I hate homework! It keeps me from seeing my friends ... haha yeah, I'm talking about their homework not mine.

(sorry the pic is small, if you can't read it you can see it better on the site I got it from, plus others: http://www.grymonpre.com/math/chmath.htm)

100 Blogs :D

Celebrating my 100th blog post is my new header picture, which I made myself, depicting a small bit of my awesome life, made awesome by some of my spectacularly amazing friends. I had about 100 more photos I would've liked to fit on here, but alas, the human eye can only take in so many images at once, and I wanted to make them big enough for you to see. I may change the photos from time to time if I can be bothered. Hope you like it.

I'm in repair, I'm not together but I'm getting there....

If you don't talk to me soon, I half hope you don't show up. Because you really don't know how much you're hurting my heart.

So I saw Whip It yesterday. I liked it. It was a fun movie - not amazing, but still good.

Directed by Drew Barrymore and starring Ellen Page, Whip It is about Bliss Cavendar, a 17-year-old 'indie' girl with a mother who tries to make her an elegant young lady by forcing her into many-a-beauty-pageant. Indie chicks don't dig that sort of stuff. Bliss stumbles across a roller derby event in Austin, and gets hooked on the idea of joining this motley crew of derby-rollers.... I've forgotten the name of their team. Sorry.

The film includes all the stereotypical archetypes of a teenage movie; I've mentioned Bliss already as the indie protagonist, and here she is pictured with Pash, her BFF - they work at this diner that sells this huge burger called the Squealer ... eat it in three minutes and it's free. Probably one of my favorite characters in the film due to her being one of the most fleshed-out, Pash is Bliss's one-man (woman?) support crew outside of the rollerskating team itself. She's your typical You-break-her-heart-I'll-break-your-face kind of best friend, and the fact that she can drive comes in handy when Bliss needs to get to the roller derby. They have their ups and downs throughout the film, as expected.

Then there's the *swoon* cute blond boy who can play the guitar and sing indie songs. This is so cliche it's cringe-worthy ... in fact, most if not all of the scenes between Bliss and Oliver are cringe-worthy. I fast-forwarded some of them ... let's just say that frolics in hay fields and underwater kissing scenes are not my thing. Unless they're in a film by Baz Luhrman.
The only bit between this clunky couple that made me smile was when Bliss and Pash first catch sight of the cute blond boy and Pash shoves Bliss almost into his arms, calling out, 'Don't say I never gave you anything!' At least she meant well.

Next up we have .... IRON MAVEN. The bad-guy, basically. She is unfortunately underdeveloped and her best move is shutting Bliss in a locker in one of their first meetings. Yeah.

Other stereotypical characters include the Mother-who-just-doesn't-understand-her-teenager, the Mentor - (a fellow rollerskater played by Kristen Wiig), the comic relief (yes, I'm talking about Drew Barrymore smashing her face into a pole and breaking her nose), and the I'm-joking-no-actually-I'm-not-but-that-was-sarcasm coach of the team.

So, I've said a lot about how typical the characters are, but the movie is totally a lot of fun. The energetic performances are complemented by a cool indie soundtrack featuring ... er ... a bunch of nifty bands I don't actually know anything about. Anyway.

There's a lot to like about this film. The leading lady is young, but she’s tough. The best part is the girls don’t cry when they get slogged in the guts. High fives all round for being tough cookies. But just three stars.

I don't think very many people read this blog ... I have five followers, not including my parents, so I'm going to guess I about nine people read this blog, with maybe three or four of them being regulars.

So, there's not many of you, but for those of you out there who are reading, I just wanted to let you know how awesome my friend Kristen is. She reads this blog, so that makes her awesome, but that's slightly from the point.

I've know Kristen since I was seven. That's ten years! That makes me happy. Kristen is awesome because she is my bestest friend, I can always count on her and tell her anything, and she loves me for who I am.

I hope you're all as blessed as me and have an awesome friend you can count on.

Kristen likes reviews. I like reviews too. So if I was going to review Kristen I'd give her ✭✭✭✭✭, 5 stars. Because she's just that incredible. In fact, I'd give her 6 but ... it just doesn't work that way....

I love you Kristy!

I found this on facebook. So, these girls are like, friends of a friend of a friend. Or something. Due to the fact that you can't really tell who they are because they're painted black, I'm giving myself the ok to post their picture on my blog. Personally I think it's an honor to appear here, so congratulations random iGirls, you have made it into Smash My Typo. Let's pretend that's a really cool thing.
