| 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. | | |
| Mardi Gras was amazingly perfect but now I have the flu and I want to die.

| OK OK OK Tomorrow I am flying away to New Orleans where I shall
be staying with my friend Aaron in his apartment there. He goes to
Tulane. I am finally going to Mardi Gras!!! Mardi Gras. Good god. I
can't believe it. And Sean Astin and ELIJAH WOOD will be on floats in
the parade at 6:30 on Sunday night to boot. I am not flying back until
Monday and I am going to party like I never have before. It hasn't even
sunk in that I will be seeing them there. I am taking my video camera
and I am getting the best seat ever! This shall go down in Emily
History. It is almost legendary already, in my world anyway. So now I
should be asleep but I can't I mean does anyone really think that I
could sleep now? no I can't. yyyyyyyyyyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. I can't
wait, and it will be fabulous to see aaron too. When I get back
everyone will have to hear about it over and over again. I just can't
help it I am SO excited. Plus my friend Beth ( she is going too) and I
are going to go check out some Voodoo stuff while we are there. I am so
interested in that kind of stuff . HUZZAH! Ok self prepare for the best
weekend EVA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

| 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.
