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

My favorite spot to go catch a movie, they have retrospectives of the best directors and have an overall wonderfully curated selection of films. It’s run as a film archive as a non-profit, and consists of one very minimal screening room and a small cafe adjacent to it. Just hearing the way my shoes click on the white marble floor will already make me giddy — I’m so glad it reopened. Just before the pandemic caught one of my all time favorite movies, Fellini’s Juliet of the Spirits there, on original restored film.

Grab a couple friends, watch (once per week, together or separately) classics/canonicals you otherwise would never have gotten around to, discuss irl or on Zoom. Feel free to hate, but also feel free to love
There is literally no other way to get yourself to watch Jeanne Dielman, but boy-oh-boy you’ll be happy you did

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
