Busy Bee...
...That's been me.
Yes, I haven't updated for nearly two weeks now but I've been busy sorting out uni stuff, going to kendo, sorting out the house, getting my NUS card, going to RPG groups and other such things that I'm amazed I'm actually still alive.
Though last night I most certainly wasn't. Way too tired but nevermind.
Still I'm back at uni, yipeee! Well actually I've been in for my welcome back thing and forgot the bit of homework that I was meant to take with me *hits on head* but I've got that done and it'll be handed in on Monday which will be a good thing. I'm so going to be a script writer when I finally garduate. Random comment - that probably won't matter much to anyone but me - but I've set my goal for once I get out of uni (after my I finish all the studying bit) which is to get to be an anime dub writer with any of the companies (though working for ADV would be tres cool). I know that they're hollywood but at the moment I'm not that impressed with them and considering the fact that most of my stuff is a little on the old fashioned logical side then I would have to fight like hell. At least anime is not as competative - it still will be but just not as bad. Anyway I know I'm in on Tuesday mornings for theory and thursday afternoons for media marketing (which means I'm going to be late for work on that front but they know so I can't be blamed) so all good.
Kendo has been pretty fun over the last few weeks. Literally had two sessions where it was just me and Mark for the Kque grades and then Denny, Barry, Jane and Mick and Bo for the Dan grades. Great fun and a hell of a lot fo hard work but I likes having that. This friday should be interesting as we've got the newbies starting as Sports Fair went quite well and hopefully we'll get a lot more girls turning up and staying which will be a cool thing. Barry and Denny did the demo we had cause it would be quicker and easier and Bills back! It was so cool cause I was standing talking to Barry and this guy walks up next to me and goes hi, I say hi back turn to finish my convo with Barry and then click to the fact that it's Bill and I hugged him like mad. We didn't know he was coming back at all which made things even better and he's going to be there on Friday which is going to be a cool thing.
In other stuff I finally got to see Apoplypse Now which is a very well done film and deserves it's title of one of the films you must see before you die but there are a couple of ones which are a bit better in my opinion but I can't really fault it. Actually for the shocking bit I prefer Full Metal Jacket first half with the Boot Camp bit in the head (Mamo-chan will know what I'm talking about) cause that bit freaks me out till this day. Oh and Mamo I've finally seen the Godfather Trillogy and the first ones brilliant, the second one is fantastic beyond belief and the final one I couldn't even finish watching cause I was that board with it. Also attempted to watch Red Dragon, which was the modern re-make of Manhunter, and is sucks to hell! They use the same locations and somehow manage to drag out the story longer than is actually needed, go into all this stuff that was only mentioned briefly in passing in Manhunter and generally fart-arse around so by the time you get there is doesn't make sense at all. If you want to see the prequal story to Silence of the Lambs, watch Manhunter cause it's a really good thriller film and even though Hopkins isn't in it the guy who plays Hannible does a very good job. (I think Hopkins borrowed part of his performance from him a bit cause it's very good). Also re-watched Hellboy, which is still a mega cool film, part of Battle Royal but it was the first release version that was edited and the subbing was horrible so I stopped watching that, and saw The Hole which is amazing. It's a small budget British horror, with a rather young Kira Knightly in, but it's so good. Hardly anything gory in it - excluding a loo - but you will not be able to work what's going on in that film and it's just fantastic. Proper old fashioned creeps ville with a story that resolves itself but doesn't at the same time. I'm going to get it just to re-watch it and try and work it out cause I didn't manage it, not even my Dad did.
Finally seen a trailer for Ghost Rider as well and that looks very cool, Death's on a Chopper with flames! So that's one for next year which I think will be very cool and Nicholas Cage is a good actor anyway too.
Not long till the movie I did the documentary for is out, so I'm waiting to here about that cause it should be very interesting and I get the DVD out of it as well which is cool. Chibi-chan liked the doc when she saw it, though I wish I had got a bit more editing time with it. But que serre serra.
Anyway, that's my update done and I'm going to sort other stuff out now.
