SLEEEEEEEP

Guess what! I did find friends who like to stay in and watch movies. I didn't even have to look very far, because they were RIGHT THERE. (Not all of them, but some of them just wanted to hang out (without drinking) tonight.) It was nice! So I was able to watch Zombieland. I never saw it before, so it was pretty nice. It was actually funny, but I was waiting for the moment when they mention how they won't miss Facebook updates. AND IT CAME. And I liked it.

My day was rather low-key. I went to the gym with my roommate and then just hanged around. I watched a bit of Ferris Bueller on tv, and took a very small nap. I need to sleep right now.

BUT. WHOAH. NEWS.

I walked in on my roommate with a guy in here. And she just wasn't hanging out with said guy. I was like ! and just closed the door and went back upstairs. "I'll come back later" was my response to what was a-happening. All I heard was when I was opening the door (thank god I was picking up something from the floor as I was doing this), "don't look up". I am GLAD I didn't. Sheesh. And I was tired! So I had to go watch some guys play some video games for awhile longer. Not so fun, I tell you.

BUT. The day was good otherwise. I actually got a HAMBURGER tonight for supper. This is the first time I had something meat-ish like that in awhile. Usually it's just been chicken, but... NOT TONIGHT.

Speaking of tonight, sleep.

P.S: I showed someone 'California Dorks' and they were like, no. And I was like ! BUT. Maybe it was because it was a PARODY of California Gurls? I don't know. But I was all, "I'm not saying anything else!" (But I ended up showing them Literal Harry Potter Trailer. He was surprised to hear that the last Harry Potter movie is being split into two. I was like, ?) BUT ANYWAY. Sleep!

I picked the movies I'm taking!

I have to make this quick, but today was okay. My dad and brother FINALLY left on their little trip, and all I can say is, TOOK YOU LONG ENOUGH! Seriously. They were supposed to go after my brother's grad. That's my dad for you.

He doesn't know the concept of time.

So today I went through my movies that I'm bringing to school. I ended up with about 53 of them. My mom took some away (Star Trek, Jurassic Park) but I got away with taking Harry Potter and Friends. I'll have to see what my brother and dad say to my selection later when they get home.

Hm. I don't think there will be much objections. Sure, they'll probably look for the Harry Potter movies in November when the movie is released, but... c'est la vie. That's all I can say, really.

Next up: My books.

Today at work, I watched Reba. Twice. It's a common thing.

It was a holiday today! I'm never usually aware of it, so it's not that exciting.

Plus, I had to work.

Fortunately, I got time and a half (?) due to working on the holiday, so that was okay enough. Yes. It wasn't that bad of a day, although it was a bit rushed. Plus my feet were sore. Actually, it's not my entire feet, but the middle part? The part above the heel, and below the toes... Commonly known as the arch area? YEAH. And I mention this to my mom, and she's all, "I TOLD you I would buy you shoes!" So... Yeah. I must get on that.

I know, I know! I should. (I am taking your advice, Leah! IT IS HAPPENING THIS WEEK.)

My sister just said that "Little Soldier" by Dave Days reminds her of The Princess and the Goblin. Have you ever seen it? I just did some research (on wikipedia) and it was a bad movie! I liked it, though. I haven't watched it forever and ever, though! If I searched a bit (or asked my mom), I'm sure I can find it. Maybe that's what I'll do...

PERHAPS.

Anyway, today was good. I watched a few episodes of Friends and Psych, respectively. I also had some pancakes, and cereal. It was a very Breakfast Filled Day. And now, when I think of the pancakes, I want to throw up. I think I'm just getting sick of pancakes... My parents make them too much! ALTHOUGH I know I say that now, but probably in a few months, I'd kill for my parents pancakes!

Oh. Yeah. Anyway.

AWKWARD WRITING MOMENTS.

