Sep. 14th, 2005 05:41 pmWell, I don't have to work on Friday, and that makes me happy as I'll be able to take the two hours between the end of school and show band and just go downtown and get something to eat, rather than rushing back and forth all over the place. And I got paid today, so I'll actually be able to afford lunch. Although knowing me I will still be a cheapass about it anyway.
Had senior portraits taken today, most of which turned out fairly decent. Yay for very unusual occurrences.
I've been having waaaaay too much fun with my English homework these past few days, largely due to having wasted much time these past few months on the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory boards. I keep relating the various literary facets the book is droning on about (character development, plot structure, commercial and literary value) back to Tim Burton movies, and often to Charlie in particular. TIM BURTON IMPROVED IT, DAMMIT. He gave it an ending. He gave Wonka character development, turning him from a "plot-point machine" static character-archetype into a dynamic character. In general, Tim Burton is fantastic because, through use of wierd human protagonists rather than the stock character of The Eccentric, he can make very wierd movies without resorting to the cheap trick of not resolving the plot.
I don't feel like expounding upon my life at any greater length, as I have much in the way of homework to occupy my time, and I'm still in zero period.
