I have found a piece of music that moves like nothing else ever has in my life. It's not a song, there are many songs that move me. This is just an eight minute piece of music and nothing has ever touched me like this before. It's from the movie The Fountain. All of the music from that movie is good, but the particular piece that I am talking about ( Read more... )

I hate it when the world shatters.

For those of you that haven't seen it, you should go and rent The Fountain. It stars Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz (pretty sure I spelled that wrong). It's one of the most incredible movies about love I've ever seen. It's gloriously sad and happy, and it's very artistically pretty as well. It shows the depth of love, and reveals it's true meaning ( Read more... )

So, I took my Japanese Oral Final today. I studied and studied and studied for the damn thing and it was all for nothing! I'm hoping and praying that I managed to get a C on that thing and I'm not sure I did. Cynthia thinks I did, but I just don't know. I missed a whole lot on that damn thing. I just couldn't process her questions fast enough. I ( Read more... )

So, life has been interesting. There have been some major ups and downs since I last posted. Right now I'm waiting for Cory to get home, he's been gone all day. He's trying to get a job on an oil rig. If he gets the job he'll be gone for 2 weeks then be back for 2 weeks. The pay is great and it's a good opportunity for him. I'm trying to be ( Read more... )

Very shortly I will be leaving to go to my Great-Grandmother's or Grumpy's 89th birthday party. Every time I see her I realize more and more about myself, about the world, about her. It's scary that one person can make you see things you don't want to, and they aren't even trying. Every time I look at the old and wrinkled, although much loved, face ( Read more... )

It's Friday and on Monday school starts up again. I'm both excited and aggravated. Excited because I will be able to start conveniently seeing friends again. I'll have class everyday with Cynthia and since Rachel works in the library I'll get to see her often too! That'll be really nice. I'll be getting to learn more Japanese, which is awesome.

As the subject line implies, this post will most likely be on a number of random topics. Feel free to not read. I'm sure most of it will not be important ( Read more... )

So, I'm sitting here in the CEBA lab waiting for it to be time for me to go my british lit II class. *sigh* The one thing that truly sucks about being good at english is that I don't want to go to class, because I would be fine without going to class, but the  vast majority of english teachers are all about attendance. I'm also rather nervous about ( Read more... )
