My gift is my--CRIKEY!
...well, damn it all, I hit the back arrow instead of whatever I mean to hit and deleted the whole entry. That's frustrating.
Short version, then, because I'm now lazy! Australia! Spent the whole movie quoting Moulin Rouge and a second thinking Faromir was The Duke. He had a mustache, in my defense. I liked the movie... but liked quoting Moulin Rouge even more so. Austrailia wasn't as good as I'd hoped. I much preferred Cold Mountain, as other Nicole Kidman romance movies. And I much preferred Simply Ballroom as a Baz Luhrman movie.
Rest of the week in review! Monday, nothing! Tuesday, movie editing! YES I CAN EDIT MY MOVIE! 8D More updates on that to follow as the summer progresses. Wednesday, work. Thursday, work and LARP! Only an hour or so of LARP, and it was at a public park this time. I did not like this, because as we were leaving, some weird little kids started asking us things like "how long did it take you to make those? how old are you? do you smoke? what college are you going to?" It was mostly one obnoxious little girl who obviously thought she was better than us because we had giant foam weapons and she did not. It was annoying.
Then, Friday was seeing Up again, this time with Laj! It was much quieter being with only one person instead of 8. XD I never knew how much a group of teenagers would laugh at "it is funny because the squirrel ends up dead!" I liked it better the second time around. The first time, I'd already seen about half the movie in previews, so half was new and exciting and half... was not. Now I'd seen the WHOLE thing before, so it wasn't "oh I saw that what else is there?" it was "ooh, I didn't notice this the first time around!" Also, Dug is still my favorite character. "Uh... POINT!"
Then we went to Borders and looked at stuff and went to the cafe and chatted. Oh, and we found a book title more hilarious than all those romance book titles I like to giggle at. Then back to her house where I got to see doujinshis!! I need to remember not to take finally having a JouMai companion for granted, 'cause the me of three months ago would not have been pried away from those things for anything since normally the only JouMai discussion I get is "the hooker lady and the redneck?" from various other friends. My friends thank you, Laj, for keeping me from ranting at them anymore. XD
All in all, a good week. Next week will be nice and busy since I start editing two days a week and have a new pairing for the contest. Yuugi/Ryou. Yay, more yaoi. /sarcasm.
