Hey, guys.
Last night, I saw an unbelievably good film called The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. I can't tell you too much about the plot because it's mostly spoilers, but suffice it to say, guys, this is a fantastic movie.
Everything about it is amazing. The casting, the score, the locations. All of it. The plot is well measured- it's well constructed without hurling too much information at you at once. Cinematography. Characters.
I am going to issue the same warning I know everyone else is going to give you, though: There are some incredibly disturbing scenes in this movie. I wouldn't recommend you see it if you aren't able to cope with violence on screen, especially violence against women.
Speaking as an ardent feminist, I still believe that these parts were important to the movie. You feel hatred, and terror, and anger, and helplessness. It's almost like your anger pulls you into the plot like a net. An emotional investment. Perhaps this is just due to the way in which I become immersed in movies as I watch them, or the fact that I have some very close friends who have been sexually assaulted, but... when I watched this movie, the desire to kill those bastards was the strongest thing I felt.
That's an excellent movie, if you ask me.
So.
Here's the link to the trailer. It will be worth your time.

An Unfortunate Announcement
Hey, guys.
So, some people may have noted that I haven't been on much in the last, oh say, six months or so. it's been coming on for a while (as I'm sure is evidenced by my long absenteeism) but I think I really need to take some time off from DA for a while.
I'm writing this journal to make it sort of official, and to let you guys know that I haven't been hit by a truck or anything. You guys have been really amazing and supportive ever since I started posting on this website.
The thing is, DeviantART is supposed to be fun. And it is fun, it's just that for a while now maintaining my gallery's seemed like a chore.I started feeling guilty a
Purple
So I have a Mac. And purple hair.
Life is good.
End of Classes and Summer
SO, classes are over. Now I just have three finals to take and I am done. Life is looking up. it really is.
On my first day off from classes, my brother and I went to see Amanda Palmer and Evelyn Evelyn at the Lucille Lortel Theater. It was so good. Like, ahmahgawdidon'tevenlikeWHUT good. They were so funny. And, like, good, and, like ahmigawd. And yeah.
I'm happy to be out of school. I range between saying I don't mind to school to saying I absolutely hate it. It was definitely edging into hatred territory there at the end.
But in any case. Three more finals, and then I am DONE. I have never been more ready.
...maybe I'll actually start
I Think...
...it's time for a new icon.
Except that I have no Photoshop on this computer.
This is a problem.
