Seriously, what the heck?

So there's a few things that fall under this title...

First one; okay so I'm way behind when it comes to popular books/music/media. I always jump the bandwagon way too late. Last week I was at the library and I saw Bridget Jones's Diary (the book) and I thought, "Sure, why not?". Well, it's an easy fun read so I finished it in a few days. I really enjoyed it, found it wickedly funny. So then I wanted to get the movie, thinking, "Oh, this will be just as good right?"

I was so far from right...

WHAT A PIECE OF JUNK!!!! Reene Zellweger has probably the worst put on English accent, it was totally off from the book, less funny and totally had all those Hollywood add-ins. (Fight scenes that had barely anything to do with the story) and they skipped over my favorite part of the book where Bridget's mother gets involved with a man who scams all her rich friends into buying time-shares that don't exsist!) Also the movie was so inconsistent in other aspects; like sometimes there would be on screen text of what Bridget would think or write in the diary and then they just sort of quit that idea early on.

So why am I talking about a movie that no one cares about that happened in 2001? Hello! Cause I'm the Queen of Being Behind.




Next topic; I still don't know what to be for Halloween. Everyone is going as a zombie, not that I have anything against that, but EVERYONE is. My best friends are going to be zombie Elvis and Percilla (even though she's still alive). I was thinking of being zombie Farrah Faucet (I don't have poor taste, I'm just heartless, heh) and Ben is thinking of being zombie Patrick Swayze...once again yeah probably poor taste, but who's here to take offense? I just got told I should be zombie Lady Gaga...to which someone else responded, "She already is a zombie." haha True Story.


There was going to be a final topic, but I am becoming tired and distracted, so is the life of a procrastinator.


Till, later....much later,

Sami
