My Oh My What A Wonderful Day

Last Saturday I went with the boyfriend to see this and absolutely had one of the best times ever. It's super funny and just cute all around. It's about this guy (Adam Sandler) who lies about being married to try to get girlfriends. But when he finally finds his "true love" he asks his assistant (Jennifer Aniston) to play as his soon-to-be-divorced wife to cover up the lies he's told his girlfriend, future fiancée. I highly recommend this movie friends! It will surely make you laugh. 

Tomorrow is going to be a happy day because I'm going to go hang out with some of my most favorite girls from work. We'll be having lunch together, then we're going to the movies to see "I am Number 4" (i hope it's good), and after we're going to Color Me Mime to pick out a piece of pottery and paint it. :)

And as if that's not enough, I'll be going to the Carl Bloch exhibition at the BYU Arts Museum with the boyfriend. Talk about a fun filled Saturday right!? And a much needed one because school has been assigning my weekends with homework for the last couple of weeks. So I am so ready for some fun!

What plans do you have for this weekend?

Finally!

I'm getting this today!

And I'm going to watch it, and re-watch it, and re-watch it.
I mean I only saw this THREE times in theaters.
Happy Saturday!

Dear John

So is anybody else excited to see this movie!?  I'm a freak for flik chicks.  I love romance movies and ever since I saw the trailer for "Dear John" I've been waiting for it.  Well, guess what? Today it starts playing in theaters! =D  I'm freakin' excited!  I'm totally going to go watch it!  I'm scared that it might not have a happy ending though; I'm so going to pack some Kleenex because I cry at just about every movie.  I still cry when I watch "Lion King I" I'm sorry, I can't help it.  I'm lame like that and well, don't forget... I am a girl. 

I guess I will be dragging my boyfriend to the theater this weekend.  ;)

Oh, and one last thing; Channing Tatum is such a hottie. 

Have a fabuloso weekend everybody!

New Moon

You know, I really hate going to theaters that I'm not very familiar with.  I usually go to Cinemark when I go to the movies but being that everything was sold out for New Moon we found tickets at another theater that wasn't as popular. 

I wasn't planning to go see New Moon the week it came out.  I wanted to wait 'till the crowd and fans died out a bit before going to watch it myself, but my boyfriend's aunt, which I consider her my aunt as well, called me in reply to a message I had sent.  Since my aunt and I love to go shopping on Saturdays I had texted early to ask if she wanted to go to the Mall with me.  So she calls back:

Tia Dani: "I can't go shopping because we're going to go the movies."

Grace: "Oh... you are going to the movies?" I was starting to feel a little sad because I had been looking forward to hanging out with her.

Tia Dani: "No, WE are going to the movies."

Grace: "Me too?"

Tia Dani: "Yes! we got tickets to the 3 o'clock New Moon showing."  To clarify, that was 3 p.m. not a.m.

Of course got excited because 1. I love to go the movies.  2.  I love hanging out with Tia Dani and her kids.  3.  I really wanted to see New Moon.  So I told her I would go and meet her at the theater after my hair appointment.  After getting my hair trimmed I speeded my way  to the theater because I was already 30 minutes late (thank goodness they were saving my seat).  When I entered the theater, I don't know if it was because I was at an unfamiliar setting but my eyes took forever to adjust to the dark.  For the life of me I could not see squat. zip. nada.

"Tia, I can't see anything..."  I whispered.

Tia Dani tried to guide me by taking my hand but I still stumbled up the stairs to my seat.  And then, she let my hand go. And I was lost...  I still couldn't see...  I didn't know where I was supposed to sit.  So in my struggle to get to my seat (wherever that was) I have no idea but I touched something or someone.  I thought maybe I had grabbed the seat or my aunt's shoulder or one of our other friends.  I squinted trying real hard to get a good look and I saw a gray patch of hair! Oooops! Wrong person!  I accidentally touched an older man's head!  Of course, I apologized as I tried real hard to hold my laughter in.  Finally, after what seemed the longest minutes of my life I was able to get to my seat.  Yeah, please call me graceful.

I really enjoyed New Moon although some of the scenes looked a little fake and the acting was a little rusty in some parts.  Nevertheless, I loved it.  The books will always be better than the movies in my opinion.  For those who haven't read the books, I would advice you read them after you see the movies and not before; you'll enjoy it more that way.
