Have you ever seen a movie that is so funny it makes you cry-laughing? Or how about a movie that is so genius, so strange and out there, and so freaking good you just can't believe it exists? If you're nodding your head "yes" (and I know you are), then you know what I mean when I say that "Napoleon Dynamite" was "IT" for me. From start to finish, I was cry-laughing, confused, entertained, and enjoying every minute of it. I can't say that for a lot of movies these days (except "Wicker Park," which could have been a horrible movie, and maybe to some it is, but I wouldn't care just because Josh Hartnett is in it). While I did not find the answers to a lot of life's big mysteries, or unlock the key to ending world hunger, war, and disease, I did find a wonderful film that I will eventually own, love, and cherish for hopefully a long time to come. In the grand scheme of this thing called life, that is all I need to be happy... And "Wicker Park" on dvd. And Josh Hartnett. And a big, Victorian house, shiny Lexus SUV, and a bunch of rediculously over-priced clothes with my name on it.
On second thought... go see the movie people. I promise you will not be dissapointed. O.k., so it's very strange and nonesensical at times, but that's what makes it so funny and original. You just have to see it for yourself. My raving simply is not enough to portray just how wonderful it is.
In other news, in a few weeks I'm performing in a show for a friend of mine-- she's helping her roomate out with a new clothing/accessory line she started, and they're having a semi-fashion show five weeks from now (although, I should mention that none of us are getting paid for it. We're doing it out of the kindness of our hearts). I volunteered for the role of "rocker ballerina," and will be dancing to Billy Idol's "Cradle of Love." The best part is not so much the dancing (which will not be very fun at all, as I have to re-learn Pointe in a month!), but the costume-- a black and hot-pink tutu, black fishnet tights, hot-pink Pointe shoes and ribbon laced up my leg, in addition to full-out rocker faux bangs (you know, the ones that have become trendy as of late), dark and dramatic make-up-- Shoot, I'm going to be one HOT ballerina. If all goes as planned.
Well my weekly subscribers, I hope this entry suffices considering I haven't written one in over a week. Did you miss me?....
I'd prefer if you didn't answer this last question. Take care and have a KICK ASS weekend!!!
