Reposting this, thought it might be interesting. And you can leave comments now.
Enjoy.
I hate seeing movies with other people in the theater, except my friends. So the following is either things I hate or suggestions for making it better. You should be able to tell the difference.
1. Don't open packages of food during the movie. Open them ahead of time. You don't have to eat them right away, but it's annoying when you hear that stupid crackling sound.
2. When you do finish your snack, don't sit there and crumple the wrapping for the next hour of the movie. Just set it some where (like the seat next to you or the floor) and take care of it later.
3. Go to the bathroom before the movie starts. If you can't hold it for two hours, then sit on the end of the row so you don't have to walk in front of forty people going "excuse me, sorry, excuse me, sorry". It's obnoxious.
4. Do not ask questions about the plot. Movies generally tend ...

I really haven't been able to post a lot lately. I've been very busy with work, I've only had a few days off and I've been using them to do...stuff. As for my nights, I've actually been using them to sleep. Imagine that.
Anyway. Some really good news: Me and Sara got an on-campus apartment!!!! Yay!!!
I'm a lot more excited about it than I might seem, but I'm tired so it probably doesn't seem like I'm all hyped or anything. I am. But whatever.
Song: "Turn Smile Shift Repeat" by Phantom Planet.
So, until later.
Oh, and you may have noticed that I changed my blog template. Pretty huh?
So I was finally able to get my internet to work, so you might be hearing from me more than you (or I) thought. Anyway, nothing to say right now. Sorry. But I'll give you a few things:
Songs:
"Stupid" Sarah McLachlan
"The Reason" Hoobastank
"Float On" Modest Mouse
Movie: The Punisher
Actor: Thomas Jane and Brad Pitt
That's all for now. Lata.
Okay, I don't get it.
In comedy movies, where you need to pull off some crazy stunt to get a certain amount of money, or when you get the chance to ask for a specific amount, why do these people always ask for the exact amount?
I mean, obviously you're broke, so why settle for getting the bare minimum? If you need $50,000 for a heart transplant for your father, why would you agree to pull off a stunt and only ask for $50,000? Why wouldn't you ask for $100,000? Then you have extra.
I just don't get it.

They say you have to hear something seven times before you'll remember it.
As many of you might know, especially if you know me, I have a phobia of sharks. Now many of you are thinking "Phobia? Doesn't that just mean you're afraid of them?"
Well, the answer to that would be "no". A phobia is different from a fear. Generally, a fear only bothers you when you encounter the object, i.e. if you're afraid of spiders, you'll generally only panic when one is near you and in a place where you might come in contact with it.
A phobia, however, is much worse. The dictionary defines it as "A persistent, abnormal, and irrational fear of a specific thing or situation that compels one to avoid it, despite the awareness and reassurance that it is not dangerous."
That is why I have a phobia of sharks and not a fear. It is completely irrational. If I'm in the water and someone says "shark", I get out and won't go back in...period. If I see fish jump, I'm out. If I see dolphins jump, out. Birds dive...
I figured I should say something. Since it's been a while and all. But I don't really know what to say.
Oh, good news though. I'm not sick anymore, so I'm planning on getting completely trashed this weekend. Tomorrow night. Yay. Now I just have to find someone to drink with. But that shouldn't be hard.
Later.
My English teacher has to be one of the biggest idiots I have ever met.
First of all, he doesn't know how to speak English. He pronouces "been" as "bean". He can't even legibly write in English.
And while yes I often blame these things on him being French Canadian, I'm not blaming it on that so much as I'm excusing him and explaining his obscurities. But he's taking the stereotypes way too far. I'm surprised his own people haven't assassinated him.
He's also an ASSHOLE. For the last two papers we've had to write, his topic questions have included trick questions, questions that if you answer them, you're setting yourself up to fail.
And on the current paper, we have to do research (which I hate ) on Hamlet. HAMLET!!!!!!!!! Who the hell does research on a fictional story? On fictional characters? It's moronic.
And to go even further, he's decided that the research we have to do on Hamlet can't ...
*sigh*
Today is a sighing day. And I was doing so well too. I was getting some nice writing done. I as inspired and in the zone. But then I lost it. Hey, Friends is on. It's a rerun but since I'm not writing my novels i might as well watch it.....oh, but then I have to take my headphones off. They're so comfortable now. It's great when you can have music flooding directly into your head. Anyway. The head phones are off. Friends is on. Well, it's off now because well, it's over, but whatever. Next is Will & Grace so that should be fun. Should I get drunk tomorrow night? I haven't decided yet. A lot of it depends on what happens tomorrow. I have to go to Cohodas (the office building for NMU) and see if they'll give me an overage check. See, I have money on my account but I don't want all of it, obviously, because it's like...$1700. So I only want about $100-200. But last time I tried, they yelled at me. And it's always the same people wo...
