larkworth recommended Whip It to me, which I think would make a fine double-feature with Zombieland (which I have also yet to see).

In the meantime, I'm downloading:

I ♥ Mélanie Laurent, the only downside is the torrent has no english subtitles.

Speaking of French, I have experience with the language, having taken French classes for nearly a year in elementary school, along with more of it in junior high, then taking French all through high school. I can notice translation errors in subtitles and scan articles and get the gist of it, but I really would like to become as fluent as possible and not let all those years of learning the language go to waste. There are many learning programs available, but I think I'll get back on track with this: http://www.smartfrench.com/Products.php
On top of all of this, I've been writing more Shosanna/Fredrick nonsense which I plan in posting this week. I also have my phobia piece for the November 13 art show and there's a pile of books I want to get to reading, but I've been stuck on Brideshead Revisited. Frankly, I'm not fond of Evelyn Waugh's writing style (the same issue my father has with him), but I adore Sebastian Flyte and Anthony Blanche, as Waugh's style beautifully suits them. However, I want to read Rilke, Pragmatism: A Reader, The Bhagavad Gita, and bell hooks. I've always enjoyed reading non-fiction, and with my fictional-character quota currently filled by those tragic kids from Inglourious Basterds, I'm going back to tackle my pile of books and put Sebastian on hold, for now.

I feel like a worthwhile member of society when I have piles of things to do/occupy me.
