TODAY I discovered the names of two movies that I had seen but could never remember the titles of! EXCITING. Especially because whenever I described them to people I would get looks like I was crazy. But no, world, Magic Island and Unico in the Island of Magic totally existed and probably fucked up my worldviews considerably. But they exist, and that's what matters in the end.

...I like how the titles are pretty much the same.

Also going to Canada this weekend, which is almost as awesome (lies it is actually way more exciting.)

The state of Washington is the worst state to drive in. THE WORST.

--okay California is the most awful, but. COME ON, WASHINGTON. Who are all these people and where are they going at 3:30 and why is the exit ramp from the 1-5 closed.

Today some random guy, chilling out in front of the library, asked me if I would like to go out and catch him some snakes. He said he would pay me $100 per snake! WHERE WAS THIS JOB OFFER IN MAY? I don't care if the dude was crazy, that is some quality money right there.

Also found a whole bunch of Mucha prints and a Kaws Kimpsons picture for PENNIES at a garage sale. Mine is gonna be the classiest dorm room.

Today I got the best email from my RCC.

SUBJECT: HELLO LADIES

How are you? Fantastic! Look at your calendar, now back to this message, now back to it, now back to this. Sadly, the date is still July 31st, but don't be sad just because school's starting in a month.

Look down, back up, where are you? You're in your home, with all the stuff your suite could have. What's in your hand? Back at me, I might have one! It's that thing that two of us could both bring this year, thereby taking up more space in our cars all for no reason! Look again-- that thing is now extra room in your suitcase, because we coordinated! Anything is possible when future suitemates coordinate on important items that will be in shared spaces.

I'm on a horse.

BAD THING: sometimes dates are awkward and awful and oh my god the movie is playing turn off your fucking phone you prick

GOOD THING: Even a serial texting douche couldn't ruin Inception.

I.

Someone tell me where the Arthur/everyone fic is hiding.

I am slightly ashamed to be so ridiculously excited for Sucker Punch, but it hits basically every button I have:

-- Badass ladies
-- Who are crazy
-- Jon Hamm (it's in the 50's so he'll have to wear the suits! swoon)
-- Ninjarobotdragonsamurai
-- Giant Mecha

There is no part of this that is not awesome. So four for you, Zack Snyder, and I look forward to all the rampant girlslash that will result.

I was going to write a big long rant about how my housemate is the most passive aggressive and selfish person ever, but then I watched the new Community and decided to talk about why I love this show so much instead.

So many things to do! Tomorrow I have cleaning and at least one app to do before ringing in the new year with an apocalyptic movie marathon. Mad Max will see me into 2010, oh yeah.

Instead of doing any of that, though, or one of those memes about the past year, I decided to be shallow and do a picspam of my 9 favorite tv shows, movies, and books that I discovered and/or really, seriously enjoyed this past year. This was fun! And it made me realize that along with living my life according to the Moscow Rules, I should also resolve to make more graphics in 2010.

This morning, while a little bit high on cough medication, I think I wrote down "I want to got to London because of the opportunities to study history that I would have and the sheer number of people with awesome accents" on my study abroad application.

...maybe I will get points for honesty!

Oh my god I can't stop watching Bollywood movies.

Like! A week ago my housemate was like "hey watch this clip of this dude dancing on a train" and now I'm marathoning SRK movies. Om Shanti Om was great even if I did laugh at the srs death scene. It's an addiction.

Today I punched a dude in the face for making broad and offensive generalizations about conservatives.

It felt really awesome.

What I like about my family's big dinners is no matter what time of year or how many times we've discussed the topic, we can all put aside our differences and agree on how much we all hate bicyclists.

Today I'm going to admit something!

I really, really hate most every movie Judd Apatow has ever made. The 40 Year Old Virgin, Superbad, Knocked Up and their ilk were all incredibly stupid and make me irrationally angry! And if people I know enjoy those movies I judge them harshly. The fact that Time magazine called Apatow the "king of comedy" in Hollywood makes me lose a little more faith in humanity and also realize Time is a rag zine, but I knew that already.

Sean Bean has been cast as Ned Stark in HBO's A Song of Ice and Fire miniseries

I am so excited. Sean Bean is perfect and I can't wait to see who they cast as Dany and Sansa.

Blah blah depression blah blah stupid family blah blah stupid politics blah.

Now for books! ( Read in Summer 2009 so far )
