This is a post on the lack of updates. Turns out, family coming back into town takes up a lot of time, your sister in band takes up some time, and homework the rest. So, no new writing, which is rather disappointing for me. I want to make writing daily a habit, because making it a habit improves it. And by god, writing looks to be the only way to support the lifestyle I want. I was rather empowered by Ann Aguirre's blog here, http://www.annaguirre.com/blog/. I suggest you all go and read it!
In other news, French movies seem to be damn depressing. They like that shock-depressive moment that just destroys your mood. Why? Why must you ruin my mood? It seems like most of the French videos I have recently watched do this! I just watched one of a man with a seriously shitty life, that barely seemed to improve at the end, and that only by your interpretation and hope - so what, if you are French you are pessimistic and don't see his life improving? I just don't understand how this became so popular?? I've read in a variety of places that people, aka Americans, go to movies to escape. Great Depression or little recessions? Movie attendance increases. Because people use films to escape from the negative aspects of their lives. For me, that doesn't mean I want to go watch someone else's life that happens to be worse than mine - I want to watch something happen, or something that incites the adrenaline through fear or action. I don't want to go in depressed and leave depressed!! Do French people not attend movies to escape? Do they attend to put their lives in a better perspective? What? Why? Explain!
That is all.
Thank you.

P.S. Hopefully, this weekend I can update. I'm trying a new method of homework that will hopefully help - audio files of shit I'm suppossed to be reading. This is then compounded by my ipod dieing, completely and utterly. Guess that dip in the bathtub did it in afterall...
