Hunger Games

Ok. The Hunger Games movie comes out in a few days. Not going to lie I'm pretty excited to see it. But I would just like the world to know that I read them two weeks after they'd been published. I couldn't even get an author biography for my freshman english class. I remember we had to share about what we were reading in groups. Everyone else in my group was only ten pages into their book. I told them about mine, how it was about teens in a crazy society that had to fight to the death on television. They all looked at me like I was a freak and went uhmm, ok?

And now? THEY'RE ALL FREAKING EXCITED TO WATCH THE MOVIE. Stupid people. Only take time to pick up a book if they've been made into a movie. You know all those Twilight fans? The ones who only watched the movies that is. Did you know that the first people who proposed to buy the movie rights were going to make it into a spy movie and Bella was going to be a track star and it was going to be NOTHING like the book? Yeah.

It just annoys me that all the good books out there become movie s and then consequently become lame because of all the crap that comes with movies, like Barbies.

On another note, I'm almost done with Wuthering Heights! There were times I wanted to throw the book against the wall, but I'm liking it again. My goodness Heathcliff is a crazy man! The bestby asked me how it was going yesterday and I was like, Good! Heathcliff died and everyone gets to be happy! I haven't found out how he died yet but Nelly's getting there!

There's something seriously wrong with me. I was watching NCIS yesterday while eating and I got grossed out. So grossed out I had to turn the channel. I've eaten spaghetti through numerous autopsies before but yesterday I just couldn't do it. I just couldn't. What's happening to me?! So I watched Pretty Little Liars season finale instead. Note to self- don't watch the season finale of a show I haven't watched any other episodes of. Luckily I have a friend who's addicted to that show and gave me the low down. Man, I like their drama much better than what happens at our school.

Say Yes?

Well. Today I went dress shopping. And it was a really fun experience! I went a few weeks ago, and that wasn't as fun. I almost fainted because everything was so tight! And I looked like a little girl playing dress up. This time though, I felt sophisticated, it was a much better experience, and I may have found THE dress. I know it's one of these ones, but at the store I thought I was going to get one dress. But as I got home and looked through the pictures again, I think another one will work better and is really THE one. I'm going to sit on it though.  I thought it'd be fun to put the pictures up here and let you all see! Tell me which dress is your favorite! If there's two pictures together, it's the front and back.  How was dress shopping for you?  I like the lace and buttons on this dress     Love the top and flowyness of this dress. Really love the neck, top, and ruching on this dress. Not sure about the train though. This...

Book of Mormon Musical?

Well, it's here in Denver. Kind of hard not to notice it with all the signs. The Book of Mormon Musical. I have very mixed feeling about this. I know that in the grand scheme of the universe, this musical shouldn't bother me so much. But it really, really does. The Book of Mormon is something very near and dear to my heart. And I know that people make fun of the LDS church on an hourly basis. I've heard all the jokes. Not a big deal. Plus, I'm blonde. I can take a joke. But this musical really disturbs me. I listened to the songs when they were released, thinking oh, I'm gonna be one of those cool people who fights for this play. But then I really started listening to the words. And they bothered me. A lot. Saying that missionaries who are out in the field make up things on the spot, like having sex with frogs will get rid of aids, it bugged me. I don't even want to talk about some of the other songs. I heard them and felt, just not right. I was comforted by t...

I'm not going to waste time talking about why I have a blog or how this is my first new blog post, because I like to have faith in the human race and the fact that they can read and can interpret these things on there own. I mean, there aren't any posts under this one so obviously this is my first new post. And having a blog is not a mandatory thing to live so one could hypothetically conclude that this is for fun. That is hypothetically speaking of course. I just used 89 words explaining why I didn't need to explain something. I hope I counted that right. Anyways.  Three years ago today on a rainy day I remember being in a basement with a bunch of little people and adults for a scout thing. And I remember them talking about how a certain friend of mine was going to be a senior and how that's so crazy. I was just going to be a freshman at the time and thought I was the coolest thing since duct tape. (Sorry sliced bread, duct tape is waay cooler.) Now that friend is get...
