Gone Shopping
As I've mentioned before, I've been given money by my parents and told to buy my own Christmas gifts this year. So basically, I went to a couple of malls and shopping centers to buy myself stuff I won't open for another couple of weeks. Here's a list of stuff I bought and the ridiculous amount of money I spent...
Panasonic Portable CD Player ($49.99)
Sued House Slippers ($19.99)
Excel Saga Volume 4 DVD ($22.99)
Outkast's Speakerboxx/Love Below Double-CD ($17.99)
Kingdom Hearts for the Playstation 2 ($19.99)
Blue/White Shirt ($20.00)
[Used] Marvel vs. Capcom 2 for Playstation 2 ($31.49)
Grey/Blue Sweater-Vest ($14.99)
GRAND TOTAL: $197.43
I'm a greedy bastard, aren't I? Now all I have to do is buy gifts for other people. A few toys, dolls, clothing accessories, ect. should work for my sister and neice. I feel I should get something for my mom, because she's the one who came up with the idea of me doing all of my own shopping.
And thus will my life savings die a slow, painful, costly death. I just got 10 times more desperate for a job. Time to lower my standards. Janitorial work, here I come.
My transition back into reading American comic books continues (I stopped reading comics when I was 11 or 12, and I just started reading them again this summer), as I have started reading the Batman storyline titled "No Man's Land." Very crazy stuff. Some kind of catalclysmic disaster hit Gotham City (I don't know what it was) and rather than the government repair the city and send aid to the residents, they declared Gotham independant from the USA; a no-man's-land that was closed off from the rest of the world. No one enters, no one leaves. No laws. Things are very 3rd-worldy and gang turf-themed.
Now onto real literature. In Interview With The Vampire, the character Lestat was somewhat one-dimensional. He was manipulative and somewhat co-dependant. In the book The Vampire Lestat, he's very different. It's written in his point of view, and he comes off a lot more human than in the previous book. Of course, I'm reading the part of his lifestory when he was still human, but you get my point. He's 3rd-dimensional.
Hmm. I think it's about time for me to write another list of short rants. Maybe another day. Soon. I'm in too good of a mood to rant right now.
Much Love |
