I'm working part-time as an english teacher now and still studying to try and pass a test to get into a public health job. And to boot, i'm taking Italian lessons (one of the freebies of the school i work in, you get to take classes in other languages for free).

And since my computer is missing a video card at the moment, both because i'm broke at the moment since i already had to spend over R$700 just to get this bitch running again (new mobo +RAM +cpu +case) and don't really feel like getting a video card that will barely hold up games made 4 years ago when there's a new generation about to come in less than 3 months, i've turned to movies.

With that in mind, i also bought a dvd player with divx playback and am trying to work down my backlog. I must have over 60 movies i downloaded a whyle ago and haven't touched yet.
I'm also meaning to watch a couple of cartoons i nabbed the full runs to.

Thundercats - Mega Awesome, i'm planning to watch at least two episodes a day of that.
Batman the Animated Series - Best Comic book based cartoon EVER. My only gripe is that the DVDs were released with the episodes in airing order, which was completly and utterlly fucked up in regards to cronological order. There's even episodes that are a direct continuation of the other that are fucking 5 episodes apart! Assholes.
Swat Katz - Damn cool, just finished watching it this week. Fucking shame they only had such a small run.
Naruto - I'm kinda on the fence about catching up with this. I stopped watching some 2 years ago, back in episode 140something, when the main story was actually happening. I heard that up untill this whole Naruto Shipuuden thing started, it's all been cheese filler.

I do miss gaming though. Fucking shame, i can't even play Morrowind or Paikiller at more than 20fps. I think i'll dig up some REALLY old shit to pass the time when i don't feel like being a passive observer to a movie.

All work and no play makes me..., well, you know the rest.
