*tries singing along with Israel Kamakawiwo'ole's "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" in Spanish with the provided Spanish subtitles on the video she's watching* Holy smokes... xd At some points I'm able to sing just in tune... but then there's other times where the Spanish translation is much longer than the length of lyric. *shrugs* At least I tried anyway... lol.

Reading this Suspense Thriller book for my class makes me realize how little of the older Suspense Thriller films I've seen. Sort of makes the reading a bit more boring when I have no mental imagery to reflect back on, if it was for films I've seen... or at least familiar with - either by name or from ads.

*continues reading* And doesn't help either when it's a very long chapter and the guy tends to be very wordy. Several of my classmates were discussing that aspect of him; we felt he could have easily said his point in a couple of pages... rather than going in a round-about way.

Plus I think a lot of it is just a bunch of description of particular movies... to the point of almost being spoiler-ish. At least the book I used for my Movies class last term did fairly well at only addressing the certain aspects that related to the points being covered... not the entire film.

*finishes reading/browsing through the assigned chapter for the class* As I said before... gets a bit boring reading about a movie in such long detail. Makes you sometimes wonder what the chapter was about anyway.
The point of the chapter? That characters display different images of morals. Certain uses of light or metaphors help set up the scenery and roles for the characters. Sometimes items help set the action and/or climax into motion.
Um... yeah... at least that's what I believe the beginning part was trying to get across. Because 99% of the text was just descriptions of the various movies.

*gasps* I just realized that in the portion of Benedict's interview where he's cooking, on the fridge there's two picture frames. The pictures are of the two guests they were interviewing - the gal ((forgot her name)) and Benedict Cumberbatch. xd
Anyway... I love how natural and casual Benedict is in all of his interviews. He doesn't seem to give off that guarded, formal aura that most other celebrities tend to do. I really would love it if Ellen did an interview with him. I think the two of them would have lots of fun. And I know Ellen would love to have him do the Alan Rickman impersonation as well... and probably would make her own pretend impersonations of either Rickman or others. Heck, she might have Benedict play the game Celebrity or one of the other variations with her. xd

I still have to do my reading for 20th/21st C. Lit. class, but I don't feel like starting that right now. So I'll wait to do it. Our next class isn't until Monday, so... it's all good ((our class only meets on Mondays)).

I totally would love to go to WSU's Pullman campus just so I could see this building in person. It's the Thompson Hall.  Great imagery for a Hogwarts themed photoshoot, lol. sweatdrop

I wonder if people are allowed up on the top of that tower with the railing (or at least it looks like railing). Be cool to see the Pullman campus from up there...

It's nice that things have picked up a bit around here. 3nodding There's constantly new posts appearing. But then again, there is conversations going on, so that might help things a bit, lol.

*overhears discussion between Mom and Dad* Hmm... it sounds like Dad's having some troubles keeping up with the multi-tasking aspects to the dinner he's making. Hopefully dinner will still be good... whee
