SNL

*ignore my fat toesies*

We've had very fickle weather in the D lately. Kinda cold, super humid, sunny for an hour... *sigh*. You can wear a coat in the morning but be in your tank by 4pm, gotta love Texas.

Today I attempted to get rid of old clothes I didn't wear anymore and it was a complete and utter fail. I went to Platos Closet with my friend Brooke and they only took a tenth of the clothes I brought in and I ended up making a whopping $13.45! They didn't even take the pieces I thought were "best"! After that defeat I thought I'd take vengence upon the first store and take the rest of my clothing to their competitor Buffalo Exchange. They're known for giving better offers on your clothes, especially if they're in good condition, as javascript:void(0)mine were (some not even worn). After a a 25 minute drive that took 45 due to traffic we finally arrived at the second Consignment store downtown and wasn't allowed to take part in the exchange because my license was expired. Please cue the violins.

After all that dissapointment and wasted gas I needed to undwind with a few good films. Brooke and I got some chinese food, picked up my other friend Alice and decided to undwind with a movie night. We watched an Indpendent film I had been dying to see, "The Strange Thing About The Johnsons". It's an incredibly twisted movie. To be honest, anything I say won't do the film justice, you just have to watch it. Here's the trailer...

Nobody Cares

I started school last Wednesday and along with new school years are the "break the ice" activities. Every time I was asked to share my favorite movie with the class I shocked at the number of people who had never even heard of my favorite film. Enjoy.

The Stoning of Soraya M.

The other night I watched The Stoning of Soraya M. It's the story of a woman who is falsely accused of adultery by her husband and in result stoned to death. The story is told through her courageous aunt who had to witness the whole ordeal. This movie is one of the few that have ever brought me to tears. I cannot fathom the thought of more than one rock hitting my body so to see a woman being tied to the ground and having hundreds of stones pelted at her whole upper body (including her face) is very surreal. What makes it even worse is that this form of punishment is still practiced many countries around the world. Soraya's story is very moving and powerful but not for the weak hearted. I suggest this move for someone who is interested in an eye-opener.

CMILLI

Nothing major, she just looks completely and utterly amazing. Over the holidays I watched "Christmas Cupid" on ABC Family and she did a great job. Lol.

You'll Shoot Your Eye Out!

This movie is definitely a HUGE part of my Christmas. TNT plays it on a loop from Christmas Eve through Christmas day. So many quotables, such a classic, I can't wait. Happy holidays y'all.
