"It's your latest and greatest" - Col.
Yup, the grade report came in in its wholeness. Shall we see how Irish did?

English composition (aka Engl 101) - A
Introduction into logic (aka Phil 110) - A
Introduction into theatre (aka Thea 170) - A
Religion and culture (aka Rel 114) - B+
Latin 122 - F

*Whoe!* Where did that come from?
That, my dear friends, comes from that class being completely pass fail based on the exit exam. That grade means I utterly failed the exit exam, not at all to my surprise. What shall I do now? I'm going to change languages. Start completely from scratch.

*grins* Well, it seems that some are liking my movie choices.
Willow starring Val Kilmer, Joanne Whalley, Warwick Davis, Billy Barty, Jean Marsh, and Kevin Pollock, directed by Ron Howard, story by George Lucas, 1988, PG.
I have been watching this movie since I was two. No, I am not kidding either.
Willow, a Nelwen (about the size of a dwarf), finds a Daikini (human) baby in the river. This is the Sacred Princess Elor who is destined to overthrow, "the evil queen...Bavamorda *heeh heeh heeh*" (Rool). To help him in his task to take the child to safety in Tir Aslen is Madmartigan ("I am the greatest swordsman who ever lived" aka, the warrior), Rool and Franjean (F - *points* "We go that way, to the lake!"
R- *shakes head, points in other direction* "That way."
F - *looks, scowls, gets down in R's face* "You are drunk, and when you are drunk you forget that I Am In Charge."
R - *almost simultanious* "You are in charge. *pause* So which way do we go?"
F & R - *pointing in direction R pointed out* "That Way!"
the Brownies), and Razel (a powerful sorceress
R - "That's Razel??!?"
F - "I don't know! I...I...I was expecting something more...Grand...less...less..."
R - "Fuzzy?"
F - "Fuzzy.")
My mom was shocked and somewhat horrified to find out one day while she was watching the movie that I can quote the whole thing spot on. While I'm not watching it, not paying attention, and when I'm buried in a really good book.
*heh heh heh*

Yes, so I went a little off my usual track yesterday. I guess you could say that the human race as a whole just got to me yesterday morning. I'm not going to say I'm over it, because I'm not, but I don't think I'm going to have to worry about that today.

In other news:
finally started reading this book I've been meaning to get to by Barbara Hambly. It's been in my room for about two years now, and I haven't read it because I kept looking at it and it's sequel saying "I don't have the first book in the trilogy, I can't read it." (Sam - "Even though the moron Knew it wasn't a trilogy."
Fred - "She just couldn't seem to get it through her thick skull that there were only two books.")
But I finally picked it up and, just as I knew I would when I originally got it, I utterly love and adore it. It's called The Silent Tower and the sequel is The Silicon Mage. There are some really great lines. The heroine is pretty cool, but my favorite character is Antryg Windrose. *grins* He is the greatest thing since slice bread, rocks my socks, and proves that sanity isn't all it's cracked up to be (he's a slightly mad mage.)

I'm going to go eat breakfast (Sam - "She got up and decided to post and read posts instead of eating."
Fred - *shakes head* "Amazing."
Sam - "Yeah, especially when all she thinks of is food.")
and call Bowie-ite and see if he's around since I didn't manage to get in touch with him yesterday. 'Til next time...
