Well, I hope everyone had a great 4th of July! Ours was fairly mellow and uneventful. I spent most of the morning sleeping (actually, recovering from getting 3 hours of sleep Thursday morning after spending most of the night awake), finished the main part of a baby blanket I was forced to put aside due to school while watching a What Not to Wear marathon on TLC; DH spent the morning on his computer, of course. We went to my parent’s house for dinner. And now, we’re here.
Like I said. Mellow.
So much has been going through my head lately that has made me realize: I’m really bored with my life. So much so that for the greater part of yesterday, I was scheming on the most successful way I could juggle both nursing school and a career as an actress (with absolutely no acting experience, no less). Yeah. I know.
I guess I’m not as busy as I originally thought. So no more idle thoughts for me. I’m going to work more now. No more being a baby about it. I would have enough time for school/studies AND work if I weren’t such an idiot and spend half the day doing absolutely nothing productive on the internet. So of course, studying will fill in the in between times, as well as play Good Housekeeping. Because truthfully, I’m tired of not having money. And even more so, I spent exactly 1 week not working since I told my manager I won’t be working. So yeah. Let’s just say that I’m fickle about 99.9 % of everything.
ANYWAY. So, since I’m in between classes and have been so graciously given a whole week off for the July 4th holiday, I’ve been doing pretty close to nothing except being completely lazy and, of course, working. I have become completely, totally, without a doubt obsessed with the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer. Considering I’m already a HUGE fan of any literature that’s fantasy or sci-fi in nature, this series is right up my alley. The books are amazing, and I’ve developed a huge crush on protagonist vampire - HAHA. Or is he the antagonist… I don’t know. Whatever literary element he is, I like it.
Anyway, if you haven’t already done so, do check it out!
As for the movie… I’m looking forward to it, but not really. I don’t know. I think the movie, from what I’ve seen of trailers and such, doesn’t follow the book (which is not surprising, but is disappointing). And Robert Pattinson, who plays Edward Cullen, looks NOTHING like I imagined Edward to look. He isn’t that good looking, in my opinion, but he looks stiking and beautiful in the movie. But still, nothing like I imagined. And Kristen Stewart as Bella Swan is even worse. But, whatever.
