Children of Men movie: Graphic. Intense. Violent.

I update regularly if I think of it. Like right now, while I’m sitting up in bed, running out of sites to surf on the internet. I don’t think many people read this site like they used to. My “numbers” have gone down drastically. Perhaps it’s because I haven’t kept it up regularly since I moved to Ontario. Who knows. All I know is that I give my website out to a lot more people than I used to, that also could be a reason why I don’t open up and type most my thoughts on here, like I did in the past. However, that’s nothing to worry about now.

Scott and I saw Children of Men last night in the theatres. Graphic. Intense. Violent. Hard to explain, but it almost might be one of my favorite movies (even though I didn’t quite get the plot, until Scott had to explain it – stupid me). I didn’t think I’d like it though. Clive Owen is aweeeeeeeesome. I suggest you check out the trailer, if nothing else.

I’ve decided to use Oil of Olay regenerist on my face, lately (I used to think it was old lady face cream). Ontario’s weather has totally torn my face apart. It used to be so dry and flaky right before Christmas. So, with some Christmas money that I recieved, I went out and bought a little bottle of it. Works alright, I’m still a little bit red and splotchy in places, but I’m not as dry! Using it twice a day, I assume it takes a while to kick-in and do stuff. Crossing fingers.

Good night friends!

Back in ’07!

Well then. I haven’t updated in nearly a month. Mainly because I was getting ready to go home to Newfoundland for a little Christmas Vacation, that went by way too fast for my liking. However, I did get a few nice treats during the holidays – like a brand spankin’ new Nikon S6 folks! Hello new pictures, goodbye 7 year old webcam! I’ve been using a Canon for as long as I can remember, but all I seem to buy are lemons that break on me. The last one, I didn’t have it 6mths and the LCD screen went all liquidy. Sent it to Canon, they fixed it/sent it back – and it broke again! This time, it wasn’t my fault (well, neither were the previous times) but one of my drunken friends dropped it into her glass of beer, and it totally fried it. Whatever, $%* happens. I had fun with it, but I decided not to venture out for another canon, anytime soon. 2 cameras, 2.5 years, 3 breaks – definitely does not make me a happy Canon customer. I’m still getting used to the Nikon. At first my nikon was taking blurry AND grainy photos – until my Boyfriend changed some simple setting, and fixed it instantly.

Miss Erin, I have received your Christmas card when I got back to my apartment after my Christmas visit back home – thanks very much for that nice little note!

I gotta go get a couple of things done before I hold the monthly book club meeting which will be at my apartment this month – haha I’m so nerdy. Actually, I’m slack. I’ve only read one of the books and I’ve been in the club since July. We don’t really discuss the book either, which is good on my behalf ha!

Those devils we call high heels

I made myself the best supper tonight. Some roasted potatoes, mixed veggies and salmon cooked up. Didn’t take too long to make, thankfully. I was feeling really sick yesterday and part of today (and watching “How Clean Is Your House” isn’t helping). I dont know what caused it, I think there was a bug going around at work. I couldn’t take a sick day either… which has already been explained in previous entries. Grr.

I have my very last soccer game of the season, tonight. Le sigh. Too bad we couldn’t book a field for the January – April season. I spose I’ll have to tough it out and wait until the summer to join another team.

I bought my Christmas party dress last weekend while visiting my boyfriend. Looks some good on me! I’m also going to try and wear those devils we call high heels. Pray I don’t trip and twist my kneecap off like last time. I can’t wait though…too bad I don’t have a digital camera (I bring that up in every entry post, don’t I. haha!) otherwise I’d take a nice fancy picture of Scott and I, dressed up looking sharp. Oh ya!

I gotta go change. My team mate is picking me up since she feels bad when I get the bus. Nice hey? :)
