movie and school stuff
I just watched Reign Over Me, which made me cryyyy. It's so sad! I really liked it, though. I thought the whole feel of it really suited the story. And for ONCE, I liked Adam Sandler. LOL!! I think this is the first movie I've actually liked him in. And I did like him in this. I just wanted to snuggle him and make him feel better. ..Like Liv Tyler! I actually didn't know she was in this before I watched it, lol! I liked her too. And Don Cheadle, but I always like him. :P
Before we started the movie, though, my mom was looking up my textbooks for next quarter, and she said, "you almost have an Associate of Arts and Sciences degree!!" so I go over to the computer and look, and after winter quarter, I only need 3 more classes and I'd have the degree. Completely on accident! When I first started, we looked at the required classes and I pretty much said, "well that's shit, I'm not taking those!" so I didn't bother. But now I just need 2 more social sciences and 1 more natural science (this is after physics and fiction-writing). So then we re-looked at the classes and found multitudes of ones that I actually want to take. So I might get my AA degree by spring. wtf?! LOL, I'm very surprised. BUT, I don't know if I'll actually do that or not, because it calls into question how I'm going to 4-year college; right now, I'd go as a freshman and just (hopefully) get exempt out of some of the basic classes. but if I have the degree, I'd go in as a transfer student, and I don't know yet if that would be a good thing or not. but yeah, I thought that was kind of weird; I wasn't trying for the degree, and here I am, getting it by accident! strange. and kind of awesome. :P we never did get around to ordering my textbooks, though. LOL
Tomorrow, it looks like I'm going bowling. hm. whatever. maybe I can finagle some of the family to see Sweeney Todd after. *giggles* and then, I think, we're all going to a Chinese place near our house. Should be interesting. Hopefully fun as well.
I'm more than halfway through the Golden Compass, by the way, and totally loving it. I read several chapters today, but then I fell asleep until the dog we were babysitting jumped on me and slobbered all over my face. LOL so now I'll go get in bed and listen to more LotR music and read a bit more. yay! :D
ps: this is a pic of me and my new camera from Christmas day, which my sister took with her new camera. :D beware, it's kinda big.
