Why today is the best day ever already at 5:30

1. I woke up today with the forceful obligation to do some homework.  Instead, I finished up my Kingdom Hearts II file that I started playing over winter break. It was fucking awesome.  The Kingdom Hearts games are probably my favorite series ever - I started with the first when it came out when I was in 5th grade and have been in love with it ever since, despite how admittedly gay it is.  The story is tight, the gameplay is ridiculously fun, and there's plenty of stuff to do.  All the time.  Recently I bought 358/2 Days for the DS and I've been working on that, although right now I'm only about 1/2 of the way done. 
   
2. My computer is a Sony Vaio, and despite the fact that Sony generally makes high-quality audio products, the built in speakers are absolute shit.  I remedied this by using the money I got for Christmas from family members to purchase some Bose Companion 2 speakers.  The difference in quality can't even be described in words, but I'll try.  Do you remember when you went to the circus as a kid and saw people doing some of the most insane stunts and acrobatics ever and you were completely dumbfounded?  That's pretty much what I feel like about my new speakers.  They aren't miraculous by today's standards, but they certainly are relative to what I'm used to.

Unfortunately I'm spending today by myself, so no, today probably isn't the best day ever, but it's way up there for sure.

While I'm at it though, I'll say that I watched the first part of this movie called Cashback the other day, which is like a British indie art film.  It wasn't very good, despite getting good reviews.  And I'm pretty sure it's not because I didn't "get it."  There wasn't much to get as far as I interpreted it.  The entirety of the 50 minutes of the movie that I watched was spent on a weird combination of a melodramatic breakup with the protagonist's girlfriend, which was accompanied by music you'd hear at the end of a tearjerker war film when somebody dies; confusing, unfunny slapstick, and him stopping time to draw pictures of all the smoking hot model women that happen to shop at the grocery store where he works after stripping them naked.
