ok. so i started to write this rant and then decided against it. i'll give the gist of it here.

it's often annoying when people think you're young and then treat you differently when they realize you're 10 yrs old than they thought you were.

it's definitely annoying when people objectify you and the only 2 conversations they can have is 1. you are so thin! or 2. here, have a cookie.
that was satisfying. i think i had previously gotten most of my rant out of the way earlier.

i've heard of a study that women are more prone to hating their jobs when they don't get enough sleep. the adverse being that they wouldn't have so much job dissatisfaction if they got enough sleep.

... last night i went to bed at 10:30 and i can say w/ authority that the study was a bunch of crock and that besides being more awake, the day is crawling by.

classes have begun and i'm taking basic information sources & services and techincal services in small libraries. BRING ON THE EXCITEMENT!! YEA BUDDY! :)

also, the reading. oof!

anthony and i watched nightwatch last night. really good film! i like it because it didn't hold you hand throughout the entire movie. i hate when movies babystep you through every single thing, explaining in painful detail. having said that, i think sometimes it bordered on the too-artsy-unexplained.

watch it, maybe you'll see what i mean.

Oh, and sleep is totally overrated.

'Nightwatch', I saw this too, the only thing that bugged me at first was the weird subtitling but once i got over that I enjoyed the ideas behind it.

Another recent subtitling gripe was watching '8 1/2' by Fellini when in the daytime scenes the subtitles which were in white were shown against brightly lit day scenes. The film is in Black and White thus rendering the subtitles invisible!

Strange film with was great scenes but seemed vewry self-indulgent or maybe that was the point.

Claudia Cardinale really is magical on screen though.
