Friend: You Look Stressed Me: Haha Yeah It’s The Stress

yeah star sign whatever but are you a “what else can i possibly throw in to finally hit this word count”-person or a “the word count actively limits my freedom of expression and only exists because whoever set it fears my unlimited power”-person?

you can always start over. you can always catch up. you can still be who you dream of being. it’s not too late for you.

I am both the worst and best partner for group work. On the one hand we won the debate and destroyed the team so successfully that the prof had to step in to help the prosecution. On the other I made them meet in person three times before today and ensured that nobody left the study room before everyone of us knew what we were saying. It took 4 hours. We have 10 pages of notes.

Dead Poets Society and Mental Illness

I realise that this may come at a sensitive time due to the tragic and heartbreaking death of Robin Williams through depression and suicide, but I’ve had this on my mind for a long time, and I want to write it out to clear my head of it.

Todd and Social Anxiety. At the start of the film (and less so throughout) Todd is a very anxious, jittery fellow, who refuses to read poetry in front of other people, stammers a little and remains very quiet. These are all classic signs of Social Anxiety Disorder.

Neil and Bipolar Disorder. One minute, Neil is playing Puck and is so incredibly happy. The next, he is dead. Although Bipolar disorder generally takes longer than that to change between stages, some people do report that their Bipolar Disorder can se over a day or two. Just look at the rest of the film: Neil is either wildly passionate and reckless (eg. throwing the desk set over the bridge) or he is utterly blank and quiet (eg. when with his parents after the performance). I think he had, to some extent, Bipolar Disorder.

Charlie and Depression. Throughout the film, Charlie presents himself as a reckless, happy and funny character. However, I feel like he had depression. He was so reckless and unconsciously attention-seeking that he pulled that phone prank, consequences be damned, just for that tiny bit of attention. He cried when he told Todd of Neil’s death. He appears so internally broken in some scenes (“Damn it Neil, the name’s Nuwanda.” coming to mind) that I can’t help but think he was depressed. Due to his reckless and impulsive behaviours, I feel like Neil’s death would have shocked and damaged him as much as Todd, if not more. I mean, he punched a sneak knowing that he would be expelled. He had given up. Another sign of depression.

Sony and Monster Fuckers Right Now:

Someone should have told the dude bros that Venom 2 was never meant for them. They should have known that after Venom (2018) made almost a billion at the box office.

keating: where’s charlie?

cameron, remembering that charlie got his head stuck in a tuba after keating told him to leave it alone, and that he’s supposed to cover for the dead poets as they frantically work together to free charlie's head from the tuba: who’s charlie?
