You're so Vain, You Probably Think this LJ is About You

Okay, in a nutshell:

Work is eh.

I am broke, but will be receiving a Christmas bonus in a couple of weeks. So, yay!

God, I love this time of year.

The movie Shimotsuma Monogatari (Kamikaze Girls in the U.S.) is full of win! I loved the girl who played Ichigo - her attitude is very over the top cholo. It is just weirdly funny and oddly touching. I can totally relate to the loli's apathy, LOL!

Also, instead of purchasing $40 tickets to see the Nutcracker ballet, I bought my favorite version Nutcracker: The Motion Picture for $15. It's something we used to watch every year on TV all through my high school and college days. It's time it came home.

And finally, my NaNoWriMo update: I am still about 4K words away from hitting 50K. I am not sure why I am pushing myself so hard to finish in the allotted time, but you know. I just am. I don't know if I would do it again, though. Forcing stuff out, especially for someone who likes to self-edit TO DEATH, is excruciating at times. But it's been a learning experience. And, who knows? Maybe after a year off, I'll be raring to go! LOL...at least my typing skills have gotten a bit better. Sorta.
