Movies all around

So, let's see what I did this week - did I do everything I planned to? Er, NO! :P But it was a good week! :D

On sunday, I went to the movies, but King Fu Panda was sold out! :(

Tuesday I went to the movies, but I ended up watching "What Happens in Vegas" with Cameron Diaz and Ashton Kutcher instead of "Prince Caspian". Cute movie, funny, and my friend kept telling me how Ashton was hot, but everytime she told me that, I thought "But, OMG, he is KELSO!" Yep, "That 70s show" fan here! :P

Wednesday night I worked on one of my extra shifts outside the medical residence.

Thursday was my second attempt to watch "Prince Caspian". Met [livejournal.com profile] weirdgirlie, had some Pizza Hut - gotta love their Pepperone! :P - and then...guess what we watched at the movies? Ta, da, taranan...yes, IRON MAN! RDJ FTW! XD

I sooooo wanna a Iron Man 2 or an Avenger movie, like, RIGHT NOW, so I can actually watch ANOTHER movie! :D Though..."The Dark Knight" would also do the trick - hell, it would be AWESOME! Is it July 14th yet???

And last night I finally managed to watch "Kung Fu Panda". It's a cute movie, perhaps one of the best Dreamworks 3D movies...but I still prefer Pixar! :P

This week! "Hancock" tomorrow - or perhaps the new Shialayman movie - and, again, I will try and watch "Prince Caspian" during the week - though now we don't have the subtitle version showing in theaters anymore, just the dubbed portuguese version.

One last thing before I go, though!

Got this from [livejournal.com profile] alphabet26

This is Entertainment Weekly's Top 100 movies of the last 25 years list.

That's better!

After last week's Heroes quiz result, I got one much more fitting to me! :D







What Hero on Heroes are you? (updated feb. 17)



You are Hiro Nakamura. He can teleport and change time. But sometimes he can't save everyone by simply turning back a clock. Recentaly his powers have weakend.Perhaps he will find that sword from Mr.Lindermen.Ando is his trusty sidekick. But Ando left with Hope (that girl who knows Lindermen). Hiro was taken away to meet Lindermen in the last episode. He has met: Ando, Isac, Nathan, DL, Micha, Peter, and the waitress (when she was alive if that matters).

*falls from chair*

I found a Heroes Personality test through [livejournal.com profile] ninth_wonders and, as I was answering it, I was SURE I would end up being Hiro or Peter. But to my surprise, look who I got! XD Not putting this under a cut because it's WAY too good for that! :P

Oh, happy day!

Today I went to my old job and the hag my old boss finally decided to give me the residence certificate I'm entitled to and release me from her evil clutches. I still don't have the paper on my hands, but it's close! She was the only thing preventing me from getting the paper, and now she finally had allowed for the paper to be made. YAY! Now I don't have to worry about losing my new and PERFECT - so far :P - medical residence because of that old witch! :D

Today I also fixed my car's A/C, to [livejournal.com profile] rjann, [livejournal.com profile] dabih - and all the others that usually drive with me - delight! It's too damn hot these days for me to drive with a broken A/C!

My mother gave me as an early birthday gift a chair for my computer - it's in black leather, with resting arms and small wheels underneath! So comfy! :D

Today was also a great day because I watched the latest episode of Heroes! Read more... )

DONE!

This weekend I took the last two exams I had to take - one was in another State, and I had to flew in and out of there, but it was a smooth trip. I need to check how well I did on those exams, but I'm having trouble catching up with you guys - 600+ entries to check! Just skimmed through it all, didn't actually read every single one of them or I would be still at it! XD

Oh, ane before I embarked on the plane, I bought "Eragon" to read on the plane. The beginning got me interested - so much I didn't want to study or sleep on saturday night, but to read instead - but let's see if it still keeps me interested throughout all the book.

I just finished watching the last BSG episode - yes, I know it aired on friday, but I was busy and away, I only just saw it. Let me say that I LOVE the fact that Lee and Kara's characters are back on track, and that the writers sure know how to make you care for a character even if you really hated him/her to begin with! :D They did it with Gaeta, and now again! Very nice episode - I missed Laura though!

