In my head, theres two stages to a project — the creative bit and the labor bit. I try to get all of the creative/planning part done (ie sketching outlines for a painting or creating melodies/drum patterns for songs.) Then at a later date when I feel ready I can just paint by the numbers and grind it out without thinking.
Trying to be creative the entire time is just stressful for me

The best $25 I spend every month. Literally pays for itself if you see one movie
plus if I see a bad movie I don’t feel like I wasted money

I recently watched The Monkey for free at Chicago's Music Box Theatre — and even stuck around for Perkin's Q&A session. I have to say, it was the best movie-going experience I've ever had. An organist played the score with diabolical cymbals in the background — come on! And the movie was hilarious and equal parts gory!

Going to the movies rocks. this was honestly such a hard question. This isn’t exactly the ~best~ movie but it is a great movie to see in a theater
From like 19-20 going to the Landmark in Westwood to see the Room with my friends rocked. The Room is such a funny bad movie and it’s even better at this theater because of all the canned responses the audience has to the shit happening on screen. its similar to how campy people get with Rocky Horror Picture Show. People throw plastic spoons and loudly jeer at the movie. occasionally Tommy Wiseau and maybe Greg Sestero will show up and you can take a pic. Highly recommend pregaming and then going with your friends at least once
sometimes a specific audience for it will suck but overall it was always pretty fun.

I have 2 big ones that make it easier
1. The more thoughtful questions you ask the less you have to talk! Write down like 5 tonight
2. At the end of the interview ask “hey thank you for your time today; is there anything top of mind that we didn’t get to touch on that you’d like me to go over?” Something like that. Shows you are serious about the job and whatever they do ask is an opportunity for last min brownie points