Today on the way to work, I was listening to BOOK EIGHT. You know, over the speakers in the car? Anyway, I guess my mom wasn't REALLY paying attention until she heard "Dumbledore". She was all, DUMBLEDORE? Is this from Harry Potter? And I nodd my head, because, well, yeah! She asked, "but this isn't in the movie?" And I said no, because well, of course. Anyway, she asked who was singing it (Hank Green) and who he was. I was at a tricky bit: Do I try and explain the vlogbrothers? Or do I just say, some guy? I went with the second option. She commented on the fact he sounded like Phoebe Buffay. And the kicker is, my mom decided to clarify for me: "You know, from Friends?" WELL, OF COURSE PHOEBE IS FROM FRIENDS. Silly! Anyway, I said "folk?" and she said yes.

Ah yes, a morning conversation!

Anyway, I worked today. I missed the first phone call from my boss, so I had to phone her back. THIS is what happens when you don't JUMP out of bed as soon as the phone rings! SCAN.DA.LOUS. Sad. However, it is my LEGIT day off tomorrow, and I am excited! I am going to watch Veronica Mars, and ... eat a popsicle! I think I might have a popsicle in a few minutes, too! INTENSE.

Last night I was watching Alice in Wonderland, and it wasn't half bad. I only saw the first half, so for all I know, the ending could be horrible. I don't know. I will finish it today! Or tomorrow. I didn't really like the animated cartoon version from my childhood, but that's just me. I tried reading the book before as well, (there was a free app with books!) but I couldn't get into it. Maybe it was just because of the E-BOOK or maybe because of the storyline! My grade seven teacher was reading it to us at snack time (WE ARE COOL!), but he was told not to. Because we had a supply teacher, and it was at the part with the blue caterpillar, and it was all, "DRUG REFERENCE!" and you know, we got told. That was an awkward paragrah to write. But I don't want to go back and read it!

It's true.

Anyway, I must be off. TOODLES.

One of my favorites songs appeared in Made of Honor! I was surprised---oh you 'Henrietta!'

I watched a movie today! I never saw it before, so it was nice for three reasons: 1) I was able to watch something entirely new! 2) I didn't have that stupid feeling of wanting to shut off the tv halfway through or anything... And 3) I was able to disappear from my life for an hour and forty minutes.

The movie was MADE OF HONOR. I usually have this thing with movies: The previews will tell you how interesting the movie will be. Except I have to say that the previews for MADE OF HONOR were really stupid! I didn't enjoy them that much--they were lacking some interesting times! So the previews didn't really live up to the movie, as the movie was quite alright.

I have this way of sitting through movies, that makes my jaw sore. And it's really annoying! It's actually not just movies, but with television, too. TRAGIC. So I must get a new sitting position or something. It's true.

After the movie, I dyed my hair--I attempted alone at first, but my mom walked by, and saw I was struggling. SO SHE HELPED! And I was like to my mom, "I guess you know I won't dye my hair randomly next year..." Hah. YEAH. Although if I do, I wonder how that'll go down. My mom also suggested I should get a haircut soon, so I think I might! I won't get it too short, but also not too much, as a ponytail = amazing when I'm working.

Speaking of work, I go back tomorrow. I DON'T KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT THIS! I hope I don't get a ridiculous amount of rooms... And I hope it goes by fast! Yeah! Plus I *might* get my first paycheque, and that's cool! I will be able to start saving for LeakyCon! =) YEAH! I'm excited.

Although last night I got TOO excited about LeakyCon. I was spamming my friend with messages about it... And just, I don't know. I started planning, and even contemplated buying my registration thing TOMORROW! Of course, I don't know if I will, as the package I want, I don't think I'll be able to afford it just yet! BUT JUST YOU WAIT, PACKAGE!! Yes! I told my mom about LeakyCon, and how I'm GOING FORSURE. She's FINE with that, but she's skeptical on how I'm going to manage to save for it. This is where she talked about staying home for school, and how much I would've saved doing that. And she's right, I would've saved.

I even would've been able to go to Infinitus. SADLY, I think leaving home is more awesome right now. Although in reality, it's starting to be a sad thing! Oh well, too late for that. (Even though I want to go away!)

