homgsh asked: If this is your first time reading 1984, I'd suggest reading The Newspeak appendix before reading the actual book. 1984 is fantastic, but it can be a little bit difficult to understand the language if you just jump right in. Seriously, I need to reread that book. I haven't read it since I studied it in my sophomore English class.

Sober Summer of Celibacy.
Me: It's funny. I thought I was going to have nothing to do this summer... LIES.
aerogare: oh?
Me: Between the novel I'm supposed to be editing, the film I'm making for the film festival/my graduate portfolio, going to miami for a film festival... and then my usual voracious library habits and trying to watch a new movie every night, THERE AREN'T ENOUGH HOURS IN THE DAY :(
aerogare: WHY AREN'T ALL THE BOYS TRYING TO FUCK YOU
Me: They probably are and 1) I'm too oblivious/naive to notice and 2) definitely do not want to hook up with any of my guy friends from high school *vomit*

OCD.
So I finished my first book from the library, Conversations with Scorsese by Richard Schickel. It’s basically a giant dialogue between the epic film director and this (apparently) not-so-bad film critic. It gives a lot of insight into the old Hollywood film business, Scorsese’s directing process, and the detriment on your health that working so hard can do to one’s body.
Now...

joyfulwanderer asked: also- if you haven't seen "The Secrets in their Eyes" you should put that on your list. Saw it last year at some arthouse theater in Asheville. AMAZING.

That's a Problem.
I just immediately dismissed a movie on Netflix Instant Watch because under what “This Movie Is:” it said “Feel-Good”.
I don’t particularly like to think of myself as a horribly depressing person but apparently my movie choices are as such.

moonsiren:
for the first time in awhile i got asked out by someone while i was at work yesterday.
the guy was sort of a creep and the experience left me looking back on our conversation and cringing at certain things i had said and how he had probably misconstrued them when i was just trying to be friendly….

Another Moment of Zen.
Me: Your brain is trying to subconsciously tell you that... HE'S A DOUCHE BAG.
Future Roommate: Gee, thanks, Brain! I HAD NO IDEA BEFORE NOW THAT HE WAS A GIANT BAG O' CHODES. I also greatly appreciate your analysis :D You should write a book.
Me: It would be called, "That Guy is a Douche Bag and 101 Other Things Your Sleeping Brain is Trying to Tell You".
FR: DUDE. Bestseller.

I'm Sensing a Trend Here...
Last summer, I lived in an apartment by myself for three weeks because my parents wouldn’t pay for me to fly up to be with them since they were going to come visit me anyway.
Boredom ensued (quickly).
I ended up watching a new movie I hadn’t seen every day during those 3 weeks. And it was AWESOME.
So now that I don’t have to move four times this summer, I’m going to do...

BITCHIN'.
In my ever increasingly zealous need to escape the Northland and do something exciting, I’ll (hopefully) be flying to Miami in two weeks to couch surf with a couple of friends and go to the festival for the 48 hour film challenge. (aka seeing the film E. and I made on a theater screen)
I’m mainly surprised that my parents are cool with this. My dad is the kind of parent that is...

Sola Perduta Abbandonata
Quicksand in an hour glass, simply, truth is an illusion, deceit trickling into honesty, you can’t throw away secrets given out openly, blankly, freely, forcefully.
I don’t want to take them back I just want you to take a stand either grab my hand because I’m falling or push me off the edge. Ambiguity or Purgatory?

You Know What I'd Love?
To hang out with friends that are guys and not be hit on the entire evening. Or felt up. Or grabbed awkwardly. Or called a lesbian. Or asked to take part in sexual situations. Or be forced into sexual situations.
Yeah. That’d be great.
