Currently Watching
The Story of the Weeping Camel
see related
Well now there is proof of my insanity. My tradition of crying at the most random movies which no one else cries at continues. I don't understand what it is the triggers me to get really emotional during some movies and not be affected at others. For example, Titanic did nothing to me. I normally never ever ever cry during movies. I can count the ones I have cried at on my hand. And it is time to add one more to the list. I just watched the documentary The Story of the Weeping Camel about a family in Mongolia who owns loads of camels and one of them gives birth to a baby white camel who she then rejects. There are all these images of the poor baby camel lying alone in the dirt with a sand storm blowing in his face, him trying to drink milk from the mom and the mom camel bites and snorts and runs away. The baby camel tries to follow it's mom but the mom flat out runs away and totally rejects it. I was bawling. Absolutely weeping, I guess though it could be this past week which has been a little weird for me. In any case the film is absolutely gorgeous and I do have a notorious soft spot for animals, especially baby ones, so don't think this is a sad film. Just thought I would let everyone know, I think everyone should see it.

Right so here I am again browsing around doing nothing online. Just had my first adv film video projects class and I think that it is going to be really really great. Lots of cool people and my teacher rocks. Of course I have completely put off cleaning up and organizing my room which I shall do "now" which means I probably will never do it. Meh. Sorry my life is not terribly exciting but I did make a new friend today which is neat and I like his hair. yay!

Ok so I have already gotten sucked into Myspace why not start something here as well? Of course I am positive that the only person that will be reading this will be you Rin and I talk to you everyday anyway, ah isn't the internet wonderful? So class begins tomorrow and I don't want it to but I do want it to as well which feels weird. I hope that this semester goes by quickly I am really ready to move away from the snow in chicago. I have unpacked 3 boxes so far and I have a glorious 5 more to go. I told myself this year that I would end the horrible habit of mine to overpack and well at least I am keeping a few of my new found resolutions but unfortunately not that one. I guess that no, I cannot live without my owl collection, or my vhs tapes or all of my books. For now though I shall go to bed and tomorrow is the beginning of my last semester in undergrad.
