Lots of stuff to catch up on...

Aw. I haven't posted in like... three weeks. :(
Let's see... what's happened?

I found out New Moon's release date: November 20, 2009.
The day before I turn fifteen. How cool is that? :)
I found out Eclipse's release date, too: June 30, 2010.
That's only... seven months after New Moon! Which makes me have a strong feeling that Eclipse will really suck. Because they'll only have about... four months to film, edit, and complete. :(

Hm. What else?
OH! The Oscars! ;)
Yeah. I watched the Oscars on Sunday.

Here's the winners of some of the really cool awards:
Best Picture: Slumdog Millionair
Best Actor: Sean Penn; Milk
Best Actress: Kate Winslet; The Reader
Best Director: Danny Boyle; Slumdog Millionair
Best Animated Picture: WALL•E
Best Supporting Actress: Penelope Cruz; Vicky Cristina Barcelona
Best Supporting Actor: Heath Ledger; The Dark Knight

Really the only highlight of the Oscars was Heath Ledger winning. Because I never saw Slumdog, Milk, The Reader, or Vicky Cristina Barcelona. So I didn't really care about those. I just saw WALL•E and The Dark Knight out of the movies that won anything. Oh. Speaking of TDK, it also won Best Sound Editing. So... yeah.

Hm. There was something else...
Oh, now I remember. :)
The cast list for the school musical this year (Guys and Dolls) got posted today. I'm not in it, but all my friends are. :) And my friend Marie got one of the lead roles, Sarah Brown! I'm so happy for her. She wanted that part so bad, and she really deserves it. :)

But since all my friends are in the musical, I'll have to go to it alone. Joy. Unless I find another random friend to go with. Hopefully, I will.

Well... I have to go babysit in less than an hour. So... bye!

Facebook and Birthdays!

First of all, I changed the layout to something a bit more Valentines-y and less January-y.

Okay. So, yesterday I went to a family birthday party. It was for my little nephew, Kayden, who's sixth birthday was that day, and my older sister, Camille, who was turned 29 the day before. It was at Camille's house. Camille and her family (husband Zach and kids Gavin, Bradin, Chanse, and Rylee) were there (of course). Kayden's family was also there (of course): my brother Gil, his wife, and their other two kids Brant and Kadee. And then my neice Shaylee was there and my nephew Trevor. And two other people who I know but always forget their names. :)

Anyway, it was way fun.

Then when I got home I found out that my friend Marie had gotten a Facebook page and wanted me to get one too, so I asked my dad is I could. And he amazingly said yes! So, I did. And I'm now addicted. It's just so much fun. :)

I started looking up random people I know and found a lot. Most of them were friends, but I also found my sister Camille on there and my sixth grade teacher. And then, since I was bored, I looked up my friend Erin. She and I were best friends back in fourth grade before she moved to Alaska a month before school ended, and we lost contact. And guess what. SHE WAS THERE! I was so excited, and I sent her a message, asking her if she remembered me. I haven't gotten a reply yet, but that's okay. :) I'm just so excited that she's there, and maybe we can be friends again.

Ah, the magic of Facebook. ;)
