JUST A SIDE note: the main guy from Garden State [his name escapes me at the moment... either Zach Bradoff or Brad Zachoff or something similar] looks like Brad Pitt at times. Melissa doesn't agree, but it's there, maybe not from the profile shots but definitely when he looks in the general direction of the camera and has a kind of "I don't know what's happening" look on his face.
Now that that's out of the way, I've been hit with the sense of how little time I have before I go to college. I both want to go and don't want to leave. I know, I know, I'm quite the paradoxical type. That's what keeps you guys coming back for more. Not. I had a chat with my sister about what I should bring. It was very interesting. Just like this post. You'll have to take my word for it, because I'm not going to talk about it since I don't feel like it.
I watched The Italian Job and Shrek 2 [courtesy of Melissa Phatharanavik] recently, the latter I've already seen. I have to say, Italian Job had a very Ocean Eleveny style to it. Shrek 2 had a very Shrekky style to it, but some might chalk that up to it being the sequel. Speaking of chalking up, I am on page 377 of 529 of Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides. It is not boring, as some people [like Melissa Phatharanavik] would have you believe. If you want to be bored, read something from Derek Kwan's reading selection.
Since I have to wait for my dad to stop talking on the phone in front of the TV to watch Father of the Pride [recorded] and Scrubs [also recorded], I suppose that gives us a little more alone time. Or some time for me to upload my Oregon pictures, now that my sister got my internet going back at normal speed.
I drove nearby CW today with Emily to pick up her little Bianca and Bianca friends. I observed the little children scrambling home with their backpacks and high school textbooks. They looked young. I felt old. I find high school such a foreign concept to me, even though not four months ago I was still enduring it, waiting patiently for its end [much like the elderly Desdemona Stephanides in Middlesex]. Oh hey, I can go watch TV now. Bye!
