Anyway... it's been yet another one of those days... I wanted to be social, but only with people i already know. Thusly removing any opportunity i had to go Out, anywhere. I wanted to go to the Chamber, until i realised that I didn't want to be out, in a club, with a bunch of people i didn't know. And of course, there were new people who wanted to meet me, today, on the day when i only wanted to be around people i know. Cause the universe is still dicking with me. Now, let's see how the rest of the weekend goes.
On the upside of things, my father is willing to let me take an A+ class, and pay for the books and whatnot. And my mother wants me to see if there are any more classes open, this semester. If there are, i know the ones i want to take. But i would also like to not have to take classes. But it's better than being bored.
Watched "Kafka," earlier, tonyte, and am watching "Brazil," now. Ian Holm In Surrealist Movie Night!! Woohoo! If i had "From Hell," that would be up next. We, Oh! Such dreams we had! They were delicious... *Licks lips* And so were yours.... *Evil Grin* ANYway, i need to go finish prepping my mind for the disturbing trials through which i shall be putting it, later.
A note, however: The themes in "Kafka" and "Brazil" are damn near Exact. Only difference, really, is that "Brazil" isn't dealing with an Active force, so much as the gross ineffectuality of the System. Kafka's main points draw from his stories "The Castle," "In The Penal Colony," "The Judgement," and various other allusions to his lesser-known works. These are all stories about an oppressive Force, be it the government, a father-figure, or the Outside World, as a whole. In Terry Gilliam's "Brazil," we have none of that. The bureaucracy and stagnation, and separation of the System, from the people causes the need for freedom and change. Simply a little side note, i thought you all might find interesting. Good Night.
Dream Well
