Have you seen these...? Totally Brilliant. The Aquaman is, strangely enough, my favorite, I think...? It's just so Perfect :D

I'm happy to hear you're going to be watching "Never Let Me Go" sometime soon(try not to be too distracted by those bangs...), and utterly amused at the idea that you would have joined in on those Topless Barbie Protests, had you been around when they were being held :D Because you totally would have. That's what it sounds like. Your contribution to the Anti-Barbie Sisterhood. Topless Solidarity. You could have done it...! And not been arrested for it. Maybe next time...?

Just select passages. But the consensus turned out to be that he's a Jerk. Whatever. I hope to never have to go through that again in my _life_, though. A total barrage of Lady Opinions and Advice. It's so... I don't know. Again, Mothers :\ Maybe that will be my first step toward Independence, then. Going to my haircut appointments all by myself. Then I won't have to worry about being mortified or anything, because I'll be in charge of the conversation and what details are shared. Yeah. At least I emerged with the hair length I love so much, though :) So that's one good thing to be said for Yesterday~ ...Not much else, though :\ Since the rest of the day was spent indoors... But yeah, anyway. I'm sorry to hear about Mr. Nintendo's injury too :( A bunch of hooligans... But you know, maybe he should look at it as a War Wound, and an Interesting Story to Tell, and just as long as he wasn't seriously injured... Things could be a lot worse, right...?

But I just said that I hadn't. And then I asked if she'd read the Twilight books, because 50 Shades of Grey originally began life as a Twilight fanfiction... She hadn't, though. Read Twilight. And wasn't aware of the fanfiction thing, so maybe I passed on to her a valuable literary recommendation or something. Which I will feel gross and dirty about for the rest of my Life, honestly :\ But yeah, so. That was fine. ...I mean, it _wasn't_, because Lady Book Talk Time, I don't know... But then the subject of my Prom came up. And my age, which was kind of Awesome, because all the Ladies were like "I can't believe you aren't eighteen! What's your secret!!!", and that always makes me feel good... But then my mother decides to take a Salon Wide poll about my relationship with Don T_T Because it was all females. And she wanted a Female Opinion. So _that_ was beyond mortifying. Having to hear a bunch of ladies weigh in with their opinion of a relationship they don't know the full story about.

is it a book, but it's my _favorite_ book ever, so I tend to be super harsh toward the adaptations made of it, blah blah blah, etc., and we were saying how the movies are never quite as good as the books anyhow. And then she was like "Well, one book I don't know how they're going to turn in to a decent movie is 50 Shades of Grey...", and then the entire hair salon erupts in to this conversation about how great those books are. Yeah, I know. How, like, sure they're Erotica, but they have a _real storyline_ behind them too. A _solid, well written story_(yes, they actually praised how well the books are written, no kidding), with _characters you care about and get invested with_. Uh huh. And then she's like "Have you ever read any of them?", and it was a Serious Question, so I couldn't have given the answer I wanted to give, which would also have been Serious, but also Seriously Rude... I wanted to respond "No, I have not read those books, cos I'm not a Pervert :\"...

I'm sorry to hear your "Party" was a bit of a bust :( But you did say it was a Party for a Teacher Friend, so perhaps that could have been the expected result... Light on Partying, Heavy on Somber Adult Talk :D ...Unless Teachers really can party hard, if they want to. I've never known one of them on a Friendship Level, so, you know. Yeah. But you know, maybe count your blessings, that you weren't in the type of situation _I_ had to endure yesterday, which was, oh... So I ended up getting my haircut yesterday. Because I lucked out, and my stylist happened to be working, and I was Thrilled, since I seriously needed a haircut and figured it would cheer me up to get one. Which it did. Kind of. Sort of. Maybe. Yes. So. Things started off fine. ..Well, not really. We stumbled in to a conversation about "50 Shades of Grey"... Yeah, I know. I know. But I was telling her how I'd just seen The Great Gatsby, and she wasn't even aware that it was a book... So I was explaining to her that not only

Like, seriously, I knew what I wanted to say, but trying to translate those things from my brain to my mouth. I couldn't. I froze. And felt like an idiot, because all I did was sit there in silence and stare blankly around the room. And that's been happening a lot lately. I either run away from new people... Like, literally run away... Or I freeze up and can't speak. I was making progress, but now... I don't know. I'm back to being scared all of the time. Fun Times, then :) Anyway... Are you going to make a pilgrimage to the Barbie Dream House at any time? :D Might see additional examples of hawt topless ladies for your troubles...

And no, I know, everyone has been telling me that the best thing I could do for myself is distance myself from people in Melissa's Circle, because it never ends well... She attracts people who are like herself, and not to be a jerk or anything, but Melissa is... Well. I don't even know. You know something of how she is. So yeah. As somebody to do some things with Now. I don't mind the idea of hanging around her boyfriend terribly. Maybe. Possibly. I've... I've not been doing too well lately though, with Meeting New People... Like, Melissa sprung on me at the last minute when I was over there Friday that she was having a friend over that she wanted me to meet, and ten minutes after he got there, I retreated to Don's room and had a little breakdown, complete with tears. I just got overwhelmed, and felt totally helpless, that these conversations were being had that I could _totally_ have contributed things to, but I couldn't make the words come out of my mouth.

