time of entry: 5:16 pm updates: this school: first day of the semester was today. I'm taking Art History (involves history and paper writing- it's with a teacher that I didn't necessarily like last semester, but she's better than some of my teachers this year), Survey of American Art (with my fave teacher, Mr. Billingsley- and it involves writing a big paper, but I'll learn more about American Art, since I wasn't too interested in it before), Expository Writing (surprise...paper writing, and there are like 9 people in my class), Art Appreciation (which doesn't look as fun as I thought, the teacher is that nervous laugh type, and I don't think I'll learn much new stuff, although Christy is in my class, so that's cool), Then there is Psychology (only one paper to write, but I don't really like the teacher, she's old and has strict rules, and the classroom is set up ridiculously). So I signed up for a lot of paper writing. Hopefully that means at the end of the semester I'll be a paper writing pro. Ugh, this is just gonna be a lot of work. Luckily, some of it will be interesting, like the Art stuff. I don't know anything about Psychology, so that'll be new. I wanted more guy teachers I get along better with them since they accept personal favors for grades. Ha. No, I just like them better, well the younger ones anyways. Stupid chick teachers. Plus these classes all want you to buy a book that you will hardly read, so that's 5 pretty big books I'm gonna have to lug around all day. I wish they had lockers. I'm gonna buy the Psych and English books, and then see if I REALLY have to buy the Art books. Maybe I'll get one art book...and I've started to fill you in on stupid subjects so I'll shut up. and: I owe alot of people phone calls, like Jennica, and Anna and Dad. Jennica and Anna have called me a few times lately but it's been at the worst possible times. And I've been trying to organize and sleep for school. But I promise to call, you guys. And with Dad, well, I left a message, and damn Erica called from his house, and now the ball's in my court and I have to call back. At least I have school to talk about now. date: Sunday, August 17, 2003 time of entry: 1:17 am updates: this time of entry: 11:59 pm updates: new layout, this and added some older pics to my site. one arizona one, and three ireland ones invacations. one in the senior pics, and two in late sept in my nc page. two from 1999, freshman year, in my ca page. annnd I will have my lifehouse concert pics plus other random crap I took developed because I finally finished the roll. the tagboard is at the bottom of this page. and: happy birthday to dad. didn't get ahold of him on the phone. did talk to tait up in NY and he went to a mets game and got to taunt barry bonds (SF team), and his friends told the mets outfielders that they would have their children is they would give them a ball. all good fun. he also got a sea kayak, and we talked about pirates and marine invertebrate biology and the comparisons of sail and power boats. I started zach's new temporary site, hurts like fire LITE. he'll add a column soon, so for now it's just me playing with his content. layout movie description: Blow (Johnny Depp, Penelope Cruz) Chronicles the high-speed rise and fall of George Jung, who became the largest importer of cocaine in the US. Great acting, great plot, also funny, dramatic, and moving. movie quotes: Okay, whatever you've been through...multiply that by ten and you'll have some vague conception of where I'm at. (-The Mexican)
Are you blame-shifting? ...Now you're blame-shifting! Your a blame-shifter! Jerry: One more word outta you and I will crash this fucking car. One more word Sam, and I swear, I swear to fucking God Sam, one more word.
Harold: He wasn't talking to you, fuck face. Raoul: Few people understand the psychology of dealing with a highway traffic cop. Normal speeders will panic and immediately pull over to the side. This is wrong. It arouses contempt in the cop heart. Make the bastard chase you, he will follow...(-Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas)
Raoul: There's some kind of machine in the sky. Some sort of, well, electric snake, coming right at us.
Hitchhiker: Hot damn! I never rode in a convertible before!
Raoul (to hitchhiker): I want you to understand that this man at the wheel is my attorney. He's not just some dingbat I found on the strip, man. He's a foreigner. I think he's probably Samoan. But that doesn't matter, though, does it? Are you prejudiced?
