Posted: 2/5/06 at 10:37pmI suck at writing. I can't write for my life.

Posted: 2/5/06 at 10:38pmI like writing essays and I'm good at them. I work best under pressure. I put things off, and then I write a 2 to 3 page essay in ten minutes and I get an A, while my friend spent time on hers and gets a B. It makes her mad, lol.

Posted: 2/5/06 at 10:38pmI heart in-class essays. That may be because most of our teachers grade on a curve and everybody else seems unable to formulate a gramatically-correct sentance.

Posted: 2/5/06 at 10:39pmI do well under pressure too-- my friend got upset because she studied for hours for our global midterm, and I didn't study at all and did better then her.

Posted: 2/5/06 at 10:39pmI have never cheated...but in one class, (Modern World History) someone cheated on a multiple choice test (honors level) and the teacher (who is really awesome) got very angry and had the rest of the test essay-form. Which, I loved because it was somehow easier for me and it prepared me for A.P. U.S. history.

Gah. I've got to get to bed. I got practically no sleep last night, so it's surprisingly hard to type properly.
G'nite!

Didn't mean to make you sad, Dramatic_Irony! Just trying to save typing time. 
I know you didn't ask, but I'll tell you anyway, if that's okay. The main thing to know is that film editing requires a combination of great attention to detail, creative problem solving, and strong counseling/mediator type skills. (That's for when the producer and director are at each other's throats, or the sound supervisor is freaking out.) I'm in sound myself, so don't have to deal with that as much, but a picture editor has the creative work to do plus often finding herself in the hot seat, trying to handle pressures from a lot of different sides. Of course it's very rewarding as well, since a movie is really made in the editing room.

Posted: 2/5/06 at 10:43pmgoodnight! I don't think cheating is a big deal. I mean it is from the teachers point of view. I guess I could see why hard-core studiers would get upset, but .. I don't know.

Rent is playing at the dollar theater and I really wanted my father to see it. I just got back for seeing it for the fifth time. Every time I see it, the parts that I think could have done better or irk me for whatever reason stand out more, but so do the wonderful parts that I love.
Since I've been playing the soundtrack so often, my dad actually noticed that most of "Goodbye Love" was missing. He was like, "Where was that line about Mimi looking pale?" after the film was over. Heh. 
Regarding NYU: I'd recommend the Princeton Review's website (or, if you can afford it, one of their college guidebooks) for exact details. I believe approximately 28% of applicants are accepted with an average SAT score in the upper 1300s-low 1400s (old scale).
Chloe, thanks a lot for the song! I really appreciate everything you've uploaded. About that Rent Secret you mentioned... I don't know, I still have a hard time believing it, but the person just posted somewhat of an explanation. Again, I'm not sure if I really buy it, but you might be right after all.

Posted: 2/5/06 at 10:48pmCheating IS a big deal, Mel. Especially in college when classes are graded on a curve, and how you do is dependent on how the rest of the class does. How would you feel if you studied your hardest and ended up getting a lower grade because people who cheated did better than they should have? Not to mention, it's the easiest way to fail out of a class or get yourself thrown out of college for honor code violations.

That happened to me, too. I would think that there were so many things we could've seen, and this was our chance to see them.... but now we never will. But then the good stuff is just so wonderful.

...I just spent ten minutes trying to take a picture of my awesomely awesome earrings, then my computer wouldn't accept my new UBS thingie. So now I'm sad...
Carry on.

I wouldn't cheat in college..just highschool. I understand what your saying though, but to be completely honest I can't say I'll never cheat again.
There are so many things about the movie I wish were different, and that I could just change..and sometimes it makes me sad to think that we'll never have like another chance to change it. Because even if they do make a remake in like 20 years or something, it won't be with the original cast.

Yeah, I'll admit it... I've definitely cheated before. It's definitely not something I do often, something I'm proud of, or something I think it morally correct, but I've done it. I think the extent of anything I've done would be saving geometry proofs in my calculator and copying the first 18 lines of The Canterbury Tales out of my purse on a "memorization test" (don't ask, my teacher was odd).
I think a lot of faults I find in the movie are just a result of seeing the movie so many times and playing "director." I honestly don't think a lot of stuff was done wrong per se (granted, the cliff scene was pretty awful...), but I have a tendency to watch it thinking, "Wow, the staging of 'Another Day' would have been so much better if..." or "The camera during 'Your Eyes' should have been pulled away from Adam's face a couple inches."

Chloe, thanks again for sharing this with us! I'd also be interested in the answer to how much of the Mute lyrics did he write...
I'm at the point where I'm looking at grad schools...I was really lucky when I was looking at colleges that I by the start of my junior year had my two schools. Now I'm doing that whole "oh my gosh what to do" thing that I missed in high school...
And in class essays are heaven!

Posted: 2/5/06 at 11:05pmI know that everyone thinks the cliff scene is awful, but you have to see what he was trying to do. He was trying to contrast the light of Santa Fe and the dark of New York and show how far apart Mark and Roger were. It just ended up being laughable.

Posted: 2/5/06 at 11:05pmI just don't want to make the same mistake my sister did. She slacked off all of highschool and didn't get into any of her colleges. She really wanted to go to ASU, but didn't get in. She's now going to some random SUNY school.

Posted: 2/5/06 at 11:05pmThe Cliff is fun to laugh at. I can see what they were going for, it just did'nt work

Posted: 2/5/06 at 11:06pmThere's nothing wrong with SUNY schools.

yeah, there are a lot of things I'd change in RENT. One of them being how the Cat Scratch Club was portrayed..but at the end of the day, you just have to be happy that the movie was made at all.
no I know theres nothing wrong with them, it's just a random school that she doesn't care about.
i gg, goodnight!

You think that's weird? We had to recite the prologue in front of the class IN OLD ENGLISH. As you can see, I'm still dealing with the trauma caused by that class (which, in retrospect, I loved).

Yep, we had to write in old English as well. Oh, and trust me, having us write those lines was one of the less weird things that teacher assigned! Heh.

Posted: 2/5/06 at 11:14pmMy friends had to perform Hamlet's "To Be Or Not To Be". They had to memorize it, then act it out.
