Sunset Boulevard...

Really going to try to keep up with blog thing, it's definitely nice to have somewhere to write stuff and have it automatically stored. It's pretty cool to be able to share your thoughts like this as well, if I ever get round to telling my blog friends that I have a blog too!

Currently writing an essay on Sunset Boulevard and it's not going so well, I keep getting really bored really easily (surprise surprise!). Considering going down to the shop to get some yummy sweeties, I honestly think that winegums help me work! (Yes, of course they do!)

My university halls are beginning to liven up a bit more finally, actually saw a few people moving back in even though classes don't start for a while but exams first! One of my mate's is supposed to be coming up later but no idea when he's coming up and I really need his help - this is something that really annoys me, when people say they're coming over but can give you no definite time or anything and you're kinda left hanging. I hate waiting, I'm not good at it, I'm a very impatient person and want everything I want now! (However greedy that may sound I don't mean it to be!)

Well this essay beckons, needs to be written (and learned) for tomorrow. If you've never seen Sunset Boulevard, then I advise you watch it. 1950, directed by Billy Wilder and starring Gloria Swanson and William Holden. Gloria Swanson stars as this mad, neurotic actress who is now faded from memory and forgotten by her fans. She meets Gillis, a poor screenwriter, and becomes obsessed with him. Of course it's going to have a bitter ending!