And now, for a lack of better thing to do - actually, for the lack of WANTING to do anything else - I bring you MEMES!

England, silliness, terrorism, a xmas stocking and a personality test under the cut! )

PS: Do you guys know what "being finished with exams" mean? CATCH UP TIME! All those shows I haven't been watching, and all the other shows I want to catch up on even though I'm seasons behind, now I finally have the time to watch them! YAY! :D No Heroes tonight, though. :(

YAY! :D We spent saturday night watching season 2.5, and sunday watching FRIENDS, with [livejournal.com profile] rjann. He had never watched FRIENDS before, so, whenever there is a joke - no matter if it's a really good one or a silly one, all of them I have committed to memory anyway and are not as funny to me as a new joke is - he genuinely laughs, usually very hard, and with so much "gusto" that I can't help but laugh along with him! :D I love you, Rafa! ;) :*

Superman Returns Sequel Info and MEME!

YAY! More regarding the SR sequel!

While some "Superman Returns" viewers objected to the addition of an illegitimate child of Lois Lane and Superman (which never appeared in any of the comic books), Singer intends to proceed with that story arc. "There's a lot of room to go with that character and his upbringing and human background and Krypton heritage," he says. "He's the genetic material of both parents. Superman doesn't have that. It's hard to write for Superman. He's a tough character to create insurmountable obstacles for. This one is unique and insurmountable." For the sequel, Singer will be able to expand and play around with what he's introduced, and "bring in more of the energy" of the contemporary comics, he promised.

GAH! Headache, a running nose, sneezes, and my whole body hurting. I hate sinusitis. X|

However, I'm feeling a bit better today because I got a 4MB connection! XD YAY!

Now, a meme taken from [livejournal.com profile] llembas. She gave me the letter M! ;)

This is how it works: Comment on this entry and I will give you a letter.
Write ten words beginning with that letter in your journal, including an explanation
what the word means to you and why, and then pass out letters to those who want to play along.

1. Mara Jade!!! Jen, you KNEW I would start this with her, didn't you? XD Well, why I chose Mara? Because she is my favorite character from the SW EU, because SW was my first declared obsessionfandom, because she kicks some serious ass, because she can fly anything, because she is a Force User who ultimately became a Jedi and then a Jedi Master, because she married Luke Skywalker, and because she was the best person to be with our favorite farmboy! :D

2. Minerva McGonagall. One of my favorite characters from the Harry Potter books - my second declared fandom - and my favorite costume EVER! I love her, her teaching, her obsession with Quidditch, her love for Hogwarts and the students, her bickering with Umbridge! "Want a cough drop, Dolores?" Love that she lent her cane to Peeves to pester Dolores when she left Hogwarts!

3. Moonlighting. Man, I used to LOVE this show as a kid! At that time I didn't understand the concept of fandom - as a matter of fact, I don't think that fandom existed at that time - but I sure loved the show, how Maddie and David used to drive each other insane because they were soooo in love with each other, and all those times David spoke to the audience! Favorite episode was the one with baby!David! PRICELESS! *restraing herself from buying Moonlightning DVDs*

4. Metropolis. City of the newspaper Daily Planet, where the hero Superman works under his alterego, Clark Kent, and where he meet Lois Lane and falls in love with her! My favorite superhero, and soon to be on movie theaters again with Superman Returns! Metropolis is also an awesome classical movie, and the droid from that movie inspired the creation of C3PO, from Star Wars.

5. Mars! No, not the planet Mars - Veronica and Keith Mars! I have to say that I LOVE Keith, even more so than Veronica - she used to bug me a bit in the beginning for some reason, but she grew onto me. :) I love the show, though! ;)

6. Monica! And Chandler! I LOVE THEM! My favorite couple from FRIENDS, and one of my favorite TV shows! I also love her because I can relate to her and her obsessive compulsiveness! Besides, my boyfriend thinks he is as funny as Chandler! ;) XD *kidding, bb* ;)

7. Moulin Rouge! One of my favorite movies ever, with one of the most charming, fantastic, talented and handsome actors ever, Ewan McGregor! It's such a great romantic movie, and I love it despite its tragic ending - and I'm a sucker for sappy, happy endings! ;) Satine and Christian's love story is simply spetacular, come what may!

