Wow, sometimes my stress levels kill me to death. It was too hot in my apartment tonight so it was like everything at bad dubbing night was stressing the heck out of me. o___O How embarassing. But you guys all understand, right? I'm... weird like that sometimes. I must apologize, however- sorry. ^__^;;
Justin, your Nintendo DS is so belong to me on Monday at lunch. I WILL defeat Leslie's high score! Mwahahahaha... HAHAHAHAHAHA!
In Sociology it seems that all we do nowadays is watch movies. It's rather distressing because I took the course expecting deep, intellectual discusion. We get a lot more of than in my Law class, oddly enough, because Mr. Mahalik is awesome (he's the teacher who runs our school's anime club). Unfortunately, I happen to be kinda, sorta failing Law. But due to Mr. Mahalik's afore-mentioned awesome-ness, I have two reasonably easy (and enjoyable) make up assignments. First, he requested that I do some art for a presentation the school is putting on next week where a Holocaust Survivor is coming in to speak to us. Grim subject matter, but still I feel I'm getting let off a bit easy. Mr. Mahalik also wants me to write a paper... on absolutely anything I want pretaining to Law. That one will take a bit longer since I have to think up an interesting subject.
Oh, anyways, my point was that in Sociology we're watching this movie called 'Clean and Sober'. It's about a recovering Coaine addict and his relationship with a woman attempting to escape alcohol and an abusive husband. For awhile, it was looking like the movie was going to be a story about two people drawn together by cirsumstances who need each other as confidents and friends. And then they slept together. Which bothered me a lot more than it should. I mean, yeah I saw it coming, but once in a while I'd like to see a movie where the relationship between the lead male and the lead female isn't totally sexualized. I think that it's possible to tell a powerful story without adding romance or sexual tension into the equation. Hollywood seems to disagree, however.
Or maybe I just had no desire to see Micheal Keaton naked again. *shudders* There's something terribly unattractive about a man who's underarm hair grows halfway up his arm. *shudders again* Yeah, no more thinking about this. I just ate. >___<
From this point on, Jenn may or may not spoil Chapter 240 of Naruto
Is it just me, or does every genius ninja in this series have parental death issues? Sasuke, Neji, Gaara and now we find out Kakashi's father committed suicide? Seriously, there's some connection between being unnaturally powerful and having suffered through a parent's brutal death. But on the bright side, this whole gaiden thing is making me appreciate Kakashi about eight million (and a half) times more than I did before. I've always been mildly indifferent towards him- now I'm having fun psychoanalyzing his teenagehood and connecting everything I can to his actions as an adult. Because I'm a freak that way.
And OMG, the Yondaime rocks my socks. So hard.
