The day to be thankful!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Hope everyone has a fun-filled day and get to spend time with those they care about.... eat some good food, rather its Turkey, Ham, or Popeye's [yes, I'm eating chicken today... since we're in the process of moving and have to sale our stove, there not point in my mom making a HUGE dinner, especially sine my brother and his family won't be coming out here... so yea.] Besides its not about WHAT you eat on today, its about who you spend the day with and you realize how grateful to have whatever you have!
Don't let this become your family gathering... everyone turns on the tall person.. haha jk.. but this lil pic is hilarious. I've seen it numerous and it still cracks me up!

MoVING!!!!
So its a long weekend and i would usually be lazy and sleep in, but i have so much going on its not even funnie! (1) i have a freaking 10 page paper due TUESDAY and i have not started... don't want to do another 10-pager in one day... it nearly killed me! (2) I'm MOVING!!! YAY! [this will knock off another thing on my 101 list] and (3) i just started a seasonal job at Macy's... YAY again. As crazy as it seems I've always wanted a job in retail, i guess to see what its like. Like I know what its like to work w/ the public, and deal with customers..I've done in with 2 previous jobs. but neither was a hugely popular department store [although each on their own are hugely popular in their on market/category]. So i look forward to jumping back into the "customer service" field.. even if its only for a few weeks.
Moving.... can we say STRESSFUL?! OMG i never realized i collected sooo much junk. but after 8 years in the same place and having to start over as far as furniture, clothes, etc... we haven't done too bad. by no means are we like the people on Hoarders.... Lord no, we're not that bad... but i will admit i'm a bit of a pack-rat that doesnt want to throw away my middle school pep squad uniform... lol... if i could find the pictures i'd be fine with letting the uniform go... but not until i find the pics. lol... so yea, this is going to be a long eventful/stressful weekend.

New Moon
So by now everyone that reads my page should know that I'm in love with the Twilight Saga! It's inspired me to become more of a reader, because prior to discovering these books, my monthly readings came from Glamour and Seventeen magazines! sad i know... and i hope that doesn't make me seem shallow cause Lord knows I'm not! ahhh no way. But like the rest of the world, I anxiously awaited the release of New Moon. and I swear Nov. 19 was the longest day of my life... only had 4 hours of sleep.. then was at school from 8am to 8:45 pm!!! got zero sleep because by the time i got home [thanks to the flipping Metro] it was nearly 11pm. and i had not time for a nap =(
But, My mom, 2 friends and I went to the 12:20am showing.... the showing started LATE.. i swear it like after 12:30am and i was panicing! George Lopez... yes funny man George Lopez, opened the show for us though. He stopped by said a few words, asked who was Team Edward or Team Jacob[<-- that would be me], made a few joke, said that Taylor Lautner[the hott underaged kid that plays Jacob] will be on his show [airs night- 11.26.09] and then he left... and patted my friend on the arm and said "dont fall asleep" hahha too bad i didnt have my camera =/ cause we were like 3 rows from the front... BUT back to the movie
It was AMAZING! the coloring was vibrant, alive looking, the film kept to the book...for the most part. some scenes could've been longer to place more emphasis on certain parts of the storyline.... some parts were cut!... parts that fans have seen in either photos or the trailers, but i guess its too late to complain.. hope its in the DvD extras though. many of the characters and important events from the book were portrayed even better than i had imagined. I will admit there were times when i forgot it was based on a book, and i forgot that i already knew what was going to happen and started hoping for other things to happen.. hahaha. All-in-all, check out the movie. It's by no means a movie for 12-year old. that seems to be the phase non-new moon viewers are saying... So not true. But i would suggest you watch Twilight first so you're not too confused.
Part 3.... i think I'll have to start counting down soon, or maybe I'll wait until graduation so it'll only be a month left for me to count from.

i'm still alive
ahhh I feel bad I hardly update either of my blogs. School, as usual, has gotten hectic, it's almost the holidays and I'm in the process of moving. After 8 years in one house, moving becomes a very overwhelming and stressful. But either way I am really excited!
*******
Another random update--> New Moon came out last week. Who saw it?!?!? I DID! I DID!!! haha. Yea I actually saw it twice, the only other time I saw the same movie twice in theaters was Alpha Dog in 2007. But non-the-less, New Moon was an amazing movie. Sadly with all the darn trailers and behind the scenes footage that was released, it took away some of the movie's suspense for me. I loved the movie, don't get me wrong, but had Summit only released like 2 trailers, the whole movie would have been better.
*******
Also, I will be updating my 101 list soon, so be on the look out for that.

Good upcoming movies!!
so was watching the E! network Kardashian Wedding special and heard a commerical for a movie called Brothers with Jake Gyllenhaal nad Tobey Maguire... decided to check out the trailor online becasue of those guys are pretty good actors, so the 2 of them in one movie seemed interesting. Sure enough the trailor was really good. Im not super big on war-related movies, but this one mostly focuses on the family that is being left behind. from the few minutes i saw, i loved it!! check it out below!
after watching the above trailor i saw the trailor for Why did I Get Married too? which is the sequel for Tyler Perry's movie Why Did I Get Married? The sequel looks just as intense as the first one which i liked a lot. but it doesnt come out until April!! sooo long from now.. but i'm sure its worth the wait!
