To me it was worth it for the relationship between Ellie and Carl. Her adventure book--at the end--made me cry. (I'm such a softie nowadays).
Exactly! Though I tend to be one where a lot of excuses for a storyline pass with me. I just....was never too incredibly interested in seeing it. Except for the fact that he had to invent a camera to film it, which is pretty cool--I'll admit.
pft whatever! Don't blame me! I've been lax about journals recently anyway... and a hell of a lot has happened in the past 23 journals. You're in for a wild ride.
Dude, I can completely relate with that. One-sided relationships are no bueno. Been caught up in one or two of those in my life, and it's just shitty. Good call on your part. There's a saying that goes something like, "It's easier to pull someone off of a table than it is to pull someone onto one," if that makes sense to you.
Also, having a family who despises you sucks a big one. Crystal's mom was a total fucking bitch to me the entire time Crystal and I were dating. Fuck that whore. Anybody who can't look beneath the surface to divine a person's true character can eat a big fucking dick. You're a good dude, and if they wanna be pricks about you for no good reason, it's their loss.
It was, actually. I mean, I'm from PA (southeastern) so I figured I wouldn't get anything, but we did. :)
My reading slowed down a lot over break, but it's nice. I've missed reading over the semester.
I love to sing, but I don't like the sound of my voice. And also, I feel like I'm sucking and no one will tell me because they don't want to sing themselves. I mean, I can score well enough--hit the pitches and notes and such, but that doesn't mean it sounds good.
The cooking is going pretty well. We've had an unexpected day off today, but it's just...going with the flow. I don't know what tomorrow will be for food. I wanted to do things tomorrow which would impede on our plans because--I've heard--that chicken cordon bleu takes a freaking load of time and effort.
