O M toystory!

toy story 3: it made me laugh, it made me cry, it made me really want to hang my new toy story 3 poster above my bed. i sat in a movie theater with erica for almost two hours before the movie started playing, (stupid messed up films.) and waited patiently in the very first row for the movie to start so we could go get better seats on the steps. but, as luck would have it, about 4 families decided to pack up 10 minutes before they told us when they were going to actually play the darn thing. so we got great seats for watching the action. and speaking of action...

warning, will contain spoilers. great jokes, scary villains, and it stayed true to the first two movies. this was an amazing movie, for us that saw toy story 1 in theaters and those who saw it for the first time on blu ray (big kids/adults and little kids). buzz fell for jessie all over again, twice, and was hilarious in spanish. woody and andy made some tough decisions (mainly woody, of course) and the beginning was captivating. i was hooked from the adorable pixar short until the credits. i cried at least three times, (i dont want to see my favorite characters in the world struggling and getting hurt, thank you.) and laughed like a criminal whenever woody wasnt pushing me to tears or the monkey making me avert my eyes. he was pretty terrifying, until he was covered in tape. i crossed my fingers and bit my lip when the toys were faced with a fiery death, and was touched by their love for each other and andy. this was a really great movie, and im glad i got to see it before anyone else, which was pretty exciting. and of course, such a neat and tidy ending cant result in a 4th movie to spoil it like was done to shrek. how could they add anything? thank you pixar, for yet another perfect film.

and, also, the short was just adorable. its not something you can describe, so go ahead and see it for yourself. please do, youll enjoy it.

shrek

well, this is the longest blog break i've had in a while, which is pretty pathetic. but, to blogging. i watched shrek 4 on sunday, and i can say completely honestly that it was horrible. the characters that were important in this movie and extras in the others were drawn in completely different ways, which is driving me nuts. i mean, rumpy-stiltskin was my favorite character in the 3rd movie, and the pied piper was cute in the first, but in the 4th they were annoyingly different. and the plot didnt fit in with any of the other movies. they didnt include anyone from the 3rd, more or less, and they were cocky about selling their movie. i mean, even if it stood alone i didnt like it that much. the 'finding your true love' thing was very messed up. the first was is and as alway will be the best. and that goes for all movies, and a few books.

i havent done much writing, actually i havent done any. and every one i know is a dense, irritating, miniature beast of burden. which, of course, makes it all that much worse. and then camp. ah, camp. cant wait, even though the forced sonnet i wrote (for school; hence the 'forced') suggests otherwise. i think ill post it, even though it is vaguely terrible. i dont like sonnets.

My sole retreat, my home away from home.

I just wish Ramah was a bit cleaner.

The pool hates my hair, too much for a comb.

Though it’s better than here watching Dreamer,

Toilets clog almost every day here.

No one is quite sure what is in the meals.

Poo is left like a gift by all the deer.

Really wish I could get a better deal.

Maybe a camp without the horrid smell?

Maybe if the mold wasn’t here to stay?

Though they gave me the flu, the nurses mean well.

It’s where my friends are, but is there a way

For me to stay at Ramah with my friends

And eradicate the stench that never ends?

im sure you love it. im not saying i do, cause i dont, but ah well. i think i have to read it aloud in class tomorrow. fun.
