Inception (!!!!!)

(Above: Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Arthur: the Point Man...what ever that means)

Random New Favorite Quote: "You musn't be afrain to dream a little bigger, darling." -Eames, in 'Inception'


A few days ago, I went to go see the movie 'Inception'. It was *so flippin' awesome!* The movie was great: the plot was awesome (confusing, but not nonsense-y), and it just had that aura of intrigue that pulls you right in. Now, I'm not a movie critic, and I hate it when people shatter the perfect illusion of your favorite movie *cough cough* (you know who you are!) so, I'm not going to go into detail about what flaws it had (I couldn't find any, just so you know).
That is now my favorite movie. Which is big, because since december, Guy Ritchie's 'Sherlock Holmes' with Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law. Both wonderful actors that played a great duo in my opinion. But now 'Inception' is No. 1 (in the Box Office too I think), with Leo DiCaprio and Joseph Gordon-Levitt. (A/N: I do not like slash! It bugs the crap outta me, don't judge...-_-)

Today!!!!

Today I'm soooo excited because it's my friend's b-day celebration!!!! AAAGH! A lot of our 'group' will be there so I get to see them too! We're having a night beach party thing. (PARTY TIME! for those of you who get it...)
Plus I'm so proud of myself for working a new character into my stori!!! I had it alllll planned out, but at the last minute, I decided to add a character's best friend, who will eventually have a bigger part. I plan on telling parts of the whole stori from different POVs (not 'Power of Veto', like on Big Brother, Point of View smart one)
I would tell you about the story, but it's a little too complicated for me to type out in a number of paragraphs. I have a strange way of organizing....
Anyway, *rolls eyes* I've already somewhat composed a movie cast-assuming when I publish it, it will become a movie (hoping!). So I've cast my friend Ellie for the main character, though she'll be playing two parts because the main character is...well, nevermind it's too hard to explain, my other friend Freckles for the main character's bestie, Jeremy Shada for the CIA agent turned good, and Xavier Samuel as the poor brother who gets killed off by the evil domineering government.

I Forgot How Awesome These Things Were...

I'm currently watching Wolverine and the X-Men, which will be proceeded by Avatar: The Last Airbender, and was after Iron Man: Armored Adventures. I haven't seen these shows in soooooo long, I've forgotten how wickedly awesome they are! I've always loved the X-Men! It just sounds so cool to have super powers and get the bad guys! Plus, in the movies Hugh Jackman plays Wolverine/Logan! And Avatar, well, whoever doesn't think that's awesome is just plain odd (no offense Swoosh)! I like Avatar for the same reason I like the X-Men, and Iron Man.
Me and my friend Ellie are total nerds for Iron Man!!! XD We love the movies, TV shows, and books! But we have yet to read the comics; seeing as there's about a gazillion of them. Which means we're so psyched for Comic-Con this week! *squeal!*
Originally, we were going to dress up as our fave characters, but then my mom said that if we're not dressed as the Princess Leia fantasy outfit, we're going to die of heat stroke. (A/N: I do NOT like Star Wars, its totally pointless and absurd, I like Star Trek)
So yeah, that pretty much explains the pics above.

Boredom

*sigh* I don't know what to post about...maybe I'll come back to edit this later...So, here's some funny things I found...Take the time to read them ALLL! You'll laugh your head off! XD

Ranting about annoying People

I know I've already posted today, but I was just thinking about my last year at middle school. I was remembering awful people, who betrayed my friends and me, and another one who's just plain mean and stuck up. We'll call the first ones, Tiffany/Alondra and Sasha. "Tiffany" said smack to my bestie who we'll call Ellie, and who told Ellie's crush she liked him. That pretty much ruined Ellie's life after school. "Alondra" was a beach to my other bestie Rae's crush. The two got together, broke up, then got together again, and broke up! What a whore! And she went to France and bragged about it. No one messes with my friends, then brags about Paris. The only thing that saved her pretty little face from being rearranged one day was my stupid conscience. And moral code.
And "Sasha" stereotyped me. I wear black pretty often, which is 'normal' for girls. However, I don't cut myself, or have an emo haircut. She called me goth/emo! What the hell? I seriously hated her after that. "Sasha" was already annoying before that, but this pushed me over the edge. *rolls eyes* Good riddance to them!

