It's Early In the Morning!

I'm sitting here watching a strange French movie about a gay guy with cancer. Pretty sure he just died on the beach. It's like Total Eclipse. Except not. Because Total Eclipse was at least in English... this movie is in French. Ugh. It's called Time to Leave. We've also watched the South Park movie and now Bobby is on. Lindsay Lohan and Elijah Wood were making out for like, two seconds, and now it's boring. Movies are great- they kind of define my existence. They're even better after drinking Monster, which my dad says is like doing speed. I love movies. The Prestige is about to be on, and Spiderman 3 is on. That was a bad movie. The other ones were good, but #3 sucked. Atonement should be on soon, and that movie was really good. But I don't feel like watching it right now. Instead we are watching another weird movie entitled Introducing the Dwights. It's odd. I think this guy may be gay, too. This is possibly the most confusing movie ever made. My stomach hurts. Movies are awesome. They should be worshipped. MOVIEEEEESSS. woohooo, yay! Here is a list of movies that I need to see again or for the first time. the ones with stars are the ones I've seen.

I Guess It's November

And that changes everything- I mean, we've been in school two whole months now. The first quarter is over, which is huge, because that means one fourth of the year has passed by way too quickly. November is change, always has been and always will be. It's the election, it's the time change, it's the start of things, for real this time. My list of things for November looks something like this:
1. Destinations application due 14th
2. Two government projects and an Algebra project due
3. Thanksgiving is the 27th
4. My sister is riding in a horse show on the 21st
5. My mom is going on vacation on the 14th
6. Election on the 4th
7. Start saving money for Christmas
8. NHS induction
9. Get a job
10. Get my permit
11. Get winter clothing
12. Oliver is starting
13. NaNoWriMo*
14. Remember to get new contact lenses

that's it for now...

*NaNoWriMo- National Novel Writing Month. I'm writing a novel! It has to be at least 50,000 words and you may ONLY write in the month of November. I'm excited. 966 words written today. I'll post the thing when I'm done with it, if it's any good.
