It was a good day. I took a quiz that I know I aced, and got my paper back in British Lit. What a teacher she is. There was writing all over all of the pages, most of which was purely critical of either style, diction, or specificity, and I still got a 93%. That's the kind of feedback that make writers better.

Woot!

I forgot to mention, the other day when I went to see "The Passion...," the guy at the ticket booth asked for my driver's license to make sure I was 17.

Not a compliment... I haven't been carded since I was about 14.

Crest white strips? More like, Crest puts-tiny-painful-holes-in-my-teeth... strips... Youch!

Me: i think i've known you for a year!
Audrey: sure
Audrey: wow, that is a random fart
Audrey: i man
Audrey: WOW
Audrey: fact
Me: LOL

perfect.

There's something so beautiful and innocent about Sophia Coppola. I'm glad she won the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay. The Oscars this year went almost exactly as I would have wanted it, but I have to say, having heard such great things about Mystic River, I really think it's a travisty that it was released the same year as Lord of the Rings.

And I still think Kill Bill had the best cinematography I've seen in the past few years. Other than that and the fact that Bill Murray and Johnny Depp were beaten by Sean Penn, things went perfectly. Even in that, Sean Penn had never won before; I think he should have won for Dead Man Walking, so it was fitting. And I'm sure he was great. But Pirates of the Carribean was so fun!!

Oh well. My E! True Hollywood story will definitely include last night's Oscars. "As I was sitting on the floor indian-style with the TV on and my sketchbook in front of me, I was astonished, relieved, and ultimately captivated by the grandeur of Lord of the Rings. It rightfully won so many awards, and the director was so happy..."

I promise to thank Peter Jackson in my speech, and all the hobbits of Middle Earth. Sean Astin, you were robbed this year.

I was going to forgo the NYU application all together, and it has been dormant for a few months, but I got a letter in the mail from them saying "We just found out from the dean, if you are applying as a transfer to the film school, you have to start in the summer."

1. I'm applying again. Thanks, NYU for the energizing letter.

2. I could be in NYC as early as May!!!

WOOT! Freaking awesome! Or, I don't get in, and I go about my way. Either way is okay for me right now. Oh, and I still want feedback on the tree picture; this is life or death people.

Hey, I seriously don't know about this one. Portfolio-worthy? Yay or nay? Be real. Tell me if it sucks.

Jen gave these flowers to me. Thanks Jen.

I turned in my first paper late, and after the deduction, I still got an A!

WOO HOOOOOO!

I have about an A- average right now in that class...

Korea, desho?

I entered the guitar picture in a contest at dpchallenge.com a few days ago, the second picture I've ever entered. The first picture was crap, but this one is better. So I get this email saying they think it's not my own work and want me to submit the picture directly from the digital camera so they won't disqualify me.

Then I remembered that I don't really care and that they can all read this if/when they come to my site. Retards... i mean... Regards, Matt.

Well, not that I could have lasted very long on Atkins (I pigged out at Cici's Pizza last night), but I didn't know Dr. Atkins died of heart disease while about 75 pounds overweight.

Knowing that now, it's amazing that so many restaurants and companies in the food industry are now supporting this rediculous diet. I seriously think that many people on the diet really know of the risks and just want to lose the wait as soon as possible just because they want to look better. I guess for them the large risk of heart disease isn't enough to turn them away.

We are so weird.

My voyage with Atkins has begun.

And will be ending soon. I just payed 6 bucks for some nasty Atkins cereal to find out that I can't even drink milk.

What the crap!

So Alexis, I hope you don't mind that you're my new banner... I think that's such a great picture though.
