OK scratch that. My mind is mush, Ill repost what I said when I have a little sleep in me and and can convey it better in words.
Today I am working on a paper due Monday, and I have to give a speech on it sometime next week; I am writing about the history of horror films and seem to be doing rather well on it. I showed it to my friend and the first thing he said was, 'Wheres King Kong?'.
WTF? King Kong? A Horror film? I can see what he's saying (based on the timeframe the original came out in) but I just dont think of King Kong as a horror movie, am I all alone on this? Perhaps I should just make the paper on whether or not Kong should be considered one of the great horror films or not. Who knows?
Schools just messing me up right now. Everything I thought I knew they are telling me is wrong, and frankly I dont care much about how someone else did it - I just want to learn how to use the equipment then do it my own way. Sometimes I think it is like the football camp my step-brother went to all through middle and high school. They can teach you the ropes, polish you up a bit, but you cant teach the talent. Right now maybe I just plain suck and am trying to find loopholes in the teachings to fool myself, or maybe Im just sick of trying to look at things and try to work them out using someone elses methods.
I dunno. 40 hours at work and just as much at school a week is killing me.
Save me Bobby Bourbon, you are the Swoo's only hope.
