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.

Hey. Agh school, im sorry.
I started on Thursday which is shitty and makes no since.
Why not just start on a fresh new week? Well good luck. It sucked for me because I had two new semester courses; Dance and Health. So I had to leave a bunch of my friends that I don't have in any of my other classes. It pisses me off but oh well.

By the way, I wish I got as many comments on my journal as you do. I don't have very many friends here!

Stereophonics "Maybe Tomorrow" is sexy.

Hehe, sorry for the spam but it bugs me.

LOL, I was amazed they managed to put Hugh Grant's character in the 2nd movie and make it seem natural. I remember seeing the trailer, and going, "Hang on, why is he there!?"

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!

I love Love Actually! Haven't watched it yet with the commentary on, but I'll some day next week.

School... hmm I start on monday too. I have the same thing as you, two weeks school then finals! that sucks, like you said you have to refresh your memory for the finals. In high school they had finals in between classes, so that you could remember all the stuff you learned. Now you learned stuff, go on a break, forget the stuff you learned, go back to school again and then you have finals. So you have to study real hard to remember all the stuff you learned in class. Such a hassle, that's why I dislike studying now, when before I didn't really had a problem with that...

i always find films never do books justice which really bugs me! They always seem to leave funny lines out! I've read the first bridget jones before the film came out and i loved it. I should really get back to reading the second!

The commentary for Love Actually is hilarious! I love it so much.

Looks like some more books to put on my read list ;) Glad, you enjoyed them.

Wishing you all the luck in this world to succeed sweetheart *huggles*

Sounds like you´re a hardworking student - so good luck on studying for the finals!!!

oh I should watch LA with commentary on. I love it when Colin Firth and Hugh Grant bash each other, they're so in love (lol).

yes, the books and the movies have nothing in common, esp. the second movie (though I think it was still funny). So which book do you like more, the BJD or EOR?

[turnyourankle.livejournal.com]

Wow the books ordeal went fast! They are quite easy to read though that's true. I love so many things in the second book that never made it into the movie (oh the hole in the wall would have been awesome) but I guess the whole meeting Colin Firth might have been hard to squeeze in.

I don't like Hugh Grant so I don't think I'd enjoy the commentary, haha. I know a guy who's exactly like him, so he bugs me most of the time.

I adore Love, Actually, and pretty much every actor/actress in it is amazing. I've never watched it with the commentary before though.

[voleusedenuit.livejournal.com]

Ok now I must re-watch Love Actually with the commentary. I can't believe I haven't done that before!
