everytime you close your eyes

kels moved into her apartment yesterday, it's a bachelor but it's super nice, it still has semi-separations so it doesn't feel like one big room thing. didn't take us too long to move everything up and get drinking lol. it was a good night.
yesterday i worked on the alpha book and on xmas cards, if you get one from me, i hope you like it, there's an elf suit and a unicorn involved...

anyway, check out these wicked book things:

the goods the bads of me:
-i bought my mom something for xmas that she just commented on tonight that she decided she doesn't want anymore. seriously happens every year. i was pumped on the gift too :( oh well, i'm not returning it, i refuse!
-i have a vocab exam tomorrow and do not feel prepared
+studying for the vocab i did learn new words
+i have ridiculous ways of studying that work. ex: baleful = to be full of menacing and evil. i remember this by thinking christian bale was in the new batman movie where it was full of menacing evil bad guys. sweet. you should here my thought process on words like abrogate.
-still have to buy my sister the rest of her xmas gift
-the only thing i asked for for xmas (swindle magazine subscription) has halted all subscription services right now. LAME

+i'm determined to make it out to the wags best commercial thing this year


best plus of all, the school term is almost done, and christmas is coming! christmas is coming!

snap

old films usually bore me with their slow pace.
but boy, do they have class.

i wonder if they knew they were gorgeous?

kaboom

ignore the video, just listen to the song. heard it a few months back, still like it. saw it in stranger than fiction, and even though it led to a mini make out sesh involving will ferrel, it made my heart explode, it was ten kinds of sweet.

if you know any movies or books that make your heart explode, let me know.
i'm surprised i have much heart left, i've let it burst too many times. but it's there. sometimes i can feel it trying to escape.

now i need to be extra lame and post two of my favorite quotes from twilight and new moon.

"Before you...my life was like a moonless night. Very dark, but there were stars - points of light and reason. .... And then you shot across my sky like a meteor. Suddenly everything was on fire; there was brilliance, there was beauty. When you were gone, when the meteor had fallen over the horizon, everything went black. Nothing had changed, but my eyes were blinded by the light. I couldn't see the stars anymore. And there was no reason for anything."

"I was like a lost moon- my planet destroyed in some cataclysmic, disaster-movie scenario of desolation- that continued, nevertheless, to circle in a tight little orbit around the empty space left behind, ignoring the laws of gravity."

even though i'm lactose intolerant, i sure do like my cheesy moments. well look what i've gone and done, my heart has exploded once more.

hair today gone tomorrow (har har hair)

new hair. has darkness on the half you can't really see.


(this is how short i wanted to go but i chickened out!! so for now, i just have to tuck the longer layer away and i can have short hair in pictures? ugh so lame)
i cut my hairs. yup, pretty much every one of them! it feels short to me, but i know its still long considering normal hair length standards hah, oh well. not sure how i feel bout it yet! i wanted to go shorter but i freaked in the chair lol, maybe next time.


sigh. i've been doing school work all day. lame. i'm so not a school type of girl. i fell way behind in one class so i have to do extra credit, i don't even know when i can fit that in. i will officially have a lack of life until dec 13th when my last exam is over.
things to get done by monday night:
-10 page research paper
-the research for that paper
-film and contemporary though essay
-study for vocabulary exam for film enchante (random i know lol)

it hasn't stressed me out yet, i just don't want to do it. on the plus side though, i just finished looking up the 111 words on the vocab exam, so i'm now 111 words smarter!

so bad

last night i went to the advance screening of twilight and it was...AWFUL. so bad. like kids channel made for tv kind of movie. awful. the acting was bad, the clothing and make up was horrible, the plot sucked. everything about it was horrible.

everyone in the theatre was laughing AT it. SO BAD. it wasn't even one of those movies like lake placid two where it's so bad it's meant to be funny...sort of. this was just so so bad, and not supposed to be funny. the movie should of made me cry, which i guess it did, but because i was laughing at it.

to be honest, i knew what was coming, imdb only had it at 5.2/10, but still. they slaughtered the book. it was like watching the film on fast forward because they only showed events and none of the emotions behind it. plus edward came off like a total skitzo stalker creep. not fun.

oh not to mention we had to stand in line with a bunch of 13 yr old girls, and when they let the line open to go into the theatres, there was a STAMPEDE of 13 yr olds running and screaming, they knocked over the podium. tweens are vicious little things! not gonna lie, my heart got pumping they scared the crap out of me! little did they know there were 2 theatres so me and my group went into the one right next to the door which was about half empty unlike the other one where every seat was filled.

so in conclusion, twilight was one of the worst movies i've seen in so long. i had low expectations anyway, and the books are still great, but do not waste your time on this film.


in other news: i'm cutting my hair today! (it's a big deal for me) so wish me luck! FAREWELL!
