so i think i remember manuel blogging about this, but anyway:
we're watching this movie in spanish called abre los ojos (open your eyes)
english speakers did a re-make of it called vanilla sky.
i know some of you have seen it. its got tom cruise.
and the weird shit is that both the spanish and english version have penelope cruz.

anyway. i think its an interesting topic so far, but i hear it gets even crazier in the second hour of the movie.
im enjoying it.
but.
what i wanted to talk about was how cool subtitles are.
for a lot of the movie, i can read the subtitles, then before or during the talking, i can actually catch and understand it all.
so i can either keep up, or confirm that it is actually what i herd.
so yeh.
in the beggining of the movie, that one chic that really wants to get with him, but he doesnt want to "pisses him off"
heh. that was what the subtitles read. but the actor actually sez "toca los huevos".
which literally translates to touches my eggs, or slang, balls/gonads.
so. when youre pissed, its because someone touches your balls... at least thats how the spanish-speakers take it......

in my anthro class today, we were talking about primates. apes, monkeys, and whatnot.
and brain development was brought up, and therefore questions about an apes conscience.
the prof brought up the instance where koko bit a helper and lied about it.
but anyway. one of the students asks if apes have souls, feelings, etc.
i accidentally let out a laugh.
souls? fuk.
we're talking evolution, and shes talking about souls....
heh.

and i guess to round out my day, i BSed my way through english by lying that i actually did have references for my paper.
i have looked at some shit online, but she wanted actual books.
but really.. isnt that was a lot of school is all about?
finding the most efficient/effective way of doing a given task even if it isnt way that the teacher intended.
and also. its all about the final outcome (paper) isnt it?
well. thats what i think. non-conventional is good cuz it makes you think of other ways to get things done.
bloop.
thats all i got.
nappy time commenceth.