I'm just babbling at this point, because once I PUBLISH this, I'll have to go to sleep. Oh. SLEEP. I love you, but only when it's happening. Plus I feel like I want to listen to a podcast, but that'll just SLOW ME DOWN. Slowing me down means not enough sleep. I don't know. I think I *might* just stop this now... With an MLIA!

Today i vacuumed my lawn.why you ask? i just wanted to make my neighbors stare


Or...

Today, I realized how my opinion of dog catchers has been tainted by Disney movies. MLIA


Or...

Today, I was talking on the phone to my boyfriend. After 10 minutes of this, I realized that it was not my boyfriend, but his older brother. At the same moment, he realized that I was not some friend of his from college. We both hung up awkwardly. MLIA

Books!

Today, I bought a few books. The prices ranged from 99 cents to 2.99... So of course I was pleased! Although the 2.99 books were almost NOT BOUGHT, until I googled them: They were both together for suggested purchases! WHAT ARE THE CHANCES I FOUND THEM TOGETHER? Amazing.

I love finding books!

Anyway, this evening I saw Toy Story 3. I've been wanting to see it for awhile, so it was nice to actually see it. It was funny, but it was also sad. I don't really want to SPOIL IT per say, but the toys have a new home with a really cute girl! She wears RUBBER BOOTS outside when she plays! And you know when people do that, it's awesome.

Yeah, truth.

That was kind of spoiler-ish... But OH WELL.

Ah. So I work tomorrow. It's sad, because I don't know if I'm going to get ten rooms tomorrow... She said you work your way up to twelve, and I'm like ... BECAUSE IF GET TWELVE, I will *NOT* be able to do that. I can't even do TEN in my time frame! It's sucky. PLUS TOMORROW my REGULAR boss is going to be there, and she doesn't allow the tv to be on! At least on the weekends, my weekend supervisors don't mind! That's how I watched The Wedding Planner. AND some comedy special! YEAH. Ah tragic.

Mark my words: I am not going to last through this job all summer. If I do... I amaze myself.

Yeah.

BUT! I am going to USE MY RIGHT to REFUSE to do rooms where people are SMOKING! YEAH.! On the grounds that I don't want to deal with secondhand smoke! I asked my dad, and he said that would PROBABLY work... But trying to refuse rooms with THIRDHAND smoke is pushing it. Sigh.

I'm such a loser, sometimes. Hah.

Although Homer Simpson comes into mind: You don't like your job, you don't strike. You go in every day and do it really half-assed. That's the American way.

And I say THE CANADIAN WAY, TOO!

But I'm done.

Ooh, movie marathon!

So it was another day of Smart Mouths and just some general life times. I had a fangirl moment this afternoon when I added Penny, one of the hosts of Smart Mouths to twitter this afternoon. I mean, it wasn't even that big of a deal, but because her profile is private, I was actually able to SEE HER TWEETS when she accepted me as a follower!

COOL.

Plus I was looking at my homepage when it happened, so it was all "one new tweet" and BAM! IT WAS PENNY. I was excited.

Yes. She's obviously one of my favorite hosts, of course.

Actually, I just like Penny and Greg in general! For sure, they're my favorite couple, ever. I mean, this even bumps out Michael and Mia, because ... they're real? Sure. That makes sense.

Anyway!

Instead of being a loner this evening with Smart Mouth podcasts (and it's come to the point I hear them talking when I DON'T have headphone buds in my ears), I asked my brother if we could have a marathon of movies!

And he accepted.

So in our lineup, we have four movies. We're currently on our first one, The Dark Knight. If you haven't seen that movie, you should. It's very good! And while I first saw it because the guy I liked liked it, I still think it's pretty good! And I guess that's my recommendation for you!

Now, I must go back before my brother thinks I failed!

I made cookies that asked for six margarine squares!

