without you, today's emotions would be the scurf of yesterday's

[splendourific]

I am trying awfully hard to study for my Media Law midterm... I am sitting on my duff drinking tea, eating vegan cookies and watching Amelie while highlighting the shit out of my textbook. Nothing is sinking in, however. And I justify my watching a movie while I study because every time I tried to study earlier today, I just ended up falling asleep

L.A. story = best Steve Martin movie ever, barring The Jerk. Which, really, has no competition.

Media Law = teh suck. We used to have pop quizzes on the names of all the Supreme Court justices. What this has to do with slander and libel . . . well, it might have possibly a little to do with it. But not enough to warrant pop quizzes.

Using '=' signs in an entry = laziness.

I use = signs all the time because I am a lazy, lazy girl. ♥ =!

And yeah, I totally agree. I love LA Story. It's just such a perfect movie and portrait of LA... or, at least, the glossy, pretty side of LA (barring the freeway shootings, of course).

I also agree that Media Law = teh suck. I just can't get myself to read it because I've gone to every class and I can't see anything that is different from what my teacher said. I'm sure I'm missing something or other but it just bores me to tears.

You want to learn French?

www.bbc.co.uk/learning

I heard about the website while I was watching the BBC in Switzerland, and I've checked it out. Major, major thumbs-up for it so now you have no excuse not to learn French.

"Chinatown" is one of my favorite movies ever ever ever. Polanski is incredible; if you haven't seen his other movies, check them out (Rosemary's Baby, A Knife in the Water, The Pianist). What did you think of it?

[splendourific]

I have seen Rosemary's Baby... it was one of those films my friends and I (being the sick weirdos we are) loved when we were younger. My friend's dad had it on tape and we would watch it sometimes just to get a kick.

I haven't watched The Pianist yet, however... I want to, I just haven't found the time yet.

Oh, and I really enjoyed Chinatown. My reporting classes keep referencing it because it has to do with LA and stuff so it was nice to finally get somewhat of a feel for it, even if I didn't get to see the whole movie.

Bonjour! Yes for Frennnnch. You should join my French class, cuz that would be cool.

Hehehe. Shouldn't you say "oui for French?" You really ought to teach me french. That'd be fun.

So- I happened to type in "without you, today's emotions would be the scurf of yesterday's" and your LJ came up. I laughed to myself. That happened to be my favourite line of the movie. Though- I was a bit confused on the entire idea of a scurf being the emotions of yesterday without you, being as a scurf is dandruff or body soil. *shrug*
Sorries for my random outburst of a random comment but I wanted to at least say that to someone. So...you go and learn french it is a beautiful language and a beutiful country. Ciao Bella- Liz*
