Fordham Waiting Room Forum

[booboo]

(Again for Thursday, b/c I liked it so much on Wednesday....)

Estragon, sitting on a low mound, is trying to take off his boot. He pulls at it with both hands, panting. He gives up, exhausted, rests, tries again.
As before.
Enter Vladimir.

ESTRAGON: (giving up again). Nothing to be done.
VLADIMIR: (advancing with short, stiff strides, legs wide apart).
I'm beginning to come round to that opinion. All my life I've tried to put it from me,
saying, Vladimir, be reasonable, you haven't yet tried everything. And I resumed the
struggle. (He broods, musing on the struggle. Turning to Estragon.) So there
you are again.

Welcome back, Party People. Happy Thursday.

Excellent piece to take out, this was a funny/weird play. Definitely enjoyable. .

Wow, you guys are at it early this morning. I thought I was going to be the first one here.

I did get distracted by reading wtf happened at that TM thread though. Looks awesome.

Crazy, right?
Ya, I'm here early, today. I just have to think there will be some movement on the PT lists, today or tomorrow...

Let's hope so!

OK, time for self-analysis

I think I'm just kinda irked that there's nothing I can do at this point. When I was taking the LSAT, I could always study a bit more. When I was writing my PS, I could always tweak it or totally scrap it and start over. When I was hunting down my professors for LoRs I could always send them just one more nagging message.

Now I don't even know what to do with myself, because I can't think of anything else I could work on to help my app. I really should re-invest in my hobbies. Or get another girlfriend or something. Anything but...ya know, focus on my work.

Anyone else feeling this way?

Yeah, basically. That's why we're all here in the waiting room. At this point we could have started a book club and read 3 books (one per month)!

Ugh, I've been like 50 pgs away from the end of World War Z for like 2 or 3 months at this point. There's a stack of books I've been accumulating on my shelf that I keep meaning to read, but that hasn't happened.

Instead, I finally watched Rushmore last night. I enjoyed it.

I could also productively use this time to update my Netflix.

Ha, I actually read World War Z last month. Pretty good read. I heard that it's going to be made into a movie.

[even2flow]

Yeah I heard that too, I have no idea how they can effectively do that. I was thinking either do the story of the war, or do the interviews and tell it through flashbacks, but the books not totally chronological, so the movie would be all over the place.

Good zombie movie tho: 28 Days Later. Loved that movie, and I typically don't care for monster movies.

I loved World War Z. For some reason, it took me 6 months to read cover-to-cover, so it's interesting to me that you stopped 50 pages from the end. I think I did something really similar. I typically finish books of that length within a week or two.

I think the style it's written in is tough to stomach for long periods, and it's not too much action or suspense, so you're not really like "Oh crap, what happens next?" Because you know we eventually win the war, I'm at the part now where they're talking about re-taking the infected zones, so I dunno how its gonna happen (or if they went over it, I forgot about it), so I have some motivation to finish it, but get easily distracted. Doesn't mean I'm not enjoying it though, it's pretty cool despite my slow pace.

It took me about 60 pages to start enjoying it, but after that I was done in about 2 days. The stories just got so much more interesting as the book progressed. I loved the Japanese zombie-martial arts.

Oh you mean that blind dude who survived in the wilderness? that was pretty bad ass. Or the crazy lady who thought she was talking to MetsFan.

Haha please don't. I don't actually have a pony. And yes I am in at Fordham, got incredibly lucky on that one. I'm leaning towards GW for geographical and personal reasons, but I'd love to be in a class with y'all lovely folks next year
