College Student

Despite what people tell you, being a college student is not as exciting as it sounds. Forget the movies, we aren't as cool and hip as they make us out to be. Instead we are quite ordinary and spend most of our time doing homework and my major guilty pleasure watching youtube videos. I swear youtube must have been invented for college students. When we don't want to do work and are looking for means of procrastinating we are either spending our time on facebook, catching up on tv shows through Hulu or finding bizarre/funny/talented viral videos on youtube.

The other day my roommate was showing me this really cool stop motion video. Stop motion is a video made out of photographs that are staggered perfectly so it appears that the person is moving, when really all that has been done is that someone has taken a photograph moved about an inch and then taken another one, so on and so forth. Pretty much your modern day flip book.



This is the video my roommate showed me, can you believe how much time and effort must have gone into making this video. It is pretty unreal and unbelievable. My roommate and her boyfriend actually want to make their own stop motion video and if they ever do, you will be the first to know about it. Who knows maybe I can actually convince them to let me help out, possibly pick out a kick ass background song.
