''If We Can't Save The World, We'll Avenge It''

Iron Man. Thor. Captain America. The Black Widow. Hulk. Hawkeye.
Ohmigod, I'm turning into such a nerd. I absolutely loveeeeeee The Avengers, new Marvel Studio's film that just came out, which I watched yesterday! Á cause d'aniversaire de une de mes meilleurs amis Inês. Wow. French skilllllz! (Don't know why I just did that.... Blaaah.... I'm hyper right now :D) Um yeah, back to the film. I really enjoyed it. I love superhero action films so much and this one was like 'la crème de la crème' 'cos it had SO MANY supes in it! :O YAY! I really can't decide who was my favourite... Iron Man, funniest quotes ever (''Motherfuckers''). Thor, OHMIGOD how can you not LOVE him.... A) hes really cute B) like so hot C) OMG those muscles and D) I'm, like, SO jealous of his hair. It's beautiful. And ''He's adopted'' drove me to hillarity. Captain America is soo sweeet 'cos he's so loyal and stuff... The Black Widow, what can I say... Interrogating is an art I guess.. and she's so awsome when she fights obviously... Hulk just ''smashes'' everything... and Hawkeye is AMAZING. I love him 'cos I live people who shoot with bows and arrows and who can shoot on target without even looking (wtf??).. And I hadn't seen him in anything before but I loved him from the begining so I was really annoyed when he turned to the dark sidee! Got so much more to say but this is already one massive paragraphh!
In other news. I regularily watch The Voice UK and there are some really good contestants. I love Beck Hills, Francis, Leanne, Max Milner and - OMG, WHY DID HE HAVE TO GO!!??? - Bill Downs. He is amazing. His duet/battle with Max 'Beggin'.. just wow. (<-- click the LINKK!!!!) I think those two shud just  become BFFs and sing together for ever and everrrrr! Love, love, love the harmonies, which Bill is like a pro at. I know this because, I have now been stalking Bill. Watched all his videos in one go on youtube and am obsessed. He's really cute and he sings really well and he's also really nice and I think he shud get rich and famous and succesful and happy and I think he shud dump his fiancée and marry me instead. (It's actually legal, I researched it. Girls are allowed to marry at age 16 in most countries!! ;D) So yeah there is a little evil streak in me... but still: O:)
Had my German aural today and hope to get about 120% 'cos of course I was brilliant :) This means tho that I had to go into school in study leave which is like :(.. But I was there with minha amiga melhor, Laura, who actually thinks she is hilarious, so it was ok. Pff.... I just think she is a really very strange little girl. And sometimes she's retarded and then thats funny for me :D (Dude, you know I love you..) It results in stuff like this:
Me, Laura, Me, Laura
I'm trying to keep it short todayyyy! Make sure you check out Bill and his youtube channel HERE! And make sure to laugh at my dear little Laura being a spazz. And, oh! yeah!! I'm so excited 'cos Pretty Little Liars, True Blood and Geordie Shore are back in the beginning of june... GET IN THERE!

Now Playing:
Better Days - Bill Downs ft. Arnob (No idea who he is and I just which he would piss off.. No offense tho.)

When High School Is Over I Will Be King

Sooo, first week back from holidays. Yay, school. Yay, exams are coming up. (In case you havent noticed: I am being sarcastic right now.) I haven't started doing any hardcore revision or anything yet. This might or might not have to do with the fact that FINALLY Dead Reconing arrived. Yesss....! I loveee the Sookie Stackhouse novels so much!! I am so happy that it is finally here. I am reading it when ever I can, actually I am having a competition with my mom, about who finishes first. Both of us reading it at the same time makes things slightly more difficult but I am ahead of her, even though I am 'doing revision' etc. :P
I have DONE my first official GCSE exam. A portuguese aural, I think it went OK, even though I made a few reaaally stupid mistakes. And I will have my nest exams, Art and a German aural on monday,... Joy. I love Art and it is probably going to my favourite exam, but there is SO much work to do till the exam!! Seriously. God, I don't even want to think about it. I haven't done anything but Art all day. -.-
When High School is over I want to take a gap year and go traveling or something like that! And then go to Uni in England prefferedly. Do Art.. My favourite Uni is Leeds at the moment cos their entry requirements for Art are quite high and I want to challenge myself!
The title of this post is also derived from me watching Ametican Reunion yesterday in the cinema with my friends. SO funny. And for once there was someone in the cinema who laughed louder than me! I went with my 3 best friends and Yes it is incredibly pervertive but it is also soo funny. My dear friend Inês will forever have a photographic memory of Jason Biggs' penis. :D  I mean it was the first American Pie that I have seen I must confess but I will deffinightly catch up now. I especially loved Paul Finch and Stiffler (who doesn't). Stiffler is abslotuley hilarious because of his unbelievably blunt attitude to life. He kind off lacks an appropriateness filter. Come to think off it, he reminds me lots of my BFF Laura :) She has that 'problem' too. And then Jim's dad and Stiffler's mom hooking up is also hilarious. I thiought they were perfect for the roles because I think they are both incredibly comedic actors.
Appart from all of that my life really hasn't been very interesting. :(  As I said before I have been spending most days in art after school and then doing more art when I finally came home. And then on top of that doing the rest of my homework. In that sense it is actually quite good that my free films/series hosting site is really annoying at the moment. At least I didn't get distracted. Appart from this morning when I watched The King's Speech. (I'd forgotten about that until just now!)
I loved the film. I knew I would because my dear Inês, again, told me that I would, and I thought that Colin Firth made an amazing stammering king! Aside from him there was also Helena Bohem-Carter, who has already proven herself to be an absolutely amazing actress in Harry Potter obviously. But those two together gave a perfectly regal couple, and they could not had been more royal if they actually were aristocratic. I really liked watching the relationship forming between Lionel and Bertie, and how they helped and hurt eachother. And I knew from the beginning that they would be life long friends. It was also a really weird thought for me to think of someone else being on the throne on Brittain before Elizabeth II. And in all the history lessons I have had on WW2  there was never any talk about any kings etc..
Actally I had a really embarrassing encounter yesterday. Totally not royal. The day before yesterday I left school and I put my earphones in and there was a good song and I was kinda hyper so then I was kind of dance/skipping along and I thought that no one saw me. But then yesterday I leave school normally cos people are there and my iPod ran out of battery and the guard askes me ''no music today??'' and he ;)'s at me and then he does this weird impression of me. OMG I was SO emarrassed! I go really red when I'm embarrassed cos my skin is so light so I was litterally as red as a rasberry. :S
I do not plan on keeping up this weekend posting thing, but I thought that I wouldn't have any time monday becasue of a fricking 10hour art exam. So now I'm posting early. I hope that next week will be more eventfull and less embarrassing. So 'till thenn! Bye XX

