No telling how long Un chien andalou will be on YouTube, but here it is, in all its glory. I just finished the reading about it for class tonight and STILL don't get this film. It just does nothing for me. I think the only thing I can say about this film in my 7 page paper is how is related visually to another film we've watched in class.

Over the weekend, I found out my brother wants to move to Atlanta to be with his friends. He was thinking about Emory, but that's out of the question. My father doesn't money to send him to a private college. I told him about Georgia State University. It's in Atlanta and it's a public school. My brother is now of the business to make As all the semester to raise his GPA to try to transfer to a school in the Altanta area. That reminds me, there is Kennasaw State in the area, too. If he can't get into GSU, he can try Kennasaw. Oh, I they have a new public college in Gwinnett county as well. For sure there are public schools in the area and won't have to go too much into debt to attend.

This morning, we got some painful news about the A/C. It's going to cost $9,500.00 to replace the A/C unit, duct works, and the whole shebang. My dad became depressed about it. I told him not to worry. It will all work out. We need this work done on top of a new bathroom. Damn old house! However, once we get a new unit it, it will be the right size for the house. The current one is not. We'll save on power. We'll just have one unit running instead of many window units. I'll talk to him later, but I told him to go for it. I guess with this little problem, we'll be getting the bathroom taken care of in a bit. I guess while the work is done, I'll be showering in the trailer or on campus in the rec center. Last night it was so hot, I moved into my mother's room to sleep with the A/C unit on in there. Looks like I'll have to do that again tonight.

Okay, off to read about Stagecoach and Hollyowood in the 1930s and 1940s.
