Doctor doctor

Thursday, August 4th, 2005

I just got back from a session with my therapist. I don’t really know if the session was good because I did most of the talking. We didn’t talk about my sister much though. We talked more about mom. My sessions are usually just me ranting about my mom so that’s nothing new but he wants mom to have a session with him next week. Let’s see how that goes.

I got irritated with him and told him off a bit. I told him that I don’t think Prodin is working and maybe I need a different medicine. He prescribed me Prodiethrin (?) which he gave me before already and didn’t work. So I asked him why he doesn’t keep a record of what he prescribes to his patients and his answer struck me dumb. He said “Hmmm. Bat nga kaya?” (Hmm. I wonder why.) WTF?! I wanted to smack him after he said that. I’m beginning to suspect that he’s a fake and he’s just in it for money. But I did some quick thinking and remembered that my sessions with him are helping me somehow. But he really hardly takes notes. If he does, they’re usually on loose paper and there’s no record for each patient. Surprisingly, he still remembers the things we talked about before but I still think he should keep a record. Since I wanted to know the details of his session with mom, I told him to take notes for that. I know it’s bad but I feel like he’s easy to bully and I’m tempted to bully him more.

Just let me brag for a bit. I was googling my name and found them on sites about the film I interned for when I was in LA. I won’t write my name here but if you have time and patience, look for the name of the production assistant.

WEW Online’s Writing A Sex Scene Workshop

Thursday, August 4th, 2005

Wide Eyed Workshops is currently holding an online workshop for writing good sex scenes. For those interested, join the forum at wewonline.bravehost.com/ then follow the directions for the online workshops. I’m still deciding on whether to join the sex scenes writing or not. I’m not sure if I can do the following exercises:

1) Place your characters in any of the following scenarios: weddingnight, first time(e.g. first sexual experience, first orgasm, etc.) a bad sexual experience.
Or
Write a sex scene that includes dialogue. Then write a sex scene without.

2) Write an explicit sex scene. Then write a subtle sex scene.
Or
Incorporate a change in environment within your scene (e.g. from the elevator to the parking lot)
Or
Write a sex scene that takes place in a bedroom. Then write the same sex scene if it were to occur in another place (e.g. hotel room, park, while on vacation).

3) Write an unsexy sex scene.

I have to do some thinking about this.

Side note:
You may have noticed the ‘Make Poverty History’ banner on my page. I joined it hoping that the wealthy countries will drop Philippine’s debt. Our country really needs it.
