Movie Link

So instead of taking notes in accounting class, I was playing Movie Link on my notebook. Rules are simple: name an actor or actress then name a movie they were in then name another actor/actress in that movie and just keep going until you can't think of anything else. Oh, and no repeats. I cheated a bit by using some TV shows but who cares. Here's what I got in 1 hour and 50 minutes' class time:

David Tennant > Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire > Helena Bonham Carter > Fight Club > Brad Pitt > Interview with the Vampire > Christian Slater > Heathers > Winona Ryder > Edward Scissorhands > Johnny Depp > Charlie and the Chocolate Factory > Noah Taylor > Tomb Raider > Angelina Jolie > Mr. and Mrs. Smith > Vince Vaughn > The Break-Up > Jennifer Aniston > Friends > David Schwimmer > Madagascar > Chris Rock > Everybody Hates Chris > Jason Alexander > Shallow Hal > Jack Black > King Kong > Adrien Brody > Dummy > Milla Jovovich > The Fifth Element > Gary Oldman > The Dark Knight > Christian Bale > American Psycho > Reese Witherspoon > Legally Blonde > Luke Wilson > Charlie's Angels > Drew Barrymore > The Wedding Singer > Adam Sandler > I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry > Kevin James > Hitch > Will Smith > Independence Day > Jeff Goldblum > Jurassic Park > Sam Neill > Bicentennial Man > Robin Williams > Jumanji > Kristen Dunst > Spiderman > James Franco > Pineapple Express > Seth Rogen > Horton Hears a Who! > Jim Carrey > Batman Forever > Michael Gough > Batman > Michael Keaton > Beetle Juice > Alec Baldwin > It's Complicated > Steve Martin > Bringing Down the House > Queen Latifah > Ice Age 2 > John Leguizamo > Super Mario Bros. > Bob Hoskins > Maid in Manhattan > Jennifer Lopez > Selena > Constance Marie > The George Lopez Show > Valente Rodriguez > 500 Days of Summer > Joseph Gordon-Levitt > Inception > Leonardo DiCaprio > Catch Me If You Can > Tom Hanks > Toy Story > Tim Allen > Christmas with the Cranks > Jamie Lee Curtis > Freaky Friday > Lindsey Lohan > Mean Girls > Rachel McAdams > The Notebook > Ryan Gosling > Young Hercules > Nathaniel Lee > 30 Days of Night > Josh Hartnett > Pearl Harbor > Ben Affleck > Daredevil > Jennifer Garner > Juno > Emily Perkins > It > Tim Curry > Alice (Syfy) > Kathy Bates > Titanic > Kate Winslet > Finding Neverland

And that's where I ran out of actors and movies as well as time. I must admit I am quite impressed at how big a list this is. I am quite the movie person!

Yes, yes. Believe it or not, I bought a dress. After church (which I did not go to), my grandma suggested that we go out to Thrift Town and have a look around. I haven't been there in quite a while so I figured 'Sure, why not?'.
Once there, I didn't really find much that I liked. I browsed through trinkets, tried on a football helmet and went through the kids' stuff. Nothing all that interesting. After going through the men's section, I found myself a clip on bow tie like the ones we used to have to wear back in band class in middle school. I was thrilled! Unfortunately, there was no price tag but I decided to keep it with me until we were ready to leave and ask for a price. I got bored after a while so I tagged along after my mom until I remembered that I've been wanting a dress so that I can cut and sew it up or whatever so I found this one:
(Trust me, my face looks better pixelated than not...)
The dress comes all the way down to my ankles which in a way is good. I plan to cut it to about half way down my thigh-ish and use any extra fabric for whatever add-ons I want to do with it. I actually rather liked how I rolled it up in the dressing room but I'm still thinking of anything else I can do. I'm thinking maybe adding white or black lace to the bottom so that calls for a trip to Jo Ann's so yay!

While at Wal-Mart, I remember that I've been wanting to buy a new memory card for my phone. I am pleased to see a 2 GB with a SD adapter card for about $10. I plan to buy it soon along with some new headphones.

Oh, and also, I finally got myself a calender. Excellent for writing down work days and other crap I hate. I wanted something cooler but it was only a buck so eh. Maybe next year.
