When In Rome vs. When In Rome


I watched it 3 times in 2 days because it was so witty, funny, and charming. and oh my goodness, Josh Duhamel is so good looking and the soundtrack provided a couple good ones, including an old favorite.
"6 beers enter, no beers leave"
"You ordered an 8 pack.. enjoy"
"Miss.. you have all the time in the world"
Jon Heder was a hoot he was probably my favorite character.
but
I found out there is a movie called "Three Coins in the Fountain" where basically the exact same thing happens.
I don't care, I still like it.

so, taking in that this movie is a major copy-cat but is still super good, I give this 6.







oh boy.
frankly, back then I found myself as bored as 10 year old can be. now I can get through the cheesy lines and bad co-star acting.. barely. okay it's not that bad but they've made way better movies.
"We were fired over instant coffee! I'd call that an over-reaction!"
the acting is SO BAD in this one. one of the twins has a really cute boyfriend but his horrid attempt at acting shadows the good.
my sister and I were obsessed like every other girl. I had some good times with this set of twins. but really, I prefer Fred and George.

4 out of 10.



verdict: new trumps old.
if you haven't seen When In Rome (first one) your missing out on a laugh!

merrh.

my face got burned over the weekend and is starting to peel already, and my scalp got burned as well. it's the worst when your scalp peels. everyone thinks it's something else and wants to say hey, use Head and Shoulders shampoo for that.
my life.
also, I absolutely hate aloe vera. it stings and makes me want to cry.
Sonic, 2 for 1 shakes right now 'till June 27th.
I miss people that are nice including Eryn, Tiffany, and Cade.
and I want to get away, just leave to California or something with my best friends. this summer is sure not shaping up to what I thought it'd be.
but it's okay, I lift weights.
HA, joke. sick sick joke.

i like them weekends

it was one of those sunscreen rubbin', shade finding, team hating, friend missing, fun having, pool dipping, hotel staying, gatorade drinking, ball playing kind of weekends. I learned some things:

1. Down N' Dirty (ridiculous name, even more ridiculous team) really is dirty. the kind of dirty where coaches and the crowd are yelling mean things and the shortstop tries to sabotage 2 of our players. please, grow up and find a new team name. sorry.
2. when Ammon wears his green tank top, things instantly get better
3. WINGERS HAS LADYBUGS IN THEIR SALAD SOMETIMES and we get 2 free asphault pies out of it, thanks Robyn!
4. I wish Kati was still at second, it feels empty with anyone else there. Briggs, come back to us.
5. the ball park has this delicious treat where they take frozen fruit in a cup and pour sprite all over it. it's so good, I almost bought 5 of them. if you're ever in Brigham City, hit them up.
I like softball and all the dirt that comes with it.

i'll justa do my best

things i'm trying to improve on:
keeping my room clean
driving
drawing
speaking when i'm nervous
taking pictures
sewing and knitting
singing
shakin' it like the drill team
waking up on time
curling my hair
"skills" i could do without:
being messy
procrastinating
being a klutz
stuttering and mumbling
making retard faces
sleeping too much
being sick
addictions to the O.C. and Harry Potter
enjoying 30 minute showers daily
inconsistency

marvelous!

sometimes i go to the concert in the park, eat strawberries and ice cream with Syd, Hayden and Ammon, then i go to a really cool house (and listen to messages on a play phone I love you Lisa) and talk about sports and SG Kobe, who i totally know.
sometimes i play softball at 8 a.m. then eat strawberries and watch the Bachelorette at Mac's house.
sometimes i play wiffle ball with Robyn Ryan and Nate and be a player and slide into second base then down a 32 oz. lemonade right after.
sometimes i wish basketball wasn't so cool to play and realize Matt Moon is such a cutie pie.

she's alive?

for those of you who have tried to contact me in the last week (syd kati robyn cade ryan ammon), I thank you. now I know sometimes people want to socialize with me, yesss.

life update: i've been sick for a week now but I think I'm on the road to recovery (for the 5th time). I've missed 3 softball workouts plus 4 games, water balloon fights, shwimmin', 3 movie nights, birfday party, Old Navy's $2 tanks sale, Chili's with the fam, condo-looking, playing with 6 adorable children multiple times, fishing trip, and basically my whole 2nd/3rd week of summer.

but
i got a number of things done.
watched: The Holiday, Harry Potter And The Prisioner Of Azkaban, Win A Date With Tod Hamilton, Field Of Dreams, The Notebook, Have You Heard About The Morgans, The Incredibles, Toy Story 1&2, Step Up, Stick It, The Fugitive, and The Mask.
read: Harry Potter And The Prisioner Of Azkaban, Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire, Learning The Game, and Any Bitter Thing.
ate: half an apple, some pasta, some grapes, and 9 popsicles.
drank: lemonade (3X), cranberry grape juice, orange juice, V8 splash, agua of course, and a whole bottle of apple juice.
so I guess you could say it hasn't been a total waste of my time. I just can't wait to get better, girls camp is coming fast and i gots no goods. sigh.

what do you do when you are in a fight with your immune system?


that.

the katydid

i think the katydid is one of the coolest bugs. one time i found one on the ground in my front yard, but only because i accidentally hit it out of a tree (i bet you can guess what i named it too). it looked exactly like a leaf. they are real good at blending in. i wish i was like that, genetically designed to be good at blending in or fitting in. this may possibly be the only bug i appreciate besides butterflies.



and i think a girl named katy named it.
who named it?
katy did.

oh seth.

ABC Family packed 3 great movies in a row today. Step Up, Stick It, and The Notebook. if I could I would magic Rachel out of the movie and co-star with Ryan Gosling myself. whatahunk.
I'm getting sick :(
and the ACT is in one week. it'll be my first time.
saw Dear John, hated the ending.
men.
softball already?
I flippin' love the O.C., Seth is the funniest character ever. I wouldn't mind co-starring with him either, just saying.
they were dating for reals a while back. I think they should get back together. so cute.


Seth: So, what's the GP, RA?
Ryan: I have no idea what you just said
Seth: Game Plan, Ryan Atwood
Ryan: You're just using initials now?
Seth: Yeah, it saves time
Ryan: Well not if you have to translate
Seth: GP
Ryan: Game Plan?
Seth: Good Point

haha.

Count on Me- Bruno Mars. my favorite song right now.
our whole house smells like sulfur now because we've been playing with those two balls that make loud noises when you hit them together. sick.

water balloons
rainy days
Up
my hammock
sunburns
fwens

no title

you know what word I like alot? agile. especially when you put the word crazy in front of it.

my and Syd hiked to the G today. it was really nice of Mother Nature to spare us and lightly rain on us. we're out of shape. and we stumbled along this:


there is a really cute boutique in Highland. too bad I can't spend $12 on a flower bobby pin, or $30 on a charm. yikes!

Ryan Moon comes back today from Baltimore, and we're going to bake him a cake.

tortillas, the ones you buy uncooked, are so good.

my family went fishing in Utah Lake, and my brother Luke got his line stuck. one thing led to another and the top half of his pole slid down the line and got stuck too. this was the result:

hehehe


that's all.
