From left to right: some random chic, Colin, Mitch, and Jake

The thing is, Lauren and I didn’t know too much about the movie aside from what we’ve seen in the trailers so we didn’t really have any questions for them. I wanted to talk to them.. but yeah, I didn’t know what to ask!

Even worse is that the QA session was for the 4.30 showing! So they pretty much left after the movie started. Sigh.

I gotta admit, it’s a good movie… even though it’s a high school movie. You could think of it as a real version of Dawson’s Creek (sans the gay dude). Definitely something I can relate to, and I think I would have loved it even better if I saw the movie while I was still in high school.

“Shall I wait by the grave / For my lost lover’s kiss? / Stop the bell! Stop the bell!! / I’ve no tears left to cry / Must I stay here in hell? / Lord above, let me die…”

Don’t you hate it when you’re having an amazing time with the love of your life only to find out that it’s a dream and that the love of your life is… well… just a dream? I swear it’s happened to me a couple times already. It’s like I’d wake up all of a sudden, realise it’s all a dream, then get depressed. Really annoying.

What also breaks my heart is that one scene fro La Môme (aka La Vie en Rose). It’s been on my mind these past couple of days and as you saw, Édith finds out that the love of her life, Marcel, has died in a plane crash on his way to see her. The way the scene plays out like a dream at first, you know, being all romantic and light. Then reality starts creeping when we see her friends, who all have this grim and almost ghost like appearances. OMG we know something is wrong and she starts realising it too and finally someone tells her about the plane crash… omg heaven have mercy.

::squeals like a girl:: I love Mylène! Puisque sans contrefaçon je suis un garçon. Ok yes the song is old but last Friday, out of nowhere, I started humming that song and I knew I had to YouTube her. You’re lucky I didn’t embed Kate Ryan’s Voyage Voyage song, which was also stuck on my mind that day.. hehe. “voyage voyage! plus loin que la nuit et le jour.. voyage!!” Bah, who am I kidding?!

I remember Dar telling me he couldn’t even get through half that video. Funny, that’s what I said about 2 girls 1 cup. Speaking of which, Lillian saw 2 girls 1 cup and didn’t even flinch! I even have the video to prove it, I’d upload it… but umm.. it’d be hella boring. No reaction whatsoever. Same thing goes for BME Pain Olympics. balls of steel!

Oh yeah, so last Sunday Lillian and I went to Joyce’s place to check out Rock Band. I started with drums and moved on to bass. One thing I noticed though after playing a song was that my eyes started burning. Am I so into the game that I forget to blink?! Sans contrefaçon.

(not me btw)

OH MAH FREAKIN’ GOD! A suspense movie that deals with math in spanish… and Alejo Sauras is in it! ::creams pants:: I wonder what it’s about…

It is the early 90s and 4 mathematicians are invited to some mansion to solve one of the greatest problems in mathematics or they end up crushed to death. they solve it, but the antagonist ends up killing them anyway and steals the proof.. and it turns out the mastermind is none other than Andrew Wiles!

JUST KIDDING!

I wish I could say “muy pronto voy a estar estudiando en España.” Actually, instead of studying there, I wonder if I can just move there find a job and stay there for a year or two. Seriously, wouldn’t that be awesome? It’ll be like L’Auberge Espagnole except I won’t be in school and I wouldn’t have to worry about catalan because I’ll be in Madrid. ::squeels like a girl::

Oh and how can I forget… no erasmus!

So what’s holding me back?! I can just leave tomorrow! All I have to do is…

1) Pack
2) Go to the airport and get a ticket to Spain
3) Arrive in Spain
4) Find out that I don’t have a visa and get sent back to the US

Shiet.

OK so I guess the whole spontaneous thing won’t work. A little planning will need to be put into this trip.

1) Go to the Spanish consulate and get a work visa
2) Buy a ticket to Spain
3) Pack
4) Arrive in Spain
5) Not be able to find a job because I’m not fluent in Spanish
6) Go broke

Shiet.

OK so maybe a short trip to Spain will do.

Now for those of you who’ve seen the movie or read the book… doesn’t Fudge remind you of el presidente Bush? think about it. ok enough politics.

Like always, what makes a good movie even more enjoyable are the movie goers, especially on opening day. I can’t tell you how many times people broke into applause throughout the movie.

One thing I have to mention though… seems like arriving 2 hours ahead of time was unnecessary. The movie wasn’t sold out and there were definitely enough seats for a group of 4 if you happen to arrive when the movie started. Me? I miss standing in line. It was great to hear a bunch of people say how excited they are to see this movie. It was also fun to see people dress up in their gryffindor robes and scarves. lol. Now if you didn’t get a chance to see Harry Potter on opening day well… you have 2 more chances. Have fun.

God now I’m wondering what time I should head to the theatre tomorrow. I bought the tickets at 8pm and the lines were already hella long for the midnight showing. You think 2 hours is more than enough time for tomorrow?
