Let her cry, if her tears fall down like rain

So, the other night I rented Remember Me. If you remember I had read about the ending and was very upset about it, so I never actually saw the movie in theaters. Well, I watched it, loved it, realized at the end what was about to happen, and when it did I started bawling. It was terrible. I mean I knew it was gonna happen, but that didn't help at all. It was still bad. I was just thankful that I was alone when I watched it and not in a theater full of people. So, after I was done watching it I was just sitting here and I got to thinking about other movies that make me cry. Here are some examples: The Notebook, Dear John, The Last Song, Pearl Harbor, Titanic, and A Walk to Remember. Just to name a few.

     

In other movie news I have recently seen Shutter Island, The Lovely Bones, and the absolutely amazing Toy Story 3. What have you been watching lately and what makes you cry?

P.S. I am working on changing my blog's look. If anyone knows how to make it wider without have to use one of the blogger default things please let me know :)

book movies

So, while I am watching New Moon I got to thinking about books that get turned into movies. They're either really good or really bad.

Let's start with Twilight. It had the potential to be a really good movie. But instead it looked really bad. I mean it was blue for goodness sake. Who wants to watch a movie that's blue. I mean I went and saw it a bunch of times in theatres and who knows how many times, but the more I watch it the worse it gets. But thankfully New Moon got better. So, I am hoping that as they go along they will just continually get better.

Now Dear John that was a good book to movie. It had most of the same story with only a few changes that didn't change the story too much. And they had a good script and director who knew what they were doing when they made the movie.

Even though Vampire Diaries is a show not a movie I'm gonna include it anyway. Now, I love the books and the show, but other than the characters and the main premise they are nothing the same. The books focus mainly on the love triangle between Elena, Stefan, and Damon, while the show doesn't have that. But by doing them differently they made it to where you could have almost two different stories for the characters to choose which one you like the best.

Since the Last Song hasn't been released yet I can't really comment on how it actually is, but from the commercials, clips, and things I've read it seems that the movie has followed the book pretty good so I am very excited to see how the final movie comes out. Another book that will be interesting to see is The Hunger Games. It's not supposed to come out until 2011, but they could either make it a really good movie or it could turn out horribly wrong in which case I would probably cry. Not really, but I would be really mad at whoever made it. What book to movies do you really like or despise?

Can't Hardly Wait

Thst is the movie that I am watching at this moment and I believe that everyone should go and watch it, seriously. So, I'm really not so good at this blogging thing. I never can really think of anything to post like ever, and when I can I don't have time to actually blog, and by the time I do have time I forgot my great idea. It's a pretty sad story. So as always I will just tell you of things in my life.

So I finished my term paper which is like a huge weight off of my shoulder. So that is part of the reason for lack of blogging. At first it was to just work on it and then I just needed a lot of time to recover. If I never had to do one again I would more than be happy, but unfortunately I know I will have more. Sad.

I got some really cool dance footundies. I have needed some of these for like 2 years, but I finally just went and ordered myself some. They are amazing!

Scrubs! This is the funniest show ever that I had never wanted to watch. But after hearing Chelsea talk about its funnyness for so long I decided to watch. And it was amazing. Everyone should watch it!

I wish I could be as cool as the guys from The Buried Life. Like literally I wish I could just marry one of them or even just meet them. One of these days I will get around to making my own list of a hundred things to do.

So me and Chelsea are going to have the most awesomest Chocoholic 17th birthday party there ever was. Yea, it's gonna be awesome. And then we are going to see the most awesome movie of all time to ever come out, Dear John! Hooray!

Well, that's all I have to say right now and tonight I will finally watch The Hangover and see what everyone is so in love with. I will let you know what I think later. Oh yeah and we got out of school early today! Hooray! But boo to the school board for making us go at all.

This week recap

Well I have been trying to come up with something awesome to write about to like bring closure to 2009, but I came up with nothing.

I know pretty sad but everything I could think of would require hours of looking up pictures all over my computer from when my computer crashed, so everything was pretty much out. So instead I will tell of the awesomness of the last week of 2009.

Well how about we start at Christmas Eve.

On Christmas Eve our family had presents with my mom's friend from Memphis and the Stricklin family.

In all of that wonderfulness I recieved an awesome necklace, a new clock that lights up, some fun socks, and a picture of me and Katie.

Mine looks like that "A" one.

Then we got to open another present from our parents like we do every year before church and I got a cool sweater from American Eagle.

We then went on to church and all that good stuff and went to my granny's for Christmas with that family. We had lots of good food and fun with my little cousin. Oh and I got all the seasons of The O.C. (except 3) and season 2 of Gossip Girl and Dear John (best book ever), The Time Traveler's Wife and The Carlyles Gossip Girl.

We then went home to sleep. Then Christmas morning came. It was very exciting. All week long my family had had a debate about Hardee's being open on Christmas so for first breakfast we had Hardee's.

We then got to do our Santa presents. They were awesome. Among the greatness were giftcards to Hollister and American Eagle, a guitar, an ipod car jack, and some movies.

The guitar looks like this but without the blue, it's black instead.

We then went to our other Grandma's for that Christmas breakfast which usually takes place around 1 or 2 in the afternoon. But I get to hang out with my favorite cousin Kera. So it's all good. Then we finally got to eat and everybody just kinda hung out until presents and then we came back home for some much needed rest time.

We then went back to Grandma'a later for dinner which was soooooo yummy. I can just taste it now, but anyways. After that we came home and spent the whole night relaxing.

The next day was so much fun. We had family game night with the Stricklin's and Chelsea. First, we played us some Wii Fit Plus, which I must say is very entertaining, especially the chicken flap game. Oh if only you could have seen it the first time. Bahahahahahahahaha. We then played a very tough round of Trivial Pursuit, kids vs. adults, and very surprisingly the kids won. It was great and then we played some Apples to Apples. I had never played before and I now regret what I was missing all those years. The best game ever.

Well after all of our late night fun. When it was time to go to bed instead of being good little children, what did me and Chelsea do you might ask. I am ashamed to say that we stayed up until 3:30 watching The O.C. and reading Dear John. I know it's so sad especially since we were to get up at 8:00 the next morning to go to Nashville. But we did.

Well it's getting kind of late and I'm getting tired so I will continue with my recap. tomorrow night.
