new layout, CCS; reading

Wednesday, 27 February, 2002 at 5:30 pm

*dances* Woohoo! I made a new layout! Weird, not exactly great, but I still like it. ^u^ *laughs and points to Syaoran trying to get away from Meilin* The lyrics on the top are from The Cardigans’ [heh, of course] song Sick and Tired. lol, Syaoran’s sick and tired of Meilin … *pouts* I want a new CCS DVD! Ceol said the next one has the episode where Kero and Syaoran switch bodies. Woot! I wanna see that one! Seeee iiitt!

Umm, okay, that was weird. I talked about the Amazon.com order, right? Last night I finished reading X/1999 Prologue. Must have more! Mommy asked on Monday when we’re going to order from Amazon next. I told her, “As soon as I finish reading this manga.” She wants to buy a book by someone who had a near death experience. Ooh, spoOoky! Actually, it’s more confusing, and mindboggling, but whatever. And if anyone was wondering … I got to page 31 in War and Peace a while ago, but stopped reading it ’cause I got addicted to Little Women, then Little Men [which I am more than two-thirds through already O.o]. I still don’t know what mon dieu means!

The stuff about Danielle don’tknowherlastname and don’trememberhisfirstname Pearl is saaaaad … :( But heh, Sarah Hughes. ^u^ I stayed up til 11:30 last night watching all that. Poor Michelle. Mommy said no one remembers silver and bronze medalists. :( That dad who killed his kids … ¬_¬ Poor mother. And South Korea and Russia. Heh. Has anyone ever pulled out of Olympic games? These are all messed up.

Earthquake. In California by the Mexican border … I forget the city’s name … Caliente? o_? No … Csomething. It didn’t reach here though. It was 5.2 … maybe. Mommy wonders what’s going on with all the earthquakes lately. We felt a sharp jolt Wednesday that no one ever commented on. I yelped cause I thought I did it, for the tiniest split second. I’d just turned off the TV!! Calexico. Woo, it was just on the channel 4 news. Lots of aftershocks.

YES! {in response to the anchorwoman’s “Were the expectations (of Michelle Kwan) too high?” kooky}

very slowly reading

What does mon dieu mean? *is too lazy to look it up* My something … That princess lady, the one married to the Bolonsky guy … Lisa? She’s said it twice so far. I’ve read 17 pages of War and Peace! I’m so proud of me!

After I finish this (and I do plan to finish it, even if I have to finish it the Scarlet-Letter-hard way) I think I’m going to read the rest of the Anne of Green Gables books. That is, if I can fight off the urge to reread Little Women, Little Men, and Jo’s Boys. Then if I ever get a freefreefree day (it has to be a really free day) I’ll read The Haunting of Hill House. ^.^ I’m shivering already.

Count of Monte Cristo

Sunday, 3 February, 2002 at 8:01 pm

We (Mommy, Mickey, and I) went to see Count of Monte Cristo. I don’t understand why that one person said it was the most predictable movie she’s seen. I rather liked it. :b I really liked it. I saw the person who played Albus Dumbledore in there. Heehee. Yes, I like him better in this movie.

Mommy said this movie didn’t follow the book, that the book was very long and involved. She said … *spoiler* … that the guy wasn’t his son, that he and that lady don’t get back together again, but he is very generous with his money … *end spoiler* … the person who played the son interested me, in sorts. ^.~ I don’t know his name, though. I missed a part of the credits, or didn’t know his role’s name correctly. *shrugs* No biggie.

yodeling

Some lady on the TV is yodeling “blue.” When Daddy asked, “Is she yodeling?” and Mommy answered yes, I started laughing, I don’t know why