8. Mr. Darcy. Gotta love him, be it Fitzwilliam Darcy from the Jane Austen novel Pride and Prejudice, or Mark Darcy, from Ellen Fielding Bridget Jones diaries! However I have to admit that my favorite incarnation in flesh and bone of him is Colin Firth - in both stories! ;)

9. Mary McDonnell The actress that portrays Laura Roslin, President of the Twelve Colonies = well, what's left of them - in the TV Series BattleStar Galactica! YAY! I managed to put BSG on this! It was hard, I couldn't think of any characters whose names began with an M, until I started going through the actors names! ;) My favorite characters are Kara "Starbuck" Thrace, Lee "Apollo" Adama, William Adama and Laura Roslin! OH, and the Viper are WAY cool! ;)

10. Mother. Mother's day is on the way, and even though my mother will probably never see this - she doesn't like the internet much - I'd like to shout out "I LOVE YOU, MOM!" She is a great mother, one of the best, she not only does everything which is expected of a mother to do, but she also does everything we ask of her, and everything she does is thiking of us. Yes, even though she sometimes drives me crazy when she starts complaining about me, or trying to make my life decisions for me and such, or intrudes too much in my life, I do love her! :)

New Layout, VM, and Meme! (can't stop doing those!!) XD

I have a new layout, thanks to [livejournal.com profile] khallandra! It's SO beautiful, I'm in love with it! :D Go check it out!

After last weekend's Veronica Mars mini-marathon, I continued - or rather, went backwards XD because I saw episodes 1 thru 10 - with a new mini-marathon, this time with [livejournal.com profile] dtissagirl and [livejournal.com profile] jujubinha - who I just added to my f-list, btw! ;) *waves*

It's a great series, totally addictive! Even though Veronica annoys me - yes, she does. I thought so last weekend, but didn't want to voice my feelings before watching more, and now I'm certain of it. She annoys me sometimes. Especially in the flashblacks, when she looks like a Barbie Doll! ;) But even so, I like the show! And I TOTALLY love her dad! "Who is your daddy?" LOL!! And Weevil! He is a GREAT character and a great personality/character analyzer - or whatever it's called. I like him. :) He is sort of a bad boy, except he totally isn't! :D

So, now, I'm only 5 episodes away from the end of Season 1 - I skipped a few unimportant ones, but I do intend on watching them afterwards - and since I already have the last five here, thanks to [livejournal.com profile] dtissagirl...talk to you guys later! ;)

OH, but before I go...A meme! Five of my Weird Habits! )

"Chandler and Monica, Chandler and Monica!!"

Phew! I had quite a busy weekend and monday! I'm soooo tired...But it was a great weekend! ;)

Me, my boyfriend [livejournal.com profile] rjann, [livejournal.com profile] dabih, [livejournal.com profile] priwskywalker, [livejournal.com profile] nandaweasley, [livejournal.com profile] ricardosolo, [livejournal.com profile] radicool, and [livejournal.com profile] beta_jackman spent the most part of our weekend together, talking, laughing, playing PS2 - in the boys' case, as well as [livejournal.com profile] radicool and Nanda's (a little bit) - as well as watching Friends and Veronica Mars.

Yep. I finally watched Veronica Mars! And not only one, but four episodes. :) After all you guys talking about it, I had to! XD [livejournal.com profile] dabih and [livejournal.com profile] priwskywalker wanted us to watch it, and I was curious after all the praise my f-list has been paying it, and so we did - though beginning at episode 11 bugged me a bit and Nanda A LOT! But one of the funnier parts of the evening was Nanda complaining that she didn't want to watch the show and then, by the third episode we watched, she was rooting for Logan/Veronica as well as singing and dancing a routine for the show's theme song! XD Of course, on the next episode I had to join the routine, and we all laughed very very hard - but not as hard as we did when watching Friends' bloopers reel! My cheeks were hurting at the end! ;)

Now, I need to watch the complete first season of Veronica Mars - yes, the show is additive, and so far I think it's nice, but give me a few more episodes and we'll see if I also turn into a VM freak! ;) Who would have thought? Especially because I have a not-so-good relationship with Veronicas - my sister's name is Veronica and we annoy the hell out of each other.

