didn't get my scholarship back. while i feel i was screwed over on a couple of grades, it just reinforces for me the fact that school really isn't making me happy, so basically, i'm dropping out. i'm tired of pumping money into an institution that is not giving me much of an education in return. so i won't have a degree. no biggie, none of the jobs i really want require degrees.
so i need a job. anyone in gainesville, if you could help me look for one, it'd be much appreciated. preferably no copytalk, though perhaps as a last resort i could consider it.
apocalypto sucked hard. mel gibson is an idiot. it was basically combined elements of braveheart and passion of the christ, with more shitty slow-motion shots, a portrayal of mesoamerican cultures as savages who deserved to be killed by the conquistadors, and a plot that basically amounted to a guy running from some angry guys through the jungle. worse than pirates of the carribean, and i don't say that about much.
newphonegasm.
i'm reading this book "invisible cities" by italo calvino. i recommend it to everyone. it's short, but i'm really taking my sweet time with it.
i still need to do christmas shopping.
