Strange to Meet You
9/4/08
I woke up well rested this morning for the first time this week. This is for two reasons:
1. I had the easiest schedule available today and the only homework I had was to study for a Human Anatomy Quiz.
2. I didn’t study for that Human Anatomy quiz.
I woke up so early I even had breakfast, which I recently calculated was something I do about somewhere between five to ten percent of the time. The past few days haven’t been the best example of this, because I had breakfast at senior retreat as well as this morning, which causes a huge rift in the statistics of the whole thing. Time and sleep are really things cutting into my breakfast hours, but I’m really trying to do this every morning. If only they had those Cheerios Bars available somewhere around here, I would probably eat every morning because that product has all the traits of a good meal: fast, and delicious. I don’t know where I was going with that. Basically, sleeping is awesome.
When I got home, I checked out the new trailer for Kevin Smith’s next flick Zack and Miri Make a Porno. And maybe it’s just the trailer that put me in this mind, but it sort of seemed like Smith was conforming to more modern Frat Pack comedy standards. But I’m not one of those people who believe Smith should be making Jay & Silent Bob movies at the Quickstop for the rest of his life, and I do like some of the Apatow productions that the trailer reminded me of so my impression was not a bad one. It’s weird that I almost took the movie’s lack of amateurish look as a negative point (especially since Clerks 2 looked way cleaner than his older movies, and I enjoyed that too). Overall, I’m looking forward to it based on the 2 minutes of the movie that I saw.
And now I have a bunch of homework, but instead I’m just re-watching a bunch of Jim Jarmusch shorts instead for the time being.
