A New Blog!!!

So, nothing too exciting lately, just got my hair cut and colored today. I like it alot. As I was leaving from home today though, I tried to use the remote for my car to unlock the front door to my house When I finally realized what I was doing I couldn't help but laugh at myself. About the blog title: I guess since I'm the youngest my mom worries about me more than the others, and she wants me to call her all the time. I'm on my way home (fully intending to call her once I got here so she wouldn't worry ) and she calls me first. We talk and she tells me to call her again once I get home - which I was almost there! I then tell her "But I'll be home in ten minutes, so in ten minutes let's just pretend I called you." I told her the same thing when she went with me to sign up for clas-ses last semester and I wasn't so into it "Come on Mom, let's don't say we did." Unfortunately, she didn't take the bait.

--------------------------------------------

*Movies and Music*

I admit that I'm a Harry Potter nerd, and I was looking forward to seeing the new one in November, so now it sucks that it won't be out until next summer. I was bummed at first, but now I'm over it And Twilight got moved up to Harry Potter's weekend, so at least I'll be getting that movie early.

PeNeLoPe "Penelope"!!! So honestly, I didn't think this movie would be anything special. It's a fairy tale like story about a girl who is cursed with a pig nose and she has to marry a blue blood like herself for the curse to be broken. I don't want to say anything really spoilery, but I ended up really loving this movie. It's rated PG, so it's kind of a kid's movie, but I love a good kid's movie every once in a while It's romantic and cute (which usually is not my type of movie, but I'm in a weird romantic phase lately) and I've got a little bit of a crush on James McAvoy now or at least his character in the movie. Good music too, and everything is so bright and colorful.

This is the song that plays during the end credits, and I'm really liking it. Hoppipolla by Sigur Ros No, that's not English they're singing in It's a strange song, but I think it's pretty, sort of epic sounding.

I've been watching alot of good movies at work lately (since I can watch 'em for free ) so any other movies somebody wants to talk about . . .

-------------------------------------------

Not much else to say, just can't wait for all the new seasons of my fav shows to start up again.

Hye Nova! Thanks for the comment on my blog!! As for your blog: I love the saying 'Let's don't and say we did'. i'll have to see Penelope. It doesn't really look like my type of movie (i'm into action mostly) but if you like it, i'm sure it's good.

I thought Twilight was coming out down under in Jan 09...but maybe it'll be shown earlier here too then...hopefully

I want some Edward action

I think I've vaguely heard of that movie Penelope b4. Is that Toni Collette in it??? I adore James McAvoy...I wanna see the movie he's in with Angelina Jolie "Wanted"
Posted Aug 21, 2008 8:57 pm PT
I liked the song...and the vid was really cool with the old ducks

I haven't watched any movies lately...ummm I watched like the 1st 10 mins of "40 year old Virgin" the other night...then I put my SPN dvd on instead
Posted Aug 21, 2008 9:04 pm PT
So I'm done with S6 of Buffy! Yay!!! So what did ya think of the musical ep??? Pretty darn awesome wasn't it!?!!

I loved Buffy struggling with coming back from the grave...Buffy & Spike getting it on...it was ssssooo sad when Xander left Anya at the altar...and oh my God when Tara was killed...ugh when Willow went darkside & ripped Warren's skin off!!!!...what about when Willow was doing her evil & claimed nobody could stop her & then Giles turned up...I cheered ...all Buffy's hairstyles

What really annoyed me on the dvd specials was the outtakes...don't know why they even bothered

P.S. Yay!!! SPN S4 less than a month away!!!!

Hiya Suze! *pictures you with crazy hair*

I didn't take any pics, and my hair will never look as good as it did right after I cut it I'm not so good with the hair styling. Oh! About Twilight! Okay, I'm not sure if this is right, but I read that in Aussie the date was moving up to Dec. 11 - I think So I hope you get it early too. Nope, no Toni Colette in "Penelope". Oh yeah, I would like to see "Wanted" too. So did you see James in the library scene in Atonement then?? I was watching the movie at work and was worried that somebody was going to walk in at that scene.

The musical episode!! I did like it. And the songs were stuck in my head for days after I watched it. I really liked Tabula Rasa too, my favorite shot is when they open the door and see a vampire and they all scream. I wish I had an icon of it. About Dark Willow, I thought she was pretty bad ass Tara dying after they had finally gotten back together Hmm, I don't know, I like that SPN has all that angst, but on Buffy I like the more fun episodes. Why'd you hate the outtakes? Because it was so short? Yeah, that sucked

Less than a month away for Supernatural !!!!!!! Can't wait!!! Hmm, did it feel like a shorter wait to you this year?? Well, it did for me anyway.

Are you a Bangel or Spuffy supporter?? Just curious That was kinda random . . .

*Dark Willow hugs*

Hi Jenna!
"lets dont and say we did"

*hugs*

Hi Alice!

Yep, early Twilight is definitely a good thing! And watch "Penelope" - there's a Twilight sneak peek on the DVD

Hope you're good
*Edward hugs*

My hair isn't any better today

Well if it ain't Toni Collette...who plays the pig-nosed chick then????
Posted Aug 23, 2008 1:43 am PT
I'll get my sis to check out when Twilight comes out here...she's always on top of stuff like that

I haven't seen any of Atonement. I've seen JMac in that Narnia flick & a little bit of him in the TV show he was in in the UK...crap the name escapes me right now
Posted Aug 23, 2008 1:45 am PT
I liked angsty S6 Buffy cos it led Buffy into Spike's arms I'm both a Bangel & Spuffy fan! Though she of course belongs with Angel...her true love
Posted Aug 23, 2008 1:47 am PT
Yeah you're right it has wizzed by...the SPN break...

Have you seen The S3 gag reel in full yet???? The link's on OhB's latest blog...the boys are so funny! I love them so!!!!
Posted Aug 23, 2008 1:49 am PT
It might just be a SPN dvd watching night tonight...instead of Buffy...I'm up to Roadkill...ooohhh then Heart...excellent

Okay, I'm back

Christina Ricci is Penelope. If you type in Atonement library scene at Youtube they show a little bit of it Oh yeah, I forget he's in Narnia - he doesn't look like himself much in that movie

Hmm, I think I like Spuffy Season 7 better, even though they aren't technically together I guess 'cause it seems like she actually LIKES him this season Maybe it's just 'cause he's got a soul though. You know Buffy's got a weakness for vamps with a soul The season 3 gag reel!!! That was hilarious. Can't wait to get the DVDs on Sept. 2!! (Yep, I looked it up)

The last episode of Buffy I watched was "The Killer In Me" so do ya need to catch up??

See ya Suze *Spuffy hugs*

Hi Nova. I am glad you like your new hair cut. I am the same way when I first get my hair cut it looks great and then the next day I don't know how to make it look that great so out comes the hairclip.

I was a little upset about HP being pushed back into next year but Twilight does look interesting. I have not read any of the books but the preview looks good.

Penelope sounds interesting and I might check it out when I can. I like cute movies when I am in the mood to watch it.

**BIG HUGS**

Hello Hike

Isn't just cut hair great?? It's all pretty and manageable, and it's so much better looking. Yep, my hair goes up in the ponytail. Well, if you like vampires you might like Twilight. I'd recommend the books, they're a fun easy read.

**HP hugs**