time of entry: 3:41 am updates: this today: went to target, got stuff to organize my room, and tomm we will get some actual furniture, or at least look at some. we also had rented some movies a couple nights ago and we watched those. movies: Sleepy Hollow- (Johnny Depp, Christina Ricci) Great little Tim Burton flick...the effects are a little shoddy, as many are in those kinda 'horror' flicks. But the humor is great, and Johnny Depp as usual is excellent. Decent movie, only likeable if you like these kinds of movies, or the kind of humor. Shanghai Knights- (Jackie Chan, Owen Wilson) Saw in theaters, and like dit then. It's still funny now. I love Owen Wilson in it, very funny. Good fights. The Importance of Being Earnest- (Reese Witherspoon, Colin Firth, Rupert Everett) The Oscar Wilde play. Quite funny, but very predictable, as most plays are. Liked it though. The Life of David Gale- (Kevin Spacey, Kate Winslet) Another predicatble movie, but not as bad as I thought it would be. It was alright, good acting and stuff. movie quotes: [Bill Murray's character]: Guess where I'm going next week? Ed Wood (not enjoying this game): I dunno, where? [Bill Murray]: Me-hee-co. Guess what I'm going to do when I get there? Ed Wood: I dunno, lay on a beach. [Bill Murray]: Wrong. I am going to get a series of hormonal injections, and when those girls start to work, they're going to take out my organs...and make me a woman. Ed Wood (astonished): Are you serious? [Bill Murray]: It wasn't until I saw your movie that I decided I needed to take action. Goodbye penis! [Dolores, Ed Wood's girlfriend]: Can you please keep it down? (-Ed Wood) Dolores Fuller: You bastard! You two-timing, dress wearing, son of a bitch! (-Ed Wood) Roy O'Bannon: Yeah, it's a concept you aren't familiar with, there are these things called parents. That's what we have, parents who love us. You don't, because you're a little orphan boy. (-Shanghai Knights)
Ichabod Crane: (on his bed, half hidden in covers) It was the headless horseman!
[finding a body in the lake while fishing]
Ed: Kathy, I'm about to tell you something I've never told any girl on a first date. But I think it's important that you know. (pause) I like to wear women's clothes.
Tuna: Figured it out.
[Santa Monica Airport. . . A pair of boltcutters snaps the chain off a single-engine Cessna] time of entry: 12:26 am updates: this and I have been organizing the content a bit, as well as playing around with geo/teganthegreat. today: went over to Zach's to hang out with him and Greg. watched tv. movie quotes: Terry: You know the hardest thing about being smart? Joe: No. Terry: I always pretty much know what's gonna happen next. There's no suspense. (-Bandits) George Jung: It was the greatest feeling I ever had. Followed abruptly by the worst feeling I ever had. (-Blow)
Marla Singer: My God. I haven't been fucked like that since grade school. Boyd: If you take away the horror of the scene, take away the tragedy of the death, take away all the moral and ethical implications that have been drilled into your head since grade one, do you know what you're left with? A 105-pound problem that needs to be moved from point A to point B. ( -Very Bad Things)
Esmerelda: Have you sheep strayed so far from the flock?!
Sookie: What kind of name is 'Igby'?
[to the priest]
Sookie: You have a huge crush on me, don't you?
John: Jesus, Plank, couldn't you have got smokeless cartridges? I can't see a bloody thi-- Ah! I've been shot!
Tom: Listen to this one then; you open a company called the Arse Tickler's Faggot Fan Club. You take an advert in the back page of some gay mag, advertising the latest in arse-intruding dildos, sell it a bit with, er . . . I dunno, "does what no other dildo can do until now", latest and greatest in sexual technology. Guaranteed results or money back, all that bollocks. These dills cost twenty-five each; a snip for all the pleasure they are going to give the recipients. They send a cheque to the company name, nothing offensive, er, Bobbie's Bits or something, for twenty-five. You put these in the bank for two weeks and let them clear. Now this is the clever bit. Then you send back the cheques for twenty-five pounds from the real company name, Arse Tickler's Faggot Fan Club, saying sorry, we couldn't get the supply from America, they have sold out. Now you see how many of the people cash those cheques; not a single soul, because who wants his bank manager to know he tickles arses when he is not paying in cheques! (-Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels)
Edward D. Wood, Jr.: You seem a little agitated. Do you want to go outside and have some air?
Bunny Breckinridge: How about some glitter? When I headlined in Paris, audiences always loved it when I sparkled.
[drugged up, driving with his attorney and a carload of drugs, he picks up a hitch hiker] time of entry: 4:28 am updates: this and soon some pics, once I finish em. They aren't new, technically, just some I scanned. today: saw American Wedding, went to the mall, the Mellow Mushroom, Jungle Rapids, and Walmart with Zach, Aaron, Eric and Allen, Chris and Christy. little bit of drama, and little bit of fun, but I was not really paying much attention the whole time, a little tired from my lack of sleep. however, I am still up, so I guess I can't talk. movies: American Wedding (Jason Biggs) I dunno, it had a few funny parts, but it's just not my kinda funny movie. The gay bar dance scene was pretty funny. Plan 9 From Outer Space (Bela Lugosi, Vampira) I watched most of the beginning and thru to the middle, but then I got distracted. I don't think it was the WORST movie I've ever seen, but I'll have to tell you when I see it again. Don Juan De Marco (Johnny Depp, Marlon Brando) This was good, Depp was sexy, but I think they couldn've gone a bit deeper or something. I liked when Depp was teaching that black guy how to dance, and all of Depp's little side remarks. Sexy movie in it's own way, good date movie if ya had a bf/gf...to get ya in the mood. Heh. internet: rathergood.com has a new song up, Hippo Girl. It's decently funny, but not as good as Gay Bar. See it for yourself at http://www.rathergood.com/hippo music: Been downloading Damien Rice, he's this Irish folk-ish type singer guy, and so far I like his stuff. Slow stuff mostly, but maybe he has some faster songs. Plus on Volcano I always have liked that layering/harmony stuff. And a cello is in it. Yay for cellos. songs: Volcano- Damien Rice Cannonball- Damien Rice Fallow- Fiction Plane Crown of Scars- Lifehouse (Blyss) movie quotes: because I am that bored.