It's a sweet story, for sure, and I think I took away something from it that I was supposed to... The idea of "the grass isn't always greener on the other side", and that finding Someone in life that you can love and feel responsible for is a super important thing... Being truly unselfish and putting someone else's needs and whatever before your own...? But yeah, I'm not going to treat the book as my Bible. Which some people seem to, I swear to goodness. Like it's this Holy Text or something, full of Universal Truths. ...And maybe it is, actually. Full of Universal Truths. I like it, though. As a story. I'm just not going to dissect it and quote it for the rest of my life or anything. So! Going to start "The Books of Magic" now :) ...I mean, not _right_ now, because I'm online and everything, but, you know. Soon. When I'm offline. And have the time. Yes.

Anyway, do you know what's cool? The Great Gatsby is the one book that has meant the most to Haruki Murakami :) I think that is so Darn Awesome... That we both have a shared appreciation. And maybe it's why, on some level, I like Murakami's books so much...? Because he's influenced by Fitzgerald, and I love Fitzgerald too. ..But it must be on some, like, indescribable level, because I couldn't pick out stories or passages or nothing where I could say "Yes, I see the Fitzgerald influence here" in Murakami's works. Still. Knowing it's there. So Awesome~ ...Do you know, it's said that that is how we Americans describe everything? As being Awesome :D It's an overused expression, I guess. Fair enough... Anyway. Yeah. Finished "The Little Prince". ...And secretly a little glad to hear someone actually say "I believe it's overrated", because yeah. I Don't Get It Either.

to the movie, he says right in there "I've been drunk three times in my life", so okay, if he's only been drunk three times in his life, how, exactly, did he develop a case of "morbid alcoholism"? Wouldn't that require, like, perpetual drunkenness? Or are you not able to acknowledge being an alcoholic, when you're an alcoholic? So you may not think you're drunk, but the World is like "Man, you are Drunk, get out of here". I have no idea. But it's stupid! It's stupid! It was so stupid! And annoying. And I don't know. Booooooooo. Just boooooooooo. I should have made like Fitzgerald and Zelda when they attended a screening of the '26 Great Gatsby movie, and walked right out of there. Oh, and I don't think I missed much, not seeing it in 3-D. It looked fine in 2-D, so I don't think I'm going to be spending any more of my money on going to see that movie again in any form. No way. Maybe I'll take the money I have left over and go get my hair cut off...

It was gorgeous to look at, though. I'll give it that. But it was rotten to actually try and sit and appreciate as a decent adaptation of a book that I totally adore, because it wasn't. But maybe that was my whole problem. I'm probably never going to accept any adaptation because I can't remove my personal expectations and feelings about the book itself, because I like it so much, right? And Carey Mulligan as Daisy, my goodness... She was... Not good at all... I don't think I've seen such a stilted, forced performance in... Well. Quite awhile. It's like she spent every single scene leaning slightly forward, waiting in heavy anticipation to cut in with her next line read. Because that's all it was. Her reading lines from the book, and not very convincingly. It didn't feel natural _at all_. And I hated the fact they put Nick in a sanitarium, diagnosing him with "morbid alcoholism". Which didn't make any sense _anyway_, because right in the book... And this is something that was carried

But if you want me to elaborate... I almost walked out of the theater, one minute in to the movie. Because they _totally_ screwed up the opening line of the book, even though stupid Baz Luhrmann and the other guy who worked on the script along with him kept patting themselves on the back in interviews over the fact they kept to the dialog in the book so faithfully. No they didn't. No they didn't. Not when they screwed up the opening line, which is one of the most quoted ones in the book. Instead of being "In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice that I've been turning over in my mind ever since. .'Whenever you feel like criticizing any one," he told me, "just remember that all the people in this world haven't had the advantages that you've had.'" Instead it was "In my younger years, my father gave me some advice "Always see the best in people", or some such nonsense. Yeah, okay. Whatever. Your movie is off to a great start, stupid Baz Luhrmann.

But then as I was actually reading the story out loud, I realized how disturbing and morbid it was, so I thought better of sharing it. Cos even though I was reading it out loud, the kid had fallen asleep two sentences in, so he didn't hear much of the story, I don't think. And I mean, it's not like morbid Children's Stories don't exist, because there's The Grimm Brothers, you know? And practically their entire output. But I don't know. I think I'll wait until he's a little older, before sharing that story again with him... My little brothers were obsessed with it, though, when they were around his age, which is why I initially thought it'd be Okay to share, but I don't know... I'll read it to his father or something first, as a bedtime story, because he's never read it either, and I'll let him judge. Yeah. So. And speaking of Stories. "The Great Gatsby". Boooooooooooooo, That is my review, in a word.

