Updatey goodness. Or not

My first exam went okay - I know I made a few irritating mistakes and there was a nasty moment when I thought a whole third of it was going to implode in front of my eyes (it turned out to be a combination of a misplaced minus sign and me not being able to read. GO TALLULAH GO.) My next one is on Friday. The wall to my right is still covered with A4 pages of notes, but the Akira poster next to them takes up slightly more space. I feel this is good and represents a healthy work-life balance. Or possibly work-fandom balance.
Damn it,
br_roleplay is making me flail... okay, everything is making me flail at the moment. But I wish I was interested in playing a less-high profile character. Or that I had a backup choice after Shinji. *watches nervously for claims post* Or that I knew who the mods were after so at least I could stop worrying about that. Geez ^^

blackeyedpotato that I'm doing WITHOUT BEING TAGGED OMG:
Once tagged by this entry, the assignment is to list 10 movies: your 5 Favorites & your 5 Guilty Pleasures. Then, pick 5 of your friends and tag them. No tag backs. This explanation should be included.
Favourites: (More or less)
1. Akira
2. Battle Royale
3. Spirited Away
4. The History Boys
5. Chicago
Guilty Pleasures:
1. Mulan
2. Little Shop Of Horrors (I don't think it should be a guilty pleasure, but it's a silly musical about a man-eating plant, so I may be in the minority here ^^)
3. Clueless
4. Cruel Intentions
5. Baz Luhrman's Romeo + Juliet
(To be honest, I can't see a great deal of difference between the two lists in terms of content.)
(My movie tastes are, then, musicals, chick flicks with vicious teenagers, and random Japanese stuff.)
Ah, the coffee is reinvigorating me. Coffee's so great ^^
Damn it,

Ahem.
Yeah, I know - I should really stop thinking about exams AT ALL once they're over ^^
I hope it will be. I have more info about it all now, though, so I'm a bit calmer.

Date: 2007-01-18 09:33 pm (UTC)Oh wow. Oh wow! I've been looking at the pic for like the past half an hour. Oh wow! I really like the way you chose to do it, with only Yama's shadow, and both the blood and Kai's face shape look fine to me ^^ I really like it.
It looks like there's writing kind of in the background - what is it?

Date: 2007-01-20 07:54 pm (UTC)Musicals rock - and yes, I have a video of a stage version. It used to be my number-one musical - my brother and I did a great rendition of Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer, oh yes :D
I haven't seen Mulan 2 - I heard it wasn't that good; have you seen it?
What's coded canal?

Date: 2007-01-20 08:17 pm (UTC)Aww :D
I've seen Mulan 2 and I think it's ok. I wouldn't say it's worse than the first part.
Canal + is a tv channel, and by 'coded' I meant that you need a decoder to be able to watch anything on it. I had no decoder, but I wanted to see Leonardo. That's why. xD
