anam cara

i'm relaxed

mmm... cherry coke :D

oh and a Happy 4th to peoples!

i had another weird dream last night (that i actually remember). in my dream i was flipping through a magazine when i saw a picture of Drake and Josh on a tennis court or something. Josh threw a football and it hit Drake by accident. then he asked if they could practice their dancing. all of a sudden they are performing some kind of tribal skit where Drake 'kills' Josh with a spear and then it cuts to them salsa dancing. i'd wonder what it all means, but i'm not sure i want to know- it was entertaining if nothing else :D

so yesterday i finally got to see Superman Returns with my brother. my sister saw Click (first movie she's seen by herself). i have to say that i enjoyed it. i've heard a few people saying that they didn't really care for it but i had fun. i wasn't really expecting anything other than to be entertained and i was. it was also a very pretty movie. and Kevin Spacey as Lex Luthor made me very happy XD

after the movies, we went into the mall where i bought a Ghostbusters sweatshirt at Hot Topic for less than $10. it was originally about $40, but it was half-off and then everything was on clearance so it was half-off again. i couldn't resist. however i didn't get the V for Vendetta shirt i wanted because it was $20- for one shirt. i couldn't do it. (the movie comes out August 1st!) my sister bought 4th of July earrings at Claire's and ice cream- cake batter ice cream with chocolate cookie dough mixed in. i had one bite and that was all i could eat.

last night i finally got to see The Producers. i loved it- so funny! i <3 mel brooks. it was weird seeing Captain Jack Harkness with bleached blonde hair though o_0 but Jai from Queer Eye looked pretty :D

later today i'll be going over to the neighbors' house but hopefully not for too long. i'm not a very social person and i only really have bad memories of the 4th of July. however, seeing evil!Spock with a goatee did make me feel a little better ;) especially since my right hand hurts (in between the ring finger and little finger) from when i fell on my ass the other day with my finger in the fridge door.

tomorrow i should be heading home so yay! for my bed, but nay! for slow internet connection.

EDIT: i forgot to mention that the Space Shuttle Discovery had a successful launch from the Kennedy Space Center this morning =D

i feel CRAZY but in a good way

first of all, i'm debating whether or not i should add these icons to my collection... maybe i should go for the sponsored account.

i'm tired. and my back is getting sore. my dad had to take my good chair with him yesterday because it wouldn't have fit in my mom's car so now i get the horrible chair that comes with the room :/ it's only for a week but still.

yesterday, my dad took a bunch of my dorm stuff to the cabin and then i copied notes for my Genome class until i went over my friend's apartment at about 5:30 pm. we went to the barn theater to see the Buffy Musical but we just barely got in. i didn't know it would be so popular. when we got there, there were practically no seats available. we found seats near each other but there was a pole in our way so she sat on the floor in front of me. it was pretty good actually. some lines were forgotten and i couldn't hear one of the singers, but still i had fun. Spike was played by a woman though. that definitely made the ending of the show interesting ;) and the guy i had a crush on last year was in the show. he played my favorite character too- Xander ^_^ he and the girl playing Anya were right in front of us and he was shirtless with his ass in my friend's face XD she said she had to keep herself from grabbing him. i had fun. then we went back to her place and watched movies on TV (The Rundown, Highlander, She's All That) with her roommates until 1 AM-ish. i didn't feel like taking the bus that late/early and i'm all the way on the other side of campus, so i slept in the front room. unfortunately they only have a two-seater couch, so i wasn't the most comfortable i've ever been :) but i barely got any sleep anyway. i stayed up until 3-ish watching Stripes. i <3 Harold Ramis. while looking him up at IMDB right now, i saw Ghostbusters in Hell- 2008?

this morning i left her place at 8:30 in the morning and took the bus to my dorm which luckily got there just as i did. i ate and now i'm working on my American essay. i just have to keep reminding myself that once i'm done with this essay, no more of this class. just get through this and then you're free. tomorrow i'm going downtown for coffee and to study at Borders with Tiffany. i also have to pack some more today so i can vacuum later this week. i can't see the floor with all my crap everywhere ;)

tengo hambre but the dining hall doesn't open for dinner until 5 pm. i think i'll get some coffee then and just spend the rest of the day/night working on this paper. i want to finish it so i can just focus on studying.

i've lost track of the days already. i almost started freaking out because i thought it was Monday... tomorrow i'll probably think i'm missing class. oh! and i've got to wake up early tomorrow so i can catch the match between the US and the Czech Republic. i almost started crying today when, after Mexico beat Iran, they kept mentioning that the father of one of the players (Mexico) died recently. from SI.com- "Goalkeeper Oswaldo Sánchez, who rejoined the team Saturday night after the death of his father, helped Mexico win its opener." and so i don't forget the schedule: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/soccer/worldcup/2006/schedule/

and i'll leave you with the word of the day (as given to me by Google)- emolument: the wages or perquisites arising from office, employment, or labor.
