tristan & isolde
Merry Christmas everyone!! Hope everyone's got their Santa radar on. Last I checked NORAD, Santa was in Florida. How exciting! He goes for the old people first, apparently.I woke up this morning past noon and found out that my parents had gone to a Japanese supermarket far, far away. So Jen and I decide to watch "Love Actually," and it turns out that the cute little kid in it plays little Tristan in "Tristan and Isolde." I'm really excited about that movie, and I'm not quite sure why. I think it's because I'm sick of complicated plot twists and profound character insights. Traditional stories stick with the love and greed, right and wrong, and all the black and whites that we lack nowadays. Modern-day stories always need that extra something. Show me more, screams the public, and the movie moguls stick in the visual effects and extra sentimental drama.
Speaking of showing more, I've decided that I have nothing more to show, and that workshopping is turning me into nothing but a performing monkey. With that said, I've decided to drop creative writing and stick with reading 6 thousand-page Chinese novels. It's academic suicide, but I think I'll have fun doing it. Ed said it was already closed up, so I'll have to try my luck with it once the semester begins.
Now that it's Christmas, it's time to start thinking about New Year's Resolutions. I've come up with a few:
1. Get coked-out skinny like Nicole Ritchie.
2. Think of a better bridal march than the "Darth Vader theme" or "Past the Point of No Return" from Phantom of the Opera.
3. Become a world-class pickpocket.
4. Go blonde.
5. Solve all of Puzzle Donkey.
And a final wedding-related note (I promise I won't talk about weddings for a whole month): Jennifer, "Someday my prince will come" is TOO a great song for the bridesmaids. And, no, the implication is NOT that heavy. It's hopeful.
