WARP class is officially over for me. What a relief. Now all there is left to do is wait… Wait for my second semester classes to get approved. Looks like all the good classes are taken: communication design, intro to photo, painting… I hear figure drawing is open though. That should be fun. It’s times like these that I remember the joy of being an artist. Things are good again. Homework is down to a minimum, I have to time focus on martial arts, movies, books, family, games, and everything else fun.
Speaking of movies, I saw Lon (The Professional) yesterday for the first time and I enjoyed it very much. Can’t believe it took me nine years to finally see the blasted thing. Next on my list of movies to see: Band of Brothers disc 4, and Hitchcock’s Rear Window. Ah the blessings of film.
Turkey Day is tomorrow. Don’t exactly know what the fam is doing but I know it will involve lots of loud spanish music, plenty of Cola, and drunk uncles arguing over policies in Colombia or whatever is in the spanish newspapers this week. Deja vu every year. Don’t mind the pumpkin pie though. Sweeeeet.
It was the international cut you saw, right? For years the only version available was the American release, which is about a half-hour shorter than the full release. And lemme tell you, that half-hour makes or breaks the movie. Hmm, nevermind, I’m guessing that’s what you saw since the American released was called The Professional while the international release went as Lon. Right-o!
Don’t focus on those marital arts yet… you’re a little young, eh? Haha.
Unfortunately it was the American version that I saw. When I looked up The Professional on imdb the only one they had was Len. But now I will make an effort to watch the original. Besides, the cover art looks awesome.
Oh man, those 30 minutes make a world of difference, elevating the from a cool Boom! Boom! movie to something far more interesting.
as i learn more about me, i also find that i need to give myself a break. there’s always going to be someone who won’t get me because i can’t be pegged in any racial stereotype
