* ~ * ~ ~ ~ * ~ ~ ~ * Alex's Journal * ~ ~ ~ * ~ ~ ~ * ~ *



I'm starting to write exercises from The 3 A.M. Epiphany and it's starting to fuel my writing muse again, which I'm overjoyed about. I really hope those of you reading this read Angel Eyes and liked it! :D Feel free to leave critiques about it - I post my work because I want to learn. :)

Also, recently I've started to look at the wake of my life (things I've done in the past that I can reflect on now - actions, grades, consequences, etc) and I'm seeing a lot of regrets. It's starting to sink in that a life of lazy relaxation isn't worth the weight of regret that it leaves you with. So even though I'm 23 and I feel that it's "late" in my life to change because of how hard it will be, it's time for me to start working toward it otherwise I fear I never will. I fear being stuck in this mundane, lukewarm cycle the rest of my life and looking back with the regret that my life accompished nothing more than momentary pleasure.
I only have one life to live...so it's time to start acting that way.

God help me, I need to change and I can't do it on my own.



OKAY! Onto a more cheerful note. :D

Tonight, me and ~Sakura-Kagurazaka get to go see the midnight release of New Moon. :D I'm a bit apprehensive because, to me, the last one was just...blah. I read the books first and they were written much better than the screenplay for the movie was. Also, I'm really not fond of the actor/actress that play Edward and Bella. While I think Robert Pattinson has some potential, he's playing Edward as some...emo-pansified-metro-sexual vampire, which is NOT who Edward was - the books described him as a deep, pensive, artful, often over-protective, old-fashioned person...not this "I can't live without you *whine whine whine*" pansy.
And Bella...don't get me started. If rapid blinking and staccato breathing was all it took to be an actress, she'd be at the top of the list. As it is, her expressions are dull and lack any real connection with the audience, unlike the fictional character she portrays (wow...a fictional character acts better than her? That's sad, lol). Her vocal tone is non-existent and she gives no depth to the character past the lines written for her. Very disappointing.
Needless to say, I'm not one of the "OMG EDWARD" tweenies you see trolling Hot Topic stores... I loved the books and I expected way more from the first movie.

So with all this said, why go see New Moon?
Well, the has the potential to be different in that the last director (who shall not be named...) was replaced with Chris Weitz, who I'm hoping will take the movie to new heights. :fingerscrossed:

Either way, you'll know in a few days. ;P

Much love and keep the faith!!

P.S. Are there good Zelda games for the PS2? I'm too lazy and I thought you'd like the chance to educate me. ~D

Unfortunately, no - Zelda is exclusively owned by Nintendo so all of the games are on Nintendo systems. :(
Though if you ever get a GameCube or a Wii, I'd be more than happy to suggest some great titles under the Zelda series. :D

If you have 30 minutes to spare, I would like to recommend watching this video/sermon called the 'Haunted House'

There's more info on it in my journal here: [link]
