Detached Distraction

Current Tunes: Mastodon - Oblivion

Just two more days of class and another quarter in the books. I need this week to be over, soon. I want to move on to the summer. I want to move onto making my thesis come alive. I want to dive into the internship. Oh, data entry. Never thought I’d be excited about data entry, but I am.

I’m so ready to move on that I’ve been procrastinating my final assignment for class to the absolute extreme. I don’t give a flip about it; I just want this quarter to go ahead and get out of my life. It’s time to move on. It’s not that much work though; I just need to do it, get the grade, and let it go from there. Just finish out, not much farther to go now.

There are other peripherals that are competing for my interests. Namely, Isis on Thursday, graduation for J&A on Saturday, also Testament on Saturday. Couple of weeks and there’ll be a big LAN party. That’s a big event. Don’t even know if I’ll really be gaming that weekend, but it’ll still serve as a fantastic party, hang out with great friends.

I need to stop making very stupid decisions. That should be a priority. Anyone else have this problem? Anyone other there that makes the correct decision 100% of the time? If so I really need to talk to you.

You know, I thought this would be a good summer for movies but right now I’m really underwhelmed. I can count movies this summer I have interest in on one hand: "Transformers 2," "G.I. Joe," "Inglorious Basterds," "Public Enemies," "District 9," & "Moon." OK, well that’s actually six films, so just barely two hands. I kinda want to take "G.I. Joe" off the list actually; with all the evidence present currently, it will probably be horrendous. But still, ninja fights & the possibility of Cobra Commander side-gags cannot be dismissed.

American film making is not holding my interest right now, I'm sorry to say. Just general popular film making in general isn't holding my interest. Last year's "blockbusters" really only had two homeruns with me: "Quantum of Solace" and "The Dark Knight," and "QoS" I only saw on dvd, in the past couple of months. I'm going to start consistently investing my movie-ticket-money in films @ the art house, I hope. There's so much more potential, so much more value in the films I see at places like that.

Anyway, know what time it is? It's time to be responsible.
