Fall "Break"

3pipeproblemMy four day "break" begins today. I get the impression I'm one of the few people staying on campus for it. Makes me feel like Harry Potter. Shit, I just remembered my building isn't going to have water tomorrow. How irritating.
Haven't seen any new movies. I'll leave that for tomorrow.
I am developing a mad obsession with Ulysess which, while helpful for my grade, is rather frightening. I have this incredible affection for Bloom. We mainly talked about him today. He's so nice and sad and always thinking about business, which is kinda cute. Stephen I vacillate between identifying with and wanting to throttle.
In class, my prof asks these random questions about the book ("What's Bloom's job?" "What was Bloom's father's name?") and everyone's just like "Uh..." and I know the answers. It's really sad.
So, I went to see The Strokes tonight. It was good stuff. The band that opened for them totally sucked, and I kinda drifted off, but The Strokes themselves were good. Oddly enough, none of us (I went with two of my roommates and a guy from down the hall) had heard much of their music. I was rather irritated that I couldn't understand the lyrics, but I got over it. The lighting was cooooool.
Yeah. I'm suddenly really tired, so I'll be cutting this short. The concert did rock, though. And Todd Haynes' Safe is a good movie, but it scared the shit out of me. Like, more than any movie I've ever seen. Except for Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. But I was seven at the time.

Bah, stupid people in your class.
