I've decided that I hate all of my film peers in school. Most of them have no ability to analytically think. I am in a film studies class and the teacher (one Jeff Hamlin) has had to tell the class that he wants more than a three lines of comments. I mean, come on! Its a Film Studies class: If you didn't want to say more than "I thought it was good. Good direction, good acting, good movie..." than why the fuck did you take the class? The most obvious themes and symbols are completely lost to 90% of my peers. Today, I watched "Rashomon" by Akira Kurosawa. I fell asleep twice (because I'd only had 3 hours of sleep and it was a trite boring) and I only paid attention to the first 5 minutes of each story and I took away from it 10x what the rest of the class did. I made the teacher say, "wow, I really like that. I've never thought of it that way," three times. I need to get out of LCC or something.
I have to watch Old Boy this week. It is a Korean revenge film. Most people say it is better (gore/plot/everything) than Kill Bill. I sure hope so.
Ben and James did not jam on Tuesday and my buzz is down. Ben kept loosing James's signal and then he just gave up. It was the gay and I hope, HOPE that we are still jamming Sunday regardless.
Tomorrow I am going to get new shoes with Shannon and this weekend I am going to Sundance to buy a car. I hope it all rules. Once I have a car, my buzz will be up forever. I am going to get a job and put the sickest sound system ever in it so that when there are bass drops the back end lifts off the ground and my face disintegrates into vile miasma.
I'm really looking forward to seeing Shannon tomorrow. I haven't seen her since Sunday. She is picking me up from LCC and we are going to spend the day together. She hasn't been feeling great. She is having a lot of indigestion. I think its because she started eating meat again after being a vegetarian for 4 years. Beef will do that to you. We are going to run an experiment. She is going to abstain from consuming meat for a month and see if she feels better. I told her that she looks healthier since she started eating it again but I don't think she believes me. I think she should eat chicken even if she kills pork and beef from her diet.
Oh, and tomorrow I am going to start exercising again. I started a while ago and kind of lost interest when I hurt my lower back from bench pressing. Shannon and I are going to keep at each other so that we don't loose interest because I don't want to be fat and dead at 50. I figure if I start now, I'll make it part of my routine and I'll just do it. Oh, and the extra endurance and strength will be an added bonus. LARF LARF!
Right now, I'm watching the
Young Ones and it is bringing up my buzz. It is a british live action TV show that was filmed in 1982 and it holds up to ATHF and all of its bully boys. You should check it out if you have netflix.
Oh, and Piss Off, you Bastards!
