my day revolved around a couple beds. my roommate needed a bed, so i hooked him up with a friend who was selling hers because she was getting a new one. so in the morning i sat in her apartment to wait for her new bed to arrive... in the meantime, i chilled and disassembled her old bed for my friend. later, i had lunch with pat and caught a movie with him and an old school friend jeanette. we watched my beautiful girl, mari, as part of the new york korean film festival.



even though i dozed off for a couple minutes towards the end of the film, i enjoyed it. the animation was cool... some of it seemed like painted-over, live-action film. i liked the character drawings too... very simple, but stylized. the story seemed to follow the typical leisurely-paced, asian art-house flick. it's basically about a boy-- a dreamer like amelie-- who flashes back and forth between real life and a fantastical cloud world. he, nam-woo, is also having to deal with his best friend moving away to seoul. it's definitely good to see some quality animation coming out of korea... not just the in-between work that's pumped out for american shows (like the simpsons and futurama, etc)

anyways, after the show i had some jja-jjang myun and picked up the bed to take home. i've been cleaning my apartment a little since then. i'm beat and am going to sleep like a baby tonight.
