| Thursday, 13th January 2003 Well, I�m still yet to see an art exhibition, but I do own the best book ever published!! �Kurt Cobain Journals� is officially my favourite book. It�s 2:47am and yesterday I stayed awake for 20 hours straight (well, it was a combined effort of yesterday and the previous). I�ve been up watching the four videos we hired. All were good except for one. It was yet another Shakespeare modern-day adaptation with Julia Stiles. Whilst I thought �Ten things I hate about You� and �O� were OK, this movie differed. I really don�t think that you can successfully put �Hamlet� into a modern day scenario and still use the original writings. The story is great and was the first ever work of Shakespeare�s that I read, but this movie was a total piece of trash. It was a nice idea and all, but one that just can�t be done. The only entertaining part was at the beginning when the billboard of Hamlet�s father�s company was �Denmark,� instead of �Goldmark.� I couldn�t watch it all, it wrecked the story. Shortly after Hamlet sore the apparition of his father, I changed the video. My very close friend Ashley is leaving for America in a matter of days � if not already. I was suppose to be going to the airport with her to see her off, but I forgot what day she told me she leaves and I haven�t talked to her in a while. I�m so stupid. I have homework, but I�m too lazy to do most of it. The essay I have to write for History though, that�s not entirely laziness � I wouldn�t have a clue what I am supposed to write. I really feel like getting up on a stage and doing some acting right now. I crave it more than anything. I can�t find any plays to act in � that�s the problem. I�m supposed to be doing two this year with a local community group, but I want to do something more challenging and on a more professional level. I suppose by the end of the year I�ll be eating my words. School will keep me busy enough to stop me from thinking about my hopes, dreams and desires. *sigh* Bre. |
