The Breakfast Club......

This movie is said to be a cult classic and one of the greatest coming-of-age movies of all time. And, I have to agree. I absolutely loved it, I mean it was a little wierd and had a few surprises but the story was in a way the embodiment of school cliques, and that is waht I loved about it.

Each character was totally different.There was a so called jock, an obvious princess, a 'criminal' who acted like a jerk and a basket case who no one really new anything about. But that the thing is, each person was so much more than that, there was a story and a reason behind everything they did, it was absoulely hertbreaking at times.

The fact that they were all thrown together like that on saturday school and slowly go to know each other was a little predictable and simple but when it ended, I was just dying to know what would happen at school on monday. But the wonderful thing is, we will probably never find out!

I only wish I would I had the chance to do what they did and say what they said in this letter to their teacher, because some people really need to hear such things as this:

Brian Johnson: Dear Mr. Vernon, we accept the fact that we had to sacrifice a whole Saturday in detention for whatever it was we did wrong...but we think you're crazy to make us write an essay telling you who we think we are. You see us as you want to see us... In the simplest terms and the most convenient definitions. But what we found out is that each one of us is a brain...

Andrew Clark: ...and an athlete...

Allison Reynolds: ...and a basket case...

Claire Standish: ...a princess...

John Bender: ...and a criminal...

Brian Johnson: Does that answer your question? Sincerely yours, the Breakfast Club.

 

I found I was rather confused as to why they labeled themselves as the breakfast club. But when I was told that it was beacause of  the time of saturday school, I found it - in the oddest way- rather fitting.

Is an excuse still an excuse if it's the truth.......?

This is a question that I have constantly been asking myself.
I mean, the dictionary.com definition of an 'excuse' is:

an explanation offered as a reason for being excused; a plea offered in extenuation of a fault or for release from an obligation, promise, etc

But still, I'm not sure, because sometimes people just dismiss your reasonings saying that it is an excuse, as if it is a bad thing.
GRRRR!!!!!
I am in a turmoil of confusion.

You Made My Day

Thankyou A Chick Named Hermia! I saw my name on your blog roll and it made my day. :D
And for that, here are some lovely pictures I found................

I Had To..............

I nearly laughed my ass off hen I saw this on a t-shirt yesterday.......
Come to think of it, the wearer must have thought I was preeetyyy wierd.
Oh well.

"Sometimes I believe in as many as six impossible things before breakfast...."

The Mad Hatter: "That is an excellent practice."

I was watching the new Alice in Wonderland movie and I think it's adorable. But some of it annoys me because it reminds me of Harry Potter. My friend said that I'm as mad as a hatter, that it has nothing to do with Harry Potter. But I believe it is so.

Alan Rickman, who plays Severus snape is the voice of Absolem (the blue catterpillar who smokes a pipe). The tweedles remind me of Fred and George and Alice Kingsley or Hermione Granger. The Red Queen is a bit like Prof. Umbridge/ Proffessor Mcgonagall and so many scenes were reminiscent of of Harry Potter, like the bit where we first see the Red Queen's Castle.

Curiouser and Curiouser.
But any way, I haven't eaten eaten breakfast yet, so I could say that this is one of my six impossible things but then I realise that it is impossible for this to be impossible. *Sigh*

Musings of Me: Crush, Crush.

It seems, my dearest blog, that I have neglected you. For that I am truly sorry as I have absolutely no excuse.

The other day I as having a conversation with Kerwin that really made me think. You remember Kerwin right? From my 'Man I feel Like a Woman' rock out story?
Anyways, here's what was said:

Kerwin: So... you got your eye on anyone?

LittleOwl: What..?

Kerwin: Do you like a guy?

LittleOwl: No.. no I don't.

Kerwin: Really?

LittleOwl: Yea... I don't crush....

Kerwin: Oh.....

LittleOwl: What about you, got your eye on a guy?

Kerwin: gives LittleOwl an obvious look.

LittleOwl: remembers that Kerwin is a guy not a girl and already has Burrito, his girlfriend.

LittleOwl: Oh... yeah.. nevermind.

The thing is, what I said to Kerwin is true. I don't crush. That is become infatuated with people. There is of course those first crushes of a child, but other than that no. I may think smeone is hot or nice or has mesmerizing eyes and a great personality, but I don't crush.

Wierd or no?
Anyway... that coversation just really made me think.

Enough about me, what about the blog?

 

It seems as if I'm undecided. I have been continuously looking for a new template that suits me and my blog and that's well nice to look at but I can't seem to find one *sigh*.

I like the ones that have images in the background and then the blog where the writing itself is is white and I don't know whether I'm just really stupid, but I can't seem to find it any where!

So, until I can find a template I like, I'm just going to stick with a block colour background. And that is what I'm undecided about, I simply cannot decide between the pale yellow or white. Or should I just choose a completely different colour?

I leave it to you to decide my friends, because it seems that I cannot.

Yellow? Or white?

Or just something completely different...?

It will only be temporary but I do want to find a colour that suits while I'm looking for a template that does the same.

Have I told you about the time... I tried to change my look?

