thursday 22/10/09: golden AK-47.

9:56 wakeup. made some porridge for breakfast while preparing for another day of nothing. sent a big ol' video file through yousendit which was fun in a not fun way. watched some more mccabe and mrs. miller but it's hard to get through. besides warren beatty it's just not all that captivating. but hey. then i watched 12 angry men which was pretty amazing. i was telling ro later that night how while glengarry glenross was 5 actors firing on all cylinders, 12 angry men is 12 actors firing on all cylinders. seriously amazing. watched the special features then went upstairs and made some pesto/pepper/cheese which was nice. eventually i headed back downstairs to watch solaris. weed, mark and jord joined me and it was excellent. steven soderbergh can really bring the goods.

after that i made a muffin with tomato and cheese. and also another one of the same. both were okay. i came back downstairs and started watching 'be here to love me', a doco about townes van zandt.

it's at this point i have to ponder upon how funny it is most of my friends thought i was moving up into a crazy hectic busy life full of excitement and whatnot. truth is, that happens every month or so for about a week and the rest is what you read here. food preparation and film watching. if you're lucky, i might start an exercise routine and go into detail about that!

i walked out of my room to find ro and joe who joined me for more of the doco. practice began not long after that and was probably the shortest we've ever had. ran through the set once, out of order. after that i watched more of the TVZ doco and then ro, weed and i headed to the rsl for pool. i think i won every game i played. that's a good average for the night i'd say. i was playing horribly last week, looks like i've got my pool mojo back. we headed home after that where i finished the TVZ doco (amazing...track it and his music down asap) and watched lord of war which is just finishing. i was pretty impressed with lord of war. the ending pulled no punches in terms of bleak realism which was impressive. funny to think i avoided the film for so long because i'd heard it wasn't so great. glad my dad and aj convinced me otherwise. the golden AK-47 was kind of cool too. also most of my friends seem to hate nicholas cage but i like him. so ner.

until tomorrow, bye.
