Stupid ideas and other silly things

At this particular moment all ideas I seem to spout for the looming final project feel a little like I would rather go get a tooth pulled out than take these ideas from script to screen. Yes. It's really that bad. I'm currently on my lunch break - I knew learning to eat quickly, but not too quickly would pay off one day - and I am struggling to get my head together long enough to have a proper idea. I have loads of ideas, really. But none of them are 15 pages long! And none of them will be able to make on no money and a crap camera! I'm a full time student with a full time internship and I will be getting zero capital for this adventure that my school insists I do. How not-awesome is that?

Okay, so it's not all bad! Promise.

I really want to do this movie. I want to prove to myself that I can do the photo, the editing, the sound as well as the script. Only thing I can't do is be in front of the camera at the same time. Which, to be honest, at this point in my life I just don't feel one bit like doing anyway. If you'd asked me three years ago, I'd have jumped on the chance. Today, well, not so much.

Anyway, back to where I was at. The final project.

I've been listening to music all day (Joseph Vincent, JDC, Sam Tsui, Kurt Schneider, Maddi Jane, Alex Goot) on youtube (thank you for existing!) while working, hoping that inspiration would strike. And it has. It's just the wrong kind!**

So here I am, forcing myself to write down my problems since we don't do the 'Penny for your thoughts' at work. Anyway. Maybe. Music. More music. That's usually the answer. Okay. Going to get some tea, then have a meeting and we'll see what the rest of the day brings.

I'll probably be back in a couple of hours to bitch about how I still don't have squat. Ain't life grand? :D In the meanwhile;

Stay sane,

**There no such thing as the wrong kind of inspiration, but I knew what it is I need and this isn't it. I'll have to finish my book when I'm done with school, now is so not the time to waste time.
