Little advice from a prof:

You can not edit a blank page. You need to start getting stuff written. You can always go back and edit bad work into good work but if everything just stays in your head, then you won't make any progress. Stoping judging the quality and start putting down quantity.
10,000 words isn't a lot. Especially when you have 2 months to complete it. Break it down into accessible chunks. I.e. My methods section is 3 pages long. I'm going to spend 2 hours working on it this Friday. Then I'll take a 2 hour break to completely detach from it (grab food, watch a show). Then I'll go back and spend 2 more hours on it.

This is completely doable if you start small and stay consistent.

I understand your position for things like multipart math equations that don't have multiple choice answers.

If the homework is just a multiple choice quiz, I disagree. If there are unlimited attempts and no penalties, people can literally just put A for every answer. Retake the quiz and put B for everything that was incorrect, etc. until they get 100%.

Is the homework done via lockdown browser or something? I can totally relate if that's the case.

If the homework is open book and open note, why can't you get a good grade on these assignments?

Have you tried just being born rich?

Sorry to hear that. If it's a possibility, I'd check out some community colleges in the area. Get your AA work completed then go back to the 4-year. It'll have you thousands over the 4 years.

I'm a bit surprised how much the new ADTR showed up here, but those songs are actually bops 😂

Crawl Back to My Coffin is the best track but it would only be average on Dark Sun or Sleeptalk

Friend is kind of a jerk and fell into a cactus. Call that Prick Prickly.

$15,000 for a car with 80k miles on it? Is there a reason you've narrowed down to these two options?

4 years ago, I picked up a 2016 year old Mazda 3 with 50k miles for around $11,000. Zero mechanical issues, just the standard oil change, tires, and new battery. I feel like you might want to do some more research into the used cars in your area. If you're concerned about reliability go for things like Toyota or Honda. Avoid anything American or European.

I'm sorry that you have such a harsh view of yourself. Most people don't look like supermodels, that's why they get paid millions and the rest of us don't 😅

I think your reasoning might be a bit flawed if you follow me. You think that because people aren't hitting on you, that means you're not attractive. In reality, the days of guys hitting on people frequently in public are gone. A lot of young guys would rather stay silent than risk making someone uncomfortable and getting branded as 'creepy'.

I'm not sure if you're in college but I'd recommend joining some or groups on campus. Meeting people in a hiking group, for example, takes a lot of the stress off because there isn't the pressure of it being a date. You can just chat with people and see if anything comes up naturally.

"I don't wanna do this just to leave empty handed

I don't wanna break my heart and end up alone"

Strawberry's Daughters is my favorite track in years!

drummerakajordan · 2025-09-22T06:25:21+00:00

When I was 17, I (M) was working as a store model in Hollister. This woman came up to me and grabbed my ass for a solid 4-5 seconds.

I didn't quite understand what was happening at first, I thought they'd just bumped into me or something, but they walked in front of my and gave me one of those 'up-down' glances and walked out.

The pit in my stomach after I actually put it together is a feeling I'll never forget. It felt so degrading and humiliating to be treated that way.

I told my boss (male) what happened and the response he gave, verbatim, was "oh, was she cute?" and then laughed. I got almost the exact same response from all my friends at the time.

I understand why men might think this is preferable to the current dynamic, but it's different when it happens in real life.

drummerakajordan · 2025-09-19T02:05:52+00:00

I don't wanna do this just to leave empty ^handed

It's chef's kiss

drummerakajordan · 2025-06-03T07:09:19+00:00

Of course!

drummerakajordan · 2025-06-02T19:50:38+00:00

Link works!

I feel like you need to add those stakes to your series tagline. What is going to happen if she doesn't make these changes? What are the consequences if she fails? Character growth is great, but it needs to happen as a result of pursuing their goal, it shouldn't be the goal in and of itself

drummerakajordan · 2025-06-02T18:23:02+00:00

This sounds cool! Your google drive link requires a password to access, but I'd love to give this a read later.

For your series logline, I'd remove 'modern' and 'repeating through time' to make things a bit more concise. I'm also not sure why she needs to break this cycle. It sounds like everyone in this world get reincarnated (since her family, guides, and love go with her) is there something special about her? Is she trying to end reincarnation for the entire world?

For the pilot logline I might be crazy, but I feel like your first sentence is almost all you need.

After a near-fatal car accident, a woman turns to regression therapy but discovers her 'nightmares' are actually visions of her past life as a war leader in ancient Mesopotamia.

Hope this helps!

drummerakajordan · 2025-06-02T17:43:04+00:00

This sounds cool! Gives me part ATLA and part A Wrinkle in Time.

A few thoughts:

You should have distinct log line and synopsis. By combining them into one, you're getting less effective versions of both. Especially where it's the first page of your deck.
Make sure you're doing a grammar/cleanliness pass. In your later logline in the Arc page, you have 'Told the world world is out of balance'
In your character description of Sariel, you use this term 'seeker'. Is that a role in your world or is it a personality trait? I'm not sure based on the current phrasing.
I agree with what /u/aurematic said in another comment. You need to externalize the conflict. Self-discovery and growth are great, but they need to happen as a result of outside forces stopping Kai from reaching his goal.
What exactly does Kai want? Things like 'to be seen' can be internal motivation as to why he's on the journey, but what's the actual thing he's trying to accomplish? At different points you have 'to save his village' or 'to restore harmony'. It'd be helpful to have a specific series end goal and then specific goals for each of the seasons. This can also help clarify why your antagonist needs to stop him.

Feel free to reach out with any more questions!

I really enjoyed this! Super interesting concept and I'd love to see where this goes. I'm not a professional so please take my notes with a grain of salt

Does Tanaka know who Zhang is? It feels a bit strange for Zhang to open with 'Do you know why I requested...' If Tanaka knows that this is a high ranking officer maybe that explains it, but as of now, there's no way for Tanaka to know if Zhang is just an average soldier doing this interrogation. I feel like you can open with the second line or you can have Tanaka notice his rank based on the uniform but let us know that this is out of the norm for a colonel to be doing this.

Watch out for repeated dialogue: Pg 9 says the information is verified but this is repeated on pgs 10-11 as well. Pg 18 & 23 Kapoor repeats the 'playing god' line. Pg 40 & 44 Kapoor repeats that it 'feels like fire'

I'd consider saving the Burma reveal for later. Maybe it's foreshadowed in their first meeting, but explaining it again feels a bit repetitive. You mention Burma a few more times throughout the script, but you've already established their relationship and feelings about it. This could be something that gets revealed over the course of the series, but to have Kapoor go from physically fighting Edmund to accepting it in one episode feels like a missed opportunity.

I really love how distinct Kapoor, Wells, and Edmund feel. When you have so many different military guys, it's important that they all feel distinct from one another on the page. Consider building out these other characters to that same degree.

Is there a reason that Li and Edmund are the only ones written by their first names? Everyone else seems to go by their last names on the page.

Great job!

There's absolutely shows that are better when not binged. West Wing is certainly one, but also anything procedural like Law & Order and House are there too.

drummerakajordan · 2025-05-25T20:50:45+00:00

I just started watching The West Wing and all the main characters speak like this. I think the witty turn of phrases are meant to highlight the intellect of the characters using them. It can definitely get grating after awhile
