I went and saw Gangs of New York with as much of the posse (left in town) that I could scrounge together: Michael, Amit, Alan, Frank, and Prasid. Well, anyways, it started off really cool with the fighting and whatnot, and I thought it'd be an awesome 3 hours of vicious combat to the death between gangs. I was very much disappointed in that respect. The end started getting so weird I was just like wtf is going on? I don't get it. And then the movie kinda just ended with a pretty image that I guess is somehow supposed to relate the movie to modern times or something- I'm not too sure; I don't always get symbolism, or even properly identifying it most of the time. So yea, since I didn't get it, that probably means critics'll either say the movie was sheer genius or a sheer crap. It was kind of like the feeling I got after watching 2001: A Space Odyssey but not to such a high degree. I dunno, whatever.

So after that, we went to IHOP and chatted it up a bit. We had plenty of laughs. But yea, sometimes in the midst of the laughter, I'd think about how it's absent from my day-to-day life, and I suddenly sooooooooo do not wanna go back to school. =/ Bleeeehhhhhh...
