I saw this movie over the weekend, and I absolutely enjoyed it. Parts of the movie were a bit trippy and had me sink in my seat, but I think that it was appropriate for this time period. I loved how they made the movie based on The Beatles songs. I love The Beatles! The soundtrack is amazing and the original story of ATU is cleverly done. The characters were named after songs from The Beatles (i.e., Lucy, Jude, Prudence).
I enjoyed it, and I can't wait for the DVD =)
The soundtrack is <3
Have some Beatles knowledge before watching the movie ^^ And go see it if you aren't scared of something different.
Jim Sturgess is mMmMm cute =)
PS: Happy Halloween.
So how's life everyone? The world treating you all right? It finally stopped raining yesterday, and it's a bit cooler again today. It's sweatshirt weather!
Work went all right. I was helping some of the children with their homework, and this boy next to me was doing a worksheet on subtraction. About a hundred or so problems on various, elementary subtraction problems. On the problem "6 - 1" he wrote the answer "7". Instead of subtracting, he changed the symbol to addition and added. Clever boy, but that doesn't work. If so, I'd change a whole lot of test questions to questions I knew the answers to ; ) T
Ciao and good night Voxers. I have procrastinated school work and The Hills at 10:00 =)
<3
Apparently I'm a dooche when it comes to computers, but I like to think I know enough to get me by without my brother or someone else.
But I don't.
I hate being so freakin dependent.
My computer started acting up on me yesterday morning. It's the same sickness, it restarts over and over by itself. This happens about every four months, and I always lose my stuff.
I don't have any of my favorites anymore, and I can't remember all the sites I bookmarked.
I need to reinstall... well, basically everything.
And I hate using the word basically.
Yesterday was computerless/internetless Sunday.
Though I think my mom's leaning towards getting me a Macbook Pro.
So excited.
I don't want to jinx it, so, shhhh...
My mom's out getting pizza for lunch! I can barely fit into these jeans I'm wearing.
Ooh, and I'm watching Across the Universe tonight =)
Have a good Saturday night, Voxers!
I shall eat a cupcake now.
How cute.
I feel guilty saying this, but I absolutely hate the rain. I know we're in a drought, but California needs it more than us. I woke up at 9:20 AM. I was supposed to wake up at 8:00 AM because I had to leave at 9:50 AM to get gas before going to class. It's the rain's fault, trust me... sunshine's my natural alarm clock. Well, I left at 10:00 and got gas at the nearest BP Station. It was raining bullets again today, and I was going 70 mph on the interstate. Nasty rain! The rain that spit from the tires of the cars on the interstate today looked like freakin' fog. I couldn't see anything! Yet, I was determined not to be late for my class. Taking Back Sunday really knows how to make me rush.
I had a good day despite the rain. I found my pink and purple polka dot umbrella, so I was semi-dry the entire day. Half of my classmates didn't show up in my first class. I got a D on my other midterm, and things are just swell.
Or so I thought.
I figured out what I want to do with.. well, life. I told myself that I will graduate and go into the Master's program. I will finish what I started and get my teaching degree. After graduating with my Masters, I want to move up north to DC or Arlington to attend The Art Institute of Washington, for Culinary Arts - Baking & Pastry. How much fun would it be for that silly conversation among my friends at last month's Lia Sophia jewelry party to come true? Of course, with a few modifications (no strip poles or anything sexually related). Instead, a family atmosphere... a bakery and coffee shop! Where I could hold children's baking classes, and parties where you can decorate your own cupcake! I hate making predictions about the future because life is so unexpected; however, this really excites me. Maybe, if I put my mind into one thing that I absolutely love, I could be successful... and happy. And I could show my parents that I can live life on my own.
I brought this proposition to my mother, after driving home with a chocolate frosty from Wendy's (I ordered vanilla, but I didn't care... I was excited about my revelation). And...
... she hates the idea.
I know that it's my life, and that I'm twenty-two. And I was angry and had an attitude with her for, well, that hasn't stopped yet. But, she... could be right.
I won't have money after college. I can't pay for life while working full-time and going to school. My mom suggested me to go to Japan... overseas... and teach there with a three-year contract. By then, seriously, I'll make a hell of a lot of money... more than if I taught here in the states. Trust me, it's like, $60,000+ a year for teachers overseas. And, Japan's my home... I love that place.
But I told her I hate the idea. I don't want to go to Japan... I want to go to Culinary school.
She said I could, after those three years, I'll still be young... (in her eyes only) and I'll have enough money to put me through school again... for culinary arts.
I see her point.
But.
Still.
I should focus on graduating. I'm afraid I won't ever graduate.
One more class that I can't sign up for because I haven't met the prerequisites.
Happy Thursday, live life.
