ADAM:(Voiceover)
They say the first four people you see in a day you become most like
Adam sits on the edge of his bed and looks into a mirror
FADE TO screen that reads: 1:47pm
ADAM sits at his desk drawing
ADAM: (voiceover)
You see the issue with our mind is that it plays tricks on us. We
have been indoctrinated into observing the world in an optimistic
way, blocking out realism in order to shield our emotions from the
penetrating facts that we as humans are actually the true
incarnations of Satan. You see me, Im a little morerealistic than
most.
ADAM sits with his legs crossed and stares at his wall full of
drawings. He scratches his arms hard enough to pierce his skin and
it begins to bleed.
FADE TO screen that reads: 3:18pm
ADAM exhales smoke and then consumes a number of tablets.
ADAM: (Voiceover)
I enjoy isolation. It suppresses my urges to carry out socially
unacceptable desires. Human interaction is such a complex concept
to explain; behaviour is not a qualitative measure and only through
observation are we able to interpret the true symbolism behind our
actions.
ADAM picks up a knife and repeatedly stabs it into a piece of
pillow.
