So, I need to get my excitement out...One of my favorite books "The Historian" by Elizabeth Kostova, is going to be made into a movie by Sony. Now I know that movies after books aren't always that great, but I always visualized it as having great potential for a movie. As long as they stay true to the book I think it would be so awesome. I suppose some people compare it to "The Davinci Code" in its ideas, but instead of the heir of Jesus, its better, its the heir of Dracula and the search for his burial place. Its just really cool, some crazy weird stuff happens throughout the whole thing. The book is kind of slow moving, due to its thorough historical descriptions, but in the end I really think the book is worth reading. I know I learned a lot and looked forward to reading it all the time. But, anyhoo, I'm excited and the movie better be good. Though, the fact that I'm excited about it probably makes it bound for failure. I'm gonna have to read that book again soon...right after the 4 new books I have sitting there waiting and the plays and textbooks I have for school...Alright for reading this summer!
So...school...right now I'm busy with annoying amounts of homework I don't care about for my Dramatic Theory class, like a paper that I can't seem to expand on which I have to add like 3 more pages to. I have 2 midterms on Thursday that I'm none too excited about. I'm designing a set for "Medea" for my Independent Study, and now I'm designing the real set for "Death of a Salesman" at Bacon as well. I also have 30 more lights to hang and circuit in the theatre, and I have to check the work of the kids in the lighting class and make sure they circuited and hung them correctly, and if they didnt I have to fix the mistakes..I need to come up with my housing deposit for next semester, and I still have to remember to withdraw from the American Art class that I still haven't gone to..Thankfully I'm done with Dunkin Donuts, or my sanity level would be drastically lower.
I don't feel like doing anything.
