Right now, I am doing my homework. English, to be precise- research on Blood Donations. When asked what I knew about blood donations, I immediatly burbled "Sean Bean's on the adverts!" which has gotten me a reputation about being obsessed with Sean Bean (Argh! Knitting circle!). Therefore, I am now getting research that has nothing to do with Sean Bean, and all to do with the actual blood giving, and it also included me nabbing my Mum's blood donor stuff. It's so useful having a mother who's A+, so they're always desperate for her to donate, and always send her letters. (There are bad sides, namely the whole thing about doctors getting freaked out that I might have weirdass blood too, even though I don't)

I also have to do some stuff about the Hutton Enquiry, and I need to write out my peom, but the poem is all of five lines long (huzzah for imagist, I say) and politics isn't in until Friday anyway. The lovely part about Mondays (there has to be something) is that I have two and a half hours free in the middle. Hence the fact I'll do my politics research on the college computers then.

Andrew is supposed to be coming around later. I'm bored, though, and quite fancy going out somewhere. He is reading this, or so he says. *waves at Andrew, before shouting* "OIY! ANDREW! Have some money for a change, I know for a fact you were working on Friday! Come on, I'll pay. I'm just booooored! Oooh! Lets go and see The Sin Eaters or something! Hell, I'll pay, I've done overtime so I'll get it back eventually..."

Please respond if you're reading this, Andrew dear.

In other news, loneraven isn't feeling well. *huggles* Colds are crap, although I seem to be fairly healthy at the moment. (Egads)

Thats about it, really.

Well, I actually did go and see The Sin Eater. First problem- the title. I had no idea what it was called. The internet said The Order, which seemed to be the same film, so off we toddled to Liverpool, where we were informed that there was no film called The Order on. So we tried again said "Sin Eater!" which he also didn't understand. We got tickets by pointing at the advert, in the end. Oiy.

So, in we toddle to see the film. Oh, wow. I didn't actually know what it was about, only that Heath Ledger was in it, the "Lucas Buck Just Killed Merlyn, The Bastard" pose was on the poster and that it invovled a priest. Never was to pass up media that casts the Catholic Church in a bad light, I became keen to see it.

So, what was it actually about? It's about a priest, it's about an arcane order that makes the Jesuits look like panises (for those that don't know, Jesuits are the SAS of the priest world, brought in during the Reformation to pull people back to Catholicism. Bodily.), and it's about some very, very medieval practicies. Oh, and it also has demons, someone who might actualy be a demon but we're not sure and lots of things about the nature of the Catholic Churhc today. I wont spoil it, but I will recommend it. Very, very, very good film- dark, twisted, supernatural whilst remaining firmly fixed on the here and now.

(Also a slight political Catholic reference- the Pope is dying and the successor might be an American. Gasp!)

So, yeah. I enjoyed it.

I have to go and pack a bag for college and sort out my folders in about an hour. Oh, yay. I quite fancy another day off. Maybe I can sleep in my free period...?
