Party Girl (1995)

I'm 20 minutes in and am already thinking about rearranging my four favorites on letterboxd. I love Parker Posey and want to be too hot to be a librarian all day. I missed buying tickets for the Valentine's Day showing at Vidiots but they added another show on Friday... my mouse hovers above the purchase button as we speak.

I rewatched little women

With my visiting older relative because I found out she’s Chalamet-pilled after taking her to see A Complete Unknown (do not really recommend but it did make me inexplicably horny despite being such a bland movie but maybe it was the guest-hosting-induced involuntary celibacy) and she is culturally impoverished so I had to get something of some substance in. On New Year’s Eve she made us watch Holidate despite the fact that she had already seen it and she told us the entire plot during the first ten minutes then proceeded to explain everything that was about to happen throughout the movie. Luckily there wasn’t a lot to spoil there and the viewing experience could not have been worse to begin with. Have yet to watch Babygirl which is unjust but I will remediate this. Apologies for the stream-of-consciousness tangent I’m still processing

2010-2012… what a time

* Tiny Furniture (2010), dir. Lena Dunham — Girls before Girls!!! “After graduating from film school, Aura (Lena Dunham) returns to New York to live with her photographer mother, Siri (Laurie Simmons), and her sister, Nadine (Grace Dunham), who has just finished high school. Aura is directionless and wonders where to go next in her career and her life. She takes a job in a restaurant and tries unsuccessfully to develop relationships with men, including Keith (David Call), a chef where she works, and cult Internet star Jed (Alex Karpovsky).” * Young Adult (2011), dir. Diablo Cody — one of my favorites… “Mavis Gary (Charlize Theron) is a successful writer of teen literature who returns to her hometown with a dual mission: to relive her glory days and steal away her now-married high-school sweetheart (Patrick Wilson). However, her mission does not go exactly to plan, and she finds her homecoming more problematic than she expected. Instead, Mavis forms an unusual bond with a former classmate (Patton Oswalt), who has also found it difficult to move past high school.” * Frances Ha (2012), dir. Noah Baumbach — the dinner party scene especially is so real “A story that follows a New York woman, who doesn't really have an apartment. She apprentices for a dance company although she's not really a dancer, and throws herself headlong into her dreams.”

Going on multiple hikes a week

It’s free and brought my overall anxiety down. After spending all my hours in front of a screen (work or voluntary), it’s nice to be apart of something bigger, fresher, and that’s actually beautiful. It’s also nice to bring my friends along for morning hikes because it bonds us outside of usual nightlife stuff or things where we don’t have to talk to each other. More accessible activities (for people who don’t conveniently live somewhere where mountain bike tourism is a real thing) includes waking up super early and also doing yoga. I usually wake up at sunrise which gives me a bunch of free time (for half a year).

Read your friend’s resumé

I remember the feeling as a child being confused what my parents actually do at work all day. That feeling of not knowing has now transferred to my friends. Getting to read their resumé is like a form of hearing their life story including all the niche, cool things they’ve done but weirdly never mentioned

Heart food / JUDEE SILL

This album has kept me from buying that one Amazon CBT workbook, screaming in my car, deleting my social media, etc. (I cannot promise the same results for you)
