Oh finals. I am sinking into my stress everyday. Tests, exams, finals, oral assessments, and papers. It NEVER ENDS. But as I lay here for a second trying to calm my dancing head, I imagine myself in... well let's see...1...4...7......TEN DAYS! (as I start singing the missy higgins song appropriately titled 10 days...)
I will spend days upon days watching unbearably amazing movies. So many movies to choose from. I haven't seen Chocolat in a while or Eternal Sunshine. I would love to finally see Notes on a Scandal. I'm getting I'm Not There by way of netflix tomorrow but I won't probably get around to it until sometime next week. Bummer eh? My obsession with movies is like boys and computer games. SERIOUSLY. It's gotten that bad.
But the point of this blog is that I watched an amazing movie yesterday. It wasn't anything special. Actually, it was kinda plain. It was called The Rage in Placid Lake starring musician Ben Lee. He was actually REALLY REALLY good. Probably cause I thought he was gonna suck...musicians usually do. His then girlfriend claire danes makes an appearance. It's an aussie flick. I really liked it. I recommend it. I think what appealed to me the most were the characters and their personal journeys. The funny things is, they never went anywhere. They stayed in their home town but learned so much. Funny how that works out eh? It's kind of like when you look back on your old journals and you come across this really profound entry and you just say "I wrote that?!" That's what the movie felt like. Like an old profound journal entry from your past. I think it's ability to surprise me was appealing also. Guh. Just watch it. If you have a pc, it's free on netflix instawatch.
So besides that... the rest of my break will be getting to know my tallulah martin a little better. Playing her and admiring her sound. I'll be sleeping. Very important. Listening to as much John Mayer as I can. If you haven't heard his newest live cd Where The Light Is, you're missing out. I will be enjoying the quite house. Going on bike rides for fun because going ont hem when you have to is not fun. I'll be making funny videos, smelling flowers, cooking, baking, and dancing in my room. Oh, and catching up on all my favorite Disney shows... Hannah Montana and Wizards of Waverly Place. OH! and sending in a video to the Ben Lee music video contest!
LOVE LOVE.
