I just finished "The Diary of Anne Frank"; a short film broadcast on BBC in 2009.
I didn't truly know who this Anne Frank girl was. I understood that she was a 13 year old Jewish girl who hid away from the Nazis during WWII with a few other people, but I never knew she wanted to grow up as a writer! She even started writing in a diary at the same age I was when I began recording my history! Crazy!
I also got reminded that she and the entire group of people (besides her father) were killed either on their way to one of the concentration camps or after a while of being trapped in one.
That stuff is dramatically disturbing and heart-wrenching. I almost cried when they showed the characters coming downstairs and the movie would pause, telling the persons fate, until moving on to the next character. For a TV film, I give it two thumbs up. If you can make me, at least, ALMOST cry, you've done a great job.
Sometimes, on sad parts in shows or a movie, I'll shake my head and think it is way too corny for theaters. However, a GOOD sad scene will make me feel for each character or towards the one who is dying, etc. I guess it matters when you either talk about that characters life or you get to know who they really are throughout the movie to the point you almost think you've known them your whole existence. And then, once the character has captured your heart, the producer will RIP YOU APART by KILLING that character you loved oh-so dearly and you are CRUSHED and wanting to take REVENGE but you CAN'T... because it is a movie and/or show.
Well, what about a book???
If you're an excellent writer, then of COURSE you can have the readers fall in love with the characters before they become depressed over their favorite person's loss!
Speaking of writing, I got an A on my second test essay. :) Totally radical, am I right???
Another totally radical thing... I'M IN ENGL 101, BABY!!!!!
The only bummer thing about THAT is the class doesn't start until 7:30 AM.
Do you know what time I'd have to be up at???
5 in the morning...
I had a panic attack after realizing that.
ALSO... There is a 2 hour gap between ENGL 101 and my MATH 085.
Maybe that's a good thing? Get 2 hours of rest before jumping to Algebra II crap?
We'll see how it goes...
Anyway, LET'S TALK ABOUT MASON REAL QUICK! :D
I got to talk to him yesterday after his 2 hour post. We stayed up from 9-11:30 Western Time. It was wonderful to hear his voice again and his cute giggles. He said he missed all of that from me, too.
He got a sick ass computer!! I'm super jealous, bros. His computer is an Envy. His password is his fingerprint.
...
My computer is a piece of JUNK compared to that!!! My mom was going to buy me the Envy but my dumbass had to go look for something else!!
... Mothers know best.
I hope I'll become one of those mothers.
... MEH! I shouldn't complain too much. It is just ONE more feature. His computer is PRACTICALLY the same as mine except for that ONE... REALLY... AWESOME... FEATURE (in which I don't have).
Damn.
I'm spoiled :/
I don't enjoy thinking like that; where if someone has something more advanced than what I have, I need something better than theirs.
Jesus.
... NOT THE POINT! The point I'm trying to make is that I had a lovely time (well-needed time) talking with my honey :)
Today was an alright day. Nothing to bicker about. I'm happy for my ENGL test essay grade and I feel good on my ITAL test that I took this morning. I hope those feelings don't doubt me when I get the results!! Fingers crossed!!
