Although all my fics and some other of my interesting entries/rants/essays are public, most of my entries concerning my personal life (or that have pictures of me) are friends-only.  Please comment to be added.

Randoms adding me (without commenting) are a bit creepy and won't be accepted. :)

I was in my screenwriting class, and when she told us to think up three different ideas, my mind for some reason went to the thought of fairy tales (especially those I had just newly read about in my Fairy Tales class last semester)  that hadn't been made into films. And by films, I am referring to one with the seriousness (by which I mean not a ridiculous parody or joke) Disney treats its (good) adaptations-- like The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and The Princess and the Frog. I am not including Rapunzel on this list, because it is in the works by Disney. These are works I am familiar with (which gives it a bias towards Irish and Japanese fairy tales), and that I can see working well if exteneded into a feature film--especially an animated one. I did not include stories I know, but are basically alternate versions of Snow White or Cinderella etc.

If you have one to add that I may not know or overlooked, you are more than welcome to mention it in comments.  


( The Stories )

Definitely a job that I enjoy. I can work my way up to a better salary doing something I like. Assuming the job is enough to get by on, I'd definitely prefer the one I enjoy, even if there is a better paying job available. I'd rather be getting by and happy, than miserable and wealthy. I don't need more stress by doing a job I don't like just for the money--I'll end up spending that money on stuff to cheer me up and then that makes the extra money kind of meaningless because it'd be gone that fast. If I have a job I enjoy, even if I can't have that extra stuff, I'm doing something I love and am happy, so I have less of a need to spend on that extra stuff. I'm happy without it, doing something I enjoy. I hope that's what I end up with.

That being said, still no response yet from the internships I sent cover letters and my resume out for. I keep looking for new ones, but I'm now realizing my tentative schedule for the Fall is making it a pain in the ass to find ones. A lot of them want two full week days, but by full days they mean 9-5, and I only have one day off and two others that I have class starting at 1:55 on one day and 4:30 on the other. The 1:55 one is mandatory so I can't get rid of that, and the 4:30 class would be a pain to change, but even if I could, the only alternative is an earlier class on Mondays and Wednesdays. The Tuesdays and Thursdays I have three classes right now, one of which will definitely have to be dropped if I get an internship in the fall. I won't be dropping all three though (I don't think I can and still be considered a full time student). So it's very difficult to find an internship that I will be able to do given my schedule. I am looking though, but I am still hoping for a response from someone (i do believe part of the reason I haven't gotten a response is due to the fact that some of the deadlines are still open--I'm hoping that really right now).
