Right Here

I don't know if I'm ready
or if I'm only stalling
I don't know what to do
I'm so scared
I'm afraid

That I'll be the one
To love you or to hurt you
And that I'll be done
Before I can tell you
That I don't know where I'm going
But I'm thinking that you should be
Right here with me

I don't know how to tell you
That I think I'm falling
I don't know what to do
I'm so happy
I'm afraid

That I'll be the one
To love you or to hurt you
And that I'll be done
Before I can tell you
That I don't know where I'm going
But I'm thinking that you should be
Right here with me

I want you here beside me
I need to hear you love me
I don't want to hurt you
But I don't know how
& I'm afraid

That I'll be the one
To love you or to hurt you
And that I'll be done
Before I can tell you
That I don't know where I'm going
But I'm thinking that you should be
Right here with me

Those are the lyrics to that song I said I wrote. It has a tune, as well, but I can't really write that down. I've got it in my head, though. ^-^ I don't know where it came from, honestly, but all of a sudden there was a song writing itself in my head. The bridge is still wonky, but its growing on me and might not change anymore. If you would like to hear it, let me know. I can sing it for you...if my nerves don't get the better of me.

For he was famous long ago for playing the electric violin on desolation row...

I kind of sort of almost DIED of happiness last night. Watchmen was appropriately epic, and one of the best adaptations I've ever seen. Quite possibly THE best comic book/graphic novel adaptation ever. Rorschach was incredible. Dr. Manhattan was PERFECT. Laurie was bitchy but loveable. Sally really does love The Comedian, who was slimy and gross. Ozymandias was the image of cheap, sleazy buttface who happens to be a genius. Nite Owl II was adorable, and Hollis was such a cute old guy. ^-^

Zack Snyder's stereotypical sporadic slow motion moments during the fight scenes came off much less cheesy than they did in 300. The sex scene was drawn out WAY too much - half a panel does not translate to five minutes - but the Silk Spectre I/Comedian incident was perfect. I'm really happy with the way they showed the history of the Minutemen/Watchmen, and glad that they pointed out the comic boy even if we didn't get the comic-within-a-comic in the movie.

I am saddened by the lack of squid, however. The alternative ending was well-done and made much more sense as an ending. However, it lost some of the gritty feel because things wrapped up a little. Heehee, I love that Silk Spectre I flirts with Nite Owl II even though he's dating her daughter. ;D I also love my amazing friends that didn't kill me for giggling my way through the movie.

Whoever sang Hallelujah in that movie was creepy as hell, though. I really disliked that version of the song. The rest of the soundtrack was divine. ^-^ I especially loved the cover of Desolation Row that played during the credits.

I'm going to stop squealing about this amazingness and take bio notes now. =D

AAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay.
Now that that's done.
I was accepted into the Jan Term program for next year.
British Culture Through Theatre and Music in LONDON.
I'm kind of FREAKING OUT.
OH MY GOSH. EGJNAIEFARNKGFAE.
My brain does not want to work because I am so happy.
I have a photosynthesis worksheet due tomorrow in biology and I can't concentrate because I am SO freaking happy.
Go me.
Also, this means I will actually meet the head of the theatre department because he's one of the professors for the trip. The other one is Debbie Hansen, from the music department. ^-^

I've been looking through the pictures from the last trip - mostly Rachel's and Ben's, because I don't know who else went - and I'm so stoked.
Trip of a lifetime.
Now for the money part.
Crap.
