Day 13

Instead of working on my script, today I enjoyed myself. I got home, relaxed, and then went to my odyssey of the minds meeting and pretty much joked around and goofed off the entire time. I felt much better, and I couldn't breath I was laughing so hard. Laughing and joking are key parts to being a better person, and being a better person will make you happier. If this hadn't have happend, I probably would've had a boring weekend, and just sat around and did nothing. I am reconeting with old friends even more, which was one of my earlier goals, because I am with them for 3 hours one night a week. I also see them in school more often, and I am laughing and joking more.

Day 12

Today, I got to work on finishing up my script. I finished the story completly now, and I am going back and making changes on it. This is a good thing, because I started the script in mid summer. I always liked to make movies, but most of them were short and made up on the spot. I wanted to create a script for a movie, and then get it made. I feel better mentally, because I have accomplished something today. I even got an approval from some of my friends, they read it, and said they thought that it was good. It was tough to come up with the idea for it, and even writing it out. Once school started, it got even harder, because I just couldn't find the will to write it.

Days 11, 12, and 13

Ok, my goal for the last 5 days is to get to work on my movie script. It is my first one, and I am self taught (more of just write down stuff not in detail). I have a few videos up on youtube, but they are not scripted and they are just bad. I had trouble on pretty much all of them with sounds. The script I'm working on, I hope, that I can get some people to help, and maybe burn it onto a dvd so I don't have to watch it on a little computer screen. Basic storyline is that, Obama really screws up the economy, so he does not get re-elected. However, guerilla groups of democrates, think that is wrong, and begin to rebel against the Republicans, who now pretty much run the government. They dominate the playing field and keep the republicans guessing. The main charecters are: General Shepard, Captain Mcullister, and Seargent Johns. The rough draft is already finished, I'm just trying to go through, make minor changes, then get if typed up to hopefully start making it.

Day 10

Ok, on friday, my goal was to go have fun, and support Dixie at the football game more than I do because I knew it was going to be a tough game. I was planning on having a happy time with all my friends, and that completly flopped. I got there and everyone was standing in the student section. 1st, I couldn't get a seat close to anybody. When I finally did, they went to go to the concession stands, and they were gone for a while. By now it was already halfway into the 2nd quarter. When they got back, it was intense. I was cheering, rather loudly I admit, when one of Lindsey's friends says "Jeeze Liam, shut up!" I knew she was being sarcastic, but she said it in an angry tone, and it still hurt my feelings. I was doing ok, just not cheering and participating, when Lindsey asked me what was wrong. I told her what had happened, and I started to cry. No, I didn't flat out bawl, I just got all teary eyed, and my nose started to sniffle, and my throat got clogged. I was really embarrassed because we were standing in the front row, and it seemed that all the cheerleaders were staring at me. Well, Lindsey noticed, and talked to her friends about it. They apoligized, but I still felt hurt on the inside. Today, I showed one of my weaknesses in public. I feel that it can make me stronger now, because I can now overcome it easier, and hopefully, it will just never happen again. I felt better afterwards, but I'm not sure what all my friends think. Oh well, I'll just learn to deal with it.
