Now It's November

I thought I would make a follow-up blog to let you know how my October mission turned out.  I've kind of been putting this off because I did not succeed in watching all those movies. I'll just tell you that straight out. I failed. And I'm sorry.


I said I would watch Interview with a Vampire, which I did, but that doesn't even count since I watched it before I wrote that blog.  Next on my list was The Shining, which, in my defense, I really want to watch this with a friend (Kelsey) and I have not seen her since July so... I'm kind of glad that I didn't watch it so now we can watch it together for the first time.
I did watch Paranormal Activity! Success. My review: it was all right. Sort of intense, but I thought it was a little disappointing at the end. Not as terrible as I thought it would be.
I didn't get to watch Shutter Island again, but it's still on my list. I loved it when I saw it in theaters, so I suggest that everyone see it. I also did not watch An American Werewolf in London, Nightmare Before Christmas, or The Ring, so I feel bad about that.  Nor did I get to revisit Psycho.

This is getting pretty depressing. As for the rest of the movies, I didn't see them either, haha. That means I did not get to watch the creepy guy in Nosferatu, and I didn't get to enjoy Woody Harrelson once again in Zombieland (sad face).  Didn't see I was a Teenage Werewolf, did not watch Van Helsing (but this is another one I want to watch with Kelsey), and I didn't see Sleepy Hollow. Hopefully next year I will do better.

But after all that fail, don't you want to know what I did watch? I will tell you.
I watched the 1992 version of Dracula. It was not very good. Not recommended.
I saw My Soul To Take in theaters. It was pretty decent. But it made me have a bad dream in which I killed somebody.
And I watched LOTS and LOTS of Dexter. :D
This was my newfound obsession for the month. Had I not been so bogged down with an unusual amount of work to do, I would have finished every episode available. I went through the entire second season in one weekend. That's twelve hours of Dexter, guys. That's intense.
Long story short, it's an amazing show that you should give a chance. It's on Showtime though, so there's mature content; it might be kind of offensive in terms of language and some nudity. Just a heads up.

So, now that it's November 2nd, I feel like I should let you know how my month will probably go.
This week will be chill. This weekend will be awesome (it's DEEP!). Next week should probably also be pretty chill. And next weekend, my fam is coming to town!
The week after that (the week of Monday the 15th) should be a little more busy. In addition to schoolwork, I am going to see Harry Potter at midnight on Thursday (Friday technically), which I can tell you more about later. Yes, I think I will make a Harry Potter post at some point.
After that, I am still deciding on exactly how many of my two classes I want to attend on that Friday because Thanksgiving Break starts that Saturday!
You know what I am doing?? I'm going to ALABAMA!! I get to go visit Kelsey for her birthday, then we are flying back home the next day. Then I get freeedom until Sunday. So looking forward to it. :)
Then when I come back to school on Monday there are only two days of November left!
How awesome!

So that's my month. And, once again, I will post a follow-up in December. That's all for now!
