Never Say Never

Never ever ever have I had writer's block. I have written many things that simply are not good. But I've always written SOMETHING. I always have so much to say people have to shut me up sometimes.

But for some reason on this past weekend and Monday afternoon, I have found it impossible to write a draft of paper 2. I've thought about it continuously but no original thoughts come out. I feel passionately about the ads that I picked but I cannot for some reason write about them. Even though I feel there is so much to say!

So I figured hey maybe a minute blog stream of consciousness might help. Dont laugh..


Advertising. Selling. What the viewer wants... desire - is it necessary? do they need it? must be made necessary. not selling real product selling life through celebrities models relationships love lust beauty

effect on society - conned into buying what we dont really need. how do we fall for this? so obvious yet not so. made subtle connections not out in the open. ads become socially accepted. so much exposure. this exposure changes our ideals for life. personal goals and desires dictated by advertisements.

Pathetically, my minute just ended and that is all I have...

Oh well, I'll just keep going till 5 pm Tuesday.

I definitely understand how you feel. I am having a really hard time writing a draft of paper 2. My problem is I am overwhelmed by the fact that it has to be 6-7 pages. That is crazy to me. I will also be writing mine until 5 pm tomorrow.

paper 2 is killing me. i feel like i can write a ton on my ads but when i try i can't. it's weird and i hate it. i'm so bored from sitting and staring at my computer trying to tap into creative energy. i'm praying for a miracle.
