"If I were a psychopath I'd probably be like the Joker." ~ Me =D
I'm bored. Time for an update. =D
Finally watched Batman Begins and Dark Knight. I enjoyed both of them. Batman is one of my favorites. Actually... As far as comic superheroes go he's my only favorite. I also like the X-men and I'm starting to like Iron Man. However, Batman holds a special place in my heart. Batman: The Animated Series was the first superhero series I watched.
... The Joker amuses me in Dark Knight. =D I really like Heath Ledger's portrayal of that character. As a psych major he really got the psychopath thing right. It's certainly different.
I also finally saw Silent Hill. I like it. I want to see more horror films especially those that are psychological thrillers.
Now I'm watching Die Hard. XD More action. w00t.
Things are pretty good. I've been sick recently, but I'm better. I'm mostly just keeping calm and working on my academics and art projects. I cut out 100 bookmarks and I've ordered a laminating machine, so I'll be workin' on those. Once I get the right wire I'll start on the figures. I'll have to start those soon. I'm gonna make 'em small, so I can get them done quickly and they'll be easier. I also have to paint the rest of the figurines and make the coasters and stuff. I finally have a craft pasta machine, so I can make slabs. It'll make things easier.
Apparently, there's a project in my advanced Japanese class. Some brochure thing. *sigh* I wish he'd save it for April. *shrug* Oh well. Luckily, we're supposed to do it in groups, so I won't be doing the project alone. I just gotta scrape through this semester with an overall GPA above 2.0. I'm not very motivated, but I do want to avoid getting kicked out. Get an A in Chorus, another B in Japanese, I think I can pull off an A in Psychophysiology if I work hard enough, I can probably get a B in Positive Psychology (maybe an A if I work harder), and I'm hoping to get an A or B in economics (I don't entirely have to try apparently). All I have to do is avoid getting any Ds or Fs and I'm clear. It's quite simple.
I guess you could say mentally I'm in limbo. I care, yet at the same time I don't give a damn about school. --;; I mostly just want to finish up and leave. One more year after this. I'm tired of going back and forth and I'm tired of dealing with classes. They're fun and all, but I'm tired of grades. I really want to just graduate, go home, and establish a more stable lifestyle. *sigh* I can't keep myself stable up here because I don't feel compelled to have a real social life. Mostly 'cause things are going to change within a year. Meh.
I gots my birthday present from my folks. It's a digital camera. =D It's fun. Now I have a camera to take to cons and take pics of my projects. w00t.
Meh. Not much else to report. I gotta get back to work on my bookmarks. I still have pottery, scarves, and some figurines. Plus I can make bookmarks at the con. I shouldn't stress myself out too much. There are really only three things that HAVE to be done by the convention and I could probably get all three of 'em done within a week... maybe less.
Okays. Time to get to work.
Catch ya' on the flipside, mates.
