Today, I finished the scene between Austin and the grief counsler, who's name is now Mr. Reynolds. I don't know, the original name wasn't really sitting with me too well. Anyway, this is what I got done:

MR. REYNOLDS

So, tell me a little bit about yourself Austin

AUSTIN

What do you want to know?

MR. REYNOLDS

Anything.

AUSTIN

Such as?

MR. REYNOLDS

Anything you think I should know about you.

AUSTIN

I’m a kid who’s best friend just killed herself. What else do you really need to know?

MR. REYNOLDS

I just want to get to know you. That’s all.

AUSTIN

Well I don’t see why you’re even wasting your time. I’m not going to talk to some stranger about my problems. I’m a big boy I can handle it.

MR. REYNOLDS

Austin, this isn’t something that’s just going to blow over. The more you ignore the pain, the more it’s going to hurt. I’m not wasting my time; I genuinely want to help you. So let’s just talk.

AUSTIN

You see I would, but my five minutes are up.

CUT.

Reflection: I think that I deserve a 100 for the day. I completed the scene, and for the most part I am happy with what I did today, however, after finishing up the scene, I probably stared at my laptop for about 15 minutes trying to write the next scene. I even attempted to write a scene between Austin and his parents, but it was cheesy and stupid and frankly I felt like an idiot for even writing it. Hopefully I will get some sort of idea within the next 24 hours, or maybe even earlier than that.
