I just finished watching The Prestige. Pretty wild movie, that. It wasn't really my cup of tea, though I can't quite pinpoint why. It was interesting, but some of the plot felt like it dragged on, and it just seemed a little ridiculous at points. The good thing was that they didn't really leave any plot holes. Still, parts of it just felt like it was over the top. Ah well. Interesting to watch regardless.
So I really should be doing stuff. I've got a to-do list like a mile long for over spring break.
Shakespeare class: rough draft of research paper. This means going through a few books, watching four movies, and starting to develop coherent ideas. Gulp.
Comm class: get some info together on the 1950s, decide what's important enough to incorporate into the group speech.
Exposition: travel/nature essay. Need to develop an idea and write the bloody thing. Also catch up on the like … eleven to thirteen (I'd have to check for the exact number) journal entries I should've been doing the entire semester. Oops.
Harry Potter: start coming up with ideas for the presentation, and work on the accompanying paper. (Are we seeing a trend here?)
Fiction: start the new short story that's due at the end of the semester. Catch up on journals, though I'm not as far behind as I am in Exposition.
Subterranea: building, helpfiles, crafts, more documentation.
Shadows of Isildur: I should actually be relieved that I'm so dependent on someone else and can't rp as much as I'd like.
Watch Firefly because Amanda lent it to me and I really liked what I saw – the first episode was nifty.
Bang my head repeatedly against the wall and get a fucking life.
Words of the Day:
Pablum: something (as writing or speech) that is trite, insipid, or simplistic.
Insensate: lacking sensation or awareness; inanimate; lacking human feeling; cruel; lacking sense; stupid. (wow, that has a lot of different meanings)
Recondite: difficult to understand; concerned with obscure subject matter.
