'It's like the fog has lifted, and at last, I see the light'
I've had an insane couple of days since I last posted. On Thursday I went into the city to see pebblegosling before she heads off to the beach for a while, spent about an hour at home before going to meet another friend who I haven't seen in a while, another half hour at home and then heading off to the show. Not sure if I've mentioned this specifically amongst all the excitement of actually playing in it, but it takes me an hour one way to drive there. It's kind of exhausting.
Yesterday I went to the movies to see Tangled with harpisan. Much-needed silliness ensued. After the movie we got coffees and tried to escape the heat for a while, and then headed back to her place so I could 'help' her clean out her wardrobe. Not sure I helped very much - but I did end up with a gorgeous coat that she was getting rid of, as well as a cute red skirt and 2 cardis.
The movie was amazing. I loved it so so so much. It was so cute, the animation was so damn pretty, and it was very funny. I loved the way they characterised Rapunzel - sassy but naive. It was adorable! Also, the chameleon was probably my favourite. Or the horse. The horse cracked me up like nothing else.
And the music!!!! Disney, you've done it again. LOVE LOVE LOVE. Well, the score was composed by Alan Menken sooo.....
I can't stop listening to 'I See the Light'. <3
Kudos to Mandy Moore, by the way. Never been a huge fan but this really suited her - and ironically, she was voicing an 18-year-old, but sounded so much more effective than she would have when she was 18.
In short: if you haven't seen it, do. You'll be doing yourself a favour.
I'll just leave you with some stills to show you how pretty it is to make myself stop rambling.
I love it when animated movies do this. Look at the actor who plays Flynn...
Tehehe. I can so imagine him doing 'the smoulder' XD
"You broke my smoulder"
Oh one last thing that I found so amusing. Sign of the times: 'and then it's like 7:15' ... oh dear. That is a song lyric. xD
So here's some more of the meme for you. This part is only difficult because there aren't enough spots for all of the people I would list if I could.
DAY01: Ten things you want to say to ten different people right now.
DAY02: Nine things about yourself.
DAY03: Eight ways to win your heart.
DAY04: Seven things that cross your mind a lot.
DAY05: Six things you wish you’d never done.
DAY06: Five people who mean a lot (in no order whatsoever).
harpisan
snuggle_monster
pebblegosling
Ame
My family (yes, cheating and lumping them all together)
DAY07: Four turn offs.
DAY08: Three turn ons.
DAY09: Two images that describe your life right now, and why.
DAY10: One confession.
Alright so now I probably won't be able to post until at least Monday. Today and tomorrow promise to be utterly insane. There are two shows today, with dinner with the orchestra between them. As well as snuggle_monster coming to the show tonight, and possibly meeting me a bit early to chat for a while. I've promised myself I won't pike out of drinks tonight - I have fun when I do but most of the time I'm so fixated on getting home that I can't be bothered. Before I go I'm going to try and pack away the masses of clothes strewn across my room (actually, I need to do a clean out myself). Tomorrow is closing night ... afternoon. So it's bump out, pack up, not that I'm sure exactly what we orchestra people have to do, and then an after party. I am going to crash so badly after that!
But yes, off to clean. Bye!

I was really impressed with Mandy Moore - I was a fan, back in the day. Ahahaha.

So was I! Even more so because I wasn't really a fan of hers :P