Ed Wood: "[I] was wondering if you'd like to go out sometime, grab some dinner, maybe?"
[About to film a scene with a large fake octopus in a lake]
Bunny Breckinridge: How do you get all your friends to be baptised just so you can make a monster movie? Edward D. Wood, Jr.: They're driving me CRAZY! These Baptists are stupid. Stupid. STUPID! (-Ed Wood)
[Talking about Jack's escape from desert island]
Captain Jack Sparrow: You've thrown out the rum!
Dale Shelby: Barney? Could you not poke the body with a stick, please?
Graham Hess: What should I say?
Commodus: It vexes me. I'm terribly vexed. (-Gladiator) time of entry: really early updates: Well, Capt. Jack Sparrow just doesn't go away. I am still deciding whether or not I have the energry to change a few things with this layout, but we'll see I guess. Mmmm, Jack. I added some (5) wallpapers in my visitor section to go with the Johnny Depp/Capt. Jack F*ckin Sparrow theme. Hee. Uh...yeah. today: did nothing worthy or writing about, but hope to do something tomm. plans:gonna maybe go to the new irish place near wrightsville, it had pool tables and I think food. and I plan to shop a bit since it's that tax free weekend. music: Fiction Plane, Coldplay, Switchfoot, Smashing Pumpkins, Lifehouse, Pirates Soundtrack, Snatch Soundtrack particular songs: Fallow- Fiction Plane Swords Crossed- Klaus Badelt The Medallion Calls- Klaus Badelt Barbossa is Hungry- Klaus Badelt To the Pirate Cave!- Klaus Badelt Temtation Waits- Garbage Shiver- Coldplay Fool's Gold- The Stone Roses Pug- Smashing Pumpkins Walk This Land- E Z Rollers Golden Brown- The Stranglers movies: Ed Wood (Johnny Depp, Martin Landau) About the terrible director/writer who made the worst B-rate classic horror films ever, such as Plan 9 From Outer Space, Edward D. Wood. This is quite a funny movie, and the way Ed's mind works is just great. Great acting, great humor, and also directed by Tim Burton. I can't describe this movie much better, you just have to rent it. Blow (Johnny Depp, Penelope Cruz) Chronicles the high-speed rise and fall of George Jung, who became the largest importer of cocaine in the US. Great acting, great plot, also funny and moving. The Man Who Cried (Johnny Depp, Christina Ricci) Ricci is a girl abandoned by her father in Russia and moved to England where she's raised in an orphanage. Later she moves to France near the time of WWII. She meets Depp and they fall in love while working in a stage show. But she's Jewish and has to decide how to cope with the Nazi's coming to invade Paris. Good, not much verbal acting, but still worth it to watch Johnny as a gypsy sex god. Title is a bit stupid, especially since its about the GIRL and Depp's crying scene isn't like any main plot element. Should be titled, the Practically Mute Yiddish Orphan Girl Who Get's It on With a Sexy Gypsy. Maybe that's why I'm not in the movie business, or any business at all. To Die For (Nicole Kidman, Joaquin Phoenix) Honestly didn't really watch the whole movie, just watched the Joaquin Phoenix parts. It was worth renting just to watch Joaq's funny dance scene. The movie seemed alright. time of entry: 12:14 am updates: this and my camera is down to it's last few pics, so soon I'll have some new visual stimulation up, oh and I have a few paintings by Pino in my fave art section. today: slept till two and grudgingly got up with nothing to look forward to. so I sat around, ate, painted (it's this girl checking out herself in a mirror in her room, and I got the basics down so far), listened to music and now I am gonna clean up a bit. mom has started on her five day stretch so I gotta amuse myself. maybe she'll let me steal the car one night. I have to get up at the ungodly hour of 8 tomm to wait for the god damn cable guy since our cable has no sound. whoo. did: Saw Pirates Tuesday with Zach and Aaron. It was just as entertaining as the first two times. We also stopped at McDonalds and Wal-Mart, then we went home. Seems as though everyone is uninspired to think of things to do, and no one wants to just hang out. Maybe it will give me a chance to do some school related stuff that I have been ignoring and putting off. Fun. I don't think I've done anything constructive in months. I dunno if that's a complaint or just a fact. plans: saturday we are gonna maybe go to the new irish place near wrightsville, it had pool tables and I think food. music: Fiction Plane, Coldplay, Switchfoot, Tori Amos, Lifehouse, Jump, Little Children july entries
