things.





As usual, I've been watching a lot of movies lately but recently I've been seeing a lot of good movies which is quite rare, including the Swedish vampire movie (and I am not a vampire fan) Let the Right One In. Everyone should go see it and I am actually thinking about making it my first movie purchase ever because I just want to look at it's prettiness all day.
Songs From the Second Floor is another unbelievably pretty Swedish movie that is basically amazing. I plan to watch every one of these.
Until then, I'm super excited for some more bad movie-ing this Valentine's. I haven't checked with Evan but I think he'll be alright with celebrating by way of the Friday the 13th remake, or watching Tremors and making me stay awake, or WILD ZERO!!!!!!, or all three Resident Evils, or all of the above because I am a super romantic..... if you're reading this, Gummibear, let me know how you also feel about flashlight tag, Funfetti, and being silly.



I've also been looking at pretty things and thinking about what is really important in the vast scheme of things. Any pretty or enjoyable little things anyone can recommend would be appreciated.

I am so happy; you know you're lucky when you're contemplating going to Paris... hopefully soon I will be in place of this little A.

DOUG!! How's life after graduation?

Really I'm just interested in anything that you find particularly beautiful that usually is taken for granted/goes unnoticed. I feel pretty disconnected from the world right now and noticing little things like the adorable way geese flock together and graze or the puke-green 1970's floral patterning on my dinnerware makes me feel more connected somehow, like the world is made up of these supposedly insignificant things, including ourselves, but when you think about it they're pretty amazing.

If that makes any sense. I dunno. I just like pretty things.