Today I woke up around 3:30 with my sister phoning me. Due to having a phone in my room, it really CRAMPS my lifestyle. So after the ever so short phone call, I got up. I had a late lunch, and watched the end of a movie I was watching last night. I also watched a few episodes of Friends, and generally had a good time. I also did the dishes! But it was okay, because all there really was my forray into the general cookie making I did last night. Whoah. There was THREE cups of margarine in those cookies! Although that's just because I tripled the recipe: I'm crazy like that.

My brother was at his friends house, so I was home alone. Later, my dad came home. I shut off Friends, and he put on Independence Day. Is it just me, or am I the only one that confuses that movie with Mars Attacks? FERSRSLY. Halfway through the movie, my mom and sister came home.

She showed me her new phone, and I was like "cool". Ha, yes. After that, I started on supper and generally did that. I started to get nervous, because I'm always nervous when I have to cook some sort of MEAT: FOOD POISONING! Hopefully nobody gets that. *knocks on wood*

Tomorrow is Canada Day! AND it's the day the new HST comes into effect in Ontario and B.C. While there is a general opposition for the HST, I don't know. (I even had to do a debate for it last December.) While it's just combining the GST/PST we already have, it's adding taxes to some stuff we don't HAVE taxes on. And that's really sucky! Fortunately, books are staying the same. I don't know how unhappy I would be if the price went up ANY MORE.

So yeah!

Last night I watched Another Cinderella Story with my mom. I think my mom was about to leave, but she became captivated at Jane Lynch's character. I reallly cannot blame her: She's amazing. Ha, that movie was hilarious. I kept on thinking back on how Jane Lynch said that Selena Gomez broke both her legs: I kept on laughing at that. HILARIOUS! Yes!

Overall, good day and such. I still have to write my second chapter though... *slinks away to do so...?*

Hm.. ramblings! With some lyrics.

Hello!

I'm listening to music from Glee, and the only thing I want to do is SING! So I am... he will hold me fast... I'll be home at last! Not a loser, anymore like the last time! And the time before. Everybody loves a winner. So nobody love me. Lady peaceful, lady happy, that's what I long to be. All the odds are in my favor, somethings bond to begin.

ITS GONNA HAPPEN.
HAPPEN SOMETIME.
MAYBE THIS TIME, I'LL WIN.

ANYWAY...

back to our regular program...

Today I helped my mom with some stuff for her room. I also picked her some flowers, and watched a bit of Harry Potter. It was supaexciting. I also planned on a story I'm writing, and uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhm... Yeah. I had some cake!

I don't know!

It was raining today. INTENSE style!

I have THREE movies beside me: Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement, Penelope, and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Yeah! Have you seen all three movies? I HAVE.

Yes!

I like that I'm discovering things about things. It makes me happy. =)

I act like I'm a writer `cause I wrote one chapter...

Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen make weird movies. And when I say weird, I mean kind of successful, but kind of lame.

I'm watching Billboard Dad right now. Well, more like listening, not watching.

I wrote my first chapter! I wrote my first chapter!

While I'm not completely pleased with it, I'm kind of happy about it. I mean, I WROTE it! That's commitment. I didn't even put that much awesome into my NaNo or my Script Frenzy thing. So it's nice to know I'm doing this with my bestest friend... AS I can't let HER down! (More so than usual, I suppose.)

Truth.

Sadly, I didn't get a call back from my interview from yesterday, but that's okay! I'll keep on looking for something. Yes.

Today I mowed the lawn. I also watched Monsters vs. Aliens. I LIKE that movie! My brother thought I wouldn't, but I showed him! I loved how B.O.B. was all, essentially, "I love you" to the JELL-O. It made me laugh a LOT! Yes. I'm easily amused, apparently.

I like that I'm rediscovering my love for MUSE. It's nice! And I love that I'm making playlists for my writing. It sets the mood for the chapter, yeah? YES. Do you have music playing for your writing?

Today, I channeled my inner Homie, Ellie, Robyn and Leah.

Cosine is NOT giving me a good night's sleep at all. She meows and she meows. I haven't had a straight night sleep in a WEEK or so. This is tragic.