Another thing, I feel like I need to vent/rant. I've been out of school for a while now, but I still feel like said people were here just yesterday. They really ruined my last year with one of my besties who is now in Germany.
And I just found out that I have to ride on a goddamn bus (a BUS! I hate buses, they're like all claustrophobic and hot, and awful with random people!) to Mexico, do a bike ride, then ride back on a bus! I don't even like cycling, and to make it a little less pleasant, I found this out. But, I'm only doing this race because last April, I struck up a deal with my dad: he said that if I do this ride with him, we get to go to Paris next summer! I keep telling myself to keep my eyes on the prize, but I can't with the notion of riding on a bus. Public transportation (aside from trains, planes, and cabs) absolutely revolts me.
It must be a past life thing, because I also hate/am afraid of butterflies for no apparent reason. Buses, I hate as much as butterflies. One-the past life thing, and two-I was so claustrophobic on a field trip sitting inbetween random people I nearly had a nervous breakdown (no joke, I was hyperventilating a little bit). Even though I know I'll be with my dad and uncle, that still doesn't comfort me. My dad's fine, but my uncle is always razzing me about stuff like this. Plus, he talks...a LOT. I know I won't want to talk, especially because I won't have a chance to shower after a freaking 50 mile bike ride.

So to sum up: I hate people, I don't like buses, and I'm pissed cause I have to ride on a bus for hours, do a 50 mile bike ride, ride back on a bus for hours, and not shower after the bike ride. I have issues I know...=_=

I Can't Think of a Title Other Than This One

Okay, I know that lately, I've been posting a LOT about Xavier Samuel (not that there's anything wrong with that), and you're all rolling your eyes at me. But, I just have to share this with everyone. And who hates Australian people anyway? Especially good looking actors...^-^ Anyway, to the point: Xavier was in this movie called The Loved Ones last year. It was at the Sydney Film Festival, I think and won a lot of those types of awards. The Loved Ones is about this guy, Brent, who accidentally kills his father in a freak car accident and he is constantly racked with guilt. He has a shot at happiness wiht his girlfriend Holly, who he intends to go to prom with. That is, until Lola asks him and he turns her down. Lola and her father kidnap Brent out of revenge and he becomes the center of a series of macabre event invvolving disco balls, syrringes, pink satin and power drills. Check out the trailer on YouTube of course. (I would link directly to the vid, but I was having technical difficulties earlier...)

The Gentle Barn

I was watching The Ellen Degeneres Show today, and she showed a clip of Portia (her wife) visiting a 'rehab' barn for abused farm animals. It's called The Gentle Barn, and, well, I just explained what it does. It's a non-profit organization founded in 1999 and is home to over 120 abused and recovering animals. How can people be so cruel????? Why, why, why, why, WHY!????!!! Stupid mental disorders....*grumble grumble grumble* You can donate money to them at their website here.

A Charming Notion...(no sarcasm intended)

I was visiting my favorite blog a few weeks ago, when the blogger linked to her other blog, for her other book. That other blog had a link to a website having to do with reincarnation. Now, I don't believe in a lot of things (coincidences, celeb romours, racism, etc.) but reincarnation and many others (aliens, Nessie--the Loch Ness monster--, government conspiracy, ghosts, many things other people beleive are myths) are the ones I do believe in.
I took a questionairre and figured out that I have lived before; most likely many times before. So I downloaded their brochure a promised myself I'd visit them when I go to New York.
The website is called The Ouroboros Society. An Ouroboros is a snake that's eating its own tail, mostly in rings, necklaces, anceint drawings.
You should go check it out. I'll post a link here.
Or it's all in my head, due to my overactive imagination, or psychosis. As E.L. Doctorow said: 'Writing is a socially acceptable form of schizophrenia.' A quote to live by in my world.

A Random Thought...

Earlier today I had a random thought (hence the title of this post XP). Now, everyone knows how good looking Logan Lerman (Percy Jackson in PJO) is, and how amazingly handsome Xavier Samuel (Riley Biers in Eclipse) is. But which one is better looking? That's why this post is in correspondance with this week's poll. And I'm putting pictures so you can be the judge. ^_^
