For the past two years, I have been desperately trying to get to this film festival and every year I either forget it's going on, I can't get in or I don't have time to go. This past weekend my schedule was pretty full. I worked at my job the majority of the weekend plus I had to shoot or my photography class and I was working a few spreads. I had homework in just about every class and lately pulling it over has been difficult. I just keep trying to keep in mind that spring break is almost here.
Well on Saturday night, I tried to buy tickets in advance to a few shows but I wasn't able to. So I tried to get to make it to the last movie at the Tiger Columns that night. I believe it was An Alternative To Slitting Your Wrist. I arrived an hour early because that's what the lady on the phone had told me, a ticket person had also told me to do so earlier that day and the website suggested that I arrive an hour early. Yet once a friend and I got there, we found out that there was only 15 queue tickets left. Shortly after, we found out that we had been misinformed and there weren't any. I don't think that I really became excited until I got there. But once I found out that I couldn't get in, I was very disappointed. I asked the ticket girl if I would able to get into the early show or if I could purchase tickets in advance. Apparently once the festival started, they weren't selling tickets in advance anymore. One of the ushers suggested that I should come in early the next morning. But they felt like it might be unlikely that I would get tickets. So as it goes this was another year where I wasn't able to attend the festival. *tear* Maybe one day I will be able attend the SXSW festival in Austin.
