materials
I always viewed life as material for a movie.
procrastination writing finding-yourself
When you find yourself on the Internet when you're supposed to be writing, you've already lost. It's even beyond procrastination when you end up on the Internet.
vulnerable reactions knows
There's something really vulnerable about playing something that you like for someone. You don't know what their reaction will be.
scene ends uncomfortable
I don't like when you necessarily know that this is the end of the movie. I like when a movie ends abruptly. You go through this, and some of the scenes are uncomfortable, and some are funny - and then suddenly it's over.
directors watches inspired
I watch movies all the time, so it's hard to pick certain specific directors that have inspired me in the aggregate.
lines said pick-up-line
I'm sure I've said some pretty bad pick-up lines.
procrastination trying procrastinating
I try to procrastinate, if I can, productively, like I'll work on something else as procrastination. Or I take a walk. Because often I find, if you get out, more things come to you.
