The Academy Awards

A few days ago was Oscars night. I'm here to give ye my opinion on the night's events

Best Actress: Kate Winslet
(My Opinion) Best Actress: Meryl Streep

I was kind of glad Kate won though. Everyone knew she was going to win it. Meryl Streep deserved it though. Lova Ya Meryl Streep!

Best Actor Sean Penn
(My Opinion) Best Actor Brad Pitt (or Zac Efron, if he was nominated)

Only because he's hot., but not hotter than Zac Efron, who does not looks like a dork

Best Supporting Actress: Penelope Cruz
(My Opinion) Best Supporting Actress: Amy Adams or Anne Hathaway

I was torn between choosing Anne or Amy to root for, but in the end, I liked Penelope's accent.

Best Supporting Actor (Posthumourous) Heath Ledger (R.I.P)

I admit that I was rooting for Heath the entire time. It was sweet how when the audience had the close ups, Anne, Brad and the others had tears in their eyes. I never knew Brad pitt to have tears in his eyes, what a guy! (applause) AWWWW

Best Picture: Slumdog Millionaire

(My Opinoin) Best Picture: Doubt

I'm also glad Slumdog Millionaire won, it had that sort of Best Pictire Quality to it, if you know what I mean. The kid actors were adorable.

Best Animated Feature: Wall-E

I only saw half of this, but I knew it was goint to win Best Animated Feature, just by the quality, picture, sound and overall likeability. Also, why do the Best Short Films always have the foriegn titles? I don't get it.

The Dresses:

Meryl Streep

Miley Cyrus

Penelope Cruz

Anne Hathaway

Amy Adams

Meryl Streep had that really neat upsweep hairdo, which I loved. It went well with her dress. Every time there was a shot of her in the audience, i felt like I connected with her, like she was my grandmother or something.

I was surprised that Miley Cyrus was even AT the Oscars, but then I figured out that Bolt was up for Best Animated Feature, so I guess that's why. Her gown/dress was pretty and it made her look grown up. (NOTE: I will blog later about my top and least favorite Hannah Montana episodes later)

I'm not sure I like Penelope Cruz too much. I think it's because I've never seen any of her movies and I've only seen her at awards shows. I loved her dress and her face reminded me of Audrey Hepburn.

Anne Hathaway looked really pretty in her dress/gown. It went well with her hair. She also really made me want to go see Rachel Getting Married, but I'm not sure I'll like it, so I'll just stick with re-watching Princess Diaries, Ella Enchanted, Devil Wears Prada and Hoodwinked.

Amy Adams really wowed me with her dress/gown. It was stunning and beautiful. I really loved the way it brought out her eyes and red hair. Now I shall go watch Enchanted, or not, the DVD doesn't excatly work, oh well.

The other dresses were okay. They just didn't catch my eye like the others did. Mickey Rourke, just reminded me of a motorcycle dude. I'm sorta glad he didn't win.

Hugh Jackman was awesom, better than Ellen. He was very funny, but kind of dorky. I loved when her pulled Anne up on stage. Even though it was planned, Anne really made it look like it was impromtu. She's a wonderful singer.

The part with the top hats was amazing. I loved it when Zac and Vanessa, and Amanada Seyfried with Dominic Copper came out. Amanda looked radiant in her outift. I though it really brought out her hair and her eyes.

It took me a good few seconds to figure out why Ben Stiller came out in a long beard, hat and sunglasses to present with Jennifer Anniston, or I think it was someone else. Please tell me in the comments if I'm wrong, anyway, I read later that he was parodying Joquin Phoenix, maybe that's why I didn't get it.

The short film with the guys sitting on the couch, reviewing the Oscar movies was too funny, especially how they made up a song while watching Mamma Mia. It was jus to dang funny.

Hmm, what else? I think that's it! My next few blogs will be reviewing the best and worst Disney Channel episodes. Starting with: Hannah Montana.

I hope you loved the Oscars as much as I did, that is if you watched them.

I shall bid ye adieu.

Good bye bloggy world

CORRECTION: I was rooting for Anne Hathaway to win Best Actress not Supporting Actress. OOPs!

The Awesomness of my life and also my major regrets

Dear Blog

The following is ten things that are awesome about my life:

1. I can look up to a wonderful actress, Julie Andrews
2. I have lots of friends
3. I can write
4. I am a good person
5. I am usually happy
6. I am a nice person to my friends and family
7. I'm pretty good in school
8. I can tell pretty good jokes
9. I can make people laugh
10. I'm darn good pirate

Here are some major regrets, things that I probably should not have said.

1. I remarked loudly that my firend was a cranky pants and she heard me
2. I went too far with a "Yer mom" joke, it was something that I really should not have said
3. I had a few "slip of the tongue" incidents with my friend
4. I hit a guy with the intials "DW" in the chest
5. I forgot to close the curtains at the end of a musical called, "Rock Around The Block"
6. A lego tower fell over and hit a little kid in the head, causing minor bleeding

One intresting fact about me, whenever I know I said something wrong and I feel really bad about it, the roof of my mouth tingles, but burns a bit. I hate it, but one thing is awalys certain. a year from now I will read back on this and think about how I have forgotten about so many of thses things.

Things I've learned today

1. Mona has a really good way of weaseling things out of me: hands on hips and glaring rigght at me through her large sunglasses. Her words echoe through my mind, but I'm sure I'll forget about it soon enough, of that I am sure.
2. My friend has not seen his mom in abou fifteen years (names changed to protect the person)
3. Mona is scary when she's angry
4. Mrs. P can raise her voice when she wants to be authoritive, very effective
5. Boys can be weird
6. I won't belive Julie Andrews has passed away, because she's alive and nothing Mona says can change it, no matter how hard she tries.
7. I am really glad I have a blog to use when i need to clear my mind
8. Sometimes it's really good to type out your feelings and thoughts
9. If I listen to Sally in History long enough, I might go crazy and have to live all alone in the Artic in a small igloo
10. No matter what, I can always think of myself as a good person, who does her best and is a good friend to everyone, especially to someone who's feelings I accidently hurt, hey, at least I try!

i am now off to do some writing. My mind is cleared off all my wrongdoings and I am ready to move onto more cheerful and happy things.

Thanks Bloggy!

Sleepover

Dear Diary,

The time is now 11:02. I am using the laptop at Aly's house. We are being very hyper due to over tiredness. Aly has a cute, pudgy beagle by the name of Bagle. She also has a rabbity rabbit named Gizmo. He has a funky hairstyle

Bagle howls every day, according to Aly. We had popcorn, went to Red Robin, and is currently in the middleof watching Pippi Longstocking. It is very fun. We pulled the sofa bed out and lay our sleeping bags on it.

We also are trying to plan out our dream castle , including mapping out and planning each room in the castle. We are having lots of fun. Aly's parents are now goin up to bed, so me an Aly have to be extra quiet and not make silly burp or fart sounds with our arms.

Tomorrow, Alys mom is making us pancakes and scrambled eggs. Yuummmmmyyy!!!

Id better get to sleep. will post again tomorrow morning when I get the chance!!!!


Auf Weidersein and Gnite, bloggy!!!

Love
