Procrastination At Its Finest

So I'm back. It's been a week since my last post and believe you me, it was one week just chock full of interestint stuff (ha). Well on top of probably failing my Immunology test, I have a huge paper due in a couple of weeks that I have yet to start. So far so good. I'm just ready to be done with this semester. Being a Grad student is not all it's cracked up to be. It's just more work for the same credit hours that underclassmen receive for the same class. Granted, it's credit towards my Masters Degree but still. I'm resentful of the undergrads because I know they're just laughing and playing and having a big time while I'm slaving away on a paper about the effects of tylenol and aspirin on the immune system. And I'm pissed. I guess that it comes with the territory. I'm also a GTA and that's basically slave labor for the sake of helping out the professor's at JSU who have better things to do than sit around and teach Freshman Bio labs. So they let us do it for minimum wage. How thoughtful! Anyway, I'm done griping about extra work so until next time...

Movie Review: The Boondock Saints
I just watched this movie for the first time last week and I have to say, I loved it. I didn't know what to expect, a little action maybe? Well it definitely had that. If you haven't seen it, even though it's been out for 5 years, I still won't ruin it for you. I'll just give a short premise of the story...2 Irish fraternal twin brothers, Connor and Murphey, decide that God wants them to rid the world of all the evil people so they set out to do just that. Sean Patrick Flanery (Connor) and Norman Reedus (Murphey) played their roles excellently. They added a little humor to an otherwise dark situation. Willem Dafoe is also in this movie. He plays and FBI agent that is searching for the killers. He's really smart and in the end seems to be torn between doing what morally feels right and what's legal. Overall this movie had action, comedy, drama, and everything in between. Even the camera angles and shots worked really well with the story. I think it's immoral what the brothers do but since they only kill bad people including many mafia bosses and underbosses, then by the end of the movie I started to cheer for them. The director Troy Duffy showed footage at the end of the movie that looked like a reporter interviewing regular people about whether or not they agreed to what the "Saints" were doing. Opinions came from both points-of-view. Either way, this movie is an underground cult hit of which I'm now a member. Maybe one of these days I'll review a movie I don't like but mostly I don't feel like wasting my time on crap I dislike but we'll see.
