a movie review. with some other stuff.

well i went to dallas to see rachel. (and if your reaction to this is "ugh, i cant believe you came to dallas and didnt tell me"... dont bother. apparently the distance from dallas to fort worth is entirely too far for some of you to travel. it's not too far for rachel so therefore i go to dallas to see her when i get the chance and not you.) and to see the last kiss. and now i feel that i must inform the masses. because i believe that the masses deserve to know..... do not. i repeat.... do NOT go see "the last kiss". i know that i was obsessing over it just a few weeks ago... but let me tell you... if there was ever a time for me to say that i was wrong..... it is now. it is an awful movie. i've never felt like that after seeing a movie. it's worse than Closer. i know some of you will go see it just because i have said not to. but i'm just warning you... dont do that to yourself. i will never see that movie again... unless i am feeling especially masochistic. i have lost all hope in people. in relationships. in the future. i know it's dumb for me to base loss of hope on a movie.... but the themes in this movie have truth in them. it happens everyday. it was a little too real for me. dont go see it. for all of you that wasted your money on the book "i kissed dating goodbye".....just go see this movie. not only will you want to kiss dating goodbye....you'll give it the finger!! i was just so mad after i saw it. like... yelling mad. i couldnt believe that i paid to see that. they should have called it... the last time you'll see this movie. or... the last time you'll believe that people are decent. even though i know jacinda barrett and zach braff are just actors...the mere thought or sight of them sickens me now. it's like....."i know you. and i know what you've done." however.. the soundtrack is outstanding. buy the soundtrack. skip the movie. rachel does an excellent job of reviewing this wretched movie as well.....

two stories now....

1) rachel astounds me. at the ripe old age of 23, the young lass did not know that deodorant is used to prevent you from sweating. it took about 5 minutes of me really trying to convince her that it was used for more than just making your armpits smell better. "rachel...what does "anti-perspirant" mean to you?"......and even then she was like .....'well...yeah...but......." she still didnt believe me. oh, and she also didnt know that nelly furtado was white. but that's a completely different story.

2) i live in ghettoville, USA. and to prove this to you i give you this story of the locals. so i'm driving to walmart....and there is a guy on the side of the road selling large prints. and one of them happens to be this one.....

except...since we are in the ghetto and all... it was the "black version" of it. i was a little offended.... i mean...come on....you would never see the "white version" of this painting.....


if either artist had wanted the figures to be black or white....they would have made them that way. i believe that making a white version of the latter painting .....well i believe you'd get yourself shot there.

let's talk about pressure for a little bit here.... in flight attendant training...it was never a guarantee to us that we would make it all the way through graduation. 12 people from my class got sent home during training. and now... for 6 months... the ones of us that made it through training are on what is called "probation". basically... i cant screw up or i get fired. since graduation.... they have given three people the boot. THREE! and we're only half way through probation. now that's some pressure. but you know what might be more stressful?? ....so i'm on this trip with this guy and girl a couple of days ago... and the guy says to me (i had never met him before).... 'oh i got so excited when i found out i was going to be working with someone named morgan because my fiance and i are about to have a little girl and we are going to name her morgan" .....oh well great. thats fine and all.... but now i have to put on my best version of "cool morgan" so he doesnt think that he is making a mistake naming his child morgan. i had to do the morgan's of the world justice. i mean... what if i was a total bitch on the trip and he hated me. dont tell me you dont associate people's names with other people you have known with the same name. for example.. i will never name my child brandy. i've never known a brandy who wasnt a complete ho. i will never name my child sarah. does the name sarah berg mean anything to you?.... anyone who knows this name knows that i'm talking about. i dont want my child to share her fate. or.... candice. candice blaylock tried to kill me in the 5th grade. (dont laugh. i'm serious) i know that girl has to be behind bars by now. you associate names with other people you know with the same name. there are other names...... let's just leave it at that.
