well the advertising class i went to tonight does look promising, it turns out. it seems like we’re going to cover all the things i should probably learn, since i’m thinking of going into advertising, and in fact the professor does work for an ad agency in LA. and she’s pretty young and down to earth, so it may just be a good class after all.

plus another observation making it okay; if i were not interested in my future, or didn’t care about having a slacker major, i would (or i guess i should have a while ago) switch my major to communications. that school is 80 percent girls, i swear, and the majority of them cute. it’s bizarre. as i walked into the comm. building to go to this class, i felt as if i shouldn’t even be there, like i was sneaking into a girls’ dorm or sorority house or something. it was just so densely filled with girls i was intimidated. tempted to run out screaming, i somehow made it to my class, which was also well over two-thirds female and many of them cute. so this might not be so bad a way to spend the beginning of thursday evenings after all — learn about my chosen profession (potentially) while in a room full of comm chicks. i guess it could be worse.

okay, complete change of subject: i got a dozen new dvd’s for christmas, so i’m still trying to work through watching them and their many special features. it took me a couple days to get through the phantom menace stuff, and i even postponed the commentary until a later date because i was star warred out. so tonight i watched being john malkovitch, which is a weird but cool movie. but have you seen the extra stuff on this disc? it’s so weird! the “intimate portrait of background driving” and “interview with spike jonze” both had me utterly baffled. i’m not sure if spike jonze is brilliant or just scary. i suppose he could be both. like me, once i get those black contact lenses like the guy from limp bizkit.

yeah, i know, i should have let that one go yesterday, but i am a big dumb idiot, after all.
