Mood of the Moment: Grrr...what has to come next...
Music of the Moment: Jet - Look what you've done
So....Awards day today...lovely....really...I mean, what is better than staying out until after three AM, just to get up at 6:45 the next morning to get to school before eight so that you can line up with a bunch of other people that are sitting there patting themselves on the back for their "accomplishments" over the past four years....everyone fails to realize this: When people look back at high school...do they reminisce about how lovely it was to get a perfect score on their freshman English exam...or how they were so proud that they had an ulcer by the age of 17 because they stressed so much over school...or how on awards day they got to go up to the stage like 10 times, as opposed to the one time that DeAnna girl's name was called? Let me tell you, later on down the road when them and their parents are thinking about all of the things they did in high school, thier academic accomplishments are probrobly going to be mentioned for about thirty seconds...honestly....after you go all the way through schooling, and get your career, you are really not going to care how you did in high school....yea, money for college is good...but God will provide you with what you need...so that is no big deal. I went through high school...I completed the lovely little "NC Scholars" program, and I got my little gold seal that looks nice on my diploma....but I didn't stress over it all the time, simply because I didn't need to. You get enough to get to the job you want.....you still end up at the same place in the end, whether you were on the A honor roll in high school makes no difference, you know.....the only time that anybody cares about it is right now, at this moment...but it won't make you any happier in life....you know...grrr....sorry....I just had a lot of time to think today, being as the only stimulation I had for 2 hours was the steady supply of mints from Adam Kassouf and Nick sitting one seat down and leaning over to tell me that his....uhhh....butt...was asleep, and then notifying me that it was "waking up"....hehe....watching him try to make it stop hurting was quite entertaining... :)
Well...on to happy news: Star Wars Episode III....my dear friends...I give it to you straight...A)there were a couple of times when it could have been better written in some parts(at no point in time should someone say "you're breaking my heart", and expect it to be taken seriously....though she did deliver the line beautifully...)but it was good for the most part as far as that goes, B) There were some Soundproblems that could have been caused by the actual projector and not the film....it looked in a couple of scenes to be a horribly done voice over(particularly one scene with the Chaccellor/Emperor), C) The beginning did in fact start as it was supposed to (every SW movie has started with atleast one shot of a star ship of some sort...) and that made me happy, D) There were whispers of a returning character...I shall mention no names...but the character did not return, though he was mentioned, E) If you get into movies at all...carry a tissue....you will need it, F) The traditional Star Wars 6th reel was AWESOME! , G) Obi Wan is the man...because anyone with one Light saber willing to take on someone with 4 is beyond cool, H) I'm serious about the tissues thing... I) Yoda...*sigh*....Yoda is probrobly one of the best fictional charactors in cinematic history...*sigh*....Yoda... J) everything was tied together beautifully....absolutely wonderfully I say... K) The movie in general....Loved it....It was the best of the new ones...I laughed, I cried....beautiful...of course, I am probrobly a bigger Star Wars fan than most :).....
Oh yea, did I mention that I got the best seat in the house....I love working at the theatre....hehe
Ah Well, I am done ranting...nothing really important today...maybe tomorrow.....
Much Love,
DeAnna
