that face again
so i went for the paid account and i'm all spiffed up. i now have room for 41 icons, which is ridiculous, i only got 24 so far, and that's basically me uploading every icon that i like the slightest bit. the majority of them will be made by other people. i'll probably end up deleting the ones i made - they kind of grate on me to look at now. except for the default one that i made, i heart it a lot. the funny thing is the girl in that shoot looks like kristian in 100 lb model form. but my journal is all redone and the next thing on my list is a new mood theme.
grandma's been over since yesterday. dad wants her to stay through the weekend, maybe even come down to rider with us, but i doubt that'll happen. a ride like that wouldn't suit her. and as good as my dad's intentions are, its awkward having her around. she doesn't do much, not to make her sound like a broken wind-up toy or anything. but she spent most of the day looking out the window. dad says she isn't really interested in doing a lot, she just likes being around us. but i'm the one who is home most of the time, i can't even go out if i want to anymore because vidal has the extra car, and i can't really talk to her because she doesn't speak english very well. but she helped me make dinner today which was nice.
i suppose i'm a bit melancholy right now. i am trying really hard to get my work done, but getting through burmese days is a bit trying. its a good book but not a pleasant read. and then there's still film work and reading for philosophy to do. not to mention the rest of the bhp work i have to do. *sigh* and there's the portfolio thing for bhp, i did the first thing myself, though we're supposed to work as a group, no one suggested meeting up so i figured that was simplest. this time meeting up sounds kind of impossible, i don't know if anyone has found an article either. though i can't help but feel like its not my problem, i did my part. not that i'm not perfectly willing to work as a group if we could, but since we can't i really don't want to deal with it. well, now i've just depressed myself.
but i have a lot to look forward to. i discovered that the new tool album is supposed to be released may 2nd, called 10,000 days. the track list is up on the website. so christina will hate me for a week or two before the end of the semester. and battle angel alita is being made into a movie by james cameron; john williams is rumored to be doing the score, its a big freaking deal, i'm very excited. there's no cast yet, but i'm hearing some stuff about alita being mostly or entirely cg, though i don't see how they can do that being that it is a live action movie. obviously being that she's just a torso and a head at the beginning of the movie there's definitely going to be a significant part of her that's cg, but whatever, it should be pretty awesome. i am esctatic to say the least. i'm just curious what story they're going to be doing. and how they're going to do her hair.
