if my english teacher could see me now...

we're gonna try and do this post without any capitalizations, just for the hell of it. i'll need to stamp down my grammar nazi in order to do it, however.

i did indeed watch 'phantom of the opera' yesterday. i'd forgotten how much i enjoyed it, although i will admit to some commentary from time to time. such as when carlotta began to sing "think of me" and they panned down to the phantom in his lair, my mind flashed:

"meanwhile, down under the opera house, the phantom's ears are bleeding."

i also remember what i had originally thought when i saw this the first time in the theater. specifically when the phantom is first leading christine down into his lair, i remember i thought, "damn! he's hot! forget raoul, i'd do the phantom!!"

the series i mentioned yesterday is called "saiunkoku monogatori." i actually had to write it down so i could remember how to spell it...

i think my itunes is hooked into my brain. yesterday and wednesday it would play all my favorite songs.

someone from the church is supposed to come by later on today to pick up some things for the garage sale the youth are going to have tomorrow. i also have to pick up my prescription sometime today.

yesterday a friend of ours was in town and mom went out to dinner with her. i would have gone, but the red tide hadn't ebbed very much as well as my stomach was kinda revolting. i didn't want to attempt mexican under those circumstances. luckily, she came by afterwards and stayed for almost two hours and we were able to talk. i also have such a good time with her, she makes me laugh.

as for this weekend, i have no idea what i plan on doing. i guess it's up in the air...

trivia of the day: a racehorse averages a weight loss of between 15 and 25 pounds during a race.

EVERY time I watch PotO I'm always in the phantom-is-way-hotter camp XD He is SMOKING. PHEW

[snapdragon76.livejournal.com]

Oh YEAH!! Even with his mask off I'm like, "Please, he's just got a burn. He's still hot..."

And I love your icon...

I can only watched selected scenes because.........

[dracschick.livejournal.com]

parts of the movie really bother me.

Basically, though I liked the three leads, I didn't like:

1. Phantom lives at Opera House his entire life. I prefer a more travled Phantom. My Phantom character would win in the duel:)

2. I didn't like Driver

3. I didn't like the fact that Christine mouths "I love you" to Raoul before kissing the Phantom. I prefer a much more ambigious relationship between Erik and Christine. The movie weighed heavily on the side of Raoul and Christine.

PS--I don't mind you taking away capital letters. Just don't do 'stream of consciousness writing'. I don't know if I could read that.

What's wrong with 'stream of consciousness writings'? I think that they're great! But, perhaps that is just me, because that's all I ever do is 'stream of consciousness writing'. Also, I have no comment about Phantom of the Opera. Sorry. I can't wait to see "Silent Hill" though. Which I'm sure not many here would see, being as how it's a 'horror'.

Randomness: This has nothing to do with your post.

Hey snap, I just realized that you're a leo too! That's neat.

[snapdragon76.livejournal.com]

Well, you're a bit more biased than most because you've been such a hard-core fan since the beginning anyway, it tends to color your perceptions.

I think Driver did pretty good because she was unlikable. Carlotta was supposed to be unlikable.

I caught the whole "I love you" bit myself when I watched it again due to a comment someone had made on your journal.

I think she means they can be a bit disorganized sometimes and hard to follow.

I doubt I'll be doing anything like that, mainly because I like to have some sort of coherency to my posts...

[snapdragon76.livejournal.com]

I thought you knew when my birthday was? Hmmm...

Yep, I'm a Leo. I like being a Leo. I'm also a Dragon according to the Chinese zodiac. I really like being a Dragon.

Don't mess with me, man. Rawr!

[zelamenomiko.livejournal.com]

Mwahahaha, I thought the same thing, though I've been obsessed with the Phantom ever since I was REALLY little, and seeing Gerard Butler play him . . . YUM.

[snapdragon76.livejournal.com]

Totally...

You and my friend dracschick would get along excellently in that regard...

[zelamenomiko.livejournal.com]

I flipping LOVE that icon. *cackles*

*snort*

cleolinda and her m15m(Movies in Fifteen Minutes) are responsible. She's freakin' hilarious. You need to read the write up she wrote on 'Phantom'. I swear to you, tears will be streaming down your face.

Go! Go now!
