I thought Eragon was alright. The plot was basically an orgy of Star Wars and Lord of the Rings themes, only with dragons (And the culminative battle happens in Zion from The Matrix). The screenplay felt like a first draft with some VERY LotR film rip-off moments.
Oh but the lead actor. <3333333callme

"I ran a half a mile in 3 minutes and 40 seconds earlier today. That was in 40 degree weather in shorts and a t-shirt. I was outside for like 2 hours and now I have a bad cough and didn't run that well considering people were doing it in like 3 minutes. I don't know what to feel. Plus, it's the first time this year the teachers decide to load us with a huge amount of work."
I'm quite impressed...if that accounts for anything.
I declared my major today. I suppose I can say that I officially have some type of direction.
I agree about the lead actor!
ETA: His name is Ed Speleers
And I love Star Wars, and enjoyed LOTR...so maybe that's why I love Eragon. Plus, I've had a thing for dragons for a long time.
Okay this pisses me off and I finally have to rant here.
I hate it when I am typing some message to someone on AIM, they happen to type something before me. Then suddenly my away pops up and erases everything I just typed. I hate that so much. But I don't want to take my away off. This was pointless.
I keep catching myself curling up and trying to go to sleep, but I have to stay awake for at least another hour, or however long it takes me to write two pages.
Crap crap crap. I closed my eyes for a second and woke up more than an hour later.
In one of the Suncoasts by us, they have a lifesize cutout of the Eragon guy.
Someone just IMed me and I have no idea who they were. They asked if it was ok to put some picture on their myspace. They had a link to said picture, and when I clicked on it nothing opened...and they didn't reply after that. Hmm...

It's probably a virus. DO NOT CLICK THEM EVER! All my stupid friends click them and they get sent to me. It's annoying.
I didn't know I was even getting a report card today, but I was impressed with myself when I did. (Actually, it was more like dead shock. LOL.)
Curse the Sundance Channel! Grey Gardens was supposed to be on tonight, but it isn't anymore.
Booo.
I think one of my nails is growing crooked.
I slept through my 8am....again.
I hate being sick I hate being sick I hate being sick.
And the worst part? I hate being at school when I'm sick.
I worked six hours last night, from 2-8PM.
Now it's 7AM and I haven't slept since I work up yesterday at 9AM. This is not looking like a good day.
Spanish is kicking me in the butt.
I have to read all of these documents about the Nuremberg trials for history, and they're like...copies of the original documents so they're hard to read and a bazillion pages long.

I got a summer job. Now I just need to find another one as well.
Will you be in NYC for the summer, Lexi? Or is your job at home?
I just got my grades for winter quarter. I am very, VERY happy.

That's awesome! I'll be there, too. Excitingness.
Thanks!
I have a 10 page essay due tomrorrow that I have to turn in a bit before 1 pm. I have barely started it yet. Luckily it's one of those opinion things that you can bullsh*t on.
My roommate always opens the damn window in the coldest weather even though me and my other roommate always shut it...it gets so freakin' cold. But do I say anything? No.
I just kicked my chair. Owww.

I'm home and bored. I'm waiting for Grey's Anatomy to come on again because I fell asleep during it last night.
