Matt sent me a text yesterday saying his parents knew he wanted to take his PS3 and HDTV so they packed them up all ready to go back with him! Epic win! I would have been happy with just a PS3 but it actually looking sexy on the screen is going to be a win! So now, I cannot wait until monday! Which isn't something you hear very often.
Lewis came over yesterday, still no plug so we won't get it until monday now. Instead we played Zelda and managed to complete it together. The last boss on that is such a glitch. You can defeat Ganandorf with a fishing rod and yes, I'm serious. It's rather funny! Lewis was so annoyed with the fact his plug wouldn't work he took a knife to it and tried to carve out the plastic bits that were stopping the plug from going into the system (it's rather hard to explain). Me and Ellie stood back when he plugged it in but as I suspected, it didn't work, or blow up for that matter.
Lewis asked what we were doing tonight. We hadn't a clue what to do so we decided to see what was on at the cinema. I was reluctant to go because of money but at the same time I love the cinema. First we stumbled across "Men who stare at goats" it didn't really appeal that much to me but then we saw Harry Brown was on. As soon as I saw it was Michael Caine, I was interested. We read the synopsis and all agreed we wanted to see that at 9:30pm. Lewis needed some milk and Ellie wanted to buy some chocolates for her aunt so we took a quick trip to the local shop. Afterwards, Lewis went home to have dinner as did me and Ellie. We met up later on to walk to the cinema. Luckily it had stopped raining but it was very windy. Lewis didn't seem his usual self. He was quiet and just didn't look right. I asked if he was okay and he said he'd just been speaking to an old friend he hadn't seen in ages so I guessed it was something to do with being home-sick or something. Maybe he is still worrying over his course, I'm not sure but I hope he's okay.
There was a huge queue at the cinema, thank God for trailers! I was tempted to get ice-cream but I didn't want to waste my money so I resisted the urge. When we walked into the screen, an Uncharted 2 trailer was playing! Why does the world taunt me? Everytime I go into ASDA they're promoting some sort of game over the tanoy! Ahh well, we sat down and watched some silly adverts followed by some excellent looking film trailers. Oh I love films.
Harry Brown is an intense film. It's about an old man, his wife is in hospital. He spends his days sat in the pub drinking beer and playing chess with his old friend, Len. They both live on this awful estate, a tower block full of yobs. Everyday he looks out his window to see a new crime happen. And it is shocking. The film really takes your breath away, especially when you see something like a man trying to defend a group from stealing his car. They beat him up, kicking him in the head, his wife comes out screaming at them, they run away to leave a sobbing wife trying to help her husband. His head is split open and there is blood everywhere. The imagery in this film is so strong and incrediable. It's hard to watch at times and even when the film had first began, I was very, very close to tears. It's horrible to think there are areas like that in Britain right now. I won't give away anymore of the film but I'll put it this way, Harry Brown is no ordinary old man. He kicks arse! And yet again, Michael Caine is brillaint. He doesn't have to say much but you get so much emotion from him. I would really recommend this film. Go and see it right now!
Lewis loved the film and wanted to be like Harry Brown afterwards, typical!! Ellie liked it too. As soon as the film ended, I breathed out and just went: "Fuck". It really was that intense! We talked about how awesome it was all the way home. Lewis came back to our kitchen for a bit and realised it was 12! Both Ellie and Lewis needed to get a train in the morning but Ellie would be back in the evening. We had some tea then all went to bed at 1. Lewis was still a bit quiet, me and Ellie still knew something was up but him being a man, wouldn't tell us. Ahh well, he's seeing Emily today so I'm sure he'll cheer up or talk things out with her.
I really need to have a shower! It's gone 12 and I'm just so lazy I haven't had one yet. So on that note, goodbye!

"I wish for this night-time to last for a lifetime. The darkness around me, shores of a solar sea. Oh how I wish to go down with the sun, sleeping, weeping, with you."
