islanded in a stream of stars

It's a little sad (maybe more than a little) that the most difficult part left on my study abroad application is finding 3 passport-sized photos. Seriously. I was originally thinking about asking one of my roommates to take it with their digital camera, but it might be easier to go the nearest Kinko's instead.

My head hurts just from thinking about the test on the MST treatment manual I need to know for psych research; my new supervisor warned me that no one's ever passed the first quiz the first time around, although the next couple are easier. It's on Monday, too, and I have two newspaper stories that are crying out to be written and a social psych midterm whose material is begging to be learned.

Stolen from drewshi:


take the WHAT BAD BOOK ARE YOU test.
and go to mewing.net. not as good as reading a good book, but way better than a bad one.

Snagged from swashbuckler332 and lehah:

1. Pick 15 of your favorite movies.
2. Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them here for everyone to guess.
4. Strike it out when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the movie.
5. NO GOOGLING/using IMDb search functions.

1. I'm sorry, but I thought I better hit you before he did. He's in better shape than I am.

2. I keep telling you not to think! You're very, very good at a great many things, but thinking, hon, just simply isn't one of them.

3. That's the kind of greeting a girl likes! Not this "Hello-you-look-wonderful" stuff, just a good straight "Who do you know that's an authority on San Francisco history." (Vertigo, guessed by swashbuckler332)

4. Locked, from the inside. That can only mean one thing. And I don't know what it is.

5. It's National Crime Prevention Week. Take a burglar to dinner.

6. Oh, I still do believe in God, old man. I believe in God and Mercy and all that. But the dead are happier dead. They don't miss much here, poor devils.

7. If you don't put that gun away and stop this stupid nonsense, the court of Enquiry on this'll give you such a pranging, you'll be lucky if you end up wearing the uniform of a bloody toilet attendant. (Dr. Strangelove, guessed by lehah)

8. In the three years, seven months and two weeks that I've been in the bag, that's the most extraordinary stuff I've ever tasted. It's shattering! (The Great Escape, guessed by comfortable_yet)

9. I'm villifying you for God's sake - pay attention! (The Lion in Winter, guessed by eldritchhobbit and comfortable_yet)

10. This is a ludicrous situation. I can think of a dozen men who are just longing to use my shower. (Charade, guessed by comfortable_yet)

11. Hello? Yes, there is a beautiful woman in my bed and a dead man in my bath. (The Pink Panther Strikes Again, guessed by eldritchhobbit)

12. Atlanta? You can't be serious! That's Siberia with mint juleps!

13. If you're a Scottish Lord, then I am Mickey Mouse. (Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, guessed by lehah)

14. Good news. You won't be hung in the morning. You will be shot! (The Living Daylights, guessed by lehah)

15. I don't know if it will help saying this to you...some men in this world are born to do our unpleasant jobs for us. Your father is one of them.
