If you're not familiar with Lost , in the simplist terms, it's about the story of survivors of a doomed airplane crash and are stuck on a stranded island. In more depth, it's an incredibly written sci-fi series filled with amazing acting and addicting storylines.
Anyway, my favorite character, Charlie, is supposed to die. Desmond can see flashes of the near future and they all include Charlie's death. With each save Desmond makes, he gets a flash of Charlie's death that is even more complicated than the last. Desmond gets tired of being the constant saviour and tells Charlie simply "Life has a way of course correcting."

This is a terrifying article and disturbing example of course correcting. Plus the way this accident mirrors in some ways the show freaks me out even more

| "We need Kate and we need Leo and we need them now" - Liam Neeson, Love Actually |
[Mar. 19th, 2009|11:28 am] |
This is probably one of my all-time favorite movies. It's so cute, it's romantic, it's funny and I dragged my parents three times to see it in theatres when I was 10-11. I even made my dad buy the soundtrack so we could listen to it in the car. I loved Lindsay Lohan because she was my age and so confident on screen (side note: I really want her to be in a good movie again and stop being a coke head. She really is a great actress whose wasting her talent). I loved every single aspect about this movie, including the late Natasha Richardson.
I feel very sad about her death. She was absolutely lovely. Her accent was so freakin' beautiful. And she also married Liam Neeson, which had to be an truly fun marriage, because let's face it, he's badass. Ever since her accident all I can think of is Liam Neeson's character in Love Actually being depressed and hopeless. Something along the lines of this
He played the depressed widower so well that I know I'm gonna tear-up next time I watch this movie. What also sucks is Natasha was just skiing, on a beginner's slope, and walked away from the accident. She wasn't submitted in the hospital until she complained of headaches.
Crazy crazy world. But no one puts it better than the woman herself who explained after Liam was involved in a motorcycle accident in 2002 "I thought he was going to die. I no longer take anything for granted. Now I understand how fragile life is." |

So let's see...this spring break all I've done is run around like a mad woman trying to get everything to be somewhat bareable. It's hard to do when we've got three cousins staying IN our house that make messes and stay up until ungodly hours of the night, a sick mother who won't clean the kitchen/do laundry/go to the store which means I get to do all those things, a husky puppy that is not accepted by the three dogs that reside at my parent's and results in injuries for said husky, getting ready for a 19 hour round trip to Key West and the epic search for a swimsuit for that trip, dealing with a mother who is drugged and doesn't make sense yet still stirs shit when I'm just trying to relax.
However, I have found solace in the long walks with Hunter and the nice people we meet along the way, working on my painting and introducing myself to Gossip Girl online. Ah, simple pleasures :)
On a side note, my roommate and I aren't talking AND we are moving out early...April 30th to be exact. Can't come sooner.
Ohhh Key West, here I come!! Bring us your sun rays and good times because Lord knows we need it. |

My life is so strange. The guy I was dating fell off the face of the earth and doesn't have the balls to tell me why, whereas the one person who treated me the worst in highschool sent me a long-heartfelt apology and proceeded to ask me to lunch and talk to me for an hour.
Going to FSU in 4 days. Tally ain't ready for me ( biotch )
love youuu |

So, I finally have the personal peace of mind. but now I have to figure out how to break the news that will surely shake the foundations of a couple of "friendships".
oh, the tangled webs we weave. however, i find that talking to people who i was close with last year...or even seeing them for that matter, give me a sense of peace. i haven't figured out why. maybe it's because i greatly enjoyed my time with these people or that was a year were i felt more sure of myself than ever or because the drama was pretty minimal or anything.
i have urges to e-mail chris, hang out with frank, go to a park with tyler, talk all night with sean, engage in endless girl-talk with remi, eat frozen yogurt and watch movies: just me and stu, randomly IM doug for the hell of it.
i'm not sure how i got to this place where drama seems to be a constant but i'm sure as hell fixing it. i guess that's the beauty of going away to college: i don't have to care if i don't want to...because in the end, it may not matter if i chose.
no more being a doormat, no more hanging out with people who are fake.
This is my Sparta. And it's gonna be amazing.
ps: I'm bringing my camera to school this and next week. make sure i get pictures of us! |

I just saw those pictures the VT shooter sent to NBC. There's this one where he's pointing the gun right at the camera and looking through the looker-thing and you can see down the barrel of the gun.
I almost bursted out crying thinking about the fact that 32 people saw that image and their lives were gone a second after.
My prayers are with all those who experienced that...and I hope to God this psycho's death record will never be broken. |

It was pretty amazing. Great dinner, great friends, and a freakin' awesome date. You all looked insanely beautiful.
And the theme:( perfect )
My only regret about high school: the could have's. But hey, nothing's over until I let it, right?
Everyone I've met these past 4 years has made my life so rich. And I'm incredibly happy to have met them. There's not much time left...and for some reason I feel there's so much more to say. Probably because the reality is kicking in on who I'd actually keep in contact with after graduation. But I guess that's growing up...
Take care |

I'm not okay with crusie control. But I am okay with waiting things out. If what I want can't happen at this moment, then that's fine. Because I know that one day it will, and it'll be so much sweeter when it does.
I'm not bitter about what's happened to me the past six months.
I'm not upset about the fact that I haven't felt invincible in what's felt like so long.
I'm not turning my back on oppritunities...because none that I feel worthwhile have presented themselves.
I have no regrets. I love to live and live to love. And soon, the pieces will fall back together.
Until then, here's to you...it's your time. |

"My head is filled with questions and I can assure you
no answer to any one of them has ever brought me one
iota of happiness. Except for one. The one.
The only question I've ever wanted an answer to - is she the one?
The answer bloody well isn't forty-two, it's yes.
Undoubtedly, unequivocally, unabashadly yes. And for one week, one week in my sad little blip of an existence, it made me happy."
-Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Life is going. It's neither bad, nor good. Just keeps truckin' on. and I can't complain. |