Tragic.

My dad told me I had to mow the lawn. And I was all "but it's a morning job!" So he told me to GET UP EARLY to do it. And I was like, "touche brother".

Except I didn't.

Yes.

So I have to do that tomorrow or Saturday. HM.

I'm watching It Takes Two. Whoohoo! I watched Passport to Paris, and oh my gosh... LAME!

Clique, Taxi, Harry Potter and Mean Girls

Happy Birthday to my sister, who is now 22 years old!

(Again, like my mom's mother day wish, she will never see this, but it's exciting just the same to tell the internet! Because I have learned from my presentation I did last week; Anything you post on the internet... It IS the internet. Hah, oh yes.)

Right now I'm listening to Taxi, and it makes me smile. The first time I watched this movie, it was pretty much one of the funniest experiences ever. The second time, it wasn't that funny. So yes! Maybe I was tired that day? Or maybe it IS only funny the first time around?

I don't know. Have you ever seen Taxi?

Last night before I went to sleep, I quoted Mean Girls for awhile. I asked my sister, "what is that from?" and "what part?" To her credit, she did pretty well with most of them. Otherwise, she was ??. To top this little cherry off, today in second period, a group doing THEIR project, showed a CLIP from Mean Girls! Call me happy, because it was AWESOME!

Random fact: I've got "accio learning" written on my binder.

Anyway, Glee is on tonight! I was checking the tv listings in my local newspaper for what time it was on, and the description was tres lame: Quinn's life will be changed forever.

WHY NOT WRITE SEASON FINALE? WHY NOT SOMETHING ELSE THAT'S EXCITING?

GOSH. *twitches head a la Napoleon Dynamite*

Speaking of second period, the girl beside me was reading Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. My reaction? "You're reading Harry Potter?! That's so cool!" And just in case if I sounded sarcastic/condescending, I was all "And I'm not being mean, either! I LOVE Harry Potter!" She knew I wasn't, and told me I was the second person to comment on what she was reading. Crazy people!

I also told her about the new clip for Deathly Hallows, and she said she'd tell her family about it. COOL! I love spreading the joy of nerdtastic things.

(The group presenting did their topic on cliques... And they asked, "what clique do you belong in?" And I could not think of ANYTHING! Because this semester, I've just been ALONE! I'd talk to people in my classes, but between classes and at lunch (if I'm in-class), I'd just kind of go to the library and work or something.)

So it seems, Possum is a loner.

She doesn't mind, either!

She also likes talking in the third person.

Yes!

movies are awesome!

I watched THREE movies today. Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion, Grease, and Bio Dome. They were on VHS', so it was a kickback to the old days. Although really, since I use my VCR a LOT, it's not really a kickback, as much as just a regular part of my life. Truth.

Throughout the day, I made pizza with this dough my dad bought at the farmers market this morning, and it was ... good, actually! It had some seasoning IN THE DOUGH, so it was quite tasty! Although I got kind of frustrated because the cheese grater I was using was LAME. AS in, it was smaller and not grating a lot of cheese!

On a side note, I once watched an episode of Law and Order: SVU (the best one!), and this girl had her face grated from a cheese grater. OUCH! It hurts just to accidently get your finger in the way.

I also looked through pictures, and had a few laughs. It was kind of amusing. Although I cringe at how I used to dress. Really, pajama pants all the time? -_- Shameful! At least now I don't even leave the house wearing pajama pants.

So right now I'm just scanning pictures into the computer because my mom wants pictures for her to look at, on the computer! *slaps hands to face* It should be exciting for her. But to show you one of the pictures, here you go:

WINTER OF '95!


It was THREE feet of snow! Epic amounts, amirite? Yes. That is my sister and I, by the way. I am in the pink snow suit. WITH THE PURPLE HAT.

I had a chicken nugget happy meal today to support CHILDREN!

I watched Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian. And after that, I watched an episode of Bones. It was very Smithsonian-ish. I loved Bones tonight! It made me happy to see two of my favorite characters FINALLY be awesome together! Truly.

