I just finished The Bear and the Dragon, another of Tom Clancy's masterpieces. I found myself with 50 pages to go but a few hours ago, and I figured I'd take the time to wisk through it. As usual, I was not disappointed, the pages flew by, I laughed in disbelief, at hilarity and nervous laughter at the possibility of the loss of characters I've grown to know and love. I hit the last page, and was satisfied. I start The Cardinal of the Kremlin tonight, which looking on Amazon seems to be the third book in the Jack Ryan series (if you know, please fill me in). I've read the last four books in the series, and am going back to fill in my blanks. I've read five and a half of the eight books. Yay me, yay reading, yay Tom Clancy.
I had an exam at 9:15 this morning in Management. I studied from post-Laker game til midnight (before satiating my desire to further my extra-curricular-reading). And then woke up at 6:45.. without the assistance of my alarm (which was set for 6:00 and somehow malfunctioned, failing to make any noise at all, let alone that sufficient enough to wake me from slumber). Got my ass in gear, prepared my lunch while tossing Peanut Butter Crunch with Milk down my throat along with some OJ. Got to campus, and started making a "crib sheet" as some people call them, for my exam. I had slightly over an hour to do it, and finished at 9:13am. Luckily, my exam was in the same building, and I breezed through it. I would be seriously surprised if I don't receive an A. And afterward, I got the name of the cute girl with the dyed-blonde hair (dark roots).
Friday night my buddy Paras, also a friend of Matt's, was celebrating his birthday at a restaurant called Lazy Dogs, and as fate would have it Matt was in town. He and I arranged to attend, which turned out to be fun. Aside from Paras, Matt and a girl whom I didn't much enjoy the company of last summer (when I met her) I knew no one at the table of 10. Although I guess 3 of 10 isn't too bad. Anywho, we had two waitresses assigned to us, and I think I made an impression on both. That's just my thing, I like waitresses, you know. Hence my dislike for waiters - just not as fun. I met everyone at the table, and was introduced to the hostess of the establishment, a friend of Paras's. Good times were had, before during and after. Matt and I had one hell of a time finding a parking spot near the restaurant (it's in a Promenade thingy, a Street Mall or something... I don't know how to describe it. We had a blast, as always, and we've discussed forming committees to discuss matters of our nation-state-to-be (the apartment we're living in come Fall). Good times.
Kill Bill Volumes 1 and 2 are playing at the el cheapo cinema along with The Day After Tomorrow. I think I might try and see them at some point during the course of the week. $3.00 is a good price, don'tcha know. Maybe Wednesday and Friday, if timing permits.
When I found out the name of the cute girl in my management class today, it was in a discussion with a fellow student in the class, and it became painfully clear that I had sorely fallen behind in my main-stream-cinema-viewing. Although the releases of late haven't been my cup of tea, so there's an excuse. Meh.
Random Addition:
I woke up from a most fucked up dream on... I think it was Saturday morning. I dreamt I was in a room, and I was being attacked by butterflies. Yes, butterflies. Weirdest thing ever, and I was so disturbed by the onslaught of colorful, winged creatures that I actually woke up from this dream before 6am. Yeah, weird huh?
