| nasa is insane. i think i just experienced a brief ripple of stendhal's syndrome, but instead of beauty, it's information. how? how? how? god damn, rocket scientists aren't rocket scientists for nothing.
i'm watching this crazy documentary about nasa to gain some understanding of their history and background. but instead of making me feel more calm about going, it's got me freaked out. i had the same thing happen with a paper i was writing: the more research i did, the more i saw how much more there was to know...but this is on a much larger scale. and i'll have to live it rather than type it out on a laptop. i guess ignorance really can be bliss sometimes.
speaking of that paper, i'm still writing it. it could have been done weeks ago, but i just can't get myself to finish it. i'm very much aware of the fact that it needs to get done, especially before i leave for houston, but it's just so hard for me to sit down and type. and keep typing. i did the hard part (the research), and the sooner i do it, the more restful my mind can be for the remainder of my winter break. but despite knowing this, here i am on this deserted fossilizing xanga, writing this entry-- or procrastinating. here's a list of things i did 'accomplish' instead of writing my paper:
-watched movies. several of them. even ju-on. and i hate, hate, HATE scary movies.
-learned to drive halfway to philadelphia. i suck at driving.
-watched dramas. japanese ones. like 3 of them. from beginning to end. because:
1. lauren's got me hooked.
2. i'm trying to learn japanese.
3. i'm trying to convince myself that reasons 1 and 2 are valid enough to distract me from writing my paper.
-teach myself guitar. i now know what those little letters above words in a praise song mean. given learning guitar isn't that difficult, but i learned to play a freaking instrument before writing another paragraph of my paper.
so now i should go and finish that damn paper. like really finish. finish it so i can f7 it to make the little green and red squigglies disappear forever and save it for the last time. lab reports and stuff?? blah, eff that-- sometimes i'm really glad i go to an art school.

| is it just me, or does it seem like james mcavoy is suddenly everywhere? since when did mr. tumnus become such a leading man?
him and anne hathaway in 'becoming jane'
him and keira knightley in 'atonement'
him and angelina jolie in 'wanted'
i love keira knightley, i liked anne hathaway in 'the devil wears prada' and angelina jolie is just hot. but james mcavoy? he'll always be mr. tumnus to me. like how shia lebeouf will always be louis from even stevens and michelle trachtenburg will always be harriet the spy.

| risd prof qutoeswhen i feel a bit low from class, sometimes i like to read the prof quotes on the daily jolt. they make me happy knowing that my prof. isn't the only crazy one. we can all be crazy together under the risd umbrella. it's totally okay. sometimes it's like...a waltzing mouse leading a bunch of other waltzing mice. it's just crazy. if you don't think it's crazy, i guess it's one of those "you had to be there" kind of things.
