Happy Holidays!

So it's Christmas Eve and I probably should be watching 'It's A Wonderful Life' for the millionth time with my parents, but you know what they say! Traditions are meant to be broken. Especially if they involve irritating and repetitve movies.


Yesterday I watched the best tragic love story movie ever. No, I am not exaggerating. I'm not usually convinced by tragic love stories like The Titanic or even Romeo and Juliet, but at the end of this movie I was sobbing. It might be the most cute, charming, sad, and tragic love story movie out there. It's called Love Story (original, I know) and it came out in 1970. To be honest, I wasn't very enthusiastic when I popped it into the DVD player, but it was AMAZING. Ryan O'Neal (who looks super yummy in the movie) and Ali MacGraw have done a really good job and I hope everyone loves it as much as I do.

I love Erika Grinde.
Erika: "I wouldn't want one [a country accent], that brings your IQ down by how many points?"
Erika: "And all the black people were like daang! what happened girl?"
Erika (while referring to Reese Witherspoon): "I have her chin."

I think I might have died if we didn't have winter break this week. Thank God.


All this snow that we're getting is starting to worry me. We've already had two major snowstorms within a matter of three weeks and we just got another 2 inches today. When the snow melts in the spring, we are going to have some major flooding.

I have never liked Scarlett Johansson. She's always bothered me and like always, my vibes didn't fail me. She's the one who broke Ryan Reynolds' heart, not vice versa! (This is the part where I'm thinking 'I told you so'. )

Okay so there's no playlist this week, simply because I was too lazy and have been listening to the Alvin and the Chipmunks Christmas CD. Don't make fun of me, the songs are cute! However, I am thinking about posting a music video everytime I don't have a playlist. Credit goes to Amy Leininger for showing me this, I absolutely love it.


On Monday night, I was passing our bathroom and I heard my sister singing (Yes, she does sing in the shower. She's ten years old, give her a break) probably the best Christmas song  I've heard in a while. It was actually so funny that I later asked her to sing an encore for me! However, what was even funnier was her asking me to post the song on my blog so that she would maybe get famous. So here I am, writing out my sister's Christmas song. Enjoy!

 
Deck the halls with poison ivy
Fa la la la la, la la la la
'Tis the season to be naughty
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Break a window, pop a tire
Fa la la, la la la, la la la
Set the Christmas tree on fire
Fa la la la la, la la la la

Happy Holidays everyone! :)

Questions, questions

I love Jake Gyllenhaal. So much.

So apparently uptown is the new place to shop?
I have never been to uptown but now I'm tempted.

How do you know if you're friends with a guy? Probably the question of the week for me.

I'm excited!! Wayzata's having a Sadie-Hawkins Dance!! I don't know why I'm excited considering that I don't know who I'd ask but I still am!

I just saw Percy Jackson this week and even though the acting was pretty bad, I still want the next movie to come out soon! On a somewhat related note, it's awkward when your little sister is all of a sudden using words like "hott" and "yum" when describing male actors. My sister is apparently in love with the actor who plays Percy in Percy Jackson and thinks his "muscles" are "extremely good looking." Why can't I stop laughing?

It seems like these last two weeks have left many people severely injured.
Shout out to Mara Dougherty and Abby Jones, hope you guys heal fast!

So not only do I not have any type of radar besides one that senses vibes,
I am also pretty gullible.
Suprising?

Wow what a rough week for celebrities! Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens broke up && Ryan Reynolds and Scarlett Johansson got a divorce.

On to the playlist...

Cooler Than Me (Mike Posner)
Fallin' (Asher Roth)
Good Life (One Republic)
MOMENTUM (The Hush Sound)
be by myself (Asher Roth)
Lisztomania (Pheonix)
Creator (Santigold vs. Switch and FreQ Nasty)
PAST MY SHADES (B.o.B feat. Lupe Fiasco)
Radio (Beyonce)
Fold Your Hands Child (Cobra Starship)
Geek In The Pink (Jason Mraz)


CYAA :)

Soup of Goodness anyone?

I LOVE SWEET CORN SOUP.
It just might be the best soup in the whole world. For Thanksgiving, me and the fam went to Chicago because a whole bunch of our family friends got together. The FEAST included mock turkey (because we're vegetarians), mashed potatoes, some cauliflower type thing, sweet corn soup, and pumpkin pie. OH MY GOD. The minute i tasted the sweet corn soup, a little fiesta took place in my mouth. The first thing i thought was "what a soup of goodness!"

This might've been the first Black Friday that I didn't leap out of my bed and try to get to the mall as fast as possible. I was very surprised with myself.

I am officially 3 episodes behind on glee. I desperately need to catch up. So far I haven't seen Puck come back, Gwyneth Paltrow (whom I absolutely adore) sing, and the apparently super sad episode of this week.

I officially love Fiber One bars thanks to Shreya Ramanujan.

Finally finished Havana Nights. WHAT A GREAT MOVIE.
Javier and Katie are one of the cutest couples!
Plus, Javier is super attractive. no complaints there.



I don't have a gaydar.
According to urban dictionary, a gaydar is "the ability/gift of being able to detect homosexuality in other people."
I don't have this gift. Apparently Elton John, Enrique Iglesias, and Tom Cruise are gay.
How the heck did I not know this??? I feel sequestered.

I watched Prince of Persia last night. I think I'm in love with Jake Gyllenhall. Just sayin'.

I think snow looks and feels better in the morning. There's something about waking up to snow. Winter wonderland is the first thing that comes to mind. When I'm walking home from my bus stop after school, I'm definitely not thinking the same thing. It's more along the lines of "why is my house so far from the bus stop?"

Dear Amy, Rosalie, and Meaghan,

Can I please crash the next prank call party?
I promise not to laugh hysterically!

Lemme know if it's cool!
Aditi

Harry Potter, Star Wars, and Other Things

AHHHH!!!!!
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 came out!!!! Though I did not get to go to the premiere (stupid I know, I have block 1 Euro to thank for that), I am already in love with it. I won't get to go see it until the week after Thanksgiving but STILL! That's only a week and half away! Second most exciting movie release of my life, the first being Iron Man 2.

Oh my gosh. During the past week, I have probably heard the most Star Wars references ever. I never realized how important Star Wars was. I now feel compelled to watch these movies.

I am in love with Spanish music. My favorite part of spanish class is la cancion. I have bought all of the songs we have listened to in class excluding like two that I didn't like. I feel accomplished.

Ke$ha's new song We R Who We R.


The song is okay, she has made better songs.
It bothers me how she feels the need to make 'are' into R. Text talk annoys me.
The most irritating text term is nd. Apparently this is short for 'and'.
Congratulations, a whole letter was eliminated.
 I'm not saying that I don't shorten words, I do! I frequently use ik and deets. I just think that some things are
ridiculous.

the playlist!!

I decided to call this playlist Granola Bar because granola bars are quite deceiving.They look like they would be plain and HEALTHY but they actually contain delicious flavor (not to say that healthy things are not flavorful, I love Clif Bars and Great Grains Cereal.)These songs are, in a way, similar.

My Love (The Bird & The Bee)
Tired (Adele)

Good Ol' Fashion Nightmare (Matt & Kim)
