oscar wilde is the jesus of quotes, not even kidding<3 also strangely lengthy entry e_e
so today. i got up and went off to college. had a discussion along the way about last nights house episode, which mum recorded for some reason even tho she hasnt been. i asked her who she would speed-date between house, wilson, or chase.
mum: HOUSE.
me: NO WAY LOL. hes waaay too mean
mum: no i would choose him
me: no hes mean!
mum: house.
me: i wouldnt choose chase; i dont like pretty boys.
mum: i would choose house.
me: i would choose wilson :3 hes so sweet, daw.
mum: i would choose house.
XDDDDD well, i should have expected that. art was pretty boring (imagine that) she did have this rly neat engraving tho. it was based on a 16th century piece, but the thing she had was done in the 19th century. so when she passed it around i didnt want to let go. also, i was like :D!!! at her at one point cos she was talking about lithographs involving stones and she was like "if any of you have seen life of brian its like that, using stones" and i was like YOU SAID LIFE OF BRIAN! XD
went over and met with my prof. hee. i hate her assignment but i love her; shes such a bubbly, sweet person. i sat down and she was like :D at me and then asked me if i felt good about the paper. me: a little. her: LOL a little? me: i couldnt get five pages D: her: LOL yeah youre NOT the only one XDDD apparently hardly any of us could? anyhoo, i told her i felt like i was rambling and she was all :O! oh no, no. youre not rambling :3 and then she was telling me ways i could pad it out and wotnot and she concluded with "you definitely know wot youre doing" XDDDDDDDDDDD if she could only have seen my twitter/this page. oh well. (btw i still, yanno, need to do that >_O)
then mum came and got me and we went to that rly yummy place run by mexicans. the food comes out super quick and everything <3 yum. after that came home, checked about on twitter and lj and quickly read some documents and sent them into my advisor!prof before actually going and attending the class. as i always send shit in and dont speak, i didnt say anything this time and pretty much daydreamed the whole time. one thing that rly annoyed me is we talked about cecil rhodes and everyone said his name weird. how do you guys say cecil? i say ceh-sul (like youre gonna say sully; my advisor!prof said it this way too) one kid said see-sul
afterward i sat outside. it was a very nice day; it was slightly cool (it could have been a bit warmer but HEY not complaining winter is almost banished ;___;) and it was nice and windy<3 i had the urge to fly a kite lol fail. you might not know this about me, but i used to fly kites like fucking mad XDDD not even kidding. id run around in our field and shit. the WORST was when its too windy and it yanks the kite away from you. OR EVEN WORSE: youre running, dont see a dip in the ground, faceplant, and your fucking kite flies away. OR it goes into a goddamn tree and you have to go up and get it. XDDD all of these events have happened to me, and more than once. i bought kites and i made kites. i am...i dont even know. whimsical i guess...D: now i want to fly a kite
LOL ANYHOO >___> i went off to see schindlers list. wot aggravated me was right off the bat someone swiped their card, turned around, and left. there werent too many people that showed up total, and a lot of them that did show up left rly early on. like SUPER early on ;___; wot rly pissed me off was 2 1/2 hours into it 2 people showed up all did they swipe cards? we said yes and one of them was like FUCK! well have to come back tomorrow. WTF. sneaking in to watch 45 minutes? BULLSHIT MAN. it got to the end of the first disc and was like FLIP TO OTHER SIDE and there were like 5 of us left and when others started getting up all fuck it i did too XD i stayed nearly the whole time. here i am, hypocritical ino but this is different cos most convos last an hour (if that) and plus i just watched this movie like about a month ago for holocaust so...
FAIL of the movie: in the beginning everyone was talking so loudly it was essntially the level of screaming. so i was rly irritated. MORE fail? i heard this: girl one: are they speaking german?
girl 2: german?
girl 1: or english? are they speaking english?
girl 2: i think so...
girl 1: i think so too...im just bad with accents.
my face was srsly like this: D: ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! this was in the beginninig of the movie so NO ONE was speaking german; it was all english. its just...the level of stupidity...ohmigawd. as you might have caught from my twitter, im delighted when someone tallish (like liam neeson) stands next to ben kingsley cos he looks even tinier than normal and then i want to put him in my pocket. LIKE IN WITHOUT A CLUE FKJKLJGF when hes with lestrade XDDD lestrade towers over watson and it makes me flail. im going to post it here for the greater good:
I CAN HAS TINY WATSON NAOW PLZ TY<3
so yeah dad came and got me and i came home and read my volpone ;_____; i cant say i didnt see it coming wot with the beginning saying they will all be sold in the end but still
mosca taunts the three men with he & volpone pretending that volpone is dead and mosca is sole heir (LOL right here volpone should have yanno NOT done that) and volpones gleefully watching all HAHAHA MAKE FUN OF THEM YES >:D and then afterward volpone DISGUISES!1! himself and harasses the three men, taunting them about not being made heir & being strung along the whole time which was pretty funny. one of the men freaks out and says that he lied cos i mean hes got no treasure so wot does it matter. volpones like OHSHIT im in trouble and then he sees mosca and asks mosca for help. mosca pretends not to know him and tells the court to have volpone whipped. volpone freaks out, begs mosca for help. mosca asks for half his fortune. volpone agrees; mosca says thats not enough & he wants more. mosca is going to let them drag volpone away.
volpone REVEALS! himself, which basically makes their whole testimony fall apart. the innocent people are freed, and the carrion birds are punished pretty severely, moscas whipped and thrown in jail and volpones locked away. i could ramble for ages on this play but mosca is brilliant. he weaves shit together and its just fantastic. read the play ;_; read it if you love this kinda shit. im not much on plays but i was like <3 the whole time and :O! as well. i would pay to see this performed. wantsobad.
two things i found funny:
one: remember how mosca told lady would be her husband the knight was with a whore? in one of the acts i read tonight, she found him and BITCHED HIM OUT. it was pure LULZ. and he was talking with peregrine, a young brit, and his wifes argument was so persuasive that politic (the knight) believed peregrine rly was a transvestite whore XDDDDD he was basically like OHSHIT i better go and he leaves and lady would be goes apeshit on peregrine, whos like WOT THE HELL
two; lady would-be will never stfu. this bit made me LOL. avocatori are like court people, by the by.
lady would-be: surely i had no purpose to scandalize your honours or my sex's
third avocatore: we do believe it
lwb: surely you must believe it
sa: madam we do
lwb: indeed you may. my breeding is not so coarse-
fa: we know it.
lwb: -to offend with pertinacy-
ta: lady-
lwb: -such a presence; no surely.
fa: we well think it
lwb: you may think it
first avocatore [to other avocatori] let her o'ercome (ie have the last word XDDDDD)
i also love that pretty much everyone is an animal. mosca=fly, corbaccio, corvino, and voltore are crow raven and vulture (not sure who is who except for voltore=vulture XD), volpone=fox, peregrine is obviously a peregrine falcon XDDD...and how they make reference to this often. lady-would be is referred to as a she-wolf, peregrine gets back at politic by convincing him to get into a tortoise shell to save his life, then humiliates him by having him creeep along and pretend to be the creature, volpone taunts people by saying hes the fox that got the cheese, or mosca says he laid a trap for the fox, the carrion birds, etc. I JUST WISH THIS WOULD BE MADE INTO A PLAY OR SOMETHING GAWDAMN.
