HEY WOMAN. GIVE US SOME SEPARATE PARAGRAPHS, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD. –MR. B.
My first dream ever was to become an archeologist, when I was five years old, but a long time has passed since then. Then my dreams were to become an actor, when I was seven, but soon gave up after I looked at my reflection in the mirror, and then I wanted to become a professional judo player. When I was eleven, and I remember that my stimuli for wanting to become a judo player was because I wanted fight with my uncle, who is still about twice as big as I am, so he’s really big. Then, I kind of realized that I should become less like a man, so I chose to be a detective when I was thirteen. That dream lasted for about two years, but then, I had to give in to my hopeless sports skills, because I was, am, am going to be bad at sports, forever. This seemed soo unfair!
Then after watching eight movies in a row (when I was living in Moscow and my parents were out for two days) I really wanted to be a movie director. I admire how the directors hold the black and white cardboard thing and say ‘action!’ and ‘cut!’, and they also look really cool and TV when they explain how they directed their pieces. But most of all, I want to meet some celebrities such as Ha Jung Woo, Gang Ji Hwan, Jang Geun Seok and lots more.
Being in English Seminar class, I have a chance to at least try making a movie, because it is what I always wanted to do, and upload it on Youtube (hopefully). I have part of the storyboard ready, but not the whole thing. My short film is not exactly funny, and I’m not a very funny person, so I tried to make it funny by adding some very ironic pieces of music, and picture, such as Wondergirls ‘Tell me’, Big Bang ‘Gujitmal’, Kim Chu Ja ‘Gujitmaliya’, and for picture, I plan to put a picture of a pig before and after every flashback moments, because, my favorite animal is a pig and I’d like to put it as a mascot. I am hoping these pieces of music make the movie a little more enjoyable.Thank you for bearing with my post about myself and my film.
Sandy : 9th grade school nerd
Tom : 9th grade boy, hates Sandy
Student Detective : fellow 9th grader, very serious
Librarian
Detective - So…how did this all happen?
Sandy - It…it was an accident! I really didn’t mean to do Tom any harm!
Detective - You mean that you accidently stabbed a knife into his stomach, when the blade was open.
Flashback
(Sandy walks down the hallway, and sees Tom)
Sandy - Hi Tom! How is your day going? I got a 100 percent on the science test! I thought I was going to get an F or something worse!
Tom - I never asked your science grade, go away.
Sandy - (seems not to have heard Tom) Oh, yesterday I was at a flee market, and I bought this really cool knife for 5000 won. (Flicks the knife open as she shows it to him, and turns face to face with him) Isn’t it pretty?
Tom - I don’t care where you spend your money on, even for drugs, which you seem to take daily. I recommend a medicine that increases your IQ instead of drugs.
Sandy - Oh, and - (accidently trips over her shoelaces, as she steps to the left side, plunging the knife into Tom’s stomach)
(Tom freezes, blood comes out)
Sandy - Oh…. (blinks stupidly, not knowing the seriousness of the problem yet) are you ok?
(Tom falls to the ground, then Sandy realizes that she killed Tom, and runs away, her hands over her head)
End of flashback
Sandy - (hesitates) Yes…But I really didn’t mean any harm! Tom and I are best friends, you know.
Detective - (makes a face) I………uhh…..see.
Sandy - I ——
Detective - Then what happened to the school librarian? Was that ALSO an accident?
Sandy - Yes, I just wanted to ask her to recommend some books on crime…and…
Flashback
Sandy - (out of breath, starts talking to the librarian)Hello, can you recommend some books on crime?
Librarian - Sure follow me. (Looks at Sandy’s arm, with some blood, and gives it a strange look)
(It takes Sandy a while to realize what she is looking at)
Sandy - Oh, this isn’t anything! It’s just some paint from art class.
Librarian - (apparently scared of Sandy, hands her a huge, heavy book) I think this has everything you would want to find on crime.
Sandy - Thank you. (receives the book, but is too heavy, and accidently hits the librarian on the head, knocking her out) Ah!
(Librarian is on the floor, dead. Sandy runs out of the library)
End of flashback
Sandy - I ACCIDENTLY killed two people before lunchtime. It’s really…
Detective - Odd.
Sandy - Look, I’m really clumsy. I gave my baby sister a doll for her birthday, and the next day, I had muddy boots on…and something was in my way, so I…
Detective - (Sighs) Don’t tell me you stepped on the doll’s face.
Sandy - I didn’t.. I stepped on my sister’s. Years later she still has a squashed nose. But how did you know it was me?
Detectives - Your shoe was next to Tom’s body, and there was also a science test with a score of a 50%, which has your name on it.
Sandy - (Looks down in embarrassment)
