Prof. Moonie We already watched Angels and Demons last night. I liked it. I've never read the book, so I don't know how it compares to the book. The element words that were featured reminded me of something one of my friends found ((and now has as a tattoo on her ankle/lower leg)). One direction it says "Life" and then when you flip it around it says "Death."
So, apparently I did see Angels and Demons before. And now I can say that I finally got around to reading the book... five years later. The movie takes basic elements from the book but that's about it. There was so much important information and events that happened in the book that never happened in the movie.

 In some of my earlier posts in this thread, I keep mentioning that I was chatting with a friend. I wonder which friend(s) I was chatting with that I felt compelled to keep mentioning them here.

It's really interesting reading my past posts and hearing the young thought processes in them while comparing them to my posts today. I seem to be so much more philosophical now a days, lol.

Prof. Moonie There are just some people that just don't look good with dyed blonde hair. My "arch-enemy" ((as some of my friends and what not have called her, lol)) is one of those people that looks bad with the blonde hair. She's naturally a brown haired girl, but now she's blonde. So does not look good on her. Though... it does suit her personality... not the smartest cookie and she's definitely got that "everything must revolve around me" attitude. Not that I'm saying all blondes are like that. But she definitely falls into the stereotypical image of blondes. xd

It's actually pretty fun looking back at my old posts and making comments on some of them. Seems suiting considering the current Throwback Memories event that Gaia has going.
So, I'm going to continue looking through them later. I left off on page 50.
Heading off to work now. Later!

Good evening everyone. I'm just going to be posting for a bit here before I decide to head to bed and read for a bit before calling it a night.

After hearing so many of my co-workers and online friends talking about how much they loved Mad Max:Fury Road, I decided to go see it in 3D after my cat socialization shift today. BEST DECISION EVER! The movie was absolutely fantastic. I enjoyed seeing all of the vehicles the characters were driving and the cast was fantastic. The post-apocalyptic world setting was pretty neat too; it really added to the storyline.
If you haven't seen the movie yet, I definitely suggest you check it out.

Prof. Moonie There's a scholarship I found earlier this morning that I'm going to try applying for. Not many scholarships out there at this time. Things just seem so sucky right now. Barely any jobs out there... and college tuition prices keep going up. Doesn't seem to make any sense... what happened to making sure everyone has the chance to get the education they need? How does anyone expect to get the employees they are looking for when they can't get the degree they need because of the price of education? *sighs* I don't know...
Sometimes I feel like finding a job in the past was much easier than it is today. Or maybe that's just how history books make it out to seem. Maybe it was just as bad back then as it is now.

Prof. Moonie This place is really cute! Though it would be a bit big for just myself. If I did buy it, I would invite my friends to come live with me. xd Plenty of room for everyone. 6 bedrooms!
In fact, she's recently been scheming about moving to Anaheim. She seems pretty intent on encouraging me to move with her, lol.

It's because of Melissa's little moving scheme that pushed me a bit closer to go to CatCon LA. With going to this event, I'll be accomplishing various things:
1) Adding another type of convention to the list of ones I've attended ((anime, comic book/pop culture, and now cat-oriented))
2) Travel - by myself as well
3) Getting an idea of what it's like in Southern California ((the farthest south I remember traveling in CA is the redwood forests; Melissa goes to Disneyland annually, so she's pretty familiar with the area.))

Oh, by the way, I had applied for a few jobs a few days ago. I don't remember if I mentioned it before when I was actually doing it... so, sorry if I'm repeating information. Originally, my plan was to try to find a job that was closer to my field of interest (writing, library, etc.) and degree (English). Unfortunately, many of the places that fall into that category are either not hiring or if they are, it's for positions that I don't have the right amount of experience or type of degree. So... in the end, all of the jobs I did apply for ended up being pet-oriented where I'm assisting in the vet clinic area ((no medical experience needed)) or administrative.
Anyway, the reason why I bring this up is... I received call earlier today to set up an interview for one of the places I applied for. It's amazing how quickly I heard back from them; totally was not expecting that. So, it should be interesting how the interview goes... and hopefully will gain more information about the position (i.e. pay rate, medical benefits [if any for a part time position], etc.).

Alright, so this "walk down memory lane" with my posts is slowly getting boring. Therefore, I'm not gonna do it anymore. It was fun for the time being but it's become dull.
