I got a late start on the post thing today because I wasn't actually planning to write one since I'm sure there's only so much Amy babble you can tolerate at one time. But then I saw this video, and I decided to write one anyway. Because it is relevant to my life in at least two ways. Also it is funny. But there are expletives, so beware your virgin ears, or whatever.
So I mentioned to you that I had started watching this show, King 2 Hearts. At the moment, it is a close second to City Hunter in my List of Shows I Heartily Enjoy That Are Also Really Well-Made. The premise is a little strange (mostly because it's about the Korean royal family, when I wasn't even aware that Korea had a royal family), but what makes it so good is Lee SeungGi, the main guy who is (well, was) the co-host of Strong Heart. Maybe it's just because I can't resist a man in a beret. Or one of these:
Anyway, he's cool in the style of LMH, and I'm not even exaggerating when I say that. He's super good at making you simultaneously love and hate his character (because he is a self-centered son of a gun, but he has good moments). Anyway, I'm enjoying it but it just started airing so it will be weeks and weeks before I'm able to finish. Which is okay.
12:45 - I was going to do that crane legend assignment for Literature for Adolescents but the chair of our group already sent us all an email with a rather long, super well thought out legend that he wrote all about this crane's journey to heaven through acts of godly benevolence or something, and now I've lost my will to try to one-up him. It was a pretty good story. All we have to do now is shorten it (it took me fifteen minutes to read, and we only have five to present it). I'm also all for adding an element of hilarity to it, but I don't want to be too overbearing. I already one-upped his music video suggestions (Knockout met with general consent), so maybe I should back down.
1:02 - My friend Kailea came by with a whole bunch of fliers for a politician who's coming to UCM to speak tomorrow. I felt bad saying I couldn't go (I have class) but to be honest politics have never interested me and it is almost impossible for me to feign enthusiasm.
1:33 - I'm drawing a storyboard of this graphic novel venture, and even though it's slow work, it is pretty fun. I've never done something like this before so I'm sure it's all very rough and clumsy, but I feel good about it myself.
2:30 - Today is not a dance day, but a dramatic day. I have a playlist called 'sad and awesome'. It is inspiring when I'm drawing things.
2:54 - I decided to write that legend anyway, just so I have something to show when I go to that meeting tonight. It is filled with wonderful morals and a just sense of karma and comeuppance. It also involves imagining a crane and stork to be the same bird, but that's not too much of a stretch of the mind, so hopefully all will be well.
4:28 - I went to Wal-Mart today, and it is hot as anything outside. I just assumed the AC in my car wasn't working again, so I didn't think to try it until I was halfway back, sweating like a pig. And it worked. Life is tragic sometimes.
