ATTENTION:
i have a pair of preview tickets for
the myth, this wednesday evening at lido so anyone who wants to go just uh, get in touch with me. i'm personally not really keen on the show but it's free anyway so i might as well. and how often does one get to go for early screenings! for RJ arts students, prelims will be over by then so yeah. rather short notice and i don't know if anyone even READS this but oh well.
-------
been reading em forster's
aspects of the novel in an attempt to attune my mind to higher levels of literary study for the paper in a few hours time. the guy is a genius. the way he dissects the art form of the novel is amazing, comparing it and putting it alongside life. however, what's the point of understanding the technical infrastructure of the elements that make up a novel, when you have no actual examples to really do so? actually i don't even know why i'm reading it now, when i would rather work on plays and poetry. doesn't really apply there, although he does criticize drama at some points.
Any strong emotion brings with it the illusion of permanenceHomo Sapiens and Homo Fictus... They are people whose secret lives are visible or might be visible; we are people whose secret lives are invisible.-------from
colorgenics , parts i perceive to be
correct in bold, and those that
don't really describe me are italicized.
You work hard,
seeking success.
You are self-sufficient and in spite of all the trials and tribulations that have beset you in the past you carry on regardless. You are one to be admired because you pursue your objectives single-mindedly and with initiative. You know that you can 'do it' and what is more, you will - without necessarily being dependent upon the goodwill of others.
Most people are conditioned by their environment and you are no exception. You are an extremely emotional person - so much so that 'the wrong word' can lead you to tears. You feel other people's pain. You feel the need of sympathetic relationships and a pleasant work environment in order to develop and grow. You are an impulsive, loving individual with a great deal of inherent feeling.
Conditions are rather confusing at this time. You would like to involved with a particular person or a particular situation but you are holding back. You find it difficult to make a decision.
As of late, you have been experiencing untold stress and this is a result of continuous frustration. You haven't been taking care of all your physical needs and it's beginning to show (pimples!). It would seem that you have a need to find someone to whom you can really relate - someone perhaps whose standards are as high as your own. You want to be different - to be individualistic - to stand out from the common herd. Your inherent control of your sensual instincts is restricting your ability to give yourself to open up freely but this being on your own, being lonely, often makes you feel the need to give up some of your strict standards to surrender to the general flow - to be like everyone else; a part of the herd. Deep down you regard such instincts as weaknesses to be overcome. You would like to be loved or admired for yourself alone. You demand recognition and tender loving care.
You are afraid that you may not be able to realize or achieve your hopes and desires and so you insist that people should accept you as you are and appreciate your rights to anything that you aspire to.
