Retour. Return.

I went to see Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull on Sunday, and I have to say, it was exactly what I expected it to be. It was fun. It was fast-paced. It was a little silly. But at the same time, it was awesome. I had a good time, and don’t understand why people are complaining so much about it not “staying true to the old movies.” I’ve got news for you: The old movies (while fantastic) were not works of cinematic genius. They were meant to be pulp-y, serial style films that would often choose the cheesy joke over the subtle one.

Regardless, it was ten times better than the National Treasure films combined with the Da Vinci Code.
Speaking of returning, I’m thinking seriously about going back to school in the fall/winter. Probably winter. I’m looking at Humber’s Broadcasting – Radio program, because it’s something that always interested me, and I feel like it’s something I would be good at. I’m starting to get a little scared, because apparently they only accept 20-25 people into the winter program. It’s only two semesters and finishes with a work placement. I know someone mentioned they knew someone in radio, and I could probably start to do some interning, but I can’t remember who that was (I have some ideas, but am not sure.) If it was you, let me know. EDIT: It was Sam, apparently.  I suck at memory.

The job hunt is still blah. I have a job lined up with BMO Mastercard that starts on the 23rd, working in their call centre. But I don’t really want to do that, now do I? Other things have come up, and seem to be going places, or not going places, so I’m just waiting. Another interview tomorrow in the morning. We’ll see how that goes. Also, the government is frustrating me, because I’ve been out of work for nearly two and a half months and have yet to see dollar one of my EI. Not that I believe I should be living on the government dole, but that I’ve helped to pay for this service and should be able to benefit from it. And that I’m broke. With a capital BR.

The band (Sixes) played our first gig two weeks ago. It went pretty well. Thanks to those who attended. We’re going to try to get something booked for the next two weeks (our drummer leaves for a month in Japan on the 23rd) so keep your ears peeled. There’s still rumblings about changing the name again. I’m done with those games. The band is called Sixes. Done.
