The Time Traveler's Wife

I'm not a critic I just felt like writing a review, okay?

Friday night Jane and I went to go see The Time Traveler's Wife and I was practically peeing my pants with excitement! I loved the book so much. The movie not so much. I didn't hate it, but I didn't love it. I just only liked it.

I felt like they rushed the movie. They went from just meeting in the library, to being married, to trying to have a baby, to dying. There was nothing in between to suggest that they actually loved each other.

I also didn't really like Rachel McAdams. I really think she needs to stop making these movies and try something new. Long live Regina George, bitches! But that's besides the point. I didn't think there was a lot of chemistry between her and Eric Bana. I swear he had more of a flow with the little kids who play young Clare and his daughter.

Speaking of which, I really wish they had added a couple more scene's of Henry with young Clare. Those were always my favorite parts in the book!

That's all folks!

P.S. I hate the movie poster! It's making me dizzy!

Ignorance

I always feel the need to brush my teeth and take a shower before I blog. I don't know why. Maybe I feel like my non-readers can tell I have been sitting in my own filth all day watching episode's of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. My bottle of water now taste like mouthwash. Yuck.

Anywho, on Friday I went out with my Jane to celebrate her 20th birthday. We tried to go to Dave & Buster's, but apparently you have to be old to get in there. Wackness. So, we ended up eating dinner at Applebee's which I guess is a good thing, because I'm broke. Haha. Afterwards we went to Chelsea Pier's to go bowling and I'm still not completely sure of how the scoring for that game works. At least my ball was pink.

When we were done bowling I met up with my friend Merima. She's my clubbing buddy and we met at this place called Kiss & Fly. We usually don't have trouble sneaking into places, but for some reason we decided not to give it a go this time. We should have though, because we were on the guest list, and the bouncer looked just like Marcus Schenkenberg haha!

So, we decided to go to Webster Hall and see what all the fuss was about. We freakin' hated it! The place itself was okay. I liked the music and the lights, but I just could not deal with the people in there. First of all they charge you $25 just to get in. (!!) The place was packed with a bunch of kids who think it's okay to grab you and not let go. I seriously had to yell at this one kid with fake Ray-Ban's who thought he was Jay-Z to STOP FUCKIN' TOUCHING ME.

I don't know about anybody else, but I certainly don't appreciate someone grabbing my breasts as I am trying to leave. So yeah probably never going back there again. I did have fun though, because I went with Merima, and just walking down the street with her is a riot.

Things Left Unsaid

A couple weeks ago I wrote an entry about how I had to come to terms with the fact that my friendship with someone isn't what it used to be. Those feelings weren't actually expressed to that person, because... Damnit he was ignoring me. We got into an argument and he was ignoring me, because his "pride level is up there and I didn't wanna talk to you until I felt ready and my temporary grudge was gone." Fair enough. Silly to me, but I'll let him have it.

Anyway that's not what this is really about. I got a package in the mail from him today. My belated birthday present. Earlier I had gotten a text from him asking if I got the package and a simple sorry. Listen, I'm a girl, I need to talk about my feelings okay? So, I couldn't just say thank you. I had to let him know exactly how I felt about the situation and he did the same.

After we got that out of the way I proceeded to tell him that our friendship isn't what it once was. I said that I was tired of being in these friendship where I was putting in more than I was getting. We just aren't best friends anymore. He said we grew apart and things haven't been the same. He also said "the only reason why I chilled with you those times was because I knew that you are a good friend and you would never fuck me over..." It really hurt when he said that, because he made it sound like hanging out with me was an obligation. But I can't be mad at him for being honest.

I really thought I had come to terms with this weeks ago, but hearing confirmation from him is like a fresh wound all over again. It feels like a break up. I guess it sort of is.

Lift Me Up

When I said I wasn't feeling like myself you came and got me. Thank you.

Anywho, I finally went to go see Bruno yesterday with Jane. I loved it! It was so gross and funny and I love every second of it. I actually thought Borat was grosser.

Alright Imma peace out now. Gonna try and finish my book today.
