edited life goal

due to the fact that, as jess so kindly pointed out, ewan mcgregor is already married, i have decided that my new life goal is to marry paul walker.

the rest of "break". hmm...

had to go to school on friday, but it happened to be red cross blood drive day, so all of my seniors were wandering in and out randomly throughout the day. i never had more than half of them at a time in any class. so i just pushed my lesson off until monday, had each class answer a few review questions from the chapter, then sat around for the rest of the period talking and making sure nobody passed out from blood loss. ("heather?...heather?...is she breathing?...no, don't jab her with a pencil...") it was great. the only variation was 11th period when chad decided he wanted to watch the last of the mohicans, therefore everybody else had to, too. never mind that the last of the mohicans has nothing to do with psychology. then again, neither does half of what we talk about in that class. this is what happens when you student teach a subject you've never actually taken.

friday night we, we being becky, hannah, ryan, meagan, and myself, decided to watch whatever movie was being shown for free in the tlc. it happened to be into the blue. this was an astoundingly bad movie. so bad, in fact, that it was amazing. they managed to take every cliche and cram them into one movie: buried treasure, lost pirate ships, shark attacks, crack ho girlfriends who are going to blow the cover, plane crashes, sunken wrecks, drug lords, evil rivals who take your territory and destroy the environment in the process, corrupt policemen, etc, etc, etc. we managed to predict every plot twist ("oh, yeah, i know what's going to happen: the shark will eat the stupid girlfriend, and the evil rival will blow up the drug lords"...ten minutes later..."damn. i didn't think they'd actually do it.") the only redeeming feature of the movie was that it featured paul walker half-naked the whole time.

in closing, i wish i had the self-discipline to get more sleep