Last night Glee was awesome.

Today at co-op, I played I Spy with my co-worker. You know those I Spy books? Well, we both went through pages, trying to find stuff. MAN! Those things are difficult! But it's cool to say I caught a few he didn't! And whenever I did find one, he was like "awesome". It was comical.

^__^

My friend's pregnant! She's only two weeks, but WHOAH. That kind of blows my mind. And this guy is all "get an abortion!" but she's all "NO! I AM AGAINST THAT!" The guy isn't even her boyfriend, just a friend. So yesh! I don't know what will happen with that, really. I hope she stops drinking and whatnot.

YEAH.

So I don't know. Today I was all "I KNOW WHO KARL MARX IS" and had to talk about the Russian Revolution to my Business class. Oh, the good stuff with that! It was cool to know some knowledge that the rest of my classmates didn't know, though! Oh thank you, history class! I also like when knowledge from other classes come into play. It's nice! Totally makes other classes actually useful.

It rained today. I saw an old friend on the bus. I waved. It was awkward. My heart rate went up. I got nervous.

Yeah.

In second period, we just discussed prejudices, and all that lovely stuff. So I had to pick a GROUP of people that have prejudices against them. After playing with the idea of doing a Justin Bieber fail thing, I decided on a group! And I was all "MORMONS! THEY HAVE INCEST IN THEIR FAMILIES!" So that was nice. I get to talk about that to my class tomorrow. My group member made me laugh a bit, because he was all "they keep on banging each other!" He has a way with words. It was amusing, a smidgen.

Well, I should get off. I am tuckered out.

Movies... Fail... No... Yeah...

I didn't watch all those movies I was planning on! I only watched Hanging Up, which turned out to be a BUST OF LAME! Why are movies hyped up so much, but FALL FLAT ON THEIR FACES?! I'm looking at you, My Best Friend's Wedding.

This is where the anti-hype should come into play. Without a doubt in my mind, that is the RIGHT thing to do. To give credit to Hanging Up, I saw the preview, and thought it looked AWESOME. And I was like "It has Lisa Kudrow on it!" Yeah... That didn't change the sucky levels that movie brought on. I don't even think I watched the entire thing. I just kind of wandered off after awhile. It didn't help my mom wanted to watch it with me, so I had to REWIND it. Hah.

Confession: I got distraced by the nice weather!

Nice weather, yay!

It's kind of chilly in the morning, but it's okay in the afternoon. It's kind of hot! Especially when you're doing PHYSICAL work at co-op! Dundundun! No, ha. I just had to vacuum all the little corners and stuff in the bookshelf. It was repetitive and I took a really long time doing something that should've been done QUICK. (I had to go under every single shelf!)

I realize: I shouldn't be blogging about my co-op! I always read stuff in magazines about how blogging about your WORKPLACE is bad! But they will NEVER find out about this. (One of the reasons why I never mention my place by name! YES! Or even my REAL name! Dun dun dun.)

Yeah... Although it's not that hard to figure it out.

Today was an okay day, compared to last week. I took the bus to school, because I didn't want to deal with my dad, but it turned out my MOM was driving! So that was lame, but I was able to have some quality time with my ipod. So that was nice. Yeah. I kept on trying to see if I could see her when I was on the bus, but I didn't. It was kind of disappointing.

So today in second period, we were watching The Grey Zone. It's about World War Two, and all that lovely stuff. So there's this scene where David Arquette's character is beating up some guy! Because he had his watch on, when he's going into the "showers" and that's BAD! So David A's character is all "give me the watch" and the guy was all "TELL ME I WON'T DIE". Except you know... World War II = SUCKY TIMES FOR LIVING. So when the guy doesn't give David A the watch, he starts to punch him! LIKE VIOLENTLY!

