Hurm...

In an attempt to stop thinking about RL, I am watching "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" on TV.

It's such a wacky movie. But I still love Everlasting Gobstoppers.



Told mom about the apartment thing. She was not pleased, but now she's pushing more for me to move in with those People Whom I Don't Know. She'd much rather I move in with them than get my own place. At the moment, that would be cheaper, but still...

... the idea of moving in with people that I don't know at all freaks me out, even if they're retired Filipino dentists.

*sighs*

Hopefully I can find a place that will fit in with my budget, which is hard. It would be better if I had a roommate. Maybe I should skulk around the university postings.

Funny. My friends and I were just talking about the Seven Deadly Sins in that movie yesterday. It's hard pinning Anger and Lust, though.

Well, Lust would be Slugworth, since he's the one who wants the Everlasting Gobstoppers.

Anger... Wonka? At the end when he explodes at Charlie?

Who did you come up with anyway?

That's actually who we picked, and why we picked them. We got results, but still, those two could fit a number of the characters.

Anyhow, here's the list:

Augustus - Gluttony
[The kid is always eating, and he's rich to the point where his family is extravgant.]

Violet - Pride
[She brags about everything, as does her father. Ref: The interview scene, where she's going on about how she chewed one piece of gum for X number of days - which, of course, was longer than her friend Cordelia.]

Veruca - Avarice
[The whole scene in the goose egg room pretty much sums it up. "I want everything, and I want it now!"]

Mike TV - Sloth
[He does nothing except sit in front of the TV.]

Charlie - Envy
[He's always wishing for a better life, and he even gets on his own case about the golden ticket - that it doesn't happen to kids like him because he's poor.]

Wonka - Anger
[Not only does he blow up at the end, but when each kid goes, he has a lackluster attempt at helping them, one in such a matter that could be consider as snide and a result of a tempered anger. Ref: The scene where Augustus falls into the chocolate river. "Help. Help."]

Slugworth - Lust
[He wants the gobstopper, and is willing to pay top dollar for it's secrets. Besides, he's creepy.]

What if you can move in with the People You Don't Know just for two weeks, until you can get that apartment with S-chan?

That's an idea, but then I'd have to move all my stuff out AGAIN, at the beginning of the semester when I'll be really stressed. I'd rather choose one place and be done with it.
