Things blow over easy back in my hometown, but for some reason, everyday has been a soap opera since I've arrived down here in the bay area. I really don't get the people here =_= A lot of people have this "All Mighter Than Thou" sort of attitude, I've seen more alcoholics (or at least heard about them more) than I would like, my roommate is related to royalty and acts like it, and there are days when I'm just miserable. People are toxic and it's driving me up a wall.
I really need to move out on my own. It's not that I don't like living with other people, but when they throw restrictions at me and also try to rule over me is when I just get so tired of them. I don't need unnecessary drama in my life.

Academy Awards & Slumdog Millionaire
I should be sleeping so I'll make this brief, but...
The Academy Awards show this year was the best thing I've seen since Billy Crystal hosted. Hugh Jackman was a hit and awards were given to people who actually deserve the awards this year. I didn't watch Slumdog Millionaire before the awards show, but it really piqued my interest after seeing them win eight awards, so I watched it today and I was just blown away.
The story was great, Dev Patel's acting really captured the audience's attention and I felt that they really did pick the right guy for the role of Jamal Malik. The direction and cinematography was kind of artsy -- like art house movies -- but it was just so good. The music is catchy too so I'm just playing all the songs on repeat. This movie is the best thing I've seen in a while and I really did feel drawn to the film. My emotions were totally messed with while watching the film, when it came to sad parts, I felt my heartstrings tug, and when it got to happy parts, I felt myself tear up. It's a sweet story with just the right dosage of darkness and melodrama. It is totally my type of movie and I enjoyed it immensely. Highly recommend people watching it.

Life is Complicated
Sometimes, life really isn't at all that complex, but lately I just feel as though it's gotten pretty complicated. Unfortunately, I'm so worn down from everything that's going on around me, that all I can really say is that life exhausts me =_= *sigh* Wish I could go into more detail, but I'll probably have to save it for another day. I need some sleep to be ready for tomorrow =_=
The working world of adulthood sucks =_=
