countless tiring hours

i love the bbc series 50million times more than the 2005 movie. especially since i'm not a huge kiera knightley fan, and since colin firth fits the role of mr. darcy soo much more perfectly than anyone else in the world. and can you not admit that jennifer ehle is freaking gorgeous? looook at her!

i think the hardest part about finishing up my senior project paper all yesterday and night, was fighting off my temptation to jump onto youtube and finish the series. apparently however, we're watching two hours of pride and prejudice in literature tomorrow. i guess i should atleast catch up in the book with how far i am in the show now that the paper is over :) but the internet is deadly. i've recently just gotten a twitter too!

PACHIA

YES WE ANOOP!

i wasn't even thinking of him, during those last few moments of american idol tonight. and then they said it. anoop dog. and i screamed...
i think anoop is the cutest guy everrr! (totally overstated, as i say that about every cute guy i see on television) but i'm so glad that the judges picked him :) <-- yes that is a smile on my face. he's just so cute and there's something about him that makes me like him so much. i mean there are tons of other contestants with really good voices, probably even better voices than him, but i just love this guy. he's my guyyyyyy! i think i'm going to be rooting for anoop all season; depending on whether or not he gets through tomorrow, but... he'll always live a ma coeur!

i was supposed to be finishing off those cartoon faces of us for yearbook, but i got really sidetracked yesterday when i decided to update my myspace with pictures of patrick dempsey (because josephine and i were talking about how amazingly sexy he is, after school). and yeah, he's prettyy sexy. i don't know why my mom and my boyfriend just don't see it. he's a sex-god. which probably sounds really weird coming from me, but his attractiveness kinda reeeks from my mind, if i'm making myself clear. even though i truly did not like how his character ended up in "Can't Buy Me Love"-- which was my christmas gift from kristina (thanks ily :)-- i thought he was still really sexyy.




(his wife is really pretty too...):

my parents finally bought a wireless adapter for our new computer, which has probably been sitting unused for two months, and i'm having tons of fun on it. they also went all out and bought my little brother and sister their own nintendo ds'! so we have two, and i'm obsessed with the touchpad messaging. we started Pride & Prejudice today in literature, and i'm excited for it. and also today pavoua brought her baby turtles to school so that we could see them, and they were extremely adorable. i wish that i had had my camera with me. their names are hidey and traveler and they were sooo tiny. i imagined the scene in statistics today was somewhat like that new burger kings commercial for their mini burgers. "they're so aah-dooor-ablee." i want a baby turtle, but i'm scared that my big turtle just might eat it or kill it. plus i don't have a big enough tank for both turtles, and i would want toto to have a friend if i got another turtle, so i will just wait to see how the future turns out.

courtney's birthday was on sunday and i've been planning on making her some cupcakes all week, but every night i've been putting it off, because i've had so much crap to do this week. i think i will make her some this weekend. plus my momma's birthday is this weekend, so i'll make her something tooooo! i love bakerella.blogspot.com; it's amazing!

these are the cuppycakes i made marissca paaaablo. who got a really cute tattoo this past weekend on her foooot :D



i made some extra ones too :) pour ma mere and mon petit!

things that make me cry

I've been watching/reading a lot of things in class lately and maybe I am just uber depressed and emotional with all the stress of college apps going on, my ap classes, school in general (senioritis!!), multicultural (next week!!!!), work, family, etc. and so I get teary eyed a lot.

EDWARD SCISSORHANDS

It doesn't help that I had just finished reading Frankenstein for AP Language before seeing this movie. I have never seen Edward Scissorhands but the teacher I TA for was gone for two days so we watched Edward Scissorhands for her class. I just felt sooo sad for him afterwards, the loneliness. :( And how he only got to experience love for such a little time. I wanted to cry very bitterly.

FRANKENSTEIN

I was super depressed after this book. Again I felt very sorry for how lonely Frankenstein's monster must have felt after he woke up and his own creator did not greet him, did not love him. It wasn't his fault he did not know how to deal with emotions and acted in violence. It was Dr. Frankenstein's FAULT!!! I think Mary Shelley's feminist point of view is that if Dr. Frankenstein had been a woman, he would have taken care of his monster like a mother to a child, and would not have abandoned it! Only a mother can love a child that looks like a monster!

Freedom Writers

This was a pretty good movie. Kind of typical at some points, I was surprised no one died or got shot but overall I think it is so cool how it is a true story. Funny, the teacher in Freedom Writers is called Ms. G, and the teacher I TA for who is one of my favorite teachers is also called Ms. G, and she is just as awesome as the lady in Freedom Writers. She really is one of those teachers to inspire and make you want to do well. I got teary-eyed at the ending. I love happy endings.

Pride and Prejudice

So we are reading it for AP Language. I read it back in sophomore year but I didn't appreciate the high fluent language and the British sarcasm like I do now. Plus I spark noted half of it. But this time I read the whole thing and it was fabulous. AND THE MOVIE IS AWESOME!!! HOT ROMANCE. I cried for joy after finishing the book. It really is one of the best romance novels. Although I was deeply annoyed with Elizabeth and all her feminist sarcasm, she got some sense in the end. We started the movie before we left for turkey break and when Mr. Darcy confessed his love, all the girls screamed haha. It was quite amusing.

WE GOT MARRIED

I AM SO MAD ALL MY FAVORITE COUPLES ARE LEAVING. I am so bitter and sad. I know it is just a reality show and it is all fake, but I know there are some real emotions in there. I cried when Andy and Solbi left. I was depressed when Alex and Shinae left. WHAT NEXT!?!? The lettuce couple --Hwangbo and HyunJoong :(

I need to start reading or watching things that make me happy.
I also cry over this.

BECAUSE HIS FACE IS SO PERFECT.
sigh. jang guen suk <33333.