You see, I was getting bored with my preppy look so I decided to change it.

I swapped the barely there eyes for the more smokey, deep look. It was a slow transition, more mascara one week, eyeliner the next, then more eyeliner. And I have to tell you it looked really good. Until that day, that one day where I was in such a rush that I looked in the mirror less than my minimum of three times. 

Oh woe is me!

Arriving at school, I was inundated by looks. You see, the people at my school like to point out the obvious:
"You're wearing jeans LittleOwl!". 

Yes, yes, I am wearing jeans, which is what I have worn almost every day you have known me.

Anyway, back on topic I was being cautiously stared at, so obviously I thought I was looking pretty good.

Then this:

"Omg LittleOwl, who'd you get in a fight with?"says cow one.

""Yeah, It looks like someone punched you in the face." goes cow two.

Now, you're probably thinking they're just concerned, but note the cow one and two. These girls were not being nice, you could tell by the looks on their face and in their tone of voice.

I gave them my best 'wtf?' look and walked away.I went to the bathroom, and saw that my eyeliner was almost completely smudged and I looked like a sleep deprived panda. Shocked at my self, I quickly fixed it up to how it was supposed look and damn did I look fine! - no really.

I knew I looked different and my friends said the look was an improvement but the cows kept mooing and were seriously they were getting on my nerves.

I mean, had I ever told cow one that her eyebrows look like caterpillars that are slowly eating her face so that one day it will be a bottomless pit of nothingness? Or that cow two's new foundatuion makes her look like a crazy Halloween pumpkin? 

No! I've kindly kept my opinions tom myself, because I'm that kind of person and didn't want to hurt what feelings they still have.

Grrrrrrrr! I was soo annoyed, don't you hate people who take any chance they can to try and make fun of you or make you feel bad?

I know I do, I also know that drawing pictures crazy Halloween pumpkins and fat caterpillars makes it all better ( well mostly).

I was insanely embarrassed when I found out I looked like a panda who had cried itself to sleep but I was also annoyed that the cows had to point it out in such a way, could they not have said 'Hey, LittleOwl, your eyeliner is smudged.'? I mean really!

Anyways, I have since perfected my look and still kept my nasty opinionated thoughts to my self unlike some others I know. Hint. Hint.

 Well happy Easter to y'all.

Shawty's like a melody in my head that I cant keep out......

Seriously!

This song, 'Replay' by I.Y.A.Z is stuck in my head, and I can't get it ou no matter how hard I try!!!!!!!

So I though I'd let you join me in the torture by posting this link.......

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoG5jJ3E8rg

Not that its really torture, Its a great song with an awesome beat but its been my head for three days now and I am so almost over it!

Have you met...Dionysus... the greek god of......????

We were in drama and having learnt about the history of greek theatre in the previous lesson, the teacher asked us to tell those who were away what had happened. Up goes my hand and I start telling them about Dionysus's theatre and then it all goes wrong.

Teacher: Tell them who Dionysus is....

Me: He's a god.

Teacher: The god of what?

'Umm shit, ohhhh shit he's the greek god.... what's he the greek god of?

Me: Dionysus... he's the greek god of......

Teacher: Smiles encouragingly

Ummmm..... oh yeah it think it's......

Me: Wine!

Surely, thats enough, please somebody else please help me. Yeah you in the corner put your scrawny hand up!

Teacher: Wine and what?

Come on! Are you serious?

Oh wait I think I remember something! Wine and..... Wine and......

Me: Wine.... Sex and Fun....?????

Gods this is embarrassing, but I think it was something like that......

Teacher: I think you mean wine, pleasure and fertility...!

Me: Oh.. yeah!

Whoops! Well I was kinda right..... right?

"She thinks she's found a magical land... In the upstairs wardrobe."

Don't we all wish we had our own little Narnia?

I found mine today.......

Man I feel Like a Woman!

Let me tell you about one of the most embarrassing moments in my life!

I'd arrived home, and thinking I was alone turned the music on full blast. One of the most ultimate female power ballads of all time came on. It was 'Man I Feel Like a Woman' by Shania Twain. Turning up the music even more, I danced my way towards the kitchen. Then that part of the song came on, you know the part, the bit where you dance your heart out turn to your friend and shout the words:

"Man I feel like a woman!"

Well being me and being alone with no friends I just had to do the same thing but by myself. Shouting it out, I turn to see my brothers friend ..... Kerwin..... let's call him Kerwin. Anyway Kerwin was standing there staring at me, Ice cream scoop in hand with that look on his face, the one that says 'I see you doing that little dance when you think nobody's watching'. Neither of us says a word and I glare at him with my best 'lets not talk about this EVER!' look. He smirks at me and I can't help but thinking 'Omg what if he has a hidden camera somewhere and then posts it on you tube?!?' But then I realise I'm being stupid and return to my glaring. Kerwin laughs and  turns back to his ice cream. At the time I secretly hoped he choked on his spoon. I have never since lived it down and he brings it up when ever possible. I still think that one day I'm going to find footage of my afternoon rock out all over the internet.

Most embarrassed
