Quick summary of stuff
Aug. 25th, 2005 06:27 pmHave just got back from London - I met up with some people from the university musicals society and we went to see The Lion King musical in the West End!
( Lion King rambling )
I then spent an extremely uncomfortable night on a friend's living room floor. I had a sleeping bag, but the zip had been busted so it wouldn't close, plus we (not I) decided to start watching Freaky Friday at two a.m and then fell asleep in front of it... well, those people who are able to fall asleep when there's a movie blaring two feet away did... about two-thirds of the way through the movie, I realised I couldn't sleep, realised everyone else was asleep, and switched off the damn thing. Then still couldn't sleep so curled up in an armchair. I think I had about four hours sleep altogether... hasn't caught up with me yet.
On Tuesday night, Mum and I watched the remake of the movie The Manchurian Candidate. It was great, and it was fascinating to see how the two movies and the book differ from each other. Whoever made the remake obviously respected the original movie - and I want to hug angsty, confused Denzil Washington. And they put in flashback-y goodness! There should be more eerie flashbacks in movies.
Still angsty and grumpy about uni, but my thoughts are too unformed to type up, not to mention I am running out of time on the Internet. Ta ta for now, mi amigos. (I'm sure some Spanish speaker on my Flist will point out that that's been misused, but meh.)