And while this was going on, his WIFE (the guy being beat up) was SCREAMING! And I started to laugh at this, because it was ridiculous! I mean, I wasn't laughing at the guy being beat up, but the woman! It was nervous laughter, however. I felt bad for laughing. Because it's A SERIOUS movie, that my student teacher said would CHANGE MY LIFE.

As would Looking for Alaska, and stuff. Man, they do NOT put the anti-hype on these stuff.

So anyways, the woman gets shot from being a rukus, and this guy in my class was like "FINALLY! THANK YOU!" And the class kind of laughed, because it was funny. The guy in my class made it more funny than it actually was, by the way.

So, have you ever felt awkward about laughing at something in a movie that you SHOULDN'T even be laughing at?

Another comment he made: The guy in my class, I mean: "Anyone else have a watch?" Aka: What to say to the other people. I was like hahaha.

It's a boring movie, by the way. I wasn't getting into it, due to NO CAPTIONS! and the light was making it hard to see ANYTHING. You'd think my school would be able to afford BLINDS! So yesh.

I wasn't expecting today to be a good day, but it turned out alright. It was quite nice. I actually felt all BLAH on the bus this morning, and I was THISCLOSE to crying! But I didn't, because I put my mind to other things. I fail at life, sometimes. Just sayin'.

I want my mother, now! As she is awesome. As is her OFFSPRING. =)

Stuff I like

It's Sunday today. It's kind of like stating the obvious, but it's just what I do.

I'm craving for a slice of pizza. Not just any kind of pizza, but yummy restaurant made pizza. YOU KNOW?

But I just asked my mom what we're having for supper tonight, and she said spaghetti. YUM! I'm craving for Italian food, so that works.

I convinced my mom to make her fruit punch, again. I just told my mom that I absolutely LOVED IT when I was younger, and my mom was like "really?" Apparently she thought we didn't, so she never made it. !! It was like THE REASON to have a party when I was younger. It was the drink of choice on my champagne birthday. So you can tell the immense happiness I had when I found out my mom was making it yesterday.

And today.

YUM!

I hope she makes it a bit more frequently now. I don't think I'd be able to handle an eight year gap again.

*refills cup*

YUMMY.

Do you remember how they used to advertisement Disneyworld at the beginnning of Disney movies on VHS? I do. I used to LOVE those parts. For some odd reason, my little weird self enjoyed watching others being able to see MICKEY!!!!!!1

True fact.

They also advertised their computer games and all that stuff. Good wholesome fun...

"Indoor plumbing... It's gonna be big."

I love old Disney movies. ^__^ I also love the previews, before the movie starts. I still do, today. It's really disappointing when you go to the movies, and the previews SUCK. You know?

Ah well... I wonder what movie will be on, right now. My mom isn't telling me!

Today I went to see The Bouny Hunter. I've been wanting to see this movie for quite a long time, so when the opportunity came up, I took it. I was a little hesitant to even do the movie thing tonight, because of my lack of money situation. But my sister was pretty much calling the shots. But it wasn't that bad, because I was able to pick out the place we were going to eat before the movie, and I got a hamburger and fries. But there was even a downside to that--I had to pay for my sister's meal. But it wasn't that bad, because she paid me into the movies... Various times throughout our sisterly history. (Plus the meal was only $6 dollars.)

The movie wasn't really what I was expecting, because I didn't really know what Jennifer Aniston's character was really up to. I heard she had a story to figure out--the reason why she missed her court date--but I didn't know much beyond that. I was quite surprised to see the antagonist in the movie was the villain in The Mask, too. A movie I just watched on Sunday with my brother and sister.


Sibling power, ftw.


On the note of The Mask, it was weird to see Cameron Diaz in her INTRODUCTION role. I mean, I don't know. I don't even like her too much, especially after seeing her in The Sister's Keeper this past summer, but it was okay I guess. Yes. Plus I was really aware of her in the Mask, because I remember a guy going "SHE WAS SO HOT IN THIS MOVIE!" and I was like "hm.. I don't like her." Hah.


