atonement= genius

Ok even though it is painful to say, Cranky Man is right. Atonement is better than JUNO (but still see JUNO)

So basically Atonement is going to win picture of the year...well maybe not at the Golden Globes, because those are likely not to happen and this devestates me.

Lets see Atonement where to begin....But you might not want to continue reading if you haven't seen the film.

-Well it has really neat flashbacks and I am a sucker for any film with flashbacks.
-The sounds of the typewriter and lighter were incredibly creepy and awesome.
-Some of the camera shots were amazingly cool, most of them were on Briony...but the best one came at the end and it was of the dead Cecilia, Mo really loved this one. Oh and the one of the family on the steps outside as they see Robby return home with the twins, LOVE THAT ONE
-Kiera Knightly did not bug me at all, which is remarkable.
-The actor who played Robby did a fine job and he is quite good-looking.
-The actresses who played younger Biony and adult Biony were wonderful, she continued to stay creepy and awkward throughout the entire movie.
-The scene when the soldiers were rushed in was graphic, but real and I loved it, even if I had to close my eyes.
-I also loved the scene showing the soldiers camped out on the abandoned amusment park. The scene was depressing, but quite lovely.
-I am still laughing about the incident with the letter.
-That is all, however it really needed a witty girl name Juno

Next Movie to see: Kite Runner ;-) But I am serious

Have a fabulous day

Weird...

So I was listening to some songs from Juno and there was one called 12/26 and I wanted to know what was significant about 12/26, so I googled it and guess what? On 12/26/1606 King Lear was preformed for the first time! That is not why the song is called that (I don't think...), a lot of things happened on 12/26, but I thought it was a cool coincidence.

Here is the song in case you are interested:

So how was everyone's Christmas?

You should all put down your My Antonia books and go see JUNO!

Have a fabulous day

I <33 UPS guys and channel 10 news

Snow Day tomorrow!
channel 10 news > lame website mr. ro uses, pffff 1 inch, try 3-6


Mo and I did our presentation today, our movie was basically amazing and so were our surveys. Gloucester did favor Edgar! We swear!

-Mo was right about the paparazzi !It has already begun!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zOaHG_FlkU&feature=related

Mo and I drove into a ditch, because we are dumbasses and decided it was still safe to drive to Mo's house even though she lives in the middle of nowhere, and LC has a crappy car. Thankfully UPS guys saved us

I hate winter

Winter time sucks.

LC and I almost died today on the way home from school. And I practically ruined my sneakers in the snow.

Nothing has been happening in second period except for presentations which are not exciting to talk about.

Burma

Everyone needs to go to this website and read all about it and sign the online petition and then spread the word..

I'm bored so I'll blog..

I should probably go to bed, or do homework, but I don't feel like doing either...

So, LC and I are premiering our video tomorrow during second period. It's going to be great; wear nice clothes 'cause there will be lots of press.

For those of you that happen to read this before second period tomorrow, here are the bloopers:

Because I know you all are absolutly dying to see the real thing.

In other news, my heart happens to be shattered in a million pieces because the Jan. 20th Cobra Starship show is totally, unbearably, devastatingly, soul-crushingly, sold out. And it's the only one near me. And it was sold out within hours that the tickets went on sale. I literally don't think I can go on. Also, my shutter shades havn't come in yet... My life is a pit of neverending sorrow.

Scandinavians are cool

It's true that our video is Oscar-worthy, but I think that maybe this one is better:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=31x2WpuSAkA&feature=related
Scandinavians can really dance.
And their song writing skills are top-notch too.

It's movie time

Mo and I finished our King Lear video today. It is possibly Oscar-worthy. I think I am going to send it to all of the colleges I am applying to, because they will be dying to have me in their film program once they see it.

Basically Cranky Man should give us an A without even seeing our presentation.

My new favorite class = Cranky Man's period 5
-this class is filled with very intellectual sophomores, who enjoy putting staples through their arms and acting like birds.

This morning Cranky Man made me very angry by
a)giving us an extended poetry project that is due before x-mas vaca...because he hates x-mas
b) not letting me do my project on grasshopper (I suggest you read it http://plagiarist.com/poetry/270/) Ms. Z would not let me use this poem my sophomore year either...lame
c) making us use Marvel, which I simply can not do because I am against everything that the library natzi believes in, since she kicked me out of the library for "abusing the sign-out sheet."

But then I liked Cranky Man again because he saved me from the substitute from hell..and I am not talking about double glasses.

Have a fabulous day
-I must go eat cheese + cider

snow day

Monday is going to be a snow day...that is all I have to say
