sooo yesterday i watched 16 episodes of "lost." my older sister tried the entire break to make me watch it, but after watching pieces of a couple of episodes with janet last semester, i wasn't too excited to start it, so she forced me to watch some of it on her birthday, and i was instantly hooked. then i just decided to finish off the season yesterday. i can't wait until she buys season 2 so i can watch that too. she has gotten me hooked on so many shows. i swear, every break it's something new, but i don't mind. not like i'm doing anything else with my time.
today i went with her to go see underworld evolution. definitely a movie that i would recommend. it bothered me throughout the movie that the vampires carried flashlights though. i mean, you're creatures of the night, and you can't see in the dark? whatever. it was kinda weird when we first got to the theater though because there were droves and droves of kids there, but i just figured they were there to see hoodwinked. little did i know that half of them would end up in the theater with us. i thought that most of them were too little to watch that sort of movie to start with (quite a few seemed around 6 and 7 years old), but then i thought, i watched a lot of movies i know i shouldn't have watched at that age, so who am i to judge? and the parents seemed okay with everything too, until a love scene came on. my sister said she even heard one mom ask "what is the rating on this movie?" when the scene happened. and there was a definite change in the atmosphere during that scene. as if all the parents decided to hold their breath at the exact same time. i almost laughed because i was thinking, you've let your children watch one guy's head explode and werewolves literally rip people to pieces with blood gushing everywhere, and now you want to know the rating of the movie. are you fucking kidding me? what the hell did you think the movie was going to be like? why is it that people in this country are more than willing to let their children be exposed to violence but the second sex becomes involved it's too much for them? even my own mother was like that when i was younger, and it just doesn't make any sense. are the parents consciously trying to send a message of make war not love, because the media sure as hell isn't? every time i turn on the dagnabbit television i see half-naked women gyrating all over the damn place. my first question is, where the hell are all the half-naked men? my next question is, what the hell is wrong with this country? but again i say whatever.
i only wrote all that because i'm bored, and have little else to do with my time. i guess i could read my book, but i made a rule a long time ago not to read the stephen king at night. the series i'm reading hasn't been scary so far, but who knows what the next page will bring. and i have nothing else to complain about. for now. so i guess i need to find something else to do.
