Post the Eighteenth: Movie Night

Sooo I realize that I missed yesterday's post, but there's a reason for that... the reason being that I had just under a dozen people over yesterday for about 9 hours.

I hosted a Disney movie night at my place. It went a LOT better than the previous week's attempt at a movie night. Lots of friends came over and it was a blast. We watched The Rescuers, A Goofy Movie, Up, and Aladdin. Good times. We set out a ton of food for them and they ate nearly all of it. I was a little stunned. I'm not used to feeding guys. They aren't as shy as girls about eating. lol It was about half-and-half, with more guys for most of it. Daniel and Tyler arrived early at around 1:45, and Kat, Zach, Yvette, and Vinny left at about 11:20. So, yeah, just over 9 hours. And then I had to clean up. D:

Anyways, life rolls on.

I've been doing chiefly 2 things with my free time today: listening to songs from A Very Potter Musical and reading Scott Pilgrim.

I keep listening to Harry (the song) from AVPM. It's Ginny singing about how she loves Harry and he doesn't notice her. I relate, Ginny, I relate... lol

Scott Pilgrim is this comic series I've been vaguely aware of for a few years but never read. I saw the trailer for the upcoming movie adaptation of it and figured I should finally read it. IT'S GOOD. It's very funny and very entertaining. I'm excited for the movie now, I hear the director of Sean of the Dead and Hot Fuzz is directing it, so you KNOW it'll be good.

Other than that, today we went to Ikea. We went to get vases and fake orchids for the centerpieces for my sister's wedding, and I offhandedly said how I would like a bookcase for my room. The truth is I REALLY wanted a bookcase REALLY badly -- I've got a rather small one built into my room, but... I need a big one, and there is a PERFECT space for one beside my desk -- but y'know, money's tight, didn't wanna ask for one. So my mom got me one. And a new desk chair. Yeee! The bookcase is incidentally the PERFECT size, I measured when I got home. It's 24 3/8" x 65". It's as tall as I am, hehe. (This will be useful if people go into my room and stand next to it so I can see how tall I look beside them.) The desk chair is this weird custardy banana-y yellow and is rolly. It doesn't look very comfortable but surprisingly it is.

Oh, which reminds me, I got shoes for the wedding the other day. They're quite pretty and also a bit scary, I need to learn how to walk in them properly, I am a heelnoob. They're fairly comfortable though. Just... scary.

So, in accordance with yesterday's thingy, I'll post an art piece that I like.



Isn't that the craziest fucking cake you've ever seen?? I saw it on a message board and I was like WHAT THE FUCK, SAVE.

Cake can be art and art can be cake.

For today, I'm to post 'whatever I fancy', so I shall post a celebrity whom I fancy quite a lot, Colin Firth.



Picture is from the BBC Pride and Prejudice miniseries which is quite good, not only for Colin Firth but also for Jennifer Ehle who is THE PERFECT ACTRESS to play Elizabeth. The entire series is fantastic, I highly recommend you go watch it. Don't watch the recent Hollywood movie version, it sucks. A lot. Ruins the characters. Is very liberal with the plot. Sucks.
