After celebrating MLK day in style, I end up here at home waiting for John Mayer to show up on Larry King live for the special on the Haiti disaster. When I say "in style," what I mean is sitting in a room working on calculus for hours on end in order to study. Highlight of the day? Being able to sleep in until noon with no worries of missing anything.
Since I'm only taking 3 classes (but remaining full time), I tend to have a lot of free time on my hands. With all this extra time, I would think it means more time to focus on each of my classes. But nay! I've been finding myself watching movie after movie on Netflix instant online movies. No complaints, though. If I actually had a steady job, joining Netflix would mosdef be on the top of my priority list. Speaking of movies, I'm pretty bummed I forgot about the Golden Globes. But it's nothing that a simple list of winners can't cover.
Watched The Hurt Locker last night and honestly didn't really see what the hype was about. Don't get me wrong - I thought it was a decent film with genuine characters, but it didn't really stand out to me. Maybe I should consider watching it a second time - alone. On the other hand, Up In the Air pulled some strong emotions out of me. I may have went in with a bias since G. Cloon is one of my favs at the time being, but regardless - overall top-notch quality from all the characters. Vera Farmiga has a simple, eloquent beauty, but it's her eyes that knock you over and reel you in. Definitely worth the money spent.
Countdown to John Mayer (#8): 1 month, 2 days.
Currently on repeat: Edge of Desire (apt. sessions)
