Recently I have come to find that my good friend, Sahan, closely resembles some famous ethnic icons. Prime example: Kevin Gnapoor from the All-American classic Mean Girls, and M. Night Shyamalan who is a famous director that you may have heard of in the past.
Basically, I believe that Sahan also possesses some key characteristics from each of the said stars. Kevin G. is a full-time badass extraordinaire. M. Night makes confusing, depressing movies that are thought to be some of the best directed of all time. (I disagree, though; Sahan claims he will be better so I believe him.)
Now, Sahan "hates" me for saying all of these very kind things. But sometimes I catch him googling images of M. Night AND Kevin G., just to give himself a glimpse of the future. They are truly his source of inspiration and I know that he will be able to work toward the end result of being the most badass Sri Lankan filmmaker to roam the planet.
Every time someone on this earth watches Mean Girls, they definitely let Sahan know. You can tell someone has just viewed this movie by browsing (or creeping) on his Facebook wall. "OMG SAHAN YOU TOTES LOOK LIKE KEVIN G. FROM MEAN GIRLS!!!!" From girl who's already pointed this out forty-seven times in the past
Yeah yeah yeah. Sahan should honestly be flattered. Everyone knows that rap that Kevin does on stage is professional business. He should learn how to accept his awesomeness immediately so that everyone can get on with their lives and with the viewing of Mean Girls.
Sahan also is an amazing film maker. If you ever get the chance to view one of his short videos, you're truly lucky. He makes them with such a passion that you can tell this is what he enjoys to do. Everything is perfect. He has the making to replace M. Shyamalan with even better movies for the future to enjoy! Most of the Earth's population would agree that there's too much hype in M. Night's movies. The Happening was only good to me because Mark Whalberg used to be hot when he was younger.
Well after getting this off of my chest, I lost a cup size. And if I am never to be seen again, it's probably because Sahan kidnapped me and is holding me hostage in his basement. Or something like that.
Yeah! Sahan Jayawardena for President ya'll! I'm outty.

The Impossible Game
Let me have the pleasure of introducing you to the best game ever invented. The Impossible Game. Not only is this game incredibly entertaining, but it takes an elite form of gamer to exhibit the patience and determination needed in order to complete it.
Let it be clear: I am not said elite gamer. I was first introduced to this game while hanging out at my good friend Elaena's house this time last year, (we played Rockband amongst other games on the constant) when her brother - the always amazing Ben Hoekstra - suggested that we try out The Impossible Game. We all were sitting around in a group as we launched the game in complete awe and wonder.
At first glance this game contains nothing more than cubes and triangular spikes that you must avoid by pressing a single button to jump each obstacle; it's incredibly basic in design. Accompanied by some BAMF techno rave music, you must jump each block, triangle, or solid navy line in order to progress through the game. If you hit any of these obstacles, you go all the way back to where you started in the very beginning. Trust me, it sucks.
Another downside is that the game has its own built in "Attempt #" counter, which makes you feel all the more pathetic once you find that you've "attempted" winning this indie game 1904 times. It's even more pathetic when someone's recording you play it. Facebook is a powerful thing when it wants to be.
Not only is this game a great workout for your brain, it's also one for your thumbs. Dakota Osegera found it to be an excellent source of training for the Thumb War Championship, which makes no sense at all because clearly there is no such thing as a Thumb War Championship... This game comes attached with too many swear words (as do many, many other games), frustration, and overall a good time to be had with the people you're closest to.
I have not yet beat this wonderful game, but I've gotten extremely close. I'm looking forward to that day where I finally do complete it. This is without a doubt a quality game, and if you're looking for a challenge you should purchase this fine piece of software at the Xbox Marketplace. It's worth 80 Microsoft Points, or $1.
You're welcome.
