Future

It would be nice if I kept this blog going when I'm in college, and even during my working career. I plan on working in the film industry. I know I have an amazing future ahead of me. What sealed the deal for me was my 33 on the ACT. I did not study, and I didn't do AMAZING on the SAT (1390), so I had no high hopes. I was struggling on the ACT and actually felt like the SAT was much easier, but I got a near perfect, Ivy League level score on one, and a meh score on the other. That showed me my natural power. If I just chill, I will always come out in a good spot. Some other things that increased my confidence were being 1 of 30 students in the country accepted into a super cool program this summer (I never get into programs), and winning the Phi Beta Kappa award. I wondered, "Why me?". Well, the award is for a student who people think will go on to be great. I know I will go on to be great. It's not because of other people. Yes, this year I have finally been able to see a bit of what others see when they look at me. But I know I will be great just because I have recognized the benefits of my unique personality, rather than being insecure about being weird. I am now a PROUD weird girl! I'm quirked up 4L and I do not care!!! I think I'm going to share my blog on my college applications. I don't use TikTok, Twitter, or Instagram. Only social media I have are Reddit, MyAnimeList, and this blog. My personality will really shine through on this blog. I know it. Do people keep up with blogs anymore? Eh, whatever. I'm here to have fun! I'm going to share my blog, but my goal isn't really to get famous. I know I could be famous if I wanted to be, because I'm an interesting person. This isn't a matter of cockiness, just fact. I know that I'm an interesting person. Well, then again, being interesting is quite subjective. Let me clean that statement up by saying I know that a lot of people would find me quite interesting and want to follow my life. That's much better phrasing. I'm never really sure how to title my blog posts. I wonder what will happen if I don't title them. I'll see later. I want to finish Welcome to the NHK today. After that, I will begin my journey to complete Serial Experiments Lain (ugh😒). Once I complete Serial Experiments Lain, my anime shackles will be done. Then, I will watch other anime to entertain myself while I wait for my anime-watching buddy to complete Kill la Kill and catch up on FLCL. Then I'm REALLY back in business. What an awesome life I live.

Elvis, 2022 - ★★★★★

Baz Luhrmann, you are my guy 4L. What an awesome movie. I'm sickened by the level of greatness that movie possessed. But I mean, who can be surprised? This was a Baz Luhrmann film after all. Austin Butler put his SOUL into his performance as Elvis Presley. What a beautiful film. Super duper kudos to the whole cast and crew. And I give a special shoutout to makeup as well as the editing crew. They did their thing! I know some will have complaints about the extravagance of the film, but 1) it's about Elvis, what did you expect? and 2) It's a Baz Luhrmann film, what did you expect? Baz Luhrmann was the perfect guy to make an Elvis movie, he completely gets how to put on a show, just like EP himself. - Letterboxd http://dlvr.it/STHvDQ

Vogue: An Ode To The Marc Jacobs The Tote Bag

  This image is from the Vogue article,  An Ode To The Marc Jacobs The Tote Bag . I think it's such a lovely photo. I bought my own MJ tote bag today, yasss! It is so beautiful!!! I got The Small Tote Bag in Black . After tax, it cost 210.60. I only have 9.33 left lol. I have 30 more bucks on the way, but 39.33 still isn't much. This summer I have  to get a job. I want more Marc Jacobs tote bags. I also want clothes, so I really need the money. My odd jobs are inconsistent so I can't rely on that to buy bags which cost over 200 after tax. Now, here are some general updates: - Today, I watched Brightburn, as well as Sparky and Micaela and Hamster PSA, so that's 3 more parts of James Gunn's filmography I've completed. - Right now, I am watching Movie 43. I really like it! This is so funny lol.

Yet the Town Keeps Going

In my May 31 post titled "Being Weird", I said, "Now that I've completed Stranger Things, I don't really know what to do. I've been reading  this new manga , and I like it, but I'm not obsessed with it. It's fun, that's all. It's not like Arakawa Under the Bridge, or the series I read last summer where I spent every waking moment on them. I don't think there are many more series out there that can consume me the way the stuff I read last summer did.". Here is an update on that manga. The manga is called Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru or SoreMachi for short. In English, the name is Yet the Town Keeps Going, but I like to call it SoreMachi. I read it from May 29 to June 5, and I totally loved it. At the beginning, I was not obsessed, but as I read further I could not put it down. At first, I felt it was going by slowly, but eventually, it started speeding by and I was at the final chapter (138.5) in a flash. 139 chapters went by like noth...
