Right now, I just got out of the shower. I was really tired and didn’t want to get up this morning… and when I did I checked email and all that, so I knew I wouldn’t have time to shower before my thesis meeting.
The meeting went ok… I only emailed my professor about 6 pages (the first week was 13, last week was 14) thanks to writer’s block/getting tired of it. He actually sort of threatened to bust my kneecaps with a baseball bat (he even brought out the bat, lol). He told me that one time, a grad student said he wouldn’t turn anything in for his thesis that week because of writer’s block, and my professor threatened to bust his kneecaps… the next day, the grad student turned in a LOT of pages, and they were really good pages too! He’s such a funny guy… but I’m definitely making sure I turn in more pages next week!
But other than this week, it’s fine. I’ve got a total of 32 pages, not including some scenes I wrote last semester that have yet to be put in my screenplay. That’s like a third of the entire thing, because generally feature-length screenplays are 90-120 pages (one page equals a minute in the movie, generally).
Anywho… I think I’ll just chill out here for a little while, then I have to go to work at 3:30. I sort of want to go, and I sort of don’t. I just hope the kids are good today…
