☆ 026 ; plastic, fantastic!

I've got some official business to do today-- below are download links to PDFs of the outlines for the 4x4: Lingua Franca website and the IARC Study Abroad website, and a database of the schools we can send our students to. These represent the content that will be going on the sites.

I was also thinking while I was making the database that there has to be a cool way to represent this, so I modified the study abroad site a little with a map graphic. The graphic will be clickable (I hope iWeb can do this). The dark orange designates countries that have universities that UNCG has a direct exchange with, the middle orange for UNCEP connections, and light orange for ISEP connections. I'm thinking that they should be all the same orange, though, as I will be delineating which countries have which connections in the written portions, and some countries have both UNCEP and ISEP connections. And I didn't notice this until now but I totally spelled "discipline" as "disciple" roflwut.

Time for some more recommendations! I don't have a book this time around because I haven't really had the chance the read, but I've got a wonderful artist and a movie I want to share.

[a] movie ROUGH CUT This is a recent Korean action movie starring So Ji Sub, who is just amazingly awesome and play his part so well. I can't find an English subbed trailer, but it's about a failing movie star who can't find someone to act with him in an action movie because he's too much of a liability. He asks a gangster that he had met previously, and the gangster agrees only on the condition that all the fight scenes are real. It follows the rise and fall of both characters, and the ending is just stunning.



[b] music single チャイナ・ディスコティカ BY AIRA MITSUKI Jtek fun explosion! I love listening to her voice and the beat and flow of the songs on this single. It's addicting and makes me want to dance and wish I could sing along. Her whole discography is pretty swell but I especially like this song.
