FRIDAY 6/17
Internship was yet another really busy day and again I loved it. I'm learning so much and I feel like they are starting to see my work ethic and warming up to me which is so great. Can't wait for Wednesday to come again to see what I'll be doing. I was even treated lunch by one of the employees which was awesome and such a nice gesture. I had a teriyaki burger and it was deliciously messy.
Friend crashed at my apartment which was cool. We watched...
MOVIE: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Finally saw this movie. Didn't think I was gonna make it all the way through because I was super exhausted and the movie is just about 3 hours long but I made it and I really liked the movie. Yes it was long but I think it made good use of the 3 hours to really build the characters and tell the life of Benjamin button. All the character building made you really invested in the characters and sad and sympathetic when he goes from youth to senility. Such an interesting love story. It's really amazing whenever you see movies where love is so strong and so everlasting, really makes you or rather me day dream. Anyways liked the movie!
SATURDAY 6/18
What a day full of taking the bus. So first I went to see a free screen of Super 8 on the Paramount lot which was amazing! It was super far though. I waited for the bus to come and it took I swear at least 30 minutes, bus took 1 hour and ended up missing the 2:30 showing because I arrived at 3. Then the inform me that I would have to wait for the 5:30 showing and could not be let onto the lot and theater until 4:30....sucky thing was there was nothing around there so I literally sat at a bus stop for 1.5 hours and read "Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mom" which is quite good so far. Finally saw the movie and the theater was soo spacious and the chairs were the comfiest chairs ever. Also finally got to meet my fellow intern which was great.
AFTER immediately I hopped onto the next two buses and got to the Korean BBQ restaurant where I ate a billion pounds of meat and soaked up all the smoke in the world in my hair and clothes. SO GOOD and wonderful getting to see and chat with past coworkers.
Back home to watch a movie here is what I got to say about them..
MOVIE:
Super 8
Really liked it. Characters were adorable. Great mix between suspense and touchy feeliness. So many poppy outy moments, o mai. I also cried a bunch. Don't feel like saying anymore but thought it was good movie and was glad I decided to watch it. There was so much hype on it that I seriously felt obligated to watch it just so that I could contribute in conversations.
Exit Through the Gift Shop
Second movie of the night, a doc about street art. Really interesting. I think it so awesome that there are artist out there that take the risk to post up their art all around cities, for the simple joy of expressing their thoughts or informing others of issues. Which is why...I thought MBW was such a poser because street artist to their core aren't about the money, that's not why they do it. I just felt like MBW was trying to get the moolah and also was trying just too hard to justify his art work. I liked it exposed me to Banksy, Obey and Space Invaders.
