new layouts galore!

New journal layout! New colours to match the new site! Hooray!

OK I’m drawing far too much excitement out of something so small. Anyhow, I grew tired of black and gold, so I opted for white and blue! I was going to go blue on blue, but then things would have been tougher to see. Slightly on a tangent, yet still somewhat related to the topic, I’d like to point out that double blue were my high school’s colours! And on that note, I’m going to my old high school tomorrow to see a hockey game!

So anyways, last night I watched a movie. Kristin suggested that I watch Schindler’s List since I haven’t seen it before. It also happened to be one of the movies I have downloaded since I got home. Now, that was one very good movie. I was asked to tell her what I thought about it, and I did so in a rather wordy email. It is worthwhile, I think, to say some of the things here, too. But I’m going to summarize to spare my poor fingers from another hour or so of typing.

The movie had a lot of emotion to it; it made me feel a wide range of feelings. It was a rude awakening to see the cruelty and hatred that fueled the Nazi regime. But it is through darkness that light shines brightest; after all, what good is a flashlight in broad daylight? Indeed there was a light, and this character displayed incredible levels of mercy and care. His distinguished actions inspired me to try and be a better person. I’m not going to go into detail about how I’m going to do this since I wrote about it at length in that email already, but it’s not going to be easy; it involves breaking lifelong habits of mine, so the road will be both long and arduous. Wish me luck 🙂
