so i guess the haitus is over. i am back to writing in this thing i suppose. but what to write? who knows. nothing interesting has happened to me in recent memory. i don't want to be back at school. it's not like i really dislike what i'm doing or anything, i just really miss sleeping in and staying up late. it kinda doesn't work when i have 26 hours of class a week.

k, so i have to start writing so i can get into this playwrighting course next year. i have to write some monologues or plays or journals (not these ones, as this thing really doesn't show off my "talents"). i feel like shit, not writing anything since high school Writer's Craft. i think that i really have to forced to do it. having deadlines forces me to actually get my shit together and write something, even if it's not so great, it's ten times better than not having anything done. i feel as though i've covered this topic already in this oh-so-riveting journal of mine. on to other things.

no, wait, back to writing for a second. so my brother, the unemployed, "struggling" comic is now taking a scriptwriting course at george brown. he told me the funniest plot outlines that he's come up with. now i will tell you. 1) Polish Winter - about a young boy who is really unhappy. his parents send him to see a doctor who tells him that all he needs is a really great vacation. the boy is obsessed with the holocaust and wants to go to Auschweizt (sp?). obviously, his parents don't want to send him there for his vacation, but he throws a temper tantrum and they agree. they tell him that they are going to drive there, but are secretly going to Disney Land instead. His ending is really dumb so i'm not even going to write it.
2) I forget what this one's called but here's the plot: a low level politician gets assissinated. his spirit enters a golden retriever that belongs to the only son of a really rich man. so now his personality and speaking abilities are in the dog. eventually he figures out that he should still run for office and that he has a better chance of winning as a dog. so a bunch of funny stuff happens in between and in the end it looks as though he'll never make into office, but then the president desperately needs him and he goes and he saves the day. he runs for president and wins by a landslide. then he makes an all-animal cabinet. the end. i happen to think these are pretty good plots. sorry if i bored anyone with the descriptions.
