Febvies

I had a really angry dream last night- Which was weird, because I seldom get that agitated in my dreams. Crying, yes-although that too is rare- but not full-on shouting and violence like last night.

Perhaps I could blame these on the books and movies recently, but I'm not sure if that's it.
The thing about waking up from an angry dream is that the anger doesn't really carry forward but you're stunned and just slower than usual, and it doesn't feel good.

The former link is interesting whilst the latter is plain ridiculous and hence, hilarious.
I feel really bad for the guy since he had so much faith in his invention
But you gotta admit, it makes you crack up ahaha

There is always something interesting, something funny, something new.
This is why school is tiring but fun.
This is why, dry as it can be, it can never be all bad- To me, at least.

Currently,
I have only a little practice test and a few more assignments to go.
The last test was over today,
So I suppose that means that I can take it a little easier for the next two weeks.

Whew.
I think I did pretty okay for the first term of 'hell-year'!
Along with SYF, the second CCA I'm joining, and the two volunteering opportunities I've signed up for, PW will be the next onslaught.
All that will kick in soon enough, in April.
So that leaves me with another month of concentrating on SYF and PW individual research- In other words, I have another month of honeymoon to go, before all hell breaks loose.
Sounds fun eh?
I am genuinely looking forward to all that, be that as it may.


Aaaaaand
Now that I'm done going on about the things you aren't interested in,
Here's a little list.

-Kingsman: The Secret Service
I quite liked this movie- Predictable, sprinkled with American humor and action packed, it's something you can switch off onto after a long day, when all you want is to space out and smile at something simple.

-Ted
Yes. I've been wanting to watch this for a long time now, and I'm reaaalllllyyy glad to say that it has not disappointed me. At all.
Crude humor-yes-cheap at times- but nonetheless funny.
It's just so inappropriate and sweet and cute that you can't not love it- Although, I do have to say that choosing not to watch this with the family was one of the best choices I've ever made in my life (haha).
It makes some rather good points, and I really do agree with my Lit tutor that comedy is to be taken seriously, for it is but an intelligent way of expressing one's opinions. Perhaps this makes cheap humor meaningless, but one thing about humor for the sake of humor is that it is sometimes rather funny. (Note: Sometimes. Sometimes.)

-Ted 2
This was still a rather good movie despite me feeling like the divorce was just there for 'Ted 2" to take place. Again, good points were made, and it was understandable that jokes in this weren't as good as the first movie. Still, continuations of movies rarely end well, and I think this movie did a pretty great job with regards to that, so that was a plus.

-San Andreas
I had high hopes for this one. And yes, it didn't fail my expectations, though after a while it did feel a little like obstacles were being put in place just so the movie can go on. It was like a "They're gonna mak- Oh wait. AHHHHH. OH NOO! Oh. Okay. They're fi- WAIT. NOOOOOOOOO"
Yeah.
Excuse me for my lack of a better explanation.

-Taken
This one though.
I really really liked it!
"I told you I would find you."
I just- I just started clapping my hands in glee when the guy beat every single one of them up after saying that one line. Also when he electrocuted the other person to death. Also- Every scene really.
You would think that after meeting someone like my Lit tutor I would not think another old man to be cool, but no.
Old people can be pretty badass, and the guy in Taken is just insanity and fatherly love meshed together in one lovely witch's concoction.

-Hitman: Agent 47
It looked interesting enough, but it turned out to be a dull and predictable ride after.
I guess certain ideas are too overused to be good enough in a movie anymore- Unless you have great character development and humor, and something original amidst all that standard plot points.

-Guradians of the Galaxy
I heard great things about this one, and while yes, it was good and all.. It was.. Again,predictable, with jokes I didn't find funny, and it was just boring to me.
The makeup, effects and acting were all rather cool though, so I'm not dissing this movie or anything. I just didn't find it original enough to have my attention hooked by it.

Hmmmm
I think that's it.

Right now I'm trying to complete three short reads before I do my February Wrap-up for books (yeah we're going with that mainstream name because this person here isn't creative enough to come up with a better name for the monthly lists. Feebs maybe, for 'February Reads', or Febvies, but it just sounds plain weird doesn't it.)
And yeah I don't care that technically these short reads are under March because I just can't stand not completing what I set out to do.

That's it folks.
I shall be back with pretty much the same brain and heart, only a few days older-by the time I publish the next post.
