Just watched Cyrano de Bergerac and it was excellent. It's been a very long time since a movie made me cry. The last one I remember was Little Women when Beth died - I managed to eek out a few tears for that. Or maybe that was the book...

The wind is blowing strongly outside. I love the wind, I really do, which is good since I live in Wellington, but I could do without it making my building sway enough to make me slightly queasy, especially since I no longer possess the wrist bands I used to wear to prevent car-sickness. I should take in the lemon and ginger tea we're not drinking... work would be a useful place to abandon it.

I passed my Estates test acceptably well. Have a lot of work to do before the final exams in a month. I really should have done some work on it tonight, but didn't feel like it. Oh, well. And we have a week's break next week! No making up time for an entire week. Awesome!

Which version did you watch? The 1950 masterpiece, or the still-acceptably good 1990 version with Gerard?

The one with Gerard. Hmmm, I'm going to have to watch the 1950 version then.

OMG SPOILERZORS CUT PLS ;D

Seriously though, I could usually get through Little Women - it's always The Railways Children that sets me off.
