My Sister's Keeper review and Japan!
Jul. 13th, 2009 | 08:28 pm
feelings: blah
Best bits: Taylor storyline (although a little creepy, because the guy looked like he was around 26), Alec Baldwin and his dog Judge, Abigail Breslin and Jason Patric.
Worst bits: Cameron Diaz (although she is good a lot of the time, there were times when she bothered me), courtroom scenes, and excessive vomit.
My grade: B
Also, I'm going to Japan for two weeks on Wednesday! So I want to write some of the Minako prompts (I've kind of been off of the computer for several days)... but I can't promise much.
My best friend is moving to Shanghai on Thursday. I'm not quite ready for her to leave yet.

But... I leave for Japan on Wednesday, so... I don't know how I feel about that.

He is so fucking hot, and a really inspiring man, too.
But it was kind of funny because this guy asked about what Anderson thought about the state of LGBT affairs and the entire room kind of fell silent.
Today was the Day of Silence for GLSEN, and I nearly made it from 7-3, but my damn history teacher made me talk twice. Oh well. Next year will be more successful.
I also had to write my essay for the NCTE essay contest, and I get to find out if I win in... OCTOBER. Ugh. But oh my, if I win, that would be... amazing.

"OUTTA HERE!"

RIP Harry Kalas. You'll be missed.
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Autopsy results show that longtime Phillies' TV and radio broadcaster Harry Kalas died from heart disease.
A spokeswoman at the Washington D.C. chief medical examiner's office said Kalas, who died Monday, had high blood pressure and suffered from atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. The disease, in which plaque buildup restricts blood flow in arteries, is a major cause of heart attacks and strokes.
Known for his signature "Outta here!" home run calls, Kalas died after collapsing in the broadcast booth before the Phillies' 9-8 victory over the Washington Nationals. He was 73.
Kalas is survived by his wife and three sons, including one -- Todd -- who is a broadcaster for the Tampa Bay Rays. Funeral arrangements are pending.

feelings: pissed off
Well, my best friend, the girl who got me into this ana shit, decided that we need a break from our friendship. We've been fighting a lot lately, mostly due to her stupid crap about how wonderful she is and how thin and how rich and how she can't seem to wrap her head around the fact that she hurts me on a regular basis with her "OMG I GOT A 99% ON A MATH TEST, KILL ME" and the "OMG 100 POUNDS SO FAT."
Maybe it is a good idea, she pisses me off.

And I'm officially obsessed with To Kill a Mockingbird, both the book and movie. It's been my favorite piece of literature for a long time, but I just am crazy about it now.
Next week I am going to Boston University, Northeastern, Quinnipiac, Hofstra and Marymount Manhattan. I am ridiculously excited for my BU and MM visits. Unfortunately I didn't get any homework done this week, so tomorrow I'll be writing a play and some sort of creative writing thing. Then that will leave Wuthering Heights to read, and I've already started. Considering I'll have LOTS of driving time... I think I'll be fine.
Going to get more tea.

So far today I've had:
1 bottle of Function: Light Weight (acai & pomegranate) - 10 calories
2 grapefruits - 30 calories
3 apple slices and peanut butter - 20 calories
1 FiberOne chocolate and oats bar - 140 calories
1 cup of lentil soup, 1.5 tablespoons reduced fat sour cream & a sprinkling of 2% milk cheddar cheese - 160 calories\
Nori Strips (Seaweed) - 5 calories
Half a South Beach Living Mocha FiberFit bar - 60 calories
Corn - 85 calories
2.5 Cashews - 10 calories
1 cup Cheerios with skim milk and strawberries - 180 calories
Total: 700 calories
I'm going for 1000 calories at the most. I'm also going to do some cardio in a bit and hopefully burn about 250 calories.
Oh, and apparently I'm going to see a doctor for my depression/ADD issues, and so I'll probably be prescribed ADD meds aka, APPETITE SUPPRESSANTS!
Isn't it awful that I'm EXCITED to take meds for the weight loss benefits?

I'm glad All State is over. Now I can focus on the rest of my to-do list for this year:
1. Get through Into the Woods
2. Practice piano and guitar, become slightly proficient
3. Find my college choices
4. Read
5. Watch
6. Write at least one month all the way through for SMMFC
7. Work on L’eclat de Lumiéres
8. Lose ten pounds
9. Get on the first honor roll again (third trimester)
:) It's going to be a busy year.
Oh, and my new computer came in. I love it. Got 34 songs on iTunes in celebration. Bad choice when there's no real source of income...
