Tomorrow I get to paint my parents bathroom. I'm pretty excited. I think part of it seeing something accomplished. I get a lot of satisfaction when I complete a project or school assignment and the latter I can't do anymore. Also, my dad is pretty anal when it comes to paintin and thinks that I can't paint good enough. SO! Tomorrow I don't have to listen to him tell me I can't paint by the edges because I will get paint on them...when I don't get paint on them.
I cleaned out my desk tonight and am giving Ben all of my things that I don't need anymore because I am not in school. It's kind of sad. I miss school lately. I miss staying up late writing papers. I miss sitting at Starbucks during the winter time, drinking something yummy and attempting to read my school books but never really succeeding. I think what I really miss is learning.

Yeah, but you can still learn something. You can take up a new subject and get a textbook to go along with it. Although, without the pressure of a dealine and whatnot, there is just no motivation to study. At least that's how it is for me. But you're much better at school than me.
Ok - so this doesn't have a lot to do with your post, but whatever. :) W. was alright. It was a little slow and felt long. I had read reviews that it was surprisingly less critical of Bush than everyone had expected and I would agree with that statement. Stone pretty much portrayed Bush as a man who is just trying to impress his father and never feels adequate enough, which may be true, I don't know. It wasn't horrible, so I wouldn't say flop. It might be a box office flop, but that doesn't always equal quality flop. I think Josh Brolin did an incredible job and some of the impersonations of other important people are dead on. Thandie Newton is Condoleezza Rice and you would never have recognized that it was Newton. I'd recommend the film, but more as a rental - no need to see it on the big screen - and see it when you're in the mood for a thinking piece, it's not a movie you can half pay attention to.
