Waking up at 1 really shortens a day. At 6 I felt myself wondering where the day had gone, and it was a tad disorientating. To replenish my wardrobe for school, we stopped off at the thrift store and I found about twenty things I wanted which I cut down to a meager five. I also had a hellish dentist's appointment. Apparently I had a lot of plaque on my teeth or something because my dentist held up a tooth brush and said 'Do you have any idea what this is?'. His sass was not needed, and he proceeded to scrape at my teeth with his little metal instruments, all the time shaking his head disapprovingly. Tonight my dad and I went to see District 9 in Gardner, and I really enjoyed it. The film would probably be categorized as sci-fi but it was a lot more interesting and elaborate than that. It was filmed in the shanty towns of South Africa and was more of a commentary on the issues of race and discrimination. Daylight by Matt and Kim

Which thrift store did you go to? I hate when the dentist does that. And then in the few days following you actually have determination to floss.. but then you go back to your natural ways of hygiene. I felt the same way about District 9! Very much a metaphor to the Holocaust..
