sing it back to me
Today was good. I went and got my new school ID card, it was quick and painless. My picture wasn't the best, but really it doesn't matter. Then I stopped at the bookstore and got all the books I need for the semester (4 of them). It was REALLY expensive! But that's how it goes with textbooks. One came with an ebook version, I kinda wish they all did, or that I could have just gotten ebooks and a new laptop :) They are all so big and heavy.
Then I went to borders and used a 33% off coupon on "The Repossession Mamba". They made it into a movie recently with Jude Law: Repo Men. I went and got the DVD and have watched it 3 times now! haha I fell in love with the movie, true it is pretty gory at times, but I like the story besides that (and Jude Law is lovely). I think some of the reviews out there of it didn't bash it as badly as I thought they would. Yes they may not have liked the gore, but over all it's an interesting, futuristic story. It frustrates me though that there are people out there who think it is a remake of "Repo! the Genetic Opera" which I think is some kind of play, or actually a rock opera/movie musical. LAME really lame. It's made after the book. Which I just bought today and starts EXACTLY like the movie did. It has nothing to do with a rock opera. I also noticed the screen writer for the movie is the same person who wrote the book! Eric Garcia. That, I think, made for a better movie, and one that will probably stick closer to the book than any other adaptation out there. Okay I'm done ranting now :) that just really bothered me. Oh and the soundtrack was really good too!

And I love the scenes with Jude Law and Alice Braga:
She is just beautiful! and so tough in the movie:
Okay so my thumb is hopefully getting better. The past few days it has been really swollen. But I still have my fingernail. I am actually worried it may be broken, just at the tip. I don't know. There is no way to tell without an xray, and even if it is, what is a doctor going to do? It's not like it needs to be straightened out. A splint wouldn't do much either. So I'm just hoping it heals quickly on it's own. It hurts to touch things and I'm worried it's gonna get banged around at work tomorrow, so I'm gonna try and wrap it up.
Well that's it for today, good night world.
