Lunar New Year vacation… YES! I suddenly feel the appreciation for Chinese who made this vacation. The week before the break… which is now… is just horrible. I’ve never had this much homework and projects. Wednesday I had 7 assignments + project due, Thursday I had relatively less work to do (but slept at 12), and now, I have 7 again for today! @!WR@FSJgq£%1TGS!!!!!! Though I’ve been loving the teachers (especially you Ms. P.) and the school, this week I can’t love them!!! Anyway, back to my point. I find it pain-relieving to think about what I’m going to do over the break when working hard – and I had a blog posting assignment to do – so I guess I will write about it.
1. Band Practice.
Yes. Dennis playing bass! hahaah. I’ve been practicing bass for a while, and last week Jae Lee and Eric asked me to come over to their band practice. So someday during the break, I’m going there! WOOOWOOO! We’re playing Time Is Running Out by Muse, which the vocal will definitely suffer from the high notes. Due to this event, I listened to this song over 40 times this week, and it seemed like a perfect song for me for those miserable days; I was running out of time at 11 P.M when doing my hwmk!
2. Watch Movies.
Well. Yes, I was busy, but I still talked to my friends. Last… or last last night, I was talking to Angie J. about movies and music. We started off with a conversation about the song, “Gabriel’s Oboe” that the ensemble I am in played in the cafeteria lounge to raise money for Haiti. Then we talked about the composer, Ennio Morricone, and then I told her to watch the movie, Legend of 1900, which had Morricone’s music in. (She went all crazy that I reminded her of movies that she has to watch. haha! And I went crazy that she haven’t seen watch Avatar yet.)
(Interrupting thoughts)
I find Morricone’s music really interesting. It is not the typical New Age genre music, yet it is not a Classic music. It is in between, and I find this very good, because it is not boring like classic, or too light in depth or sad like any other New Age musics. My favorite is Playing Love from Legend of 1900. You should definitely watch the movie also!
(End of Digression! :] )
Then she said to me, “Dennis, if I lend you Cinema Paradiso DVD, would you watch it?” and since I LOVE slow and boring movies (such as River Runs Thru It), and because I was going to watch it someday, I said, YEA! Honestly, I thought Angie would forget to bring it (mainly because I always forget about those promises), but hey, she brought it the school. (Maybe this is why she gets good grades?)
As well as Cinema Paradiso, Angie suggested that I watch Invictus. I am not sure about the title, but I could always ask Angie again.
3. Sleepover
Dongmyung, Yongkyu, Jaeook and I planned to have a sleepover. Yes, we’re going to play games, watch a movie, make some prank calls at night, and all that. But I am not sure if we are actually gonna have one because last winter break, we decided on having one, but no body bothered to schedule the time.
4. Hmwk.
Unfortunately, I have hmwk to do over the break. In fact, I have 7 already stacked up in my agenda. But I am going to test a new thingt; I am going to do my hmwk on Saturday and Sunday, and be liberated from it! (of course, last Summer and Winter break I thought about doing the same thing.) I’m not sure how this plan is going to work out, but I’ll give it a try.
Oh, I think this is about it. I’m not sure how intellectual this blog posting is… but well, I actually wrote something!
