<3 having my own computer. <3 having "too many" friends on Facebook (maha).

Things are interesting though.

And btw...I fucking love Dancing with the Stars. And suddenly I want to do Tucker Carlson? WTF. He's a creep. But I love him now. Don't know when that happened.

I always let myself get so damn idealistic, though. And optimistic. Not cautiously optimistic, mind you. Full-blown crazy-ass optimistic like WHOA. Let's hope there's more to it than the simple of fact of me being a bit of an idiot about things of this nature.

Oh, what a tangled web we weave.

TEN DAYS, BITCHES!

So I'm severely arachnophobic. We're talking sheer panic at the sight of anything with eight legs. Irrational, yes very, but what can you do?

So we get to the lakehouse at Lake Chautaqua, and it's cute. Very cute. Nice view, lakefront, yada yada.

Except for the spiders. Everywhere the spiders. The people who own the lakehouse apparently don't clean, and they don't hire a cleaning service, so there were cobwebs and dead/living insects/spiders ALL OVER THE FUCKING WALLS.

= Sarah's worst nightmare. I felt like I was on fucking Fear Factor (which I kind of hate.)

So we vaccuumed and swept and cleaned, and still encountered the occasional arachnid, and I'm so damn glad to be home that I could weep.

Bleh.

Pirates of the Caribbean 2 (SPOILER WARNING)

Welllllllll.

This movie was surprisingly about 50% darker than the first. What with all the barnacle-encrusted eternal slaves, and the betrayals, and the alcoholism, and the cross-dressing, and the cheating-on-Will. Oh, and the whole Jack-being-swallowed-by-tentacle-monster. And the crazy witch. And the cannibals.

Couple of points:

A) The cliffhanger was kind of fabulous. I'm not gonna lie, Barbossa being back confuses the hell out of me, but whatever. He's awesome. It's awesome. And clearly Jack is not permanently dead, because Jack Sparrow = Pirates franchise.

B) Jack was amazing. Swishy and femme and played almost 100% for laughs, but I still would do him all week and twice on Sunday. Not to mention that I kind of want to start the First Church of Johnny Depp. Seriously? We all know that every time he exhales, some starving child in Calcutta finds a Fruit Roll-Up.

B) Commodore Norrington. Shit. I knew he reappeared because some asshole's icon on livejournal had him being all disheveled, but I was still a bit stunned. Because, whoa. First movie, pompous kind-of-attractive ass whose only goal in life is to get into Lizzie's corset and kill pirates. Second move...he falls off the wagon completely, and is suddenly MADE OF AWESOME. He's some kind of crazy alcoholic, and he ditched the powdered wig, and his clothes are all dirty and ripped-up, and he is THE SEXY. What the fuck happened to him, exactly? I don't even know. But I kinda like it.

Okay, fine, I really like it. So sue me.

I don't really even know what sort of rating to give the movie, because I didn't even like the first one all that much after the first time I saw it, but nowadays, about ten viewings later, it's one of my faves. Such is life.

Tentative 3 and 3/4 stars out of 5? 'Kay.

Love like the sexifying powers of hard living!

So, fall course schedule next year goes as follows:

Italian 101: Elementary Italian

Communication 200: Communication in Society

Economics H200: Principles of Microeconomics

and of course my School of Social/Behavioral Sciences Survey class...which doesn't last the whole quarter, but helps me plan for my degree, or some such. So far I'm still pretty solidly in the Journalism/Poli-Sci double-major camp.

Tres exciting. Orientation pretty much ruled.

Scratch that, I passed ALL of my AP tests, so yay.

Summer = boring. I miss my best friend like hell.

Well I got a 3 on my AP Calc test, so I get to skip to Calculus 2 (that's the same exact thing that happens to anyone who got a 4). I'd totally forgotten about these results, so I'm pretty stoked that I didn't fail.

Hopefully Gov and English will be pretty decent and I'll get to skip even more. Yaaay.

And hell, I've already decided that I'm absolutely taking a creative writing class. Maybe I'll ditch journalism after all, some things are more fun.

Who knows. Still keeping poli sci though.

Sweet fancy Jesus, I would let Cillian Murphy corner me in an airplane lavatory anytime.

And those EYES.

Let's not kid ourselves. We know exactly what the term "bedroom eyes" refers to.

I know I should be creeped out by the fact that, even after Lisa gave him an impromptu tracheotomy and he had to stick his finger in the hole to speak, I would STILL do him six ways to Sunday. But, I'm not.

And to the people that don't find him attractive?

Well, clearly we did not watch the same movie.

Love and sunshine to all, and to all a good night.

God, fuck you, iTunes. I don't know why you're forbidding me from uploading The Fray to my iPod, but I hate you for it.

Well, it's the big 1-8.

Now if I commit grand theft auto, I have to go to big people jail.

Le sigh.

But I can now legally purchase cancer sticks and bondage-themed pornography, so it's all good.
