So it goes

trevorgasm:

i’m obsessed with this movie

sometimes it hurts a lot and sometimes I just want it to go away so I don’t have to think about it at all 

I tried to fight it. I don’t like this feeling. The feelings are ugly. I want them out.

it can tell a story, but can it story-tell? 

Stressed at the thought of writing a 10 page film paper. I am not really concerned with the length, but I am in a scurry to develop a well thought out thesis. It’s more of a burden to write on a really great film, because you almost cannot find an excuse to write poorly given the opportunity to discuss Kubrick’s work. I would not be complaining as much if I narrowed a topic of interest. I hope I finish the paper with some integrity, because the heat is weighing on me. 

It is disappointing to review my previous essays, because they do not reflect my current writing abilities. Therefore, I want to improve my writing in order to convey clarity and to build a level of confidence. Sometimes, a lot of my writing result in choppy or abrupt sentences that would disrupt the flow of my writing, and this is particularly evident when I read my papers out loud. I took my boss’s advice into consideration, and I have incorporated appropriate conjunctions throughout  my sentences to prevent this habit. I think once I resolve this habit, my writing will read clear and connected. I will admit writing is still frustrating for me at times, and I believe the writing process should never end on the final draft. 

I really should write more often since my future profession depends on my writing, and seeing summer is approaching, I have decided to write once a week! I tend to procrastinate on writing even when it is leisure writing, but the Internet makes writing a lot more fun especially when it is this spacious to organize your rants. To direct my writing, I will attempt to make this exciting since I wouldn’t want to write if I am not having fun. 

Recently, I haven’t followed any mainstream news. I follow podcasts, namely ones that discuss a lot of buddha and krishna talk. I am not kidding. All of which talk about the use of psychoactive drugs, so much that it saturates the content of each episode. In curiosity, I looked up Vice to read some interesting tidbits. I read less of their articles, because I gravitate towards more of visual media especially when they are travel news! I glanced through the pharmacology section, and I thought it was fun. This was an Amsterdam episode so there were a lot of shops specializing in psychedelic goodies including truffles. This was because I did go two summers ago but ran through the red light district like it was some sort of museum for tourists… I did not bother to look since naked women paroling the streets are not my interest. The guy who ate a lot of the truffles walked about without a care at the end of the episode. I emphasized that he consumed the truffles, because they react a lot faster when you eat them. I could not tell if he had a bad trip, but it seemed okay to be carrying a balloon smiling aimlessly in the midst of Amsterdam festivities. 

I have a lot more to write, but I should be coming up with a topic and thesis for my paper.
