my unfinished script 3
As the punch kicks in, Jillian begins to self destruct inside from her confused feelings for Nelly. She is now stumbling around the room mumbling different little saying that no one can seem to understand. Little did an unexpected bystander know that his night would soon turn into the way that Jillian felt.
DERRICK
(Grabbing Jillian and sitting her down)
Jillian, calm down!
Nelly just called me and said he is on his way.
JILLIAN
(In an angry uproar)
Man forget Nelly, he isn’t anything to me anyway.
BUDDHA
Wow. You always are complaining about something.
And you always got your mouth open, just like your mother.
JILLIAN
He doesn’t care about me.
That’s why he not here with me.
my unfinished script 2
BUDDHA
(In a sarcastic tone but really meaning what she says)
Look at you Jillian, swallowing just like your mother used to back on the strip
JILLIAN
Whatever Buddha, nobody is even paying attention to you anyway.
Where is Nelly by the way… he said he was going to be here?
CURTIS
Don’t worry girl, he’s coming to see you.
Just relax and take notes… ha-ha
JILLIAN
(Circling the room)
Oh my he is taking a long time… you would think the way I’m looking he would come running .
my unfinished script
From the first time Jillian set her eyes upon Nelly, she was smitten. Even as she got to know his true character, Jillian still seemed to be taken back by this young man. Everyone questions her liking of Nelly, but even Jillian is lost as to why she has feelings for him. One night before a party, her feelings for Nelly would reach a new level. [The following events take place in the Stimpleton Building on campus]
DRAKE
(Shaking his head)
No more punch Jillian!!!
I think you’ve had enough!!!
JILLIAN
(Stumbling around and slurring words)
You know what Drake, I’ll let you know when I’ve had enough and right now, I have not had enough punch so get off my back!!!
I share
To... you

THANKS TO ALL FOR BRINGING THE 'CROWDSOURCED' PROJECT TOGETHER
PB
pt 3
In the film technology is the back bone to everything. In this school filled with geniuses everybody’s looking for new ways to use technology and the best uses for it. The goal for better technology can also change people and the way they treat others. This movie seemed to portray the good and bad of using technology in sort of a domino effect. For example the CIA’s pursuit for a more powerful laser is due to technology. Professor Hathaway’s drive for technology is what makes treat the students bad and make them do all his work. Mitch’s use of technology is got him recruited in to school at such a young age, 15. This shows both sides of how technology can get the best of us. The technology used in the film are types technologies that we use today on an everyday bases. Like the science lab that they were using to build the laser. Or some of the science projects in the beginning of the film.
top 5 favorite movie ...Real genius pt 2
All of Chris’s efforts focused back on the laser project. But everything seemed to be ruined due to Kent sabotaging the project. Chris then has an epiphany and figures out to solve the problem. The beam turns out to be hotter than the sun and meets all requirements. Professor Hathaway is impressed by all the work Chris put into the project forgives him for his past mishaps. When they complete the laser the students realize that the laser is actually a high energized weapon. So they make the decision that the laser has to be destroyed. But they realized that Professor Hathaway has already taken the laser. They follow Hathaway to an Air Force base where the laser was strapped to a bomb. With the help of former student Lazlo the students were able to rearrange the coordinates of the bomb to Hathaway’s house where they set up Kent’s braces with a reflector which destroys the bomb.
Top 5 favorite movie ...Real genius
The film “Real Genius” is about a young high school science genius, Mitch, who gets recruited to attend an elite university, with other geniuses to work on a CIA laser project. While there Mitch meets one of the senior students Chris who is also working on the laser project but has too much fun partying and goofing around instead of focusing on school. Mitch is constantly being pranked on by other students at school the most part because they are jealous of him.
Some of my thoughts on this
I feel like America has already fallen into the narcissistic mindset. You can see it every day in our society people are always thinking for themselves instead of others. Every time someone becomes famous or rich their egos start to get bigger and they feel better than everybody else. But it’s something hard to avoid because narcissism is so widespread. If this country isn’t narcissistic than the majority of us Americans have a strong case of Narcissistic Personality Disorder.
Narcissist right under our nose
For those that don't know....
For those that don't know.... Narcissism is when an individual is egotistical and thinks of themselves above all others. It is an epidemic that is taking over the American population. These individuals are also preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love. The self-esteem by our people is at an all-time, for example college students have scored 80% higher than in the 1960’s. It is encouraged to always believe in yourself and never give up on anything you do but sometimes it can turn for the worst. Narcissism isn’t necessarily a bad thing but most dictators or other forms of leadership show signs of this. Compared to Narcissism having a Narcissistic Personality Disorder is very similar. It is described as an isolating, disenfranchising, painful, and formidable for those living with it and often those who are in a relationship with them.
America land of the ........Narcissist?!
I feel that America is being affected by Narcissism because of the ongoing trends going on within our society. Children and teenagers have higher self-esteems and are showing different traits than in years before also. I looked up research done on college campuses and found that students, having so much self-admiration have taken a change for the worst. In 2006 students answered a series of questions that were given to students in 19-79-86. Over the two decades 30% of these students have answered the questions in a narcissistic direction. The rise of the narcissism epidemic has also effect other epidemics also. People no longer want to work to achieve goals but just have everything given to them. Everyone just wants to go straight to the top of being rich and famous. An example of this is Paris Hilton because she encourages a rich and famous lifestyle. She has never worked a specific job a day in her life and she just lives off her father’s money. Linsey Lohan is also an example of this and is known for using drugs in the public. They affect millions of teenagers across the country.
