So I have been doing nothing constructive to my future as of recent.
Just hanging out a lot and wasting my life away. At the same time, I’m pretty worried that As are less than a year away oh Lord. :-(
On your to-watch list, all of you:
Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows
Because it’s the best yet since HP1, (which was only great cuz the trio were cute beyond words and Dumbledore wasn’t a menopausal psycho bitxh yet.) no srsly, Daniel Radcliffe went past his angst to portray something good this time. Also, stunning scenery. If not, just watch for Dobby. He’s the only CGI character I have cried so much for.
Easy A
Easily the best chick flick along with Mean Girls. Emma Stone was of pure talent, along with the rest of the cast – just. watch. It’s really really good.
Tangled
Because it is the last Disney Princess movie to ever be produced. No wait – just get it on DVD.
Kokuhaku
ARE YOU KIDDING FRICKIN’ AWESOME AS ALWAYS MINDFUCKING JAPANESE PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER. No missing this.
The Other Guys
The trailer was LOL so maybe.
I HAVE ALSO BEEN DOING LOTS OF READING.
BECAUSE OF THIS:
You’re supposed to bold the ones you’ve read and italicize the ones you’ve read parts/excerpts of. Most people have read at least an average of six by middle age or something. It also made me feel really inferior cause I haven’t heard of a full quarter and have read less than half on the list.

In repentance, I picked up The Time-traveler’s Wife and The Alchemist so as to (however minutely) improve my literary scope. After that I will prolly give in to guilty indulgence and eat up some chick lit.
So as you can see, I’m going nowhere on the academic scale neither am I pimpin’ my portfolio like the rest of the J1 world is. All I’m doing is.. idk. Reading and Lookbooking and Watching Movies and being an obnoxiously carefree teen.
Now to watch Big Bang Theory and then 3 Sisters later (which I got scammed into offering 20 bux for. No srsly, 20 bux and NO TRANSPORT? Angst.)
Alright laterzx.
