the music is all around us...

August Rush.

Cutest freaking little kid ever!

GO RENT IT. Oh my heavens, it was AMAZING. I absolutely, positively, 100% was blown away. It makes you ache for poor Evan/August, and it makes you want to cry with him and celebrate with him and hold him until he finds his mom. It's so, so good. Music is completely put into true perspective when you think about what August says...he feels it. He loves it more than food. I understand exactly what he means...amazing. Pure genius. Freddie Highmore, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Keri Russell, Robin Williams, and Terrance Howard. Don't hate.


Today was shop-until-you-drop day with mi madre...we hit up all the stores worth going to, and i ended up with lovely black lowtop converse, which I've wanted/needed/craved for months, but I couldn't find them in my size.

Easter easter easter....the bunny of fun comes tonight. Hooray? I wish I was in more of an Eastery mood, but it's hard when there's 15 inches of snow on the ground and it's 30 degrees out. Oh well, at least we went to church tonight (wonderful beautiful service, byyy the way) so I can SLEEEEEEP IN tomorrow!


I watched Titanic (sap.) last night with my mom, because it was on TV and I had nothing else to do, and as I was alternating between envying Kate Winslet's hair and lusting after Leo, my mom went all deep on me and was like "love...you know, love is the most amazing feeling in the world. It's...being in love...it's amazing. It's amazing and it's overwhelming and it's completely worth waiting for." Oh, mom. You sap. No really though, I was thinking about that and...you know, you always know these things, but once someone important to you says it as fact, it becomes that much more poignant in your life.

I have to go put cotton all over my house so my brother thinks Mr. Peter Cottontail really exists. I'm seriously having a not-creepy love affair with August Rush (the movie, not the kid). And Jonathan Rhys Meyers. YUM.

Yum. I mean seriously. Jonathan never ceases to deliver ...
