April 10: I Know Hearing About My Play Is Boring, But..

...no one is holding a gun to your head telling you to click on this blog post.  Unless someone is.  In which case, do click!  It ups my views and also saves your life!  Win-win!

So I am literally sentences away from finishing my play.

CAN I GET A WHAT WHAT?!?!?!?!?!

(off in the distance) WHAT WHAT!

Thank you small, fictional person off in the distance.

I feel really awesome right now.

I've never finished anything before.  I always lose interest or flake out before I finish, and it makes me feel like a worthless loser, but now I can say that I've finished something, God Dammit, and it is a God Damn good something to boot!

Apparently my school is going to bring it to the Spring Drama Festival, which is like competitive theater.  My play!  My play!  Like, what is going on, you guys?!

I am so excited I could spew.  But I won't.

Well, off to do the homework that I've neglected.

Love and kisses,

Jen

April 5: Agh, Writer's Block Is Going To Kill Me

I have writer's block.  Again.  MY SCRIPT IS DUE IN ABOUT A WEEK'S TIME!!! I AM ROYALLY FUCKED!!!!

Seriously, I am begging everyone.  Shout random ideas at me.  Throw them at me, for God's sake!  We'll see if one sticks.

So yeah.  That is basically my life right now.  Please shoot me.

Love and kisses,

Jen

April 2: You Can Pick Your Nose...

*Here is a monologue that I wrote for Acting Class*

Every one's family is a little crazy.  That's the deal with families.  No matter what you do, they will always be there to drag you right back into their nut job world.

My family is your standard family.  Mum, dad, two brothers, me.  But then you add in the fact that my little brother spent a majority of his younger years pretending to be a cat, and now spends most of his time trying to create homemade rocket fuel.  He is going to blow up my house one day.  And throw in the fact that my older brother rarely eats carbohydrates because he is afraid of his body fat rising over a certain point, and how he tries to get rid of chocolate in my house because he wants to eat it but won't.

Or how my father decides that yanking me out from underneath my nice, warm covers by my ankles whilst singing the Hebrew alphabet at the top of his lungs is an acceptable way to wake up his teenage daughter on a Saturday.

The heart attack I suffered following that awakening topped all of the heart attack I suffer from living in my house.  Honestly, it was like that movie, Taken.  I thought that I was being abducted, and that I was going to die at the hands of some psychopathic Jewish school teacher. (I can say that, I'm Jewish.  Besides this is my crazy brain we're talking about here.)

But alas, no.  Just my dad being absolutely barking mad, as usual.  Then Joshua came in and jumped on my bed, and joined in the singing.  He sat on my stomach.  It hurt.  My mum and Jake were laughing their heads off.  At my pain.  What gives?

That's family for you.  You can pick your friends, and you can pick your nose, but you can' t pick your family.

Even if I could, I'd pick them.

Yeah Yeah Yeah, I'm Here, Quit Your Whining.

Okay, so there is a legitimate reason why I haven't been writing.

...

IT'S CALLED WRITER'S BLOCK AND EVERYONE GETS IT ONCE IN A WHILE GOD!

It's writer's block, and I have to write a script for a contest.  Due the sixteenth of April.  Which means that I have about three weeks to write an awesome-tastic script and I'M ALL OUT OF IDEAS!!!

THIS NEVER HAPPENS TO - Well, it happens quite a lot, which is why I never finish anything, BUT I NEED TO FINISH THIS!!!

1. Because if I win, I could win a grand in cash and go to a convention in Washington, D.C. and have my script acted out by professional actors.

And 2. I need to prove to myself that I can finish stuff, god dammit!  I'm not useless and I don't flake out of things!  I can finish this thing and have a real chance of winning!

It's only a one act play.  Which I've never written one before.  What could possibly go wrong?

Oh, and if any of you want to read some of the finished product, I'll be sure to give you all a tidbit.

Yours most affectionately and most tiredly,

Jen
