And shepherds we shall be,
for thee my Lord for thee,
power hath descended forth from thy hand,
that our feet may swiftly carry out thy command.
We shall flow a river forth to thee,
and teeming with souls shall it ever be.

In nomine patri, et filii, et spiritu sancti.



Just watched Boondock Saints, a movie that i had never heard of before Dennis sent it to me, told me it's a great movie, and the fag hasn't even watched it yet.

Oh well, turned out to be a fantastic action-comedy movie! You should all go watch it, somehow. Got all my favourite elements, tattoo-sporting gun-toting irish-speaking vigilante brothers fucking over organised crime syndicates. Hahaha the irish accent is bloody cool, think Brad Pitt in Snatch but more coherent.

So anyway, a short synopsis of it would be two irish guys somehow, falling into the lot of being avenging angels (hence, saints) who fight fire with fire, killing off mobsters and stuff. They run into a brilliant gay FBI agent (played by the green goblin), who empathizes with them and decides to help, instead of arresting them.

The filming style is pretty unusual, the script banking heavily on flashback techniques, but the coolest part of the show is how they're sorta like christian hammers (think Hitman), so they make the sign of the cross before any action and chant this prayer before offing someone, plus, there's the Greco-Roman tradition of putting two pennies over the eyes of a corpse to send him off with money for the boatman, ala Troy.

Bah, just watch the show la, it's kickass!

Kk, the blog portion of this post. Not much been happening, slacking in school this whole week, crap, everything's piling up.

Been having revelations about life recently, epiphanies popping all over, about love, friendship, life, whatever man... just feel more optimistic on one hand, but also feeling jaded, the cynicism that age brings... heh.

Oh yeah, more resolutions.... not to play LAN for at least another month, damn sian of it. not to waste time with people i don't give a shit about. and lastly...be honest! with everyone about everything!
