how is it that i work with people who don't know how to zip files? who weren't even aware that you can take files off of a cd and send them via email. i have bitches wanting to give me cds of shit. i'm like wtf, why don't you hand me a floppy disc while you're at it.
i have a lot to confess this lj session. i'm "in treatment" so to speak...
first of all: ADAM LAMBERT HAS TO WIN AMERICAN IDOL. omfg this flaming queen of a fantastic human being is so goddamned entertaining he deserves to be a pop star. his voice is obnoxiously broadway and surprisingly good. if he tours, i would see him in concert. no lie. why? because he knows how to PERFORM. it'd be the most amazing show ever.
second of all: TWILIGHT WAS SUCH A GOOD MOVIE!!!
i'm still not over how much i loved every minute of it, for reasons both right and wrong. omg my viewing experience was so satisfying that i had a tantrum when i couldn't copy the movie. dammit, i'm going to have to buy this shit! O__o
here's the deal, twilight is full of the teenage misfit awkwardness that characterized the books i read when i was in middle school, and this lifestyle still held some appeal to me, some mysticism (as did wanting a vampire to come through my window). i was thrown back to the time where i gushed over shit books like Blood & Chocolate and The Silver Kiss (both by Annette Curtis Klause, Stephanie Meyer's predecessor if you will) and couldn't wait to grab the next Lois Duncan (the woman responsible for I Know What You Did Last Summer- it was a book, you know) at the library in Randallstown.
the tldr version: i read books just like the pig trough soup stephanie meyers writes when i was younger, so this movie appealed to that part of me. honestly, i wouldn't be surprised if i could still sit through and read meyers.
it all started when bella walks into bio and the fan is blowing her hair and we get that unecessary slo mo moment- that's when i knew i would be enchanted by this magical two hours of power.
edward cullen is so socially inept and that bouffant, and the sparkling. l-o-fucking-l at mr.diamonds and rhinestones. he's like a set of those gaudy bling kits for your cell phone. how is that not attractive?
and if i hadn't been won over by these poor, bizarre little high schoolers, the best line of the movie hits me, "you're like my own personal brand of heroin" you guys, where's the man who will say that to me? i swooned.
and muse, during vampire baseball. i love muse and somehow "super massive black hole" made that scene less comical, almost...
cool (?)
highlights include when i guessed that the overweight homely chick at the diner bar was meyers doing a cameo. credits roll, and i was right. and james. hotter than papa cullen imo.
okay i still don't want to have to buy twilight like a freak. so can someone buy it for me? puh-lease.
