Ain't nobody home...

Just catching up on some fellow students' posting on the UCLA blackboard. I've had some comments from someone regarding my treatment, quizzing that it showed lots of action, of what was happening on screen, but she didn't get the characterization. I wanted to reply, well, thanks, that's the point of a treatment! Cinema is action, not people looking in the mirror at their tattoo's and thinking maybe they won't kill themselves today. I tried to be more constructive than that...

And our great leader was AWOL again for a while, and he's since come back and still not commented on my posts or even replied to a direct email. His biggest contribution thus far has been to continually apologize for his absence..but he's a working writer, director...blah, blah - Alan, I don't give a fuck - the first time you apologized, you said you didn't want to short change anyone. Well, you have. The frustration is more that I'm not sure if all unit courses are like this, or just this one? Should I continue or not? That, dear reader is the question.

I've just read that brain function decreases after you're 27! And memory is shot after 37, but at least you won't remember how clever you used to be. Though, your ability to collect general information increases until you're about 60, which is probably why pensioners wander about B&Q spouting nonsense to anyone is earshot. At 37, I just can't remember why I'm in B&Q to begin with...
