Plus, I just am way to attached to the writing...I can't make interesting character choices because I wrote it and I know how I wrote the characters...so I can't see them for anything but what I wrote them for...
wow that just blew my mind!!!! :shock:

The narrators do, however, disagree on how the world actually works, as the narrator of “I’m nobody! Who are you?” simply accepts that the world does not accept her as she is, and thus she labels herself as a “nobody.” This label comes from her belief that since she does not fit the social norm, then she is not a “somebody” and, therefore, can only be a “nobody.” This cannot be true, as by being a “nobody” she is actually being a “somebody”. In other words, the act of labeling herself as a “nobody” has affirmed her existence and therefore cannot be “nobody” and must be “somebody.”
I think that was it!

Oddly enough...yes! lol

But I make crazy arguments like that all the time...used to piss my teachers off in high school and college both...

My favorite (and most simple one) was when a proff was talking about how there's no such thing as absolute truth...and how ridiculous the concept was...I raised my hand and asked a simple question: "So are you saying that there's absolutely no absolute truth?"

His face got really red and he stormed out of the room...

I love doing stuff like that...especially when you're normally a really sweet quiet person in class but secretly hate the teacher so you just wait for your moment to strike heehee

A friend of mine just sent me a suicide note via email. I just called his doctor and his father. I just forwarded the email to both of them. I'm trying to calm down. I haven't even watched the video yet.

*Sigh!**

off I go.. to try to watch it, finally!!
