It’s raining a little right now and it’s getting dark outside. I’ve just
been for a walk in the rain — I’ve found out that a little walk helps me
clear my mind. It’s refreshing to go for just a little walk around the
neighbourhood of [Skejbygård][]. So instead of just sitting in front of
my computer without anything particularly interesting to do, I go for a
walk. I’ve even heard that it should be healthy to walk around like
that…
Tonight the rain also did its part to cool my brain, and it was
particularly nice to get away from the smell of French fries which filled
my little appartment after my dinner… That’s the downside of having a
kitchen and a living-room without any seperation: It’s hard to go
somewhere else :-) But then on the other hand: if I didn’t have my own
kitchen, then I would have to do the dishes every night instead of just
doing them once every few days.

I saw IMDB:Reign of Fire (2002) today together with Andreas Danielsen
and Lars Petersen from my class as University of Aarhus. To put
it short: it’s an action movie with a weak plot and that’s about it, so
there’s really no need to for you to go and see this movie…
One of the strange things about the movie is that it doesn’t bother to
explain the details of how the dragons managed to destory the Earth. You
see how our main character is present when they awake, but then the movie
jumps forward 20 years to a time where the dragons rule the Earth. It
simply places you right in the middle of the action where our main
character has to defeat the dragons. It would have been nice to have had
some more background.

Today I went and saw IMDB:The Bourne Identity (2002) together with
Jesper Klintø and Christina Strøhl from my hallway here at
[Skejbygård][] and Louise, Camilla and Kira. We had talked about seeing
the movie for some time, and it turned out that today was the last day it
was running.
I liked the movie a lot. It’s a solid action movie with all the things you
would expect from an action movie: a nice car chase, good fight scenes, a
hero that can deal with almost everything, and some high-tech scenes. The
movie also had some moments where everybody in the movie theater held
their breath because the music signaled that the bad guys could come any
moment now… and when they finally came, everybody jumped from their
seats!
As in most other action movies, then there’s also a love story in the movie
— the love story in this particular movie is somewhat weak, but it helps
drive the movie forward. So, all in all I like the movie, and I think you
should go see it if you still have the chance.
