<p>**Letters of Recommendation:<a href="completed%20already.%20my%20school%20is%20anal%20about%20recs">/b</a>: Really great. I have a glowing one from my film teacher. He's worked in the business, and he said I was the first one in his teaching career to present a perfect first project in a film class! :D</p>
