oh, life.
1. Added this to the Bollywood post:
In case I wasn't clear on this: Bollywood is not the only face of Indian cinema. There's pararrel cinema, art cinema, regional commercial cinema (Telugu, Tamil, Malayam, Kannada, Gujarati, Punjabi, Bengal..), regional art cinema.. There is A LOT of different types of films out there. I myself know a bit about Hindi art cinema & have seen three Tamil films. Generally I'd say you can find more of an realistic approach in South-Indian films - they have masala qualities, but also deal with "real issues". Oh, and there's more violence in them.
2. Man, it's so hard to get anything done when one is feverish & also when the house is filled with people. Tomorrow: serious studying begins. I swear.
3. Finally checked out my German listening comprehension score & it's a 62/90. I think. Anyway, pretty good considering I suck.
4. Icon, because I watched The OC today and these two were cute. Also, Ryan had a mullet. WTF.
5. Steve Guttenberg facts > Chuck Norris facts.
