'm such a voyeur. Experiences like that open my mind, but I forget sometimes that this isn't social media - I'm not sitting behind the computer people watching ... they can talk back to me!

My OKC profile switch up hasn't brought me much luck. Well, I take that back, you create luck - but I haven't been getting that many more emails. I very literally think OKC has placed me in the lesser attractive bin. That came out weird, but OKC actually has a process in filtering higher rated people among other higher rated people - dude, the peeps I have been getting as matches lately have not been higher rated. The dating gods do not like me, man!!! What's the dilly yo?! This duderino did email me on the site and say that maybe if I talked less about work, and I'm like ummmm this is my life! I can't stop talking about technology, social media, and how it's changing our social settings and standards. It's AH-MAZING! Plus, if I don't at least put a disclaimer up about what I do, people will get reaallllyyyyyyyy pissed. I have to mention what I do - I screen shot emails. It's the right thing to do IMHO.

AHHHH!!! Super excited for Wednesday! We have a really big meeting with the suits about the pilot. Basically it got passed around the agency that's going to represent it, and apparently it was incredibly well received. I dunno, I met with the agency actually on an unrelated app development thingie back in December, but the suits manage all of that on their end. This whole process has been so strange, and honestly very emotionally draining. I didn't anticipate that part - caught me off guard. I'm naturally a VERY excited to be alive human being, but to be honest - I'm pretty grounded. I just do what I want to do cause I want to do it; the rest disinterests me. If I sit there and start to process what all of this, and that means - and that could then be this ... I literally get dizzy. Too much for me. Too too much.

We shall see - I'll have more to report after Wednesday. Actually, I should be able to say who all of these people are on Wednesday too. That'll be cool! I'm totally going to try to keep my composure and be like ummmmmmm the movies you produced are fucking classics, like literally, now you're a part of this?!?!?!!?! So humbling ... and dude, how all of this happened is like THE BEST STORY EVERRRR!!!! It's social media, baby! Was about time I got social and did some networking. omg omg omg so grateful. BAHH!!

Have a date with a professional hockey player tomorrow night. He's taking me to a hockey game, naturally. That'll be fun. He seems like a bit of a whackadoodle noodle though - haha, we seem a lot a like. I don't know if that is a good thing. We shall see - no matter what, I think I'm gonna get a post out of it.

#WINNING

ps. I'm totally DMing on Twitter with one of the former Bachelors!!! HAHA! (Crazy since I JUST LAST WEEK posted about watching it for the first time. Literally, I've never seen a single episode of that show - like ever.) Totally not kidding, he was on it a few years back and I dunno, he just randomly pulled a "how you doin?" hahahaa!! But for reals, this guy is actually a very accomplished human being and a big humanitarian. What's that? Oh ... nothing ... just the sound of panties dropping. *sigh*

#Randombling: That Nerdy Chick

People think it is very weird to take pictures of yourself when you're just sitting in a coffee shop. It's cool - I'll own it.

#nowplaying: Runaway - Janet Jackson

Oh my oh my oh my. I am currently experiencing the worst mind fuck. Dude, trademarking something is like the most nauseating thing on the planet. I am not hardwired for filling out 16 pages of paperwork, my brain very literally cannot handle it. I'm so ADD its not even funny. What's that? Something shiny???

Goodness!

Dudes, I am so mother effin proud of the social media marketing bible for the pilot. I obviously can't share it with you all right now, but I have put my blood. sweat. and tears into the marketing for this show - like for reals, my last ounce of EVERYTHING has gone into this baby ... just a little bit longer! BAHHH!!! It's such an interesting time to be alive. You not only have to sit there and educate all of these suits on social media, but actually come up with creative forms of execution, and that just gets me off. Literally. (oh baby!) I'm learning so much right now, this space is so ALLIIIVVEEEEEEEEEE!!! It's incredible. Greatest time to be alive. HANDS DOWN!!! Anyone can do anything. Social media is a platform; go say something. As a caveat though, you have to be honest, transparent (the honesty helps that bit), and genuinely passionate. BAM! Fucking trips me out, man. We're entering in a great space of collective niche experiences. And dude, the boutique target marketing that we can do on Facebook. Who saw that one coming? It's not the dot com boom! We're ALREADY making money off of it by reaching these people in such a direct way. UGH! Amazing! Don't even get me started on Twitter by adding the in real time component. Fucking trip man. Social media is the greatest thing evvveerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

My brain hurts. Can you tell? I'm not really sure why I'm still talking, er typing. Epic people watching btw at the Starbucks Santa Monica and La Brea. These people are making my life, I've been so thoroughly amused all day - you have no idea. 

In my next life I want to come back as a may fly. They live for 24 hours, which is pretty much the most epic thing on the planet. For reals, get in - take a look around - get on with it.

Big stuff this week. We sit down now with all the suits - kinda rad. Still hasn't clicked in at all that this is happening, for that I am thankful. Life with no expectations jiiiiigggaaaaaaaaa!!

Super grateful for you all btw. For reals, your emails make my life. You guys have no idea, I appreciate it.

Went to bed at 7am - slept for 4 hours. Four Loko man ... cheapest buzz and the energy ZOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!! Okeyyyyy back I go. Fucking paperwork.
