Just a Collection of Random Musings

March 29th, 2012

I really REALLY want to post something. Like REALLY badly. For several weeks now. So I’m just going to type and we’ll see what happens.

This year, Spring Break was possibly the BEST spring break ever. Maybe because when I was in HS and before it was Mama who choose when we took spring break… Or it could quite possibly be the two days we spent at the beach (one of which the BF got to come down for…. *happy dance*) And then there’s the part where I’ve been away from home for a while and got to spend a week at home with my amazing family. But really, I think the beach trip took the cake. (not that that’s hard to do with me since I’ve realized that I don’t really like cake…)

BTW, in case you’re wondering, Spanish is WAY easier with a professor. I’m hoping this holds true with math too since I’m going to try and take a course next fall. Oh boy.

Hunger Games was fantabulous. (ohmygosh, spellchecker is telling me that’s a real word. O.o) It was so real seeming to and the horrid style of videography that I hated in the Bourne movies cause it was so distraction, well, it was actually pretty awesome in the Hunger Games. I’m sort of wondering if the screen size affects that at all. Anyways, I loved the movie and the only part I noticed missing that I actually went “awww that wasn’t in the movie!” was the part where District 11 send Katniss the bread right after Rue dies. That and the part whre Haymitch has to send her sleeping medicine or whatever so that she can leave Peeta. But I forgot that part until Mama mentioned it, so really only the bread. Rue was adorable by the way. Much better than I could have imagined her really, she has such a sweet face. :) One thing I really like that they sort of changed was the fact that they included the reactions of people in District 12 (Like Katniss’s mother and sister and Gale.) and then in other places as well (like the revolt in District 11) that happened at the same time but you don’t find out about until book 2 or 3 since it’s written from Katniss’s perspective.

Ooooo! I just found out that GG5 is waiting for me at the library! Super excited (I’ll just have to find a time to go pick it up now…) I’ve been dying to know what happens to Cammie. Especially since Ally Carter posted those shorts in the pov of the othe characters. Very stoked!

I have reestablished that I am horrible at painting. Luckily as a BA and not a BFA student I can avoid taking an actual Painting class. I also discovered today that it takes a lot of guidance for me to draw abstractly. How ironic is that?

Another thing I’ve learned, apparently homeschoolers are the only people who have heard of cleps. O.o Okay, so not entirely true, I have said the word to a few public schoolers who knew what I was talking about. But still.

On a sad note, I should probably mention that my precious kitty is gone. :( Sammy went MIA a month or so ago and hasn’t turned back up. We can only assume he’s dead. :’( Speaking of which, one should never EVER text one’s sibling who is in college and tell her that her beloved cat is dead. Leave that news breaking in the gentle hands of the parents. Trust me. Also, the best place to find out about said beloved cat’s passing is at the BF’s house. That way you can totally cry and have someone actually comfort you. Because let’s face it, my friends aren’t exactly used to me breaking down into tears like that. (well, there was the time that there was a tornado and I got upset and started sobbing… or the time I was crying and screaming at my computer…)

Also, Zeke doesn’t know his own name. Or that he’s supposed to let my and lil sis hug him to death. Or that he’s supposed to come beg for belly rubs when I’m hanging up laundry or curl up around my head when I lie down or try to chew the corners of my books or… well I guess I’m going to have to face the reality that he isn’t Samson…

I finally finished The Help over Spring Break! It was amazing, Definitely better than the movie, though the movie is totally worth the time as well.

Sarah’s Key, which is a book that Mama and I read in Europe makes a pretty good movie. It was also the first foreign film I’ve seen. Or at least seen and known that it was a foreign film…

That’s about all I can think of so I guess I’ll wrap it up with this: In case you wondered, all skeletons are nude. And gender un-specific… unless you’re Dr. Brennan that is…

Evilness, Movies and Birthdays

June 17th, 2010

Sooooooo, I had the REALLY evil idea, well actually mom and I had this idea, and Daddy and Ms. L liked it. So, we got Maryanna to write Indy a letter at camp, and spray it with perfume. Much evilness. LOL. It was fun, Dad says he went read and the other guys were teasing him about the smell. LMHO. It was so evil.

Also, I just watched the trailer for a movie that promises to be awesome. It’s based off of this book:

SCREAMAGE!!!!!!!!!! Of course it’ll be awesome for seveal reasons. 1. These movies always are. 2. It’ll have Caspian in it and he is totally swoon-worthy.

For Froggy

October 29th, 2009

This post is dedicated to my cousin Froggy. Enjoy.

Okay, now think about this. Froggy, you pity the Phantom. (I admit I do too, who wouldn’t?) But Raoul has to live forever with the knowledge that his wife was loved by, and loved, another man. He has to forever live in the shadow of the phantom. At least to some extent. So to does Christine. Shristine must live with the knowledge that she actually gave part of her heart to a man who was a murderer and a tormented soul.
