Wow, cried soooo much at the end of the OC. Like, actually tears down my face. I'm such a wuss. Dude, New Orleans Opera is doing Das Rheingold which I really, really want to see. I wish I had the money :( And someone to go with. I don't know how much the tickets cost, but I did get the number. I would totally die to see it! My dad tells me about it all the time, he probably saw it in San Fransisco back in his 'youth' lol. I hate not having a car, I hate not having a job, and I hate not having money. I can't do anything, I can't go to the movies, I can't go to the mall, the symphony, plays, or even the opera. Back at home I have no doubt that my parents would pay for tickets to those (not the movies, but the 'art' ones) but now, I can't go, too expensive. I can't get a job without a car either. I miss my baby so much, I was thinking today about how gorgeous it was outside and I wish I could just cruise around in my baby with the windows down, the sunroof open and blasting AC/DC. :( I miss my baby *tear* I have such an amazing amount of fucking homework, I'm taking a break at the moment, can't really handle it all. I seriously hate midterms. I mean, whose wonderful fucking idea was it to throw 6 different tests at you at the same time? I wish I had a house and I could just sit in a bath tub and relax, I can feel the tension working on me, constant headaches and my back is aching, I'm totally freaking out (Laura can attest to that, lol), even though I know I shouldn't be worrying this much, they are just tests. Ugh, not to mention, along with tests I have a huge speech to give next week in business class. We had an 'impromptu' speech today and it was the most petrifying exprience of my life. They said I didn't do bad, but I couldn't hear anything except my heart pounding and my voice shaking horribly; I thought I was going to pass out when I sat down again. I hate public speaking....with a passion. Since today, I have now listed it as one of my phobias. This is going to be a blast. I hate business, someone remind me again why I am doing this? Someone also explain to me why I'm taking 4 classes of French just to not use it and go to China instead? And why my parents hate me? And AH! I just want a job so I can leave. Buy myself a ticket and go to France for a few weeks, by myself, just to relax. *breathes deeply* Now that I've worked myself up again, it's back to studying more. I never do anything but study. It's annoying. I hate school. Keep yourself busy New Troy Trailer on Access Hollywood tomorrow
Complete list :: Of LotR Oscar noms and wins for the 3 movies
In other pilot casting news, Dominic Monaghan, Ian Somerhalder, Jorge Garcia and Evangeline Lilly will play castaways in J.J. Abrams' drama "Lost" for ABC
"Lost" centers on the aftermath of a plane crash on a desert island. Monaghan is best known for his role as hobbit Merry Brandybuck in the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy.
From here.
Wrote a cryptic message earlier in LJ and I guess it caught the interest of a few people. Ok, so, we are studying LotR in philosophy and in the book we are using there was this person who associated Freudian sexual fetishes with Lord of the Rings. It was seriously really creepy. It went into detail about 'stocking' fetishes and relates that to the ring and just....wow.....Here are some excerpts, excuse the spelling typos, it's not important enough for me to type carfully, lol. ....[Freud attributes this desire for fixity to a refusal to fully accept that one's mother is not all-powerful--or, in Freudian terms, does not have the phallus. In pursuing and possessing an object that stands for his mother, the fetishist is able to own and control this maternal sexual power he both fears and loves. For a deep terror of the femal genitals underlies such behavior and the fetish provides a safe substitute for the risky self-giving sexual act.] How messed up is that? ABOUT LOTR!!! AH! *scrubs brain with acid* The person continues with saying there is no romanticism in LotR because the Ring is erotic; that shelob is a toothed vagina (or another name they give is a castrating female) and many other equally bizarre things...it goes on for PAGES AND PAGES. But thankfully by the end the 'fetish' is destroyed because Sam starts thinking about who made all the Things he has (pages and pages on what 'Things' mean too) instead of just the object and he lives happily ever after. I am so scarred for life. Oh, oh, and here's a little bit on elves ....[In aiming to create preventatives against loss, the elves share the fetishist's desire to fix the object of sexual arousal, so that it is untouched by age, decay, or mortality.] ........any thoughts? lol
 Which Legendary Actress are you?
 And since they are everywhere, I'll just post a couple... ( More Hidalgo Prem pics! )
Happiness is not in our circumstances, but in ourselves. It is not something we see, like a rainbow, or feel, like the heat of a fire. Happiness is something we are.
