Dont let them eat cake.
When i first saw the preview for marie antionette, i thought it would suck, but i had no idea it would suck as bad as it did. Not only is her story of no interest to me anyway, but they screwed up her story in the movie. of course, no one is going to go to lengths to actually find out just how wrong the movie is, so here is a true, factual review, saying what i mean exactly by a brave, wonderful person on yahoo.com.
The reason why Louis and Marie didn't have children for awhile is b/c he had phimosis,he had an operation later and finally was able to give them children-it wasn't a fear of sex.Furthermore,I don't believe they even mentioned the Diamond Necklace Affair-which was probably the most plundering to Marie's reputation (google it if you don't know what it is). Also,the mob that marched in Versailles were ALL women,or men dressed as women(they thought it was less likely that the troops would fire upon women) AND, after she curtsied to the mob, Layfayette (whom was not even in the movie, or at least he did not play a large role in it) came out too, he bowed to her and kissed her hand. Layfayette was considered a hero to the French, so the mob changed their attitude, and instead of yelling "Shoot! Shoot!" (as they did when she first came out) they started saying "Vive la reine!" Or, long live the queen. None of that was in the movie.
hollywood ruins everything.

a crimson streak in my hair part II
Saw Saw III this weekend. Gotta say, i liked it. I went in expecting to see a gory, trying-to-be-like-the-first-two-but-failing film. It was soo good. It was the goriest of the three, smart and had good actors for once. I give it an A. why not A+? Well...let's be honest, it is real gory...
i died my hair golden-white for a change. tired of getting up in and morning and seeing the same dull color. (in case i havent already said, i've dyed my hair going on six times now.) the first time i went from dirty blonde to brown, the second time i went from brown to blue black. Then from blue black to regular black for about six months and loved it. It really complimented my face and electric blue eyes. Then i got tired of that and stripped it, turning it bright red. That also complimented me for a while. From there i went to a salon and she got it to a normal brown look that i carried for about six months, then i dyed it now, the golden white blonde. It's, to me, my best look. I look much younger and hair this color looks good in any style.
ANYWAY i know im supposed to be bitching about something as usual, but you caught me in a good mood. ^_^ nothing to bitch about today. Tomorrow im going to a cool hotel down here where a bunch of movie stars stay. Hope i see someone famous. bye yall.

shut up and sing
I honestly dont know where those red-necked hick country singers the dixie chicks got off bashing bush, but i hope to GOD they keep thier mouths shut in the future.
Don't get me wrong. I do not think Bush is the BEST president we've ever had or anything. He's made a few mistakes, i can admit that. But he's my president, damn it, and I'm going to be behind him. It's going to take a hell of a HUGE mistake by him to make me turn my back on him. If i was behind CLINTON i'll be behind Bush, damn it. Clinton was nothing to this country.
Bush was faced with an awful issue with 9/11. He was put into a horrible position when he found out that Saddam, a man who had nuclear weapons and was plotting to get rid of us, was torturing every single person in his country brutally. There were HORRIBLE things going on in Iraq. Absolutly disgustingly horrible. We went in there to set things right, after Saddam made it our buisness by lying to us about nuclear weapons and all the terrorism in our country. Think about sitting in the chair and looking at the reports and having to make a decision with all of that on your plate. That's how Bush feels. Of course i REALIZE he's not the brightest. Who cares? He's doing his best. On the ilegal immigrant issue however, he needs to think that through a little more...
but back to the chicks, where do they get off calling him bad names? They're a female country band...now, i might be mistaken (sarcasm) but aren't country singers JUST SINGERS? They dont have any more of a political voice than i do. if they don't like the president, they can jump in a lake. They sure as hell couldn't do any better than he is! AND they called him a hick from Texas...isn't that what they are?? Hicks? I've heard thier music. White Trash Wedding...couple bells go off in my head that spell out "hick". In other words, seriously just shut up. Whoever follows and says these girls are heroes are not only mislead on what a hero is, but also are incredibly unpatriotic.
People say they are "pro-america, anti Bush". That's a hypocrtical statement, because he's our damned president. We are supposed to be behind him and help him. I don't know about these other "pro-americans" but until Bush does something absolutly TERRIBLE (which he hasn't) I'm gonna be behind him, becasue this is my country and he is my president.
what about you?

Dreams...
I love escaping into the vast depths of my mind. During a boring lesson in my Physics class I'll gaze off into the wall and escape into a beautiful world of peace and calmness where i can sleep all day. Music plays in my head and i suddenly see the man of my dreams holding his arms out to me. I take them and feel the warmth of him consume me as we hold each other...
Usually im standing on a beach, staring at the beautiful splashes of orange and red of a sunset bathing the sky in vibrant warm colors that just fill me with happiness. The only sound i can hear is the calming and reassuring sound of the foamy, crystal blue waves rising and crashing on the shore. I close my eyes and know im home...that im safe...that nothing can hurt me in my place...I feel my love's hand on mine and his loving voice in my head, telling me he loves me and wont ever leave me...
im happy here....It's quiet here...i never want to leave...I can hear tiny chimes of bells somewhere in the distance as the sunset i stare at soon disapears and the sky darkens and stars illuminate the beach, lighting up the beach and fills my soul with hope. Even in the most dark pitch blackness, those starss light smiles down and kisses the surface of my face... My love pulls me up and we run into the cool water together, splashing and laughing, loving and living.
Then suddenly, like the snap of a finger, im pulled back into reality by the school bell for the next period. I see my beach fade into black, the stars disapear, my loving husband reach for me, only to disapear...
I wish i could always be in my place...in the silence...in the peace...
