“A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream together is reality.”- Paul McCartney

I was looking for some water color paint brushes and then I found these. KIMBERLY brand name water color pencils. I’m such a loser, that I got really excited and bought them. It was my dad’s birthday and I painted him a picture of his Jeep. Thats why I needed some more brushes but then I found the pencils. I thought he would put the picture in his garage. Mom bought a frame, of course instead of being in the garage its now in our living room. (sigh so embarrassing.) I painted it for him because he really loves his jeep. He calls it Midnight/Old Betsy (strange right? eh) I told him that Midnight sounds like a name for a male horse and Old Betsy sounds like a cow name. So I told dad that I it makes his jeep sound like a transvestite. But whatever. Which made me think. Why do men give their boats,cars, motorcycles, instruments (in my dads case his jeep and Bar-B-Q) names? I mean I don’t name anything…. well I did name my stuffed animals. -_- So maybe this is a mans version of a stuffed animal. (I am so weird) Well anyway because of Hurricane Ike dad has to work in Houston. He is working on getting peoples lights back on. He stays at his brothers house in Sugar Land because its too long of a drive from home to Houston. He would be too tired to do that. My poor hard working dad.

School starts again Monday for me. So hopefully things will be getting back to normal. The Mall still hasn’t reopened.Ok well I along with my cool water color pencils I also got Sims life stories. I love Sims. I have always wanted Life stories since it came out, and I finally got it. YAY! Because I was busy evacuating on my birthday I couldn’t really celebrate turning 19. So I went out to eat with my mom and sisters. And then we went to Best Buy where mom and Mija bought me KODOCHA season 2! Kodocha is my favorite manga and they made an anime of it. I love it! On the way home from Best Buy it was so dark. Street lights and traffic lights still don’t work in some parts. Well I’m gonna gonna watch Kodocha now.

I just recently watched a brand new adaptation of E.M. Foster’s A Room with a View. And I am currently watching the 1985 version starring Helena Bonham Carter, as Lucy Honeychurch. (I love names from the 1900’s) Is it me or does she always have interesting hair styles? I love watching movies like these, it makes me want to read the novels thinking they would be much more exciting. Don’t get me wrong, movies are wonderful I do love the 1985 version much more than the newer version. The most interesting character in my opinion is Eleanor Lavish. She was a novelist who wrote down the passionate kiss between Mr. Emerson and Lucy in her novel. (Thanks to stupid Charlotte who told her). Now during this time gossip was their entertainment. Like we have television, they have gossip. Now of course in the 21st century, we have our share of entertaining gossip and drama. But in the 2oth century it was much more widespread.

It another part I’d like to point out from the movie, which made me laugh was when Cecil kissed Lucy for the first time after they were engaged, and she was expecting something more knee weakening then what was given. lol Don’t we all expect our own George Emerson’s to sweep us off our feet with passion and lust that leads to a romance we hope was caused by fate. No? Helpless romantics eat crap like this up. Sadly I am one of them. A trait no doubt handed to me due to the fact that I am a girl or so I am told. And I am in no way saying men can’t be romantics in their own way. No sexist beings here, I might add.
