So I need to catch up on my reading since that ended up not happening last night, but I figured I'd post a little bit before I settled into that.
Just got back from seeing Pocahontas at the SLC (it was gonna be The Little Mermaid, but they changed it to Pocahontas last minute. Didn't matter - it was a Disney movie on the big screen). Enjoyed it, of course. I remember seeing it in theaters when it first came out. And even now, I still got goosebumps watching it. They really don't make movies like that anymore (which is why I'm so excited for The Princess and the Frog! XD). I was thrown when Savages P.1 came around because the soundtrack version of the song is DEFINITELY different then the movie version. Clearly some MAJOR changes went into it btwn the OST and when it was released. The OST version is definitely more hardcore than the theatrical version. Guess they were forced to change it. And honestly, I still don't see how it can give kids the wrong impression b/c even just watching it now I KNEW both sides were wrong for judging and all that stuff. Knew it back then, too. But we won't get into the politics of Disney and their movies. LOL.
I missed my math recitation today. I didn't want to, but it was pouring down rain and I can't risk getting sicker than I already am this close to Dragon*Con. It was a quiz, but if I'm remembering correctly they drop the lowest quiz grade so it shouldn't affect me too much. Thank god next Monday is a holiday. Otherwise I'd be missing two recitations in a row - not good.
Sickness wise, things are looking up already. I had some sleepy time tea last night, along with some Echinacea and Nyquil, to help me get a good night's sleep and fight off this ickyness. Woke up feeling bleh, but after some more vitamins and drinking a lot of water, I've started to feel better. Will repeat last night's before bed regimen tonight. Hopefully that will knock out this cold or whatever for good. I did buy some Dayquil today just in case, and plan to have it with me when I go to D*C. I REFUSE to let ickyness get me down!
Alrighty, I really need to settle in to this reading and get it knocked out.
