So that Black Eyed Peas song ‘Meet Me Halfway’ is so good. I don’t know what it is about it, but I can listen to that song over and over in a loop and never get sick of it.
Anyways, so I’m done school and now I need to deal with the aftermath. So we’ll see how that goes. In a few days I’m going to move out to a different city for my co-op. I’m doing website work for the next 4 months :o The place where I’m staying is supposed to have internetz but I think it’s sort of crappy. So I’ll probably update less around here.
On another note I saw Avatar yesterday. Unfortunately it was not in 3D since it sold out and I happened to fall asleep about an hour before I was supposed to go to the movies… I hadn’t slept at all that night! So it’s justifiable!
It was a very good movie, sure the plot is recycled and it was, as a lot of people are saying like a mix of all previous James Cameron movies. But it was still very good! Just because a plot is recycled does not mean it’s not good or enjoyable. I really want to go back and watch it in 3d though, I feel like I missed out on a big part of the experience without 3d.
The one thing that stuck out the most to me was how much the Na’vi were meant out to be the good guys. When it comes to stories like this we’re always exposed to one side so we can root for them. And that got me thinking of a good story idea. But I won’t tell you.
It’s really interesting though and it plays on the whole ‘underdog’ concept and how our position of a conflict is mainly based on which side we are exposed to more and what we are told about the opposing side.
Anyways, off to read. Ciao~

You seem to like a lot of those songs that get stuck in one’s head, don’t you?

ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I love that song! I heard it once and I can’t get enough of it now. The music video is pretty cool too.
I swear we’re related…
Oh yeah, I also saw The Di Vinci Code and the actress who plays Sophie Neveu looks just like you…

Yeah, Avatar was spectacular in 3d. If you get a chance, go see it again. I don’t feel the plot was recycled though. I thought it was really original actual. And yeah, it game me a good story idea too. I might go back to writing fantasy because I’m about 75% through Nightingale. Once I finish that, I’m going to start up another story and then I’m working on a mythical/modern story as well. I call it my “Bella should have picked Jacob” story because there’s a love triangle of sorts and the girl actually picks the guy who’s better for her (gasp).
In other news, I’ve been working on a digital painting (I’ve attacked my site with it…) and I’ve been watching The Office a lot. Good holiday.
Merry (belated) Christmas by the way.
