i watch too many films

okay. firstly, i promise to stop using this place as like, a shrine to The Best Friend.
today, i popped a thank you card through my grandparents front door as they gave me some money for passing my exams. (although i hate walking to my grandparents house, they live on a not-very-nice estate and i always get leered and shouted at by some unemployed, uneducated boys. ugh. just because i wear dresses does not give you the excuse to comment on my legs or ass. thankyouverymuch)
and then i went to watch The Time Travellers Wife with my parents. oh my gosh. it was so sad. i don't cry at films, because it's just like a rule of principle, or something else that sounds smart. but i just don't. i won't let my parents see my cry and that's just the way i am. however, i had to fight some serious tears in that film. poor Eric Bana.

and i'm probably going to see 500 Days of Summer with the work friends on friday. i think zooey deschanel is one of my favourite actresses, she's like effortlessly amazing.
and the Hannah Montana Movie is out on dvd on monday! i am so hyped. too hyped. way too excited over that fact. while everyone else is walking into their school or college i am going to be buying that film and watching it over and over and over. and learning the hoedown throwdown properly.
while i'm on the subject of films, i went to see Bandslam on thursday. and it was really really good. i was really surprised. and i even totally fell in love with the incredibly geeky character Will Burton. he knew his music. since thursday i've had three songs from that film going around in my head. the final number 'everything i own', their cover of one of my all time favourite songs 'i want you to want me' and the amazing 'someone to fall back on'. wow. that last song i love. so much. the lyrics hit me hard. they're so beautiful.

"i am no prince,
i am no saint,
i am not anyones wildest dream,
but i will stand behind
and be someone to fall back on"

Good post :)
(I have a silly little question, and to save me embarrasing myself, I need your answer. Our College enrolment interviews..we don't bring our mothers along..right?)
