"christina, you have gained weight. i've noticed it."




i know it's the truth, but the lack of tact kills me sometimes.

Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2

Lena: "What's the problem?"
Tibby: "The problem is that I suck at relationships... I should've been a guy."
Lena: "I guy wouldn't worry about sucking at relationships."

Nowhere Boy

John: "Why couldn't God have made me Elvis?"
Julia: "Because he was saving you for John Lennon."

I saw the previews for this on the Easy A dvd.  Strange, I never watch the previews, but this caught my eye. It's the story of John Lennon's adolescence. I don't think it ever came out in theaters in the states, but I Netflix'd it. Here's what I thought: (keep in mind that I know absolutely nothing about John Lennon or the Beatles.)
I can honestly say that I enjoyed it. Specifically, I loved the dialogue. Very witty and sarcastic, and it had a very real aspect to it, with the family drama. Apparently, Lennon was raised by his aunt, and when he started spending time with his real mother, the two fought over his attention. It has some questionable content, such as language and sex.


side note: Aaron Johnson actually learned to play the guitar and sang for the movie. All the music is actually him playing.


ps, new germany post.

I finally figured out my problem...

According to Pride and Prejudice:
"To be fond of dancing is a certain step towards falling in love..."

I hate dancing.
Mystery solved, I'm bound forever to be a spinster.

For the win!

Quote of The Day.

"...maybe this happy ending doesn't include a wonderful guy. Maybe it's you, on your own, picking up the peices and starting over; freeing yourself up for something better in the future. Maybe the happy ending is just you, moving on...

...or maybe the happy ending is this: remembering through all the unreturned phone calls, broken hearts, through all the blunders and misread signals, through all the pain and embarrassment, you never ever gave up hope."

-Gigi; He's Just Not That Into You

Quote of the Day:

"The subtext of that text... BOOTAY."
-Carrie Bradshaw

It's all in the subtext - you gotta learn to read between the lines.

Here's the thing about friends.

Friends, they know your flaws. They know your hopes and dreams. They encourage you to be the best you can be. They make you laugh. They're a shoulder when you're crying. Friends are always there.

I have the greatest bestie in the world...

and here's one reason why...

these are two cards that I've gotten in the mail in the last month:

 "Aspire to be barbie... the bitch has everything."

-Anon

"I think, therefore I'm single."

(i know they're backwards... i was too lazy to change them.)

I'm so blessed to have the wonderful friends that I do. Thanks hslp, for being wonderful, and always being there. Only someone who really knew me would know understand just how perfect these cards are... Sending light and love through the lovely internet from sunny San Angelo!

Quote of the Day

I even found a gif from the show that goes with this exact quote.

"Rachel was a hot Jew and the good Lord wanted me to get in her pants."
--Puck

just some tuesday morning humor for you...

Quote of the day:
"I thought I smelled cookies wafting from the ovens of the little elves living in your hair."
-Sue to Mr. Schu

Sue Sylvester.

The villian we love to hate. Jane Lynch is a comedic genius. Profound, truly. Glee would be nothing without her, even though I wish she would die 80% of the time.

"This is what we call a total disaster. I'm going to have to ask you to smell your armpits...
....that's the smell of failure and it's stinking up my office."

"We're dealing with children, they need to be terrified. It's like mother's milk to them."

"All I want is just one day a year where I'm not visually assaulted by uglies and fatties. Seriously Ohio, these retinas need a day off."

"You've got enough product in your hair to grease a wok."
 
Happy Friday!
watch glee.

ps - I'm totally jealous of all thos track suits, I've never seen her repeat.

Quote of the day.

John: "Remember how you said your parents use you to get back at each other? "

Claire: [nods]

John: "Wouldn't I be outstanding in that capacity?"

Do I even have to tell you why I absolutely LOVE these two together?

Not the bet movie of all time, but it's definitely in the running.

FINALLY!

Mark David Manders sang, "I love my weekends, the holiday God made."

Amen to that brotha.

It's Friday, and I couldn't be more excited. Tamura finished Harry Potter yesterday, Praise the Shepard, so in honor of her I'm posting this little gem. Not her last night in Angelo, but her last weekend. Thinking about his night just makes me smile shakee my head cover my eyes in embarrassment laugh.

(please excuse the deranged smile on my face - there's a reason for it I assure you)

HAPPY FRIDAY ALL!!

And this is just for you Tamura.

smile.



Watts: "What do you think?"

Keith: "You look good wearing my future."

oh hey there.

totes adorbs.

"A Bieber in the hand is worth two Lacheys in the bush."

Rebecca; Greek

I finally watched the end of Greek. When I heard Rebecca say this, I knew it had to be posted. (Don't judge me.) Also, can we just talk about how I cried at the end... between the KT house gettting torn down and Casey and Cappie journeying off into the great blue yonder together, it was just too much. Perfect end to a great series... I'm sad to see all end though!

This is just one reason I love my brother so much.

"Save the drama for your momma. I don't care, I don't want any part of it, just shut [up]."

some people say....

"There's other fish in the sea."

I prefer, "there's plenty more sharks in the ocean."

some thoughts for the day.

A quote:

"My closest relationship is with my Blackberry.

...thank God it vibrates."

-Kara (Jessica Beil) in Valentine's Day

I empathize with this girl, daily. But especially on Valentine's Day.

One more wedding to go to tomorrow. Just call me the last single girl in West Texas.

A question:

Why is it that we call San Angelo west Texas, but we are still a good 6-8 hours EAST of the most western part of the state?

This will never make sense to me.

A confession:

Went to see "Never Say Never"

10% boring.

40% cute.

50% loved it.

...I took Taelye so I had an excuse to see it.
"I whip my hair back and forth, I whip my hair back and forth"

An idea:
These scrapbooks.
I'm going to start trying to collage more... and use mixed media. :)

Random woman: "Casanova, I left my window open, but you never came..."
Casanova (Heath Ledger): "Darling, there are so many windows and so little time."

....at least he's honest.
That's way more than most guys can say.
