Fourth time's the charm

This week I had another Nihongo conversation with Kazuki, and I think I did a little better than last time (at least I wasn't so nervous). I had a notebook this time, so I wrote down tons of vocabulary and phrases, and he marked some of them for my "homework". I'm going to type up everything in hiragana and romaji just for a fun exercise! Yesterday I saw Revenge of the Sith for my fourth time, and this time my pals Chris, Eliza, Kristin & Carlos all went with me to the Galaxy Highland 10, Austin's only theater with a digital projector! I was really impressed with the picture - there's no "film" at all, just a true digital image. I thought it looked like a giant plasma screen! There was a storm during the movie, which made the power go out for a few minutes (the manager came in and said they would "reboot" the movie - cool!), and for a few seconds it came on again without sound. So, I started making lightsaber and R2-D2 noises, and I got a little applause from the audience! Today I had a nice lunch in the middle of a hectic work day - I did some sweatin' in the sun and finished the latest issue of Giant Robot. Tomorrow I'm going to a pro baseball game with my pal Barron - we're driving to Houston to see the Dodgers play the Astros! Of course, I'm a loyal Angels fan, but I'll be cheering for LA just because I'm a California lover. It's going to be a fun weekend! Labels: life
