Wheres the earth shattering kaboom?
Ahh... another day... I got an official copy of my transcript.. it was one page long- they actually fit ~3 years of work on one piece of paper! Arghh... oh well, atleast the seperate letter containing my gpa was 2 pages long (Its that good baby!)... Just fighting lazyness.. got a pizza in the oven so that will be a nice reprive from having to wake up with 10 minutes to prepare before I had to ride my bike uphill to class... the things I do for academia.. and speaking of which, I totally put the smack down on this guy in my Film Analysis class today, he was talking about an old horror film called The Innocents.. he alleged that since the main character was the daughter of a priest that she was better enabled spiritually to see the ghosts possesing and stirring evil in two children (this same gentleman had reacted fiercely to the movie L'age D'or (which had some extremely negative religious viewpoints)).. not allowing him to get away with this interpretation, I proceeded to bust out a 5 minute argument as to how religion itself actually was responsible for the main character projecting evil onto the children, and ultimately killing the 2 children (leading our instructor to say "Hey you wanna come up and teach the class?".. hehe..) just wait till we get to the David Lynch films.. whee... anyways enough rant, my pizza is almost ready and in case you were looking for some exciting news link or reason why the topic of this post is as such, well..NASA has selected the name for next Mars mission, "In homage to a classic 1968 science fiction film, NASA will name its next mission to the red planet '2001 Mars Odyssey,' the space agency announced Thursday." - Well, why is this interesting? Well in 2001: A Space Odyssey they tell the public they are going to Saturn, but they actually go to Jupiter to investigate one of the Monoliths... and everyone dies excpet for the main character- synopsis: Their mission was a failure... lets hope Nasa's isn't :)...Anyways my pizza is ready... ttyl
