A Potential Millionaire in the Slums of India, A Poor Cursed Girl, Several Potheads, A Former President/Goonie, HOMECOMING, and more!

I shall start with Homecoming.

It was awesome! It was at a place called Eagles Landing, a building reserved for special events. It was on base. There were several big rooms, the main one carpeted, then with a wooden floor for the dance floor. It was dark for most of the time and we got some glowsticks. There was an attached room that was lighted where the food was. There was pizza, vegetables, dip, fried chicken, and...

A CHOCOLATE FOUNTAIN

You could take toothpicks and stick them in marshmallows, grapes, strawberries, those sort of things, and dip them in the chocolate. It was so amazing! I barely ate anything, though, for I had a bad stomach and went to the bathroom several times.

Back to the dancefloor. There were several tables on the outskirts of the main room, and they had several packets of German Gummy Bears. They each had those fiberoptic tree like thingies -

those

- as the centerpiece for each table.

I danced a lot. It was extremely fun. It was me, Squishy, and a friend I have yet to talk about. I shall call her Gemini (she wants to change her name to that). YAAAAY! They mostly played hip hop songs, but imagine my surprise when they played COBRA STARSHIP ("Good Girls Go Bad") for the last song. I was extremely ecstatic. At the beginning, I had a french braid (JSYK, I got my hair done at Gemmi's house), but took it out when it bounced around a lot. Felt guilty for it though. I kinda wished a guy danced with me... But I did dance with my friends!

At the end of the dance, we were about to leave, we found out that someone had the exact pair of shoes as Squishy's. And we had two pairs... So we went around yelling, "Did anyone lose their shoes?" and "Whose shoes are these?". We eventually just left them on a table and left and we had an awesome time. It took that one dance to let me know I will definitely hit a night club or two in a few times throughout my life. Here are some pictures:



Squishy (LOOKS AMAZING!)

And I watched a lot of movies. Some I saw before seeing them again, some were the first time. Here they are:



Slumdog Millionaire:

Oh. My. God. This movie was uh-MAZING! Everything was! The acting, the cinematography, the story, EVERYTHING! It was passionate, it was beautiful! I was dying to know what would happen next. What I say: WATCH IT!

I've already watched this and talked about this one:



Penelope:

WATCH IT



Pineapple Express:

Hilarious and Hot (in the form of James Franco! Who knew he could be a pothead?) WATCH IT and it's just amazing ; it's like wtf? That's what this movie is. After I watched it I had several thoughts. One of them was in "The Village", the village "special education" guy (played by Adrien Brody - he's usually badass - not in this role), he seems less..."special" (okay most of the time he seems special), but at least some of the time, he seems on drugs, because he sometimes acted like the guys of Pineapple Express. This movie, you MUST watch it (and watch The Village too).



W. :

This movie is unbiased, so if you want to see George W. Bush in a new light (rather than the terrible one we usually see him in), watch it. It's kinda boring, but enlightening. Btw, Brand from the Goonies plays George W. Bush (Josh Brolin you're totally awesome.)



Wolverine:

I didn't really like this movie because I already knew what was going to happen because of my sister and my two friends. If I didn't know what was going to happen, I guess I would've liked it (this also happened with TDK, Watchmen, AND The Departed) But Sabretooth as Wolverine's brother? GENIUS!



Four Brothers:

The tagline might be a little cheesy, but this movie is AMAZING! I love Garrett Hedlund in this movie (he's the other white guy). He was the best actor, I think, in my opinion. He was cute, and actually talented. The others were good too ("Uh oh! It's the popo! Those white cops are crazy!). This movie is heartfelt, with some humor AND drama, action packed, and with a mystery for you to attempt to solve throughout the movie. WATCH IT!



Parenthood:

I haven't seen this movie in a while, but I watched it this morning. I love Keanu Reeves. But the movie is a great dramedy, and I did not know that adolescent boy was Joaquin Phoenix. Shocking. He had weird hair. But that's not important. It's realistic and beautiful. Watch it (I think several of people I know, maybe a reader of my blog, have already seen it - after all, it's an eighties movie) !

~~~~~~~~~

I wanna see these movies:





The Expendables





Zombieland





Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief





Inglorius Basterds





Tron Legacy (also with Garrett Hedlund... apparently he plays the son of the guy from the first movie or a relative or something, since they both have the same last name... I should probably watch the first Tron movie again...)





New York, I Love You

And

Iron Man 2

I listened to this song while typing this blog post



Jay Z feat. Alicia Keys:

"Empire State of Mind"
