I'm back! :P
Aah!
The Internet. That's all I've got to say.
No but really, I banned myself from internet, 'cause it tends to suck all my time. And I really had to study more to pass Uni. Did my general linguistics test again Thursday, hopefully will pass this time.
Anyways, now I can catch up all the things I've missed.
Apparently LJ allows you to edit your comments? Works only for paid customers, so not gonna help me much. *rant*
Just watched Pan's Labyrinth, and I really liked it. It's different from anything I've seen for awhile. It has this Alice-in-Wonderland-meets-horror feel. Actually, I haven't seen that many movies since summer, somehow I got bored with seeing the same things being used all the time. Oh, and another good film I saw was Perfume. It's cruel and has this orgy scene that certainly "sticks out" but at the same time just gorgeous to watch. Maybe it's because of the approaching winter and the constant darkness that I find myself wanting to curl up on the couch and listen to music or watch movies. I love fall and all the time before New Year, best time of the year.
On a sadder note, I don't know how much of this has been on the press in different countries during the past few days but there was a school shooting in Finland this week, which ended in eight people losing their lives and the shooter killing himself. He had posted videos to Youtube where he practices shooting and on other places on the internet he had told what he will do. Here's some information about it in English, if someone wants to know more: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/7085329.stm
It makes me very sad and angry at the same time. I don't know what could cause you to reach that point where you could take some body's life. I've been thinking about this a lot and I know that I'll probably never understand. If anything, it makes me value my own life more and demand that people should have better opportunities at getting help.
I wish we could pay more attention to the people around as, no matter what they do or look like, and especially what their sexual orientation is like.
