I finished both Bridget Jones books last night. I liked them both a lot, more than the movies (why couldn't the whole bit with Mark's line "It's all right. I realize I'm here. I don't think it's the sort of thing we should be keeping from each other," be put in the movie? I couldn't stop giggling over that line. And there were many others like that that I had wished had made it into the movie). And yeah, the second movie is nearly nothing like the book. But there are some things about the movies that I like more than the books. Anyways, I'm glad I bought the books.

I also watched Love Actually with the commentary on. hee. I love Hugh Grant just constantly bashing Colin Firth. They need to do a movie together (preferably involving many scenes with them fighting each other) and do a commentary on the movie together, because that would be excellent.

All Southern auditions tomorrow. I don't know how likely it is I'll make it, but oh well. Nothing more I can do than make sure all my scales are memorized.

School starts up again on Monday, and then I have two weeks and then it's finals. Eck. I wish my school was more like other schools and had finals right before winter break. It's such a hassle to be learning all this stuff, then take two weeks off, and then have to remember everything you learned before break in addition to learning bunch a new stuff for two weeks and then have to study your ass off. Especially since my grades are so borderline this year (well, ok, half my grades are. But I don't want half my grades to be B's), so I really need to ace some of my finals. I miss freshman year. sigh.

I am madly in love with Hugh Grant! Sexy! It feels weird being totally enamored with someone as old (not that he is that old) as he is. I remember I read the BJD books in one day as well. So good!

Heh, yeah, I really like him as well. Right now I'm obsessing more over Colin Firth, and I'm also obsessing over Hugh Grant, but it does feel very weird considering they're both 45 (they're actually only one day apart in age) and I'm only 16. They both could easily be my father.

The BJD books really are excellent. I had finished the first and it was like 10 PM then and I shouldn't have started the second, but once I did I couldn't stop, so I stayed up till like 1 AM so I could finish it. I really liked both books a lot. :)

goooooo. I actually meant Colin Firth, but I guess I typed Hugh Grant because I saw his name in the comments. I am a dork. I like HG, but I love Colin Firth better. I rented What a Girl Wants because of him.

I read the first during school, and couldn't put it down. I ignored the teacher's geometry lecture and everything, then finished it when I got home, then started like immediatly on the second. I love books that are hard to put down.

Heh, yeah, that's what it is for me. I enjoy Hugh Grant a lot right now, but I'm definitely more obsessive over Colin Firth. I haven't seen What a Girl Wants, but I saw that he was in it and it's almost enough to make me want to watch it. Someday when I'm bored enough I might actually check it out and just fastforward through all the non-Colin Firth parts.

Heh, that sounds like something I'd do. I'm glad I was able to get the books during break, though, so I would be able to finish them both quickly.
