Did you know?

Next week my English class will be starting the Great Gatsby, the book that I've been anticipating the most this year! Today we watched a film on the 1920s so that we can have a better understanding of the book and its details.

So.... here's a Fun Fact:

Did you know that the scene in Some Like It Hot when Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis are in the parking garage and Spats Colombo has his men take out those 7 guys in the parking garage on Valentines Day? Yeah well that's based on an actually event, Al Capone and the Valentine's Day Massacre, happened in a parking garage and everything!

And here's some more fun facts! 

This Tuesday there's supposed to be a comet headed towards Earth, so keep a look out Tuesday night!

And one more!

Today is International Women's Day, so say thank you to a woman in your life! ;)

I love you all and have a happy weekend!!!

And a HAPPY

to Christopher and Brendan!! :)

Catching Up....

So I realized today while I was talking to Brendan that I had been bad about keeping you guys posted on some things. I'm not selfish or self obsessed, but I know that you all want to know what's going on in my life!! Now I know that you all have been dying to know about the movies I'm in in Film! So I'll tell you:

Flawless

Melissa (me) is accused of killing her best friend Stacy. Rumors are flying around the school that she's the one that did it and she's being ostracized for it. Her friend Jennifer tries to "comfort" her, but as we find out it's Jennifer who really killed Stacy and also kills Melissa because they "knew too much".

• So I die, am sad, and misunderstand! Yeah!!

Skip and Gigi

We open on two people, Skip and Gigi. They appear normal, but are they? We follow them through a whole day, through the ups and downs of a relationship, and get few minutes to relax as we watch this silent movie. As the movie continues we see that they are actually dogs. (Bella will be playing the dog version of Gigi) 

• So basically the movie is about dogs who see themselves as humans....
• I am a doggie owner...

Now this Saturday is Winter Formal! So I thought that I'd give you sneak peak at my dress:

I'm thinking some cute black flats because my date is the same height as me! Now ladies, any idea for hair? I'm thinking down...

I love you all!! Let's get better about keeping in touch!! <3

In the Eye of the Storm

The storm has almost passed.

Only ONE more final to go!! And then I'm done for another semester, and do you know what that means?! In 5 months I'll technically be a SENIOR!!!! That's crazy.

What's really crazy is that I'm finally DONE with Online Health!!! Hallelujah, praise the Lord!! What I loved the most was for our final we had to go to her classroom and take it, 100 fairly laughable questions, and then a written portion. You'd think that we'd be asked about STIs and their effects, the 6 main nutrients of the body, the reproductive system, yada yada yada.... Nope, I had to write a 60 point worth paragraph on how I've grown and what I've learned about myself taking an high school online course. Does it get easier than that folks? I think not.

Now after I take my last final (English) I will be enjoying this beautiful classic:

With two of my favorite leading men :D

Thank you Film for giving me something to look forward to!!

My discovery...

So last Thursday my Film class went to LACMA, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, where I saw this painting:

The Magdalen with the Smoking Flame by Georges de La Tour

Does it look familiar? It should:

It's in Ariel's cavern "under the sea". Crazy right?! I think that it's awesome!!! Go Disney and art!!

Living the Dream

I have finally lived a childhood dream!

That's right I had chocolate milk WITH the red and white striped straw!! That's right this just happened!

Be jealous ;)

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star...

Ever since Fiji I have fallen head over heals in love with the stars. I've never seen a sky so black or stars so bright, as a matter a fact I've never seen so many stars in my life! But with the time change I don't get to see my stars in the early morning before seminary like I used to and I miss my stars.

Till tonight then...

Happy Veterans Day

Thank you to the men and women who currently serve and served this country and to all those that gave their lives for us.
