I'm Not Drunk, I'm Just A Bad Driver

I wanted to like The Happening, I really did. I have stood by M. Night Shyamalan since the beginning and when people hated his last two films, I remained his fan and thought he would get better. But, The Happening was just awful and messy. The acting was horrendous and the dialogue was even worse. He has lost his "touch". I didn't feel or see a bit of his style in this movie. I'm just not a fan anymore and won't be until he returns to his original style. I felt like this movie was a joke and I do understand the idea was to strike fear of the possibility that this could happen, but the message was hardly delivered. People laughed and walked out the theatre angry that they wasted their $10. I think he really dug himself a hole this time.

After the movie, we all went and ate Ihop around 1:00am. The one we went to is near the beach, where all the clubs and bars are, so we saw several road blocks and cops everywhere, trying to chase down the drunks. On my way back home (I'm following behind Todd's car), I'm minding my own business, when I see flashing lights behind me. I start to panic when I realize it was a cop! At first, I started to tear up and get angry, because I knew for a fact that I was actually going UNDER the speed limit, but I decided to be really nice, in hope that I would be let off. I was surprised to see the cop was extremely friendly. He said his boss wanted him to pull me over, because he thought I was drunk, because I was swerving outside the lines. I almost started to laugh, as I told him of course not, I just can't see very well at night. He let me go and told me he didn't even have a reason to pull me over smile

I was so worried my perfect driving record would go out the window!

I Have A Blog?!

If anyone knows me, they know I ~~like~~ LOVE shopping. However, I despise shopping for jeans, even for my lovely skinny jeans. I am petite, have thin, muscular legs (thanks for the years I ran as a child) and my waist is tiny, so I have a better chance winning the lottery than finding the right pair of jeans. I seriously have to plan a day where I can spend hours shopping just for pants, instead of getting distracted with cute tops, jewelry, purses, and makeup. I was able to snag a pair of skinny jeans at H&M and although they don't fit as well as I would like them to, they are comfortable. If it was up to me, however, I would wear frilly dresses and heels all day, every day.

new pants

Anyway, I have really been busy with life and haven't had the time nor the desire to blog. I have something really exciting coming up next week - a photoshoot! I can't believe it! I never thought it could be possible, but it is. I will be using these photos to build up my portfolio and set up an actor's headshot for when I go to L.A. next year. Things are finally getting on track for me smile

Everyone keeps telling me I need to at least give L.A. a try and my mother believes I have a shot, so why not? Of course, I understand that the chances of me actually getting into Hollywood is almost impossible, but there is no harm in trying. I know L.A. isn't the nicest of places to live, nor do I know what I'm doing, but to me, that is the fun of it all. I'm young and I have no responsibilities, so I don't want to regret not taking the chance when I'm older. Not many people follow their dreams anymore, so why join them?
