just now

2 ½ hours until fade-in, I haven’t used Celtx since last June so I’ll probably have to write the first lines with plain old OpenOffice. Not that there’s anything wrong with it.

I keep having serious doubts about Screnzy even now, which is kinda worrying. I’m going to write a comedy script, and though I love watching shows like Green Wing or Frasier, comedy’s never really been my thing. Of course, last time I proved that I can write absolute shit that would interest no one (and this isn’t modesty, I really mean it), but still… The bigger problem, though, is the fact that I’ve got all the exams coming just now. I had two courses maths, and biology and religion and Finnish, so it’s not going to be a piece of cake. Once the exams are over, I’ve lost like a week of the month. I’m so going to die.

I bought a nice new cd, Poets of the Fall’s Revolution Roulette.  Love it.

Please forget me ever promising anything. I’m not gonna keep it anyway.

There hasn’t really been much to tell, and I make enough nonsense-entries in Imaginary. I do have enough on my plate already (or I’ve made myself believe so…) so I haven’t had energy to plan Screnzy (although Haru-chan kindly drafted a charming pianist guy for me) or really anything. I haven’t even browsed the forums much, so I’m not sure whether I’ll make it this time.

This wasn’t supposed to be so gloomy entry. Actually I have only two reasons for my misery: a hurting leg and a stupid Finnish essay due tomorrow. The reason I don’t have time to do anything is House. That’s about it.

Ooh, Script Frenzy!

March already? I’m still scared, I’m still having doubts but I should’ve known that I’d get as enthusiastic as always. I found a OpenOffice document full of funny Screnzy slogans from last year and got swept into the interesting world of icon-making. I’ll probably be making more and post them here for your enjoyment.

I’m going to write a tv-script. I’ve watched relatively few movies, so the whole idea of a movie seemed kind of frightening. I don’t suppose tv-writing will be any easier, but I’m more familiar with tv than films. And then I accidentally got the idea: Green Wing meets school world. I thought I might ask a few friends to scetch one or two characters for me so it wouldn’t be just my dull imagination just writing my own teachers a little bit more odd than they already are.

There it is, pretty, isn’t it :D Now I’m going to go and browse the Screnzy forums and make some more icons (and read Oliver Twist and write the bloody essay…) but I promise more frequent updates from now on.

And while I’m at it, please let me recommend to you the excellent comedy series Green Wing (have I mentioned it earlier? Err…). It’s set in a hospital, but don’t make the mistake thinking it’s an ordinary hospital soap – it isn’t. Oh God, I wish I could write something half as funny.

Edit: I was a bit bored so I made a couple of SF-themed icons. Enjoy!
