February already?
Feb. 1st, 2008 02:27 amHad my first Abnormal Psych class today. It seems like it should be fine. The teacher is a kinda laid-back gothy looking chick.
Just...I know this is going to dreg up all sorts of emotional junk for me. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not. Does bringing stuff up and analyzing it make it easier to deal with?
I've noticed that in the past few weeks I've started to withdraw a lot from different areas of my ONLINE EXPERIENCE. I no longer post frequently at a message board I used to be a regular at, and a friend I IM with regularly has started to bug me enough to not really want to talk with them. Maybe it's because I've started the LJ, and I feel part of this different community, or I'm simply withdrawing more into myself and disregarding the outside world? It's an odd contrast that I've started school about the same time that this started...maybe it's just people overload.
In other, less emo news:
I've come up with a few ideas that I may try to do for my drama writing class. The first will be an experiment in the Waiting for Godot style with two writers as main characters. Set in a future where writers have been grouped and given jobs in offices...paid by amount of publishable material or something.
My next idea is story about a man that creates time travel to go back in time (I'm thinking Victorian England), but he splits time between a present day body and an in-the-past body. (and yes, Doctor Who people, that is kinda like that alien in City of Death. ...but different.) Much more complicated than that, but I want to see If I can write up some sort of outline before I try to summarize it here. I think it would make a good comic book, or maybe a movie script. Maybe I'll sketch up a few pages and post 'em...I need some guage on whether I can draw this thing or not.
