Woke up in the mornin' feelin' like ... watchin' Rocko's Modern Life and Rugrats

I'm such a child at heart. I woke up at three this morning to watch Rocko's Modern Life, then Rugrats, then Blue's Clues. Saturday morning cartoons come on a bit to early for me, but I was originally gonna get up at two, so I did sleep in a bit. Though it wasn't such a good idea considering I went to sleep around 11-ish last night.

Other news, I finally finished Cuckoo's Nest and watched one of the movies. So now all I have to do is finish analyzing symbols and come up with some themes and motifs and that junk, then write 5 reading logs, one of which will be about the movie and how much the story-line changed, especially the fact that McMurphy didn't have red hair. Though the three main actors were pretty good, except for the hair color thing.

After I get all that done I get to move on to Psych notes! And I actually am kinda excited for that, but still don't wanna do it at the same time.

Apparently I'm not allowed to go stag for prom. We had gone to the mall and as per tradition, I had to drag everybody in Jessica McClintoc's, I have a very strong feeling I spelt that horribly wrong though, but this shop is well know as far as name brands go, of course we only went there after the carousel. Anyways for some reason or another I have it stuck in my head that my prom dress needs to be red, so while we were looking my mom informed me that I had to find a date to prom, not sure how that's gonna work out though.

I saw two rocks happily married

Am watching Sayonara, and loving it!!! But sadly the movie keeps skipping. Either way the movie is epic, I understand the culture stuff and some of the Japanese, plus watching Marlon Brando try to pronounce all the Japanese words is histerical!!!

Other than that I watched a Hitstory of the World Part One, and am thinking I should take up the challange of making Part Three.

Hmm, I also watched Pretty Little Liars, a girly drama show that sucks you in so that you can't not watch it. But every time I watch it, I'm reminded of something my history teacher said, "Secrets, secrets are no fun. Secrets, secrets hurt someone." Funny how little, childish sayings can be really relevant to life as a whole.

Trying to write an essay for MMC, and am finding it difficult to pick a topic, though I think it might end up being Monty Python, seeing as it is a liberal arts school and one of the suggested topics is pick your favorite film and discuss it, and of course my fav is the Holy Grail.

OH MY GOOD GOLLY GOD!!! GUESS WHAT!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Today is my 'Men's Shirts, Short Skirts' Day. Though I'm kinda cheating by wearing a skort, but I don't think Shinia will mind much. But I also straightened my hair and put on my hat backwards so it looks like a baree(sp? the french hat thingy?). Point is I feel like a poet. XP

Despite my poet feelingness nothing much as happened today. Watched Blue's Clues, read manga, read OFOTCN, and watched House.

Yep, Ya-huh, Yeah, Sure, Alright

I'm in love!!! With my new pair of jeans that our perfect in everyway a pain of jeans can be perfect. Plus they were six bucks, originally thirty somethin'. I can't wait for September, when it's cool enough for me to wear my beloved jeans.

Trying to read OFOTCN but its weird and I can't seem to get into it. Hopefully Once I read a little more I can get through it. Sadly out of all the books we're supposedly going to read this year, this is the only book I can't get the audio copy for.

-sigh- My summer always seems rather uneventful. Am hoping to go see Sorcerer's Apprentice soon and get my four-leaf clover from Ireland XP

Anyways I should get to reading my novel seeing as I can't have someone read it to me

I Just Want this 'True Love' Everyone's been Talking About

So I just realized I totally forgot to rant on Avatar the Last Airbender. Went to see it Sunday with Mike and Caitlin.

Anyways the first thing that bugged me was how the chick that played Katara kept pronouncing Avatarwrong. I mean it was a cartoon for crying out lound, everything was already pronounced for you, not like there was any question on how to say it. She pronounced Aang wrong too. Plus the story line was chopy, like they tried to pick the most important eps but it still didn't really go along together. And they left out the Kiyoshi Warriors, you think that would have been more important than when Aang gets caught in the bender prison in some random Earth Nation. The whole movie was just off, I probably won't end up going to the next ones.

Other than my discontent with Avatar, I finally finished all my stuff for The Stranger and now have to work on One Flew Over the Cukoo's Nest. My one true wish right now is being able to finish all this AP work before its due. Way too much work for my summer.

good golly gosh

spain won the world cup T.T

Anyways watched Remember Me yesterday just before the cup, took forever to watch 'cause we had to pause to do some clean up session. As for the movie, I really liked it, but it left one unresolved issue and the ending was completely unexpected. Like, I highly doubt anyone could have predicted it, or I just totally missed any foreshadowing. But it was still a pretty good movie, but I'm one for chick flicks anyways.

Today my mission is to finish my reading logs for The Stranger so I can start reading One Fell Over the Cookoo's Nest, which actually seems interesting. I think I might get the audio thing though just to speed up the process. In fact that is my plan for this year. I took the list of books on the list of what we should read this year and checked out all the audio books for each of them. Because I know that otherwise I won't read any of the books I'm not into, so hearing it speeds up the unmoving process.

think I'm gonna watch A History of the World Part I while writting

I can't Supress, so I might as well Confess

So I was listening to "If I had You" and while listening to the song all I could picture was some club with strobe lights, but whenever I actually look at the words it almost sounds like a romantic song O.O I really don't understand that

Watched Invictus yesterday, loved it! And right after watching it I imedeately looked up when the next Rugby World Cup would be, next year in September, at New Zealand. I found the host country a bit ironic seeing as the movie is new-ish and the guys the South African team went up against in the final round was New Zealand. But I was the only one in the house laughing at that irony.

Anyways today is the last day of the World Cup(Football version, or Soccer for the Yanks)!!! It's Spain vs. Netherlands and I'm rootin' for the Netherlands!!! I'm only really cheerin' them on 'cause of Lieka, an exchange student from there that was at our school last year, and she was so adorable. But anyways I'm excited for the game.

Oh also today is a month from my birthday!!!And I've got about 20 some odd days to finish all my English AP work T.T All I have left to do for the first book is to type up 3 reading logs and fill in one box of the worksheet. Problem is I have no clue how to fill in the last box.

It might just be better to forget, rather than be dragged down by love

Hmmm, not sure if I like the new changes or if I'm just not used to them. I suppose it doesn't really matter either way.

Anyways went down to SC for the week, we kept going to the pool and beach but I never went swimming T.T Posiden banned me from the water.

While at the resort we watched the games, and after Germany lost I decided we would have octopus for dinner as revenge against the octopus that predicted Spain would win. So no I'm rootin' for the Netherlands to win the Cup, seeing as I at least know one person from there that was an exchange student this past year.

I've sadly already come to the point where I can't wait for school to start, but first I gotta finish all the AP work that's due this August. I finally finished reading The Stranger, it was soooo pointless and irritating. How can no one ever not have an opinion?!?!?

Harry Potter marathon on ABC Family, with stuff for the next and final movies. Psyched for both of them, though a little nervous, hoping they do well with the book to movie transition.

Hmmm, I think I've run out of things to say
