hi,
i figured i should update this since it's been a while i guess.
fyi, i'm reading American Psycho right now. i'm pretty sure i don't like it thus far, but i've been told it gets better. just basically this terrible person doing terrible things to other people, with no redeaming qualities for the main character whatsoever. also, i think sometimes books are almost worse than movies or videogames since you are forced to imagine violence... and maybe using your imagination and brain on it is worse for you than seeing it played out? i dunno. just a thought i had, but maybe book burnings are better than censoring movies or games? i dunno. i don't really think any of those are good, just saying.
aaaaannnnnnnnddddddddd. i dunno. that's all. i got my movie shot, but i think i've told that in person to everyone who reads this, except the very lonely and bored FBI agent who is spying on me (hello, Gus! how are the kids?).
just need to find some way to get a hold of Final Cut Pro to finish up. there is this one girl i know at school who said i could borrow her laptop, but i haven't heard from her in a while, and i don't want to be too pushy for that favor.
also, another school friend texted me and asked what i was up to on Thursday. i thought he wanted to go to the bar and hang out, since we've talked about that a bunch, but turns out he wanted me to act in a torture film and also borrow some fake blood. i have plans anyway (with Cryztal, duh.) so i said no, and was slightly embarrassed by my assumption that this was a purely social text message.
uhm. also, i cleaned my room.
bye.

Final Cut Pro: waffles has it.
Let's hang soon!
