Random thoughts

I'm really bored, so I'm just going to recap over the past week. Last weekend was the Iron Bowl. Can I get a War Eagle? However, I don't actually despise Alabama like a lot of Auburn fans. I pull for them as long as they're not playing us (or if their win affects something like the SEC championship). Most of that has to do with the fact that I hang out with the UA cheerleaders every other year, including last Friday night. However, I missed the Saturday brunch because of stupid band practice. We had a pretty good time. There was definitely a lot of food...and ice cream! It comes in handy that my aunt's neighbor owns Brusters. Very convenient. Anyway...

All my roomies went home Sunday, so I've had the place to myself all week. I'm not sure if I've ever been so bored in my entire life. I've had the chance to be soooo lazy. I've slept in every day. It's nice not to have to worry about stupid papers and homework and tests for a few days. I had three papers due last Friday...and of course, I wait until Thursday night to even start. That wasn't very much fun. I have done some cool stuff this week. I've been to the movies every single day since Sunday. Here are my critiques.

Sunday: Harry Potter 4- Very good movie, as I expected. I heard it left some stuff out from the book, but I've never read any of the books and I wouldn't have a clue. Highly recommended.
Monday: Saw 2- It was okay. It's a little hard to comprehend and keep up with at the end. Just like the first one, there's a pretty big twist. Definitely a big gorey, but pretty well directed.
Tuesday: Saw 2 (again)- yeah, a friend wanted to see it so I went again. It was pretty funny. He was like, "I've got it figured out, do you?" I just nodded my head and typed my predictions into my phone. I predicted the whole movie (even the things that were absolutely impossible to figure out) and showed him at the end. He probably thinks I'm psychic. Sweet.
Today: RENT- Oh my goodness! It was incredible. However, I do think you get more out of it if you've seen the play. I went with a group of friends from Valley, and we saw it in London a couple years ago. I figured the movie would be just like every other musical they've made into a movie...throwing out the songs and adding dialogue. Nope, not this one. They did add some dialogue, but 90 percent of the movie was singing. It was just like that play...only...a movie. Yeah. And it was really cool that they used the original Broadway cast. It was awesome!

Okay..onto the subject of fish. You know how we got 8 new goldfish about a week and a half ago? Yeah...we're down to one. One fish! I've had to perform three fishy funerals since the girls left. I don't know what we're doing wrong! But it's really frustrating. We bought them a nice ten gallon aquarium, decorations, glow in the dark grass, a bubbling oyster thing, breeding grass...yes, breeding grass, and a neon playset thing. And now there's only one fish (Fred) to enjoy it! If anyone knows any fish secrets, please let me know.

Guess what I got to do today! Give up? Okay, I'll tell you. I got to ride a 944cc (I think) motorcycle. It was so cool. It's David's bike, and the battery was dead so I went over a jumped it off. Then, we went for a nice little ride. That thing will fly! And now I want one even more. I've got a need for speed! :op

Well, tomorrow's Thanksgiving. I'll be heading to Wedowee, where the cow population outnumbers the human population. I'm ready for that food...especially the famous dressing. Oh yeah. That's one thing I have to be thankful for. I'm going to try to be more aware of all the blessings around me. I tend to complain alot, as well as take advantage of everything that's been given to me. I definitely don't deserve it. Hopefully I can carry past tomorrow and make every day a "Thanksgiving" holiday...only without the dressing. Happy Turkey Day!
