The French Kissers

I went to see The French Kissers after work on Friday, and must say that it was one of the best teenage-orientated films that I have seen in a long time. To begin with, it was freaking hilarious and captured the essence of being a socially awkward teenage quite perfectly (and, might i add, brought back some terrible memories of being 15 myself). The indefinite ending and spineless narrative merely added to the actuality of the production, making it just a snippet of reality as opposed to a glamorized version of teenage life with the classical hollywood narrative that resolves the big problem that was brought up in the opening scene. It wasn't a film that took reality to its extremes. It didn't portray teenage life to be more excruciating then it perhaps was/is, or on the other hand portraying it to be an idealized time of one's life. In fact, I must admit it, atleast for me, it was/is both. It showed that being a teenager is just a time for growing up, experimenting and finding your feet (as cliched as that sounds, its a diffilcult task to capture on screen and something that has been achieved here). I'm just hoping that French school life isn't the same for me, as im hoping those days of being a socially awkward teenager are behind me. Or, perhaps, that's part of the experience of it all. The French Kissers is showing at Luna Cinemas from Boxing Day onwards with advance screenings over the current weekend.

On a side note, zee mother still hasn't installed the internet into my new house yet (currently babysitting my ex-next door neighbors and stealing their internet), so im still internet-less... sorry!! i just bugged her continuously to get it installed BEFORE xmas but with her you never really know when she's going to get it done >.< good news is, i have a whole pile of updates (like a bazillion) that ive taken over the past few weeks, so ill be able to upload them in one whole hit again! hope the internet world isn't missing me too much, because boy am i missing the internet world!

I just snapped up a job at Tiffany & co until I leave for France. I applied because my other employer David Jones were only giving me 2 shifts a week, so now i have two jobs (and tossing up whether to terminate David Jones). My sister gave me some gorgeous Tiffany & Co. pearl earings as my graduation present, which i will take snaps of when i get back home (still stealing my friends internet, ill be here until tomorrow!)

ps. sasha really steals the show in this campaign!

eeep

okay, well i totally did not stick to my one-post-a-day for the month of december promise. sorry ^.^ i do have a valid excuse, i moved house and now have no internet access! (right now im stealing my friends computer, so i cant even upload any pictures cause there is none :( ) the reason why i used to post so much is because at the school i went to we had laptops, so during class instead of studying i'd just trawl tfs and other blogs and then post straight away. but now i semi have a life (kinda, not really). new posts soon, hopefully...

im moving house today, so packing up my room into boxes and shizz. im wearing a trashy oversized denim shirt that has come straight from the 90's. my fringe is too long. i havent had coffee in a long time, and now this one is making me sick. my mum doesn't know about my tattoo so i have to take my hair out when she comes home. and its a million degress down under >< i just changed my phone into french, so now the keypad is all french-like and with accents and shiz, i actually kinda like it. aside from that, i'm actually pretty good
