Of Harry & Errol
Thursday, 16 January 2003 21:05Be-jaysus it's been awhile since I've been able to sit down at a computer for any amount of time. And yet strangely, I've been coping quite well... Spoke to Sony today and they said that my notebook has a motherboard fault, so hopefully I'll get my computer back files intactamundo! I cannot believe I just used the word intactamundo...
Panicked yesterday in order to get a presentation about detente ready for today. Detente is one of the few things I know niente about and so I had to like find articles and read and stuff, all that stuff you're meant to do at uni, apparently. Only to find out that someone else was doing the presentation and mine wasn't even until next week! Huh!
And I could've spent that precious time last night doing some of my film essay which is for tomorrow. Instead I'm back at the sucky 24hr computer room to do it now. I've also got serious pains in my hands from the incessant guitar playing I've been doing the last few days. My back hurts from the way I was sitting (for any guitar players out there: sitting on your bed, feet curled up under you is not recommended by Clare), I've got two claws to rival Chandler Bing last time he played Ms Pac-Man, the tips of my fingers just ache and I've got typing to do now... Am babbling...
"What makes Hollywood 'Hollywood'?" Can anyone think of a more vague, annoying question than that? OK, so we have to talk in reference to one motion picture of our choice (The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938)) but still... It's so vague and all I really want to do is yammer on about how fab Errol Flynn was. And apparently, Robin Hood is just a Western in disguise. Or something.
But, yay! We have a date for HP V!! I know it's quite far away but at least we know it's coming! Although on 'Richard & Judy' today they had the editor of Heat magazine and some literary woman on with some kids to all ponder what might be held within the near-sacred pages of OotP. They were all for R/Hr and it really irritated me that this literary chick was like "It will happen. It has to." No reasons why, just a sort of 'because I want it to' sort of thing. Only Richard Madeley tried to argue the H/Hr and guess what- they just shouted him down. And that's the first time I've ever agreed with that git. Probably the last time too. It just made me laugh the way the ship war was even entered into there.
Must go- Errol awaits and I have a strict policy of never making Flynn wait!
Stay lucky all!
