To Venus And Back

Journal Entry: Thu Nov 19, 2009, 8:12 PM
Still very excited about the release of Kris Allen's new album! Alas, I cannot get it myself, even if I were to save up the money. It is time for Christmas shopping, after all. :hmm:
Pretty busy week. Theology/Arts is the main contributor to my hectic schedule. I have an assignment pertaining to some creative writing that I must get done tonight--13+ poems with some religious value! I can't even write 5. But I have prepared a list of 13 prompts that I can stick to, and I can make adjustments if need be. :work:
On top of that, I also have a 1-2 page essay to write about religious themes in the movie "The Spitfire Grill". Yes, it was a good movie, but I really don't think I can write a paper for something like that. Although, 1-2 pages sounds pretty freaking easy, if you ask me. I once wrote 5-6 pages worth of one chapter of one of my stories! But, I digress.
Not so many huge projects other than that, so once those are done with, I can relax a little bit before I have to start prepping for finals.
Ah, yes, it's that time again. Terribly depressing that it's already the end of the semester! (I don't want to say goodbye to my business classes! :cry:)

Other news, I am putting together a list of movies that I haven't watched in a while, and I'm going to watch them all! I recently cleaned out my DVD shelf and returned them to the source of all DVDs (aka my living room), and then took out like 3 or 4 to watch--"Cloverfield", "The Lake House", "Once", and "The Last Samurai". Boston Legal's gonne be on hold for a while, unless I can convince the rest of the fam to watch with me. (We love the show. Shame it got cancelled...)

Music-wise, I'm also getting back into some musicians that I haven't listened to in a while. Like Tori Amos, who actually just came out with a holiday album last week! I fell back in love with her album, "To Venus And Back" so I've been listening to it nonstop! Another singer I started listening to again, Johnny Cash! I managed to get my dad's computer to work so that I could burn his "At Folsom Prison" album onto a CD. And I confiscated my dad's "The Legend" box set of all Johnny's hits.

All in all, lovely time for me. :aww:
That's about it for now--have a kick-awesome weekend!
Cheerios!

All because of you, I believe in angels. Not the kind with wings, no, not the kind with halos. The kind that bring you home when home becomes a strange place.

It's not about changing the world, but doing our best to leave the world as it is; respecting the will of others, and believing in your own.