Oh, and I just have to say that I love Enrico Colantoni! Since Just shoot me and Galaxy Quest! He is just so sweet! :)

[livejournal.com profile] dtissagirl, is your offer still up? I wasn't going to work this saturday, but now I have to, due to a stupid person who wanted to trade shifts and now that I did hers doesn't want to do mine...but we could try on Sunday - unless Priw sets up something to celebrate her birthday on sunday - I can't go if she does something on Saturday because I work then...*still pissed off at stupid and selfish work coleague*...but we can try and figure something out! ;)

Anyway, I was going to post all about this last night, but Henrique was going to present his graduation final project and [livejournal.com profile] rjann and I went - but Murphy didn't cooperate with Henrique and he was unable to present his project - though we did get to see the trailer to Fate of the Force, the SW fanfilm he is working on and that he used in his final project! AND IT HAD MARA IN IT! ;) XD MARA JADE IS CANON! YAY!

Now, the frivolous part of this post...Memes! )

Work, GoF (again) and meme!

Yesterday I had this beautiful post, ready to submit, but LJ was having a server problem, and was on read-only mode...and as I was waiting to post it, we had a power instability at home and eventually lost it, and my computer shut down. Luckily, I have a nobreak, otherwise I *think* I might have lost my PC...*sigh*

Anyway, last tuesday the new emergency of the hospital I work on opened, and we finally have air conditioning again! FREEZING air conditioning! :D AND the part dedicated to the more severe patients now is so much more better equipped! At least for the time being, while the new apparel - mechanical respirators, cardiac monitors - is still working. I'm a happy girl. :) I actually took pictures with my cell phone camera, I will try to post them here later!

I saw the movie again yesterday, for the third time, with my cousins Gabriela and Daniela. Dani is a great fan of the books and has read them all, Gabi only read up until the third one, but both enjoyed the movie very much. And I have to say that I love the movie more and more with each viewing, despite all the subplots and characters that were cut - I had forgotten about Ludo! XD - but I hate more and more Emma Watson...

Here is why... )

2. "The Chronicles of Life and Death", by Good Charlotte
3. "Best of you", by FooFighters
4. "Castle Hall", by Ayreon, from "Into the Eletric Castle"
5. "Valley of the Queens", by Ayreon, from "Into the Eletric Castle"

The following one wasn't created as a meme, but I'm turning it into one. List your (current) Top 5 Movie Scenes and tag 5 friends! Started by [livejournal.com profile] ricardosolo and followed by [livejournal.com profile] rjann and me!

5. From Bridget Jones, the final scene: "Good boys don't kiss like that!" "Oh, yes, they f*cking do!" XD

4. From Moulin Rouge, Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman "Elephant Love Medley"...also, the first time he sings "My gift is my song"

3. From Star Wars, two scenes, because I can't choose just one: "Luke, I'm your father" and "No, I'm a Jedi, like my father before me!" - although seeing the prequels, this scene gets ruined a little bit, because Luke is SO MUCH BETTER than prequel!Anakin!!!

2. From Gladiator, the scene with the following Maximus quote: "My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next." It gave me goosebumps!

1. From LOTR:FOTR, the scene when Boromir dies. I hated his character in the books, was mad because one of my favorite actors, Sean Bean, was cast as him, but fell in love with the character in my first viewing of the movie. AND his death scene? I cried so hard I was pratically choking!

I know, I didn't chose a HP scene, because I haven't watched GoF yet, and we are still 3 movies short! But, I guess I could say two scenes: Ron and Hermione's kiss almost hug ackward handshake and Remus and Sirius brotherly lovers hug! ;)
