CHILLLLLLLS!

Why do my-favorite-book-turned-movie trailers give me the chills? I don't know.... I'll get back to you on that. I just ... love them.

{FANGIRL SCREAM}

Twilight Trailer-


Things I liked-
1) Eeery mood music. Very spooky.
2) The whole first minute. Pretty kosher. I liked how the 'fade to black' effect was used to make it feel like we are looking in, as an observer, blinking our eyes.
3) The 'Edward catching the apple in his hands, like the book cover!' thing. Cute! [Edward: Want some forbidden fruit? Me: YES.]

Things that made me giggle -
1)How monotone they were. "We are in love. Monotonously."
2)Edward's face when he is in the tree, explaining how his family is different. He looks as though he is pooping his pants.
3)Edward being a spider-monkey-vamp crawling up the tree.



Half-Blood Prince Trailer-

quote of the day.

At work...

(I work at a call center. We are those chipper people who call during dinner and ask if you'd like to take a survey. heh.)

[Me]: "Bla bla bla bla, thanks for your response. Next question is...."

[Nasty Backwoods Creeper Man]: "Ah am done with yerr survey. It's tahme for me to ask the questions. What is your name and have you ever been to a nudist colony?"

[Me]:"..."

Pushing Daisies and retardation.

Item 1- I am currently obsessed with the show "Pushing Daisies" on ABC. It's quite fantastical, hilarious and fun, and I've been watching the seasons of it ABC.com. I love the internet. Also, Ned the piemaker is a cutie patootie. Who doesn't love a guy in an apron?

"Want some pie?" YES.

Item 2- "Talking during a picture can give the illusion of mental retardation." -Kristin.
Very true, and the blog she posted on her childhood awkwardness has inspired me to make one of my own.

I don't think we have any pictures of me actually wearing my headgear, (shudder), but I still think you should prepare yourself for the raw, gritty photos of the orthodontic catastrophe that led to the necessity of my headgear that will be in my next blog. Be afraid.

Quotes from home.

Nicole: "Look at that guy. He's a hard-A."
[guy looks at her]
Nicole: "Oh my gosh he heard me! He's gonna kill me with his glock!"
----------------------------
Later on, at the dinner table...

Jackie: "Tupac faked his death. He's still alive."
Kristin/Michelle: "Hey, maybe Heath Ledger did too!"
Nicole: "Yea, Tupac is alive on some desert island with the black Michael Jackson."
---------------------------

Brook Tarbet: "Your dog looks like Two-Face."
Me: "Ozzie IS Harvey Dent."

The Office season 5.

It is going to be epic. I watched the opener tonight (ONE HOUR SPECIAL OHHHH YEA), and it was amazing. Almost every line in it was quote-worthy. I don't want to spoil anyone (in case you didn't catch it), so I will only disclose my favorite line -

"I wrote you a goodbye poem, and the last word was seagull."

-Michael, to Pam right before she drives away. (He then tries to kiss her goodbye.)


Also - I was looking for still shots from tonights episode, and I couldn't find any. Instead, I found this EW cover, and I kind of love it.

Quote of the day.

"Therefore I befriend that elephant in the room, and am guaranteed safety from flying pee, poo, and feet. Not to mention derrieres. Homies don't crush each other with their giant butts."

- Kristin

I think I like Fall Out Boy more than I liked Hanson.

No joke. And for those of you who knew me between the ages of 13 and 16, that is a bold declaration. I don't have their posters lining all my walls, (YET), but I am seriously considering it. (Late apologies to Kristin for having Hanson all over my walls when we were sharing a room in Jr High....)

FOB's new single is out, and their album drops 2 days before my birthday! I am in heaven.

Oh. And Patrick Stump is a dreamboat. Kthxbai!

Poverty.

"I'm just going to pay my tithing, pay my rent, and cross my fingers."
-me, to my mom
