Snippets

I tried to start an entry on the history of my glasses, but it got away from me so I'm trying to get it right a little later. I'm only saying this, because I just wanted to confirm that I'm still here, at this blog. The couple of weeks left of Fall 2009 semester after Thanksgiving Break did not leave much time for anything not absolutely required for classes, so I haven't written anything it seems.

This break will be different, hopefully. I want to use it to become more confident in my abilities as a writer, since English classes seem to be about all I'm good for. So far, I've been slowly and carefully unwinding from this past, hellish semester. I've watched like, four or five movies since last Wednesday, it's been glorious.

The latest movie I watched was that art film about Bob Dylan called "I'm Not There," that Lindsay made me watch. She is in love with that guy, as well as Christian Bale, who was in the movie for a while as one representation of Dylan. I know relatively little about Bob Dylan, but Lindsay filled me in on the details and it was a lovely, if strange, type of movie. Here are my favorite songs from it. The second one made me fall out of my chair, it was such a gloriously covered song.





Anyway, I had better finish cleaning the guest room for my grandparents, who are coming for Christmas either tomorrow or Wednesday, I can't remember.
