A new challenge: writing a script

I’m getting to an interesting point of my life where I am standing firmly on the ground and at the same time with my head in clouds. I love being in balance, especially in such case. 

As you can tell by the title of the post – I am writing the script. Or better yet, preparing to write one. Last two times I started writing a script failed cuz I hadn’t done any research at all on how to, what to avoid, etc. This time I have basic steps in my mind and after 2 years I am getting back to writing. 

It won’t necessarily mean that I will finish the story this time. By no means I will let it be proofread if it isn’t ready. I think I am at the point when I can select how the story should flow, create characters that would speak for themselves and simply come up with something new in its own unique way. I am not ready for actual writing, yet.

I think the story has huge potential and if anything else I believe this to be true for every single story I have in mind. But because I am an uneducated weirdo, it will take much time to finish the script until my perfection is satisfied. And I will wait for the right moment even if it takes my whole life. I don’t want to spoil this wonderful thing. 

Before I start writing and that’s what I do now is deciding what I want to tell in this story the most, what topics I need to cover. I have some written down, constantly making up new ones and then I’ll choose what can work best. It’s very important cuz that would eventually determine how big the potential of this script might be.

I have 84 days until I graduate. I am absolutely not prepared for any topic or exam. I am also doing driving license exam to which I am not prepared either. I am giving myself an award of best procrastinator of 2009 so far but at least I am learning a new language and doing great, staying optimistic despite the problems that occur every day and now I am having myself occupied with the script. 

In 84 days, I will be born again into Lenka that I’ve always wanted to be. And there’s nothing I am looking forward to more. Well, there might be one or two other things ;) Right?

Wish me luck! :))
