Mary’s Song (Oh, My, My, My) by Taylor Swift

Okay, I’ve returned (feel free to insert scary music… I’ll simply mock your choice of scary music).

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
I did (sort of).
I ate the turkey (sort of).
I …

Anyway, I had a very nice Thanksgiving.

Anyway, I officially have made Vampire Knight my favorite Japanese show (other than Human Tetris for those of you who are just as dorky as me and actually know what Human Tetris is. “You can Google it,” -Edward Cullen).

It’s a show about vampires (gasp! I had no idea!), and it focuses on the typical drama kicker: the love triangle. This time it’s a complicated relationship between Yuuki (female), Zero (male), and Kaname (male). But, I’m not going into it much ’cause then I’ll start ranting about how their animation quality started to drop (very badly) in the seventh episode of the first season.
Yep. I’m that precise.
Impressed? No?
Whatev.

I had the need to mention it because the second season (Vampire Knight Guilty) was released quite recently (if you look at it from a studio standpoint, a month or two ago is considered “recent”) and the storyline exceeded what the first season had. Even though some things really confuse you, trust me, it’s all cleared up in the end. And the most recent twist (I’m on ep. 8 s. 2, that’s the latest episode that has been released because at this point in time, the series is still running/presenting new episodes) has torn my heart into pieces and I cannot wait until next weekend.

..*eats a cookie*
delicious…

..*eats a twix bar*
delicious…

Anyway, enjoy the song recommendation. It’s a girly song (even though I’m not exactly the pom-pom kind of female, niether is the song).
It’s pretty much the real-life version of Love Story by Taylor Swift (please take the time to notice how both of those songs are by the same artist.) 

Is it just me or are more than half of Taylor Swift’s songs about love, breaking up, making up, typical high school/fantasy love drama.
Just checking.

Okay, uhm, bye.

penelope’s notebook was an unseen clique

All Around Me by Flyleaf

Oh, my dearest bloggers, I have not forgotten thee.

The past couple two days [[I know; it's been for-ever]] haven’t been that exciting. Nothing new except for my news of my day.

Okay (insert heavy sigh here) so today was a positive one. Except for a bunch of girls whom I was spending *counts with fingers* four and a half hours with kinda made it not as good, but I feel like I’m confusing you at this point in time.
Don’t worry, I’ll walk you through this one…

So, I spent most of my day at a friend’s house; we were supposed to watch four movies. We were planning to see (in this order) The Notebook, (another movie that I don’t remember the name of), Penelope, and The Clique. Several things contridicted our plans.

  1. The sound on her TV was malfunctioning
  2. The only way we could see those movies was in her basement, which was being used by her younger sibling
  3. She didn’t have the movies (but she did have other movies that weren’t as promising)

In the end, we played games.

First, we played a board game (Cranium I think it was called…) which was rather difficult because there were twelve girls total and the setting was just not very easy to play on. Second we played Mafia (the game I assure you), suggested by yours truly. The game is rather simple to explain and play when several girls (whom I mentioned a little earlier) aren’t screaming, yelling and laughing.

We played this game (which was rather difficult) the majority of the time we were there, until many of the girls (including me) were getting pretty sick of it. So, we finished up the round and started playing another game I suggested: Honey, I Love You.

We had to have a very important rule or else this wouldn’t be a very “appropriate” game: you were not allowed to touch the other person. The game is really quite fun when you have players who are good, bad, and so-so at it. In this case, only four of us (thats a third, people) showed some promise in not smiling, and only two (a sixth) were exceptionally skilled at the game.

My apologies, beloved readers, no rant today.
Happy [Early] Thanksgiving [If I don't post again tomorrow]

Adieu loves

twilight this, twilight that, and a visit to forever 21 & yogen früz

Bella’s Lullaby by Carter Burwell

Konichiha readers [[you very few of them]]
How has your day been so far?
Good? Bad? Asi-asi [[for those of you who take Spanish]]?
Well, my day was half-decent.

For you nincompoops you don’t know, I am a diehard Twilight fan.

I started reading the series last year in LA (Language Arts) and have loved it since; even though there are some things I don’t like about the book (which may not make me a “diehard” fan, but that’s debateable), I still am a devoted fan to the series.

Although, I’m not a screaming fangirl. There’s a ha-uge difference between a fangirl and an educated fan. I’ve read all the books, I showed my enthusiasm for the movie (during the movie by screaming for the Cullens, Edward, Jacob, etc.; there was a dark period in time when I doubted in the movie’s preformance, though), and other things.

So, the reason I bring up the Twilight subject sparaticly sporadically (theres my use of dictionary.com again) is because I saw the movie twice. Once on Friday, and once today (Sunday). Sadly (sort of), I’m not able to cry during movies in theatres, only on my couch in my basement or in my bed watching it on my DVD player. While I was sitting there, not crying, these dorks I call my friends (sorry Megan, can’t hang out tomorrow, previous plans) were crying during different parts in the movie.
Just felt like blogging about my friends’ and my own crying patterns.

For those of you who want to go see the movie but don’t want to spend $6-$15 (depending on where you live) because you think it might be a waste of money, trust me, it’s not. It’s true that they left some parts out of the book, but since when have they made a movie that hasn’t?! It is pretty much impossible to make a movie that is under three hours for a best-seller book that is 400+ pages long.
Now if they were making a TV show about it (okay two things about that: (1) you have to admit it’d be pretty cool (2) wouldn’t it be pretty expensive) and they still left out parts of the book, that would be unacceptable.

Still, the movie was pretty fantastic.

  • Edward was charming.
  • Bella was a klutz (I didn’t need dictionary.com for that word; I know it all too well).
  • Jacob Black + Billy  Black= teehee
  • Rosalie? just like the book (kitty with claws)

Anyway, no rants today; I apologize for ze bad blog.

Ciao babes. Love ya
-Sara
