7:38 PM

Yesterday i went to work for Phillip's dad. I can't say i enjoyed it all that much, but i can't say i didn't enjoy it; it was better than school. And it all paid off, as i got $160. I saw Greatest Hits: My Prerogative sheet music book in Dymocks for only $20 (since it was damaged), i was going to get it, but now that i've come to think of it; if Chris said that Everytime wasn't suitable, and it was exactly the same as the one in the book, the others wouldn't be suitable either. I can safely say that when i got home yesterday, my whole body ached, and i ended up going to bed at about 9:45pm. The pain is nearly gone, but it still hurts my palms whenever something hot touches them. You're probably thinking, what the fuck, doesn't Phillip's dad work in an office. Yes, in a newly-moved-into office with most of the clients' files still in boxes.


{{ Before we start about Buffy: Amaray Box Set --- DVD Box Set (3-disc) [non-amaray] ;; 6 disc (non-amaray) is just like 2 normal sized DVD cases stuck together to make a big one. }}


Today i woke up at about 9:30am and i left for Eastgardens to see When A Stranger Calls at around 11:40am. The movie was good, i'd give it 8/10. The storyline was slow, but funnily enough, never boring; i think i was just glad to be in the comfortable cinema seats. I looked all over Eastgardens for Buffy Season 2 (6 disc box set). Nowhere had it, it's even on Ezy Dvd's website, but the Eastgardens store know nothing about it. David Jones had part 2 (amaray) for a whopping $80 (but reduced to $54). I found this stupid, as i could get the 6 disc edition for $60. Although, amaray is rare nowadays. When i got home, i started ringing around, Sanity in Randwick had Part 1 and 2 (non-amaray) for $30 each; which would add up to the 60 anyway for the 6 disc edition. I rushed there, never waited for a bus, and rushed back. I found it strange that they were only $30 each, as they have been discontinued and are pretty rare (not as rare as amaray though). I think i know the reasons now. The dvd cases were in bad condition and horribly dirty, and the discs seem dirty as well. I've watched one episode on my computer . . .

This became very annoying, i don't know if it's because the technology in 1996 was not that crash hot, because my computer is laggy, or because the discs are in bad condition.

I also noticed that since the footage is from 1996, the ratio aspect is quite small, and when you make it full screen, it goes fuzzy, not a lot though. But it's not what you would call typical DVD quality. Not to mention it's in full screen and not letterbox. (Although none of this has nothing to do with the disc quality, as my season 1 is like this as well.) Eg. look at the pixel size of this cap from season 7 to the previous cap i posted.

Seeing this screencap amazes me anyway, due to the fact that in this cap she is a woman, and in the episode i was just watching, she was only in year 11 (by Australian standards anyway).

All i know now is, that when i have the season 6 DVDs, my life is c o m p l e t e.
