Movies and things

[themadpoker]

AGH, I have been watching Shrek for three hours. X_x I'm doing it for a school assignment and my attention span is so very SHORT for these things so I keep pausing and doing something else. And this is still relative progress for me since I've been trying to make myself watch it since Monday. WHY SO ALLERGIC TO SCHOOL SELF?

Mostly I am trying to encourage myself with the idea that once I am done Shrek I am free to watch Chocolate (tiny autistic Thai girl beating up various people! VERY INSPIRING =D). Before that I was encouraging myself with the thought of The Vampire Diaries but CTV cancelled it in favour of airing the Olympics. :/ Look I like the Olympics but I don't like them that much. Just give me my witches and vampire brothers and surprise!descendants of vampire girls, okay? Especially when all you're airing is HOCKEY; the only thing I would consider a remotely acceptable trade is figure skating. I thought we already discussed this Canada.

GAH. Okay fine, I will go watch more of Shrek and Princess Fiona now. And try to summon up DEEP~ thoughts about its portrayal of cultural and romantic quests and gender roles and blah blah blah academic stuff.

YOUR ACADEMIC PURSUITS INVOLVES HAVING TO WATCH SHREK? I DO NOT SEE WHY THIS IS SO TERRIBLE UP TO THE SECOND FILM. AFTER WHICH, I UNDERSTAND.

I THINK YOU AND I HAVE A CAPS LOCK PROBLEM.

BUT GOOD LUCK. :D ILY, BBDOLL. <3

LEMME FIX THAT STATEMENT FOR YOU: YOU AND I HAVE A CAPS LOCK PROBLEM FLAVORED AWESOME

ILY TOO, THANKS FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT. AND NOW I AM DONE SO MAYBE I FELT YOUR LUCK ~PSYCHICALLY~.

I THINK I AM AGREEING WITH THIS CAPS LOCK FLAVOURED AWESOME BUSINESS. VERY MUCH SO.

ALSO, ARE YOU FEELING LESS REVENGE-LIKE TOWARD SHREK NOW SO AS NOT TO SABOTAGE YOURSELF IN YOUR ANALYSIS OF THE FILMS? I DO HOPE SO. <3

WE DO HAVE THAT PSYCHIC THING GOING ON. WE DO. JUST SAYIN'.

I know you're probably bored out of your mind, but I admit that I'm totally jealous that you get to watch Shrek for homework. Of course, if I had to analyze it to death I'd probably hate it, but from when I'm standing atm it seems pretty awesome. LOL.

Good luck with your "DEEP~ thoughts" concerning an ogre and a talking donkey. :-P

And don't worry, the Olympics will be over soon enough. *comforts* (I'm also feeling the sting with no Office. :-()

Haha yeah, compared to other things it does not seem to deserve too much complaining. I'm holding off on proper analysis until tomorrow since I'm pretty sure I would be overly critical now just for revenge at having to watch it (you can literally see this pattern in school assignments I didn't want to do. (What's that history teacher, you want an essay about Kennedy and the Cuban missile crisis by TOMORROW? Fine, but just so you know I am basically going to argue that he was really really stupid and we should thank God/the forces of luck in the universe we all survived). And normally, I'm inclined to like Kennedy! ^^)

LOL. I love Kennedy, but he kind of failed at foreign policy. XD

OMG. I KNOW! VAMPIRE DIARIES WAS CANCELED BECAUSE OF HOCKEY!! I was pretty upset when i checked CTV's website. >.< ughh, they also took every show off and replaced it with the Olympics. Not that I'm against it or anything, but I wish that they would just let the night shows run. I don't have cable so I'm not able to watch the 'A' channel. Thus, I'm unable to watch my awesome shows, 'vampire diaries', 'lost', 'fringe', 'gossip girl' and etc.

-pats- Don't worry. I totally understand how you're feeling right now.
