Being a little bit lazy, but I'm about to go to the gym. Right now, I'm watching The Beach, which is an incredible movie if you haven't seen it. It makes me think about how good an actor Leonardo DiCaprio is. Because I never really appreciated him as an actor until I saw Blood Diamond.
Blood Diamond is also an incredible movie. The way Leo changes his dialect throughout the movie is incredible. I haven't been as happy with a movie as I was with this one since I saw Pan's Labyrinth. To put things in perspective: most people loved The Departed, another movie Leo was in. The Departed was good, Blood Diamond is better.
Although I don't particularly care to be shot at or have an arm chopped off (see the movie), one thing about Blood Diamond is that it appealed to my want to see the world. Many people want to visit Europe, which is one place I want to visit as well, but what makes me different is my desire to see the rest of the world. I want to visit Europe, Asia, Africa, South America, even the Middle East.
The other day I was talking about potential careers. I'm still holding out hope for contract killer. I've established a promising lead in my mercenary training. I could be a war journalist, which would give the the opportunity to travel, although I understand there's the possibility of some danger involved... I laugh in the face of danger. I could teach English to the Japanese in Japan.
As it turns out, there's hope for me.
Hurrah!

If there's one thing I've learned in my life, it's to never get your hopes up. You'll just be disappointed, much more so than you would have been had you never had hope.
Just lookin' out for you, man.
Oh, Dave... I love you, man. No worries. Be happy!
