UCLA News

So as it turns out, UCLA wasn't in the cards for me. But I'm not too disappointed, an abundance of cons strike the pros from my brain at this very moment: $100,000 debt, 4 years of my life, living in Hollywood, 6 day a week schedules, not directing as much as I want, missing Cara, not being able to hold down a job to pay rent, $100,000 debt - oh, did I mention that already?

It frees a few options up, the direction my life is going is no longer a squiggly arrow but one that's actually starting to point somewhere. My friend Peter Lindsey has proposed something interesting to me: starting a non-profit Christian film organization that makes films with moral backbones and positive messages. It's pretty much right in line with what I want to do.

I have yet to hear from San Diego State. Peter has a year or so left at school so we might just take off from the Bay Area and get a masters there while he finishes. Who knows? I really felt the hand of God working in my life on Saturday. Thank you all for your prayers and phone calls.

Love,
Phil

PS They'll let me know by Wednesday- we'll see, it's in God's hands now.

Thanks, Phil and Cara.
