Around 12:15 am on Thursday April 5, 2007, Kyle and I watched the Thai horror film Shutter.

Reading the sypnosis, it states:

Late one night on a country road, Tun and Jane accidentally run down a mysterious pedestrian. Fleeing the scene, they return to their lives in Bangkok, but soon discover their life has returned to anything but normal. Nightmares haunt Jane's dreams while Tun, a photographer, notices odd spectral figures begin to appear in his work. Returning to investigate the site of the accident, they can find neither rumor nor report of the victim. But when one by one, Tun's closest friends begin to die, he and Jane know they must unravel this mystery before it unravels their very lives.

Yep, I know it sounds like a mixture of The Ring (American version, since I've never seen the original Japanese one) and I Know What You Did Last Summer, but trust me - or rather, trust Kyle - that this movie is way better than those two. I admit to being derisive of the movie at first since it seemed really slow and blah blah and superstitious, but when it finally gained momentum, it was pretty awesome. (I was curious enough about it to buy it off Amazon.com last week.) There's a nice twist in the end that really...well...wraps it up quite nicely.

I was also somewhat scornful and saying "I don't get scared easily." I screamed. Twice. *laughs* Apparently I scared the shit out of Kyle. Thankfully, the people in Chapin never noticed my screams. (Actually, I'd be a little worried about that...Hmmm...)

So warning: If I'm watching a scary flick in your room, make sure your roommate doesn't mind random screams (if you have one, anyway), or that your floormates won't mind them, if the walls are super thin.

Other news....Hmmmm.... I got back a calc test I was struggling over and received 29/30 out of it. Sweet! And then I picked my room lottery number. *smirks* I got 552, the second lowest number for my year-group. Sweet!!!

And then I fell asleep in FYI around the half-way point, and an hour nap after that so I was semi-awake for RLST 105. *sigh* And then the rest of tonight was spent talking, laughing, screaming, dancing. It was a pretty great day overall! I was smiling a lot during dinner and afterwards. It was awesome.

So yeah, Izzy's happy. There. Happy. A bit confused about some things she's going to do and what she should do, but otherwise, she's pretty content. Yay!

Good to see you're happy now; certainly an improvement over last week.

BTW: article this week is done.

Shutter was horrible! I'm not really into horror movies (I'm not easy to scare either), but this one scared the shit out of me.
Saw it twice with a friend, and that night I just couldn't sleep.

Oh, sweetie, it's because Shutter was so scary that it was wonderful!!! At least for me. At first I was able to sleep that night, but when I started showering the next morning I started getting creeped out. There is nothing more vulnerable feeling than being scared while you're naked in the shower. (*Psycho violin music*)

Twice with a friend meaning twice in one night?!

Twice with different friends in two consecutive nights.
