Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father: prepare to die. Now, offer me money.




Stayed home to care for my two sick brothers and actually I am feeling rather ill myself *cough cough* No, seriously, I didn't get a wink of sleep last night.
Erm, okay. Oscar Nominations were released today. Finding Neverland got nominated for
7
Oscars including Best Picture, Best Actor in a Leading Role (Mr. Johnny Depp, ladies and gentleman), Best Score (The score was simply beautiful), Best Film Editing, Best Costume Design, Best Adapted Script...crap, can't think of the last one.
Anyway, other nominations included Clint Eastwood (for Actor and Director), Leo DeCaprio (Best Actor), Jamie Foxx (Best Actor - hey!), The Aviator (for a ton of things), and such. The Aviator (staring Leo D. and Kate Blanchet) took 11 (not as big as our 7) nominations...like Lord of the Rings last year. I am very disappointed Mr. Marc Foster didn't take a nomination for best director, but nonetheless, I am very pleased with what Finding Neverland did recieve. I wil keep you ALL updated on Oscar crap (whether or not you want to) until the big day which is Fed. 27.
Anyway, sorry I haven't been writing. I've been extremely busy with everything, but I hope you enjoyed my French post the by way. Sadly, I must retire for the moment because I have to write two peoms for english. As a creative writing exercise, I feel there is way too many restrictions and that limits the creative parts. Plus this whole thing is a group project, and again, that just murders creative writing. Oh well, I'll see what I can do. I might not stop at two poems, but might write 7instead.
Need to make up a science test tomorrow...heh...
Oh, before I do close, I promised MJ to recall some of the things in our Science class yesterday. Enjoy, and I am sure you can see why I feel like i am LOOSING brain cells in that class. It's fun though. Thanks guys! And, I would like to note, I may have added a phrase here or there, but it's baiscally all true. I'm not mentioning any names for their own protection...
- What do the people in Brazil use to fuel their cars?
- Brazil, Italy?
-Sure.
- Gas. Duh.
-Actually, they use ethane.
-What's that made of?
-What IS that made of (we've only been studing about it for the past two weeks)?
-Uh, bananas.
-Bananas. Why?
-Because there are a lot of them there. Well, there is some here too, but not as many.
-There is a lot of water, why don't they use that?
-Because they are dumb. Actually, that's a brilliant idea...to run cars off of water. Or wait, sooolar power...or batteries!
-You would need more batteries than you could ever comprehend to run a car. (Me - what? like 3?)
-No, we could use DURACELL (*) because they are long lasting, the offical partner of NASCAR, and the new and improved copper top.
There you have it! Oh and I remembered the last Nomination for Finding Neverland (apologies)...Best Art Direction!