Drag Queens and Easter Eggs

Heyyy BABES! I'm back from Britain! Went to visit my relavives in the Easter hols again :D
It was so much funnnn! First I went to see my Granny who lives near Dover (southhhh England!) for 3 days and then my lovely aunt and uncle and cousins - 21 and 26 years old - who live in Kent. Aside from that I went up to my cousins flat in London for a night and we went to a bar-slash-restaurant calles Circus which was really cool! We saw a gymnast doing CRAZY things on his hands on, like, stick-thingies and a singing Drag Queen which really left us guessing what sex SHe was. Click HERE to see pics of some of the cool stuff that happens there. :) (I can't put any pics on here unfortunately -.-)
I aslo went to see two art exhibitions in those ten days. The first one was Turner, and I was amazed to see Rodin's The Kiss there. Like, seriously, it's one of my favourite sculptures ever. I was like: ''Ohmigod, thats the KISS!'' O.O
The other exhibition was in the Tate Modern, Damien Hirst. I was sooo happy that I was there at the right time. It opened on the 4th of april, and it was so good. Lots of people critcize Hirst for killing so many animals for his work. But I think that A) he didn't even kill those animals, he used dead ones in the 1st place and B) people who say that sticking dead butterflies on a canvas isn't art, I have to correct you. Have you SEEN what he does with them? The Gate to the Kingdom of Heaven seems to be a stainglass window at first glance, but turns out to be a black canvas covered in reflective butterfly wings. I think it's deffinightly one of my favourite art pieces ever. SO BEAUTIFUL.
And I get that some of his 'art' is gross or unusual, and I dont find decaying dead cows heads very beautiful either, but in these cases it is more the idea behind the isntallation that makes it into an art piece. Hirst celebrates life and death in his art and makes BOTH beautiful.
OK, enough on art. People who don't like him, please take no offense in this - my mom also doesn't really like him - but please keep your oppinions to yourselves and let everyone else enjoy life (and death) and art.
I shopped alot and ate in different amazing restaurants and now officially declare Tai to be some of my fav food. I also watched a lot of Sex and the City (I know: old.. But stil luv it!) as well as Take Me Out (No Likey, No Lighty!), Crazy Stupid Love and Changeling with Angelina Jolie.
Changeling is an amazing, but sad story about a woman who's son is kidnapped. The police find him and give him back to her but she knows he isn't her son. As she is refusing to be convinced that this is her son the police send her to a psyciartic clinic, saying that she is mentally ill against her will. It turns out that her son was killed by a crazy psycopath serial childrens murderer, but later she is given hope as evidence iss found that her son may have escaped. I quite liked this film, and even though I get its based on a true story I think it would have been better to have a happy OR a sad ending rather than the way it was, it just didn't feel finished to me.
Crazy Stupid Love is a really good film, with an amazing twist at the end. Seriously, I would have never expected that to happen but I really liked it! The film starrs Ryan Gosling, who I liked for this role because he had just the right amount of good looks funniness and cockiness, and who I was glad he did it because to me it seemed like he'd only ever done really weird films (except for The Notebook) and I think such a fit man shouldn't be weird. Emma Stone was in it; like because she's funny, dislike because she's just not that pertty. And Steve Carell who was funny for the part and was perfectly geeky for his character, but he is turned into a womanizer and then he really should have been more attractive than he was.
While I was in England I frequently lisetened to Radio 1! So good, so much good, new music and exactly the right amount of talking and humor. I love Grimmy, Annie Mac and Fearne! I got 18 new songs from 10 days of listening! O.O WOW! BOOM! FIREWORKS!
Happy Late Easter Everybody! XXX
