There is no such thing as a snow day here. The snow could be 5 feet high and the schools would still be open. *Sigh* But if I did stay home for a snow day, I'd probably hang out on the computer, and play lots of video games. Maybe read if I had some…

I hate brutal, or vicious killings of animals. Ones where they will feel pain, or suffer in any way. I think it's horribly wrong. But damn, they can be delicious. I feel horrible when I eat meat, but I could just not live without it.

Profile Information

What Kind of Nerdfighter Are You?
Film Nerdfighter
About Me:
Soo.... I used to have something written her about me... but it was awful. And then I found out that my girlfriend Samantha is apparently fantastically amazing at writing this kind of thing about herself. So now I have to redo this so I am not completely shown up.

And I am already stumped as to what to write. Here... lets start simple
I am awkward. Like... really awkward. I have a very difficult time talking to people I don't know; and making friends is even harder. Just as a side note, was that the proper use of a semicolon? Just wondering... cause I am never sure. But anyway. Yeah, I'm awkward. Maybe that's why I suck at these about me things. Oh well.

Okay. So I love to watch movies. I LOVE to watch movies. They are the central point of my life. Without them, I could not exist. Because Shawn + Movies = Life. I also make movies. I am trying to work up, and increase the quality of my films with each one. I am failing. So far... none of them are that good. But I'll just keep trying I guess.

Tim Burton is my idol. The things he can do with a camera, are really what motivate me want to become a filmmaker.

Lets see... what else is there about me? I don't know. I have lots of posters in my room, that are all of movies.... but I doubt you care very much. That is not "about me" that's just "about my room."
Well I am a Star wars nerd as well. I know probably more about Star Wars than the Human brain was ever meant to hold. Okay maybe not THAT much. There are people who know more. A lot more. I guess I only probably know a fraction about everything that goes on in that galaxy.

Hmmm... *is pondering* I think this is getting pretty long now. Maybe I should stop soon. Meh. Even though I have been typing all this up... you still don't really know anything about me. I guess to truly know me, you would have to get to know me in real life. And even then it would take years to figure out. I don't even really know who I am at this point. I guess that's what your teenage years are for. Finding out who you really are? Well so far, I am still trying. One day, I'll think I've got it... but then I go around and think something I never thought I'd think. And I have to start all over again. Maybe that's why I find these things so hard to write. Because how can you describe something you don't even fully understand yourself? I have mostly been telling you things that I like, or have... but not about me specifically. It's like... trying to describe the feeling of a rainbow, or the smell of fresh fruit through only colours. There are just some things that words cannot express. And I'm not claiming to be some deep soul, that I could never describe to you... I'm just saying that you can't truly know "about me" just by reading some little blurb I wrote about myself. I think for this to truly be accurate, it should be written by others. I have a feeling that other people see who we really are better than ourselves. Thoughts are jumbled, and hard to explain. But actions are clear to see and interpret by others.

That's another thing.... I seem to break out into random bits of Spirituality that make no sense at all. And I ramble. But I think you know that already.

Anyway. I think I am running out of space to write. So I'll cut it off there. But I hope you now understand me a little better, and I am sure that this is much better than my last about me.

AND TAKE THAT SAMANTHA! I CAN WRITE "ABOUT MEs" TOO :)

Aside from that, I am pretty boring... oh well.

Wow. I haven't been on the Ning for AGES!
Oh cool! You are in the Musical Theatre class, right? :D Which means you're going to be singing Les Mis-songs, right? :D It's going to be awesome, right?! :D That's epic. You are now a subject of my blazing envy. Which songs are in the medley?
Also, if you incidentally happen to, just like me, think that Neil Patrick Harris/Dr Horrible/How I Met Your Mother is somewhat (or completely) awesome, you might enjoy this video of the Confrontation song from Les Miserables.

Just saying.

Also, you know what? In just a bit over a month, it will be . . . . 2010. And you well know what happens 2010. It is THE year ... *wait for it* THE YEAR that Alice will be out. BURTON'S ALICE
Just saying.

(I typed all of that out. I didn't copy-paste. That's how hardcore I am. I really can't wait.)

ALSO you know what?! The Happy Meal-toys on McDonalds here in Sweden the last couple of weeks have been ... STAR WARS-themed!! I don't think I can fully explain how excited this made me. I've collected most of them, so I now have a miniature Yoda who will answer Yes or No-questions if you flip him over and it will be impossible to explain how, but there's this little 'window' on his bottom which will show a symbol of you gaze into it and ... thereby you may see what he thinks of your question. Does that make sense? Doesn't matter.
I also now have a miniature R2D2, that ACTUALLY projects images onto flat surfaces. :] It's so cool. It projects pictures of C3PO, Darth Vader, an ewok, himself, a Startrooper and Chewbacca ... This is the most awesome series McDonalds has ever had. I also have Obi-Wan's starship, and just today I got Darth Vader's mask, which opens up in two and becomes a labyrinth-game and as you open it, it breathes. :D

We never talk on the Ning anymore!
I watched The Butterfly Effect 2 btw. It was absolutely horrible.
At 8:13am on May 12, 2009, Director Danny said…
Doing absolutely nothing definitely sounds like the perfect holiday! Star Wars camp sounds pretty ideal as well. :]
I don't have any bigger plans either... I'm probably going with my parents to Germany a few days. I'll see how that goes. (: Then I hope I can just hang around here and enjoy the delightful Swedish summer. I'm really excited about a trip I'm going on in December, though. I'm going to Indonesia to visit my grandparents. It'll be nice. It's warm and there's a lot of cheap shopping. (;

Don't worry. I realise the comment was much too long to be remembered. It happens to me too. ^_^
It's quite annoying also that I was more or less inactive on the Ning during the time of this acronym craze. I could have contributed so greatly, but alas, I was busy. I wish I'd at least been around to illustrate one of them, but no, no...

And English essay? What was it about? I did something similar a few days ago... It was alright, I suppose. Living in Sweden, the requirements of a good English essay aren't sky high.
STILL SNOWING?!?!?!!11+ Really? Because I'm currently staring at a furiously blooming cherry tree outside the computer room window at school. It's quite pretty. Possibly just a little bit too pink, but it's still rather pleasant in the sun, I find. :)
Well, that is a rather epic fail. Where is it that you live again?
I'm rather okay too, although quite... sneezing. Despite how pretty the blooming flowers are, it gives me serious allergies. Tiny chickens in my head. It's very infuriating. Otherwise, things are find. School is cooling down, there isn't an insane amount of homework anymore, I'm prepping for going on Summer holidays in a bit more than a month... I cannot wait!