On Friday night. We got him to go to this local school's playground that is a couple of blocks away, and it turns out they were having this Outdoor Carnival thing there, so we stayed for a bit... He requested that _I_ actually play on the playground with him again, so I did... Didn't bruise myself this time, though, unlike last time... On that zip line thing, you know. Made it successfully across two times without slamming in to anything Metal :0 But the good mood I had from that was quickly dashed when this little boy asked me "Are you a girl?". I was like "Are you seriously asking me that question?", so then he was like "Oh, okay, you are a girl". I was totally heartbroken :( And then when I told Don what happened, he just laughed. His little boy said he'd punch the kid for me, though. Which I thought was nice. At least one person wanted to defend my honor :( But yeah. So there was sleep overs, where I thought it was appropriate to read "The Five Chinese Brothers" as a bedtime story

So either way I would have felt like a Jerk, I guess. No matter what decision I made and what plan I went with. Sorry for disappearing on Saturday morning, too... One last minute invitation that I _did_ and could accept was one to have a slumber party with Don and his little boy, so that's how I spent my Friday Night... Playing a whole bunch of SNES games, because my attempt to spice things up by bringing my PS2 over didn't work out, because I didn't have a remote control, and... Yeah, it couldn't be done. Not yet, anyway. In the Future, though. ...Although maybe the last thing I should be bringing over there is a Newer, Cooler game system, because that's going to encourage him to want to stay indoors instead of going outside and enjoying the warm weather, you know? Which wouldn't exactly be a good thing. I'll have to discuss it, I guess... Because already, I'm thinking Don is tiring of having the SNES over there since it's hard to tear the boy away from it... We managed to, tho.

So how was your Saturday Birthday Party...? Perhaps you're still going to be in the recovery process from it, so you won't be prepared to talk about it just yet...? :D Yesterday was a popular day for Birthday Parties, I guess, because my cousin was having one, and my mother and I were invited to attend, but we didn't find out about it until the last minute, and I already had plans with Don and his Mother, so I couldn't have gone anyway... But I was told that I should have re-scheduled those plans, so I could have attended this party, because my cousin is turning five, doesn't have a lot of little friends to invite, and really wanted us to be there. ...But I don't like the idea of having to tell someone at the last minute "Sorry, this more important invitation came up, can we go to the movies some other time". Seems pretty rude to me. Or maybe it isn't. I don't know. But I ended up going to the movies anyway. And feel like a Jerk, because I didn't/couldn't go to the party.

Melissa was telling me that they plan on remaking Pet Semetery, which is utter nonsense, because there is nothing at all wrong with the original. The gore still stands up, the movie itself isn't cheesy at all... It's really well done, and perfectly cast, and man, just leave it alone :\ But noooo. ...There's really a magazine called Burger Business...? Hm! Maybe you should try the Burger Creation my boyfriend came up with, and is currently popular in his household... He puts a burger between two onion bagels. ...I personally think it sounds Gross, and like Too Much Bread, but they all insist its delicious. Melissa even suggested I try one, and Don had to remind her that I don't eat hamburgers :\ So so much for my sister knowing me well :\

It's always Medication and Therapy, not Therapy on its own. And maybe that _is_ the more successful method of treatment, but I'm terrified of taking medications, because the side effects _do_ worry me, so, you know. Yet another way in which I am a total Odd Bird in Today's Society. I'm used to it, though~ ...Sort of. ...Kind of. ...Maybe. Anyway, yeah, I don't know why American Audiences are discouraged from seeing the Asian Originals by being supplied with the American Remake... But, like, maybe the American Remake will make more people _want_ to see the Asian Original, and then they're eventually learn the lesson of not settling for Crummy Copies? I'd like to think so. Like, that's what will happen with "Oldboy" :D But really, we keep coming back to the question of "Why can't Hollywood leave _anything_ alone", because these movies they want to remake just keep rolling in... Not that this is a concern of yours, since you aren't invested in Horror movies or anything, but...

I invited her, so I should be responsible for her. Boys, honestly :\ In What World is it proper decorum to be all "I'm taking my mother to the movies, but I'm letting her buy her own ticket". I can't imagine it. Or maybe it's something to do with how I was raised... Anyway! "Side Effects" doesn't sound so bad... Maybe I'll work up the nerve to spend more time with Jude Law and see it one of these days... Because yeah, that _is_ a good point to build a movie around. The idea that there is a Pill for Everything, because I swear to goodness, that is generally what you leave the doctors office with, no matter what you enter for. They always want to give you some kind of medication to take. Which is great for people like my sister, who don't want to put in the effort to get themselves better all on their own... Goodness, the stories I could tell you... But bad for people like Me, who _do_ want to try to do things on their own. You're, like, totally discouraged from that though.
