लाइफ sucks

I don't know what I'm going to do now. My film idea just got stolen, by the person who was going to be the subject of my film. He is an asshole. And I'm glad I've decided not to make a film on him. He is indecisive and passive - two qualities that I had been ignoring till now - but no more. I haven't told him yet, but he will be thrilled. Little does he know he will not get any more free advice from me about anything EVER - and he can say goodbye to any collaborations in the future.

I'm happy to reject him, but that also means I am screwed. I think the best thing I can do now is not worry too much, and make something totally free - without any pressure, until I become paranoid and feel screwed all over again.

I hate people who take advantage of me - and I make sure they never do it again. That's fine, but I'm really stuck now. Its week one now - I can give myself a couple of more weeks, I guess. I should email Hyper Howie and inform him about my decision. I'm not sure if I should confront asshole aki before that - maybe I should.

For now, I'm going home.

The only good news is that I finally used Final Cut Pro today - with the two screens and all. I started editing my film from last quarter. It looks decent, and I'm happy to be editing, as always.

Okay, so pray for me, wish me luck, tell your gods to make some brilliant cinema through me, or just a decent looking film will do for now... :-/

WTH? For real? How could he do that and face you after?

I say you give him a piece of your mind...good luck with an alternate idea!

Yeah, it is for real! I believe that everything happens for a reason - and i think i've learnt an important lesson this time.
About giving him a piece of my mind - that's where the problem comes in. I generally avoid confrontations, but I think i'll cover up with my sarcasm. He will pay for this [evil laughter]!
