"waking life" music: Lyala - Time to Fly
mood: fine

did anyone watch waking life? my chemH teacher, adam rosenfeld, showed that in our class one day. (this was of course, toward the end of the schoolyear when attendance was almost optional.) i never watched it in its entirety, or actually watched it carefully, but i saw it at the library the other day and decided to pick it up. so i spent a good 2 hours watching the film carefully, noting the details in the scene transitions and putting up the subtitles to make sure i was getting every word. that movie is trippy, artistic, and beautiful. i like movies that exercise my mind.

reading david sedaris now. the good thing about him is that you can read his book and another novel simultaneously (well, not LITERALLY with each book in each hand) without losing your train of imagination. that's what i hate most about reading more than one book at the same time. your imagination loses its flow as you switch from one book to the next. in fact, the only time i ever read more than one book is to fully finish the second book in one sitting before going back to the first. even then i feel dissatisfied, like i havent gotten the most from that book. so yes, here i am. buried in my books. talk about a listless summer.