I didn't even have to use the cash machine today at co-op. I was like "!" because I was getting all pumped up to use it. Actually, when my supervisor and I were doing my "report card" for my performance, the THING that I have to improve on is my technology use. Which I fuly agree, because my supervisor said it's NOTICEABLE! when I try and do something else when he asks about learning the MACHINE OF CASH! I guess I don't want the illusion of reality to be shattered just yet.


But it'll probably happen tomorrow.


Mhm!


School wise, I got my mark update for my first two classes, and I'm doing relatively okay. I could be doing better, though. Like I've been slacking on some of the assignments I've been doing lately, and that shows! I have not been getting 100% on them. And I know it's annoying when people complain about their marks when they're quite good, but I know I could be doing better.


Oh standards you set for yourself...

I... need to complete the sentence.

I watched Pretty Woman today. I had to crack up when Jason Alexander hit Julia Robert's character. I mean, it wasn't funny that he was coming on to her in a violent way (rape!) but it was just amusing how it was directed and stuff.

Yes.

My mom just informed me I've got a dentist appointment coming up this month, on a Saturday. A SATURDAY! Who goes to the dentist on a Saturday? Way to ruin my plans! "Of sleeping?" Oh mom, how you know me to the point you can ruin my plans.

So yeah!

I don't know what to talk about, right now. Right now I'm listening to a song from Hairspray, and I'm currently wearing two different socks. They're both ankle socks (...) but one is red with white strips, and the other is pink and white with a monkey on it. They're not even remotely similar. I don't know why they were smushed together, in the first place.

I hate my sock basket. There isn't any GOOD socks in there, but socks that are rejects for everyone else. I like my white cotton socks, but I've got those thin colourful socks. I don't like wearing those! I do, but they give me blisters with my stupid shoes.

I need a new pair of shoes.

I also need to go do some stuff tomorrow. But I've got co-op and school. Oh man, I have to do that dreaded cashier machine. I was thinking about that this morning, and I was like "IT'S ALMOST TUESDAY!" I have a tendency to put off my fears; I procrastinate, in other words.

I listened to DFTBA Records Radio Hour today. About... four episodes, I guess? It was pretty good. I couldn't turn it off! I was like "one more" but that turned into two, and it was just a mess of "LISTEN!!" I didn't mind, though. It was kind of nice to go back into that podcast. I was neglecting it for the last few weeks, so mhm. Nothing like the delightful voices of Caitlin Sky and Todd Williams...

THAT'S A LIE!

SERIOUSLY!

My heart already has voices it loves.

I just can't help it. Mugglecast, the hosts, I adore.

It always goes back to them, doesn't it?

Yeah...

A bit of a movie review for New Moon

Happy Easter, to those who celebrate!

I watched New Moon for the first time today. My brother bought me the movie for Easter, so I couldn't just deny him. So I put it on, and my brother, sister and I watched it. I have to say, it was better than Twilight. I actually laughed at parts that were actually meant to be laugh worthy, and parts that weren't. (I.e: Jasper going ROAR on Bella.)

I'm just going to agree with everyone when they say Taylor Lautner looked better than Robert Pattinson. Although there was a collective "ew" moment when Jacob came on the screen for the first time.

Overall, Melissa Rosenberg > Stephenie Meyer

Chris Weitz > Catherine Hardwicke

But that was already a given, really.

I didn't eat any peeps today. I know, it's surprising! But I just had too much chocolate, already. AN OVERLOAD OF CANDY! It's always nice when that happens, of course. Yeah! Especially since I gave up chocolate for Lent, it was nice to have some today.

Truly.

I'm still working on my script, obviously, and I think it's going okay. I've gotten better at the actual 'script' aspect of it, I think. I just checked out some websites on how to format them, and I'm okay. I'm using the 'voice over' thing a bit too much, I think. Which is a bit of a cop out, when you think about it. But I don't particularly mind them when they happen in movies, so eh.

Plus it's not like an original script by Possum--it's just an adaptation. So that makes me feel a bit better.

WHICH IS GREAT!
