Best Movies Ever

I just watched New Moon for a second time. I am always surprised. This book/world take-over is all about weird stuff and romance--you would think I would be all over it.
(I think it is because there is a complete lack of respect for food) I don't think I could force myself to read the other three books, but I have to admit that I am in LOVE with the movies. I can't really describe why. I find myself laughing throughout the entire thing. How could anyone not like these movies? My favorite part of New Moon was the last line. "Marry me Bella."
wait for it.
Wait for it.
Music . . . music . . .
and finally
"GASP"
It must have been so surprising to her that he wanted to marry her after she demanded to spend eternity with him as a damned soul. Now she has to decide to marry the sucker (no pun intended, honestly I am that witty in-deliberately)WHAT A HUGE DECISION FOR AN 18 YEAR OLD TO MAKE. I mean, she already had to choose if she wanted to be a vampire FOREVER. But this, this is too grown up-ish. It would be so much easier to lead Jacob on if she wasn't married. How will she convince him to do whatever she wants him to do if she is legally bound to the undead?
It is just too funny. I can't wait for Eclipse. I just am so excited to laugh. Hopefully I won't offend anyone in the theater.

Classic Wisdom for the Professional Life is a book that doesn’t make a single mistake. It is an easy read that applies to everyone (student, butcher, baker etc.) Despite the repetitive nature, there is something of a gem between the covers. Names that you know, and names that you don’t know, give the feeling that you have some kind of contact with a few of the world’s most successful people. The discoveries that they share are endearing, uplifting, and motivating. The book itself is not an in-your-face presentation, but a gentle nudge to work harder for the things you love.
You could probably live without this book, but why deny yourself insight to the way to live your dreams? Whatever your reason for buying Classic Wisdom for the Professional Life, it is requisite to do something after reading it. Pass it on. As is anything classic or anything wise, this book is meant to be pondered, understood, and—most importantly—shared.

It's all about . . .









GRE- DONE-ZO!!! BEST FEELING EVER! I wish all of you could have been in the car with me. After shaking, laughing, smiling, and sighing, Queen came on the radio to sing WE WILL ROCK YOU that transitioned into WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS. If you had been in the passenger seat you would have witnessed pounding on the steering wheel with the music loud yelling "YES! YEAH! WOOOH!" and so on. Screaming out only half of the words because I didn't know them all, I euphorically drove home.
I now have an even greater admiration and respect for Rachael Susan James Mulder. Taking that test was so painful. It took every ounce of dedication that I had to keep answering questions. RSJM=HEROINE of MJW- Darling I love you.

and now for the less admirable, and maybe even despicable, the rest of my thoughts that are bursting . . .

GLEE- Should this show be my life? Subtract the high school drama and the 21st century concerns of sexual orientation . . . ok subtract everything but the encouragement to sing for every new scene of life! I was really touched by some moments in the last episode.
Let him go Finn. And you really shouldn't be the male lead. You really can't sing. Too bad. You are now the minority- you were chosen only for your looks.
Kurt- You go girl. I never thought falsetto could be done well, let alone euphoniously.
Mercedes- you are beautiful. Can't stop loving your voice.
Jesse St. James- Could any voice be sweeter? Like honey, it lingers. It sticks to everything and I can't stop thinking "Is it me you're searching for?" It is amazing how fast I remember my fantasies of living in a musical. This reminds me to be certain to marry a musician. Vocally irresistable. I can't resist such a voice in a man.
Rachael- you will always be No. 1. Even when I don't like the songs that they have you sing, I think you are the best.
ARTIE- PLEASE LET HIM SING! HIS VOICE COULD CATCH CLOUDS AND PIN THEM DOWN
I wish I was Glee. I can't describe the desire this show has brought out of me to sing before all. Sad sad. Some dreams must be sacrificed so others may come true. :(

LOST- So sick of you. But also kind of intrigued by the character's knowledge of the alternate universes. However, J.J. Abrams- did you really have to go about time travel screw-ups using the same system as in Star Trek? You are creative. Maybe it was bad timing? Glad Jack has changed. I always hated his Do or Die attitude. If the Kwans end up unhappy I think I will cry every time I meet a Korean. They have to be happy after all that they have gone through. Love rekindled is the greatest power. Don't care about Kate. Don't care about Sawyer. Don't care about Jack. Really don't care about Ben Linus (even though I like his low key role now. He and Jack are parallel. Both tried to control everyone around them for so long. Now they have both given up leading and are learning how to follow. The puppet masters lost control of their marionettes and now lie entangled by the lines they once coerced. Idiots.) So sick of Lost.

CHUCK-Glad the Hannah fling didn't last long.

NCIS- Gibbs- I adore you. When you kiss Abby on the cheek I get so enamored. Best TV "he's the man" man.

BONES- For heaven sakes Brennan! You are denying yourself ultimate happiness. Subconsciously, you are very aware of this, which is why you draw closer to Booth through your partnership. You tighten your hold on that structure because it is a retracted form of what you could really have. BOOTH- I think I will name a son Seely. I don't know what it means, but it is pretty awesome.

PROJECT RUNWAY- I know you are over, but congratulations for the Lamest season ever. SO MAD that Maya quit (what better way to discover who you are as an artist than to be given four months with resources to start your own collection? HELLO). Disgusted that Mila went to fashion week & was almost considered the winner with her collection that walked straight out of Vogue 1994. Wishing I could see the rest of Jay's line, even though he dissed a beautiful model because she didn't like his clothes. Really indifferent to the winner. Whatever. I feel like Lifetime ruined one of the greatest reality shows EVER. Heidi needs a new stylist.

Now that I have got that all off of my chest I can slowly wean off of TV. See what happens when all of my best friends a)get married b) move to NYC c)go on missions? I have to find friends through the media and I randomly capitalize unnecessarily in my blog post. Now that I am finished with the GRE I can find friends the normal way, through Novels. YES YES YES

love love love
