Anyone who knows me knows i watch a TON of movies. Thanks Blockbuster. I get 5 free rentals a week from work and i get the movies the week before they come out. I usually have at least one movie every week that I am newly obsessed with. My obsession fades then when i get a new favorite (or 2).
Well, this week I <3 Watching the Detectives. Its a smaller movie, with Cillian Murphy (love those blue eyes) and Lucy Liu. Its fun, light hearted, and I think its hilarious. I am watching it for the 2nd time and still find myself laughing at things. I do think, however, that I may be prone to liking it becuase Cillian's character owns a small, quirky video store, where all of his friends work and hang out, watching movies and talking about them. Slightly similar to what I do at work, except I work at a huge mind-numbing, chain, but the people I work with are awesome nonetheless.
The movie is my kind of humor and Lucy Liu plays a fun, crazy girl who likes to get all the adventure out of life that she can. I love it. The things she does for fun are awesome. I wish I was her.
I don't think this film is for everyone. As i have learned from working at a video store, very few have the same taste for movies that I do.

Sitting in class doing absolutely nothing
I am taking 2 summer classes, both of them are electives for my major. The classes are only 4 weeks long (4 hours a day, monday-thursday) so I thought it wouldn't be that bad. My first class isn't, its web design and it is easy and fun. I enjoy working on the projects and the 2 hour class flys by. The second class....
is not so fun. Its a networking class, which wouldn't be so bad, except my partner sucks. Actually hes ridicoulously computer savy, which makes the class SO annoying for me. I'm pretty sure he knows more than the teacher and feels the need to show off that knowledge ALL THE TIME. He has little-to-no social skills which makes him difficult to deal with on a personal level. He does all the projects ahead of time and I have learned nothing, and the class is half over.
Today he finished the project before class even started and now I'm just sitting here doing nothing. It annoys the crap out of me and I would not mind the class except we do have 2 tests, and i have not learned a damn thing for those tests. Oh well. I'm going home to play with my dog.
