P.S. I Love You

Apparently all I do is watch movies because I saw P.S. I Love You tonight. And I almost hated it. First of all, I think Hilary Swank looks like a man and is extremely unattractive. Second of all, I did not need to see Denny's (Grey's Anatomy) naked rear end. Third, it was way too sad. Every time I would finally stop crying, something else that was extremely sad would happen and I would start crying all over again. Maybe I'm just a little too sensitive about death, but I don't think that movies should be made where the moviegoer cries the whole time. Unless it is a documentary about dying kids in Africa or something. That would be an exception. I just wanted to stop crying so I was begging for the movie to end. I didn't even care how it ended, which is rare for me because I am usually very picky about the way a movie ends.

I guess the movie had some good elements, like some pretty shots of Ireland and some hot Irish accents. And pretty shoes. But other than that, I think it was a dud. Maybe the next movie I see will be a winner.

Fool's Gold

Fool's Gold. Yeah, I was a little disappointed. I love, I mean LOVE Matthew and Kate, so of course I really wanted this one to be good. I just think it could have been put together so much better. Sure there were some funny parts and Matthew was shirtless most of the movie, but the plot was just OK. Not one I will be purchasing most likely. I don't know, maybe it will be better a second time.

Takin' It To The Streets

So just saw Step Up 2 The Streets. Some of the worst acting I have seen, but the dancing is quite entertaining. And the music was off da hook. If it weren't for the 4 other people in the theater, I'm pretty sure I would've busted a move. Now I'm off to download some songs from the soundtrack.

shortie had them apple bottom jeans (jeans)

boots with the fur (with the fur)
the whole club was lookin at her

she hit the floor
(she hit the floor)

next thing you know
shorty got low, low, low, low, low, low, low, low

them baggy sweat pants
and the Reebok's with the straps (with the straps)
she turn around and gave that big booty a smack(heyyy)

You know you want to sing along!

Rainy Days and Mondays Always Get Me Down

Thank goodness for friends that make you do things you don't want to do. I know I am a wimp, and I have no problem admitting it. I finally did something today that I have needed to do for awhile, but have been too chicken to do. I don't know if the situation will actually get better, but I know I feel better just taking some action. Pretty good for a rainy Monday. But hey, I will take rain over snow any day!

On an unrelated note, why is it that I can spend 2 minutes on the BYU campus and always see at least one person I know. I know I wasn't that social when I actually went there.

Reflections

What an incredible gift life is. It is a shame that we don't really think about how great it is until someone we know passes away.

I have also been thinking a lot about how important personal reflection is. Sometimes I feel like I don't let myself think because I am afraid of what the outcome will be. I drive myself crazy with indecision and insecurities. But I have challenged myself to take 15 minutes a day to remove myself from all distractions and just think. I want to challenge all of you to do the same.

Happy Valentine's Day!

I feel sorry for those people who are so bitter toward today. I don't care if I may be eternally single, it's still a fun holiday. Maybe it's because I heart the color pink so much. I usually have a party, but I will be babysitting this evening. Which I think is better than spending the evening with a boy because I care about my nieces more than I would about any boy that I went out with. I'm not going to pretend that I wouldn't love someone to send me flowers or chocolates. Flowers are always nice. But I'm not one of those girls who is going to get all depressed about it. I just think it is dumb.

Anyway, I send lots of hugs and kisses to all of you! Do something nice for someone!

I Heart the Wind

It's pretty sad when you think 50 degrees is warm, but today felt great! I wish I could ride with the windows down everyday. As I was riding back from lunch with a friend today, I was thinking about how the wind makes every song sound better to me. I absolutely love to sit with my eyes closed, feeling the wind whipping around me and listening to music. It doesn't matter what the song is, I love it!
