There Ain't No Cowboy in My Hair

This week has been extremely busy-but, still no excuse for not posting. As off four hours ago I finished 1/4 of my IB film test. It was very stressful, but I'm incredibly relieved. Speaking of which, I've gotten Sunday off so plans for filming are confirmed. What times work for you? It needs to be midday (I have some nightish scenes, so I'll need both evening and daytime). Also, C, I realized you need at least three outfits--it happens over a few days.
More importantly, though-- I now have a little feline friend. He doesn't have a name yet, but is adorable. He's a teenage cat (less than a year) and very friendly. I was doing my biology homework last night and he came and curled up next to me with his arm and head resting on my leg. He also attacked my mom, though--he really loves cat nip and went a bit insane when we gave him some. We adopted him from the Vet where my older sister works. He still needs a name, though. Everyone loved Emmet, but I put my foot done. It's my favorite boy's name and I wanted to save it-- I suggested Lincoln. Any suggestions?

Update: He is now called Jimmy--I had a cuter picture (he was asleep), but for some reason I didn't grab it off the camera. I'll tie it on to the end of the next post.

Jimmy The Cat

At lunch Monday I went to sit with Alicia (can we change this? It will just confuse me) and she was sitting with this extremely cute boy. Turns out he was a German exchange student, and when I say "cute" I mean beyond adorable, attractive, and fit. He has really nice greenish eyes, light brown hair that is a bit shaggy and curls around the edges, has that nice tan you get from sitting outside in the summer (little freckles), and is extremely tall. He's really sweet, nice, and speaks very good English. He told me he was turning 16 on March 11th and that he was a Junior, but I talked to Tom (J's boyfriend) about him and he said he thinks that he knows who I'm talking about and it's actually a sophomore-- I really couldn't care less. Anyway, on Tuesday I was looking forward to sitting next to him so I rushed to Alicia's table and she wasn't there! Our Spanish teacher had switched lunches for that day. I only really know one other person who sits there (and not very well) so I couldn't sit done. I gave him a smile, though, and ( I think) he smiled back. Anyway, I have a feeling I made a really bad first impression on him--which I need to fix. Today, Alicia and I fully circled the cafeteria twice, trying to find him, but we think that he doesn't have our lunch Wed/Thurs. We will find him Friday, though. Oh! Guess what his name is? You know my favorite movie with the Cat Stevens soundtrack? He has the same name a the mail lead (but is nothing like him). J, you must help me with this--you have his lunch two times a week.
What kind of movies do I like... well, I really do like artsy movies, foreign films, indie films and all of those (both funny and serious), and to be honest that's usually what I end up watching. I also, though, really enjoy romantic comedies-- I mean, I'm a teenager girl, it's practically part of my DNA to be a bit sappy. I also, though, like mystery movies (and books--it's a weakness, I have to know what happens), and some action/horror. I'm fairly varied-- the only thing I can't stand is when artsy films go wrong and just turn weird and sometimes creepy.
A, I know you were talking about needing 20's flapper clothes. You can find those hats at Forever 21 (14.95, I think), but you can also get feather clips and stuff there for a few dollars. Also, isn't the key to 20's fashion dropped waist dresses that fall just around (usually, just below) the knee? I looked through my wardrobe and found 2 outfits that were 20's--I'm sure some people in your class will have stuff like that two. 20's accessories are really in style now. I agree with Clair, boys will be harder--but suspenders are an easy way to look more 20's, right?

I never wrote at all about going to Portland--it was very nice, and general population is alot more stylish. Yeah, I think I told you guys the rest.
Sorry, I felt that was just a list of facts--I'll update again this week and it won't be so jam packed.
Also, C, I've been absolutely loving The Tallest Man on Earth (thanks for recommending it). I want to learn this song... While, there would be a song here, but I can't figure out how to put it in. Just follow the link:
