Awww.
Ke$ha fits Hannah's vibe later in the script, but I'm not sure at the start. I'm thinking Avril Lavigne sort of stuff.

Hahahahaha. BRILLIANT!
Hannah wants to break free from everything her parents expect her to be, she's always had a rebellious streak, but Nick helps her break free. Cue drunken nights and sex on the beach. And maybe drugs. Nick has an ex, but he hasn't told me how she fits into the plot yet. |

Wrote 500 words so far! Now to work up the motivation to do homework that's already late...
Don't professors understand that it's hard to concentrate on essays when ghosts, witches and characters that don't listen are bouncing around in your head?

No, professors totally don't understand that. I wish they would.
What year are you in college? After my first i quickly realized how little i would ever be able to write while school was going on.

And yes i know there are. But they don't work as well as i'd like them too. Sometimes i wish i could get a hold of ADHD medication, i hear that keeps you really awake and focused.

DAMN IT!!! They stole my idea hahahahah! or i stole there's oh well, i would still love if they were real.
As tempted i've been to some how find ADHD meds and use them, i know they totally have to have some horrible side effects if you use them too much. My friend and i had a nerdy fight over this issue, because we were sleep deprived and ended up talking about what would happen if you used them too much... I actually think there is a Law and Order SVU episode on it, my friend told me.

I'm a freshman at the moment. And coffee is the only thing that keeps me from collapsing to the ground in exhaustion.
I think caffeine pills sound like a great idea, actually, I might have to go find some!
