Hello, Austin


After 4 hours on a plane, we are finally here. Having never been to the city before, I had no idea what to expect from Austin. So far, the city has blown me away: it's beautiful, it's warm, it has a lake and parks, a cool music scene, young people, college campus, cool restaurants, bars and thrift stores. I'm just getting a really good vibe here. We went out to dinner at a Mexican restaurant with a couple members of the UT team and that was super fun. They gave us a mini tour of the city.


We've ended up staying at this uber cool co-op near the UT campus. Back in Ann Arbor, a lot of co-ops seem to be frat alternatives, but this place is so different. It's several stories high, painted a brilliant shade of lime green.


The central area on the first floor is a movie theater, dance floor, meeting place, and basket ball court.


I'm so excited for the next few days and the six weeks of post-production in Austin--it's going to be AMAZING!
