in my persual of the perfect procrastination method, i too i have stumbled upon youtube covers. they're pretty funny, but a lot of them are really good and make me feel small for not being able to sing that good. very discouraging. it doesn't make the procrastination enjoyable at all.

the guy is doing the howling noises at the end of "the scientist." it's hilarious that he can do it with a straight face.

i'm starting to resent this senior year workload. i mean, aren't we supposed to stop working? isn't that the deal? we're being cheated by the establishment. this requires immediate revolt. which would require action. which i'm set firmly against. oh well. guess i'll have to suck it up. :P

my mom is gone for a week at a conference in the states. yay!!! :D:D:D the house is...relaxed...quiet...joyful...peaceful. thank goodness. it was sucking away my soul. i know it's bad, but it's true! those two don't really cancel out, do they? rats. but still. i needed a break. we all did. do. present tense.

i have to call mr. tessen tomorrow to let me into the school so i can get my constitutional law stuff so i can write the paper the day before it is due, even though it was assigned over a month ago. fantastically typical.

i've been doing my own sort of oscar-catchup. i just can't seem to master the art of downloading movies or tv shows from online, though, so i can only watch what i can rent. i saw "the constant gardener" (rachel weisz, best supporting actress, 2005) and "the queen" (helen mirren, best actress, 2006), both of which were really good. "the constant gardener" wasn't as good as the book, and at the end i felt kind of cheated because everything got wrapped up really quickly and neatly. it was more complicated in the book. "the queen" was fantastic, though. it had the potential to be an incredibly, horribly boring experience, but it was actually really good. i was surprised. i guess helen mirren deserved the oscar after all. i was a little inscensed about that last year. i thought keira knightly should've gotten it. she was really good in "pride and prejudice."

i'm out of writing drive. more will come later, when more energy is present. :D
