OK, minor irritation...
I was really looking forward to watching "Legend of Earthsea" on SCI-FI. I caught a scene from the first five minutes of the movie and nearly had a heart attack. Someone called him "Ged" in public! And... and... and... *splutters* ...That's just frackin' wrong! *falls over* The concept that one's true name is hidden from all but those who one trusts the most is a pivotal concept to the world of Earthsea. Without it, the entire plot doesn't make sense! -.-;;; I'm disappointed. Sorely. Once I manage to divorce the movie from the books (i.e. Hmm... this is a nice story, it just isn't the same story as in the books) like I did with Jurassic Park, I may watch it. Until then... *bleh*
Bigger irritation...
I take National Boards tomorrow. I'm so screwed. As in "up the ass with a telephone pole, sideways, without the benefit of lube" screwed. April Boards? Nice to meet you. My name is Renee. I'll be seeing you in 4 1/2 months. *chibi expires*
