Well it's not exactly news, but I do have a lot to write about xD It probably won't be as long as it could be though because I have 3 films to watch xD
So Friday night was Max's party, and it was damn good xD The boy has a maaaaassive house with 4 living rooms and a sauna... He's minted xD I didn't get that drunk, well I did at the start but I let myself sober up, for once I decided I didn't want to get so drunk I'd regret it the next day, a lesson a certain Ms. Rutherford might want to learn xD At least she didn't throw up :P
His house was soooooooooooooo messy the moring after... Me, Paul, Mhairi, Sarah, Steven and Michael all stayed to help him clean it up and even with all of us helping, when we left it was still a state xD There was about 6 or 7 bags just full of glass bottles and and a good few more bags full of normal rubbish xD I'm glad I helped though, otherwise I woulda felt sooooo bad.
That night me, Paul, Mhairi and Steven decided we'd go into town for our tea and got ourselves a Jimmy Chung's. Everyone made fun of me because I ate so much so quickly, but I was hungry so it was worth it xD Then that evening we all went to the good cinema because Sarah works there and got us all in for free. We went to see Hancock but I didn't mind seeing it again because it didn't cost me a penny xD
Not done much today though, I've just showered and ate something, that's all...
Well, something eventful did happen (as anyone on MSN just now will know xD)... I was in the shower with the radio on and Music from the Movies came on (it's a competition where the DJ plays a song from the movies and you text or email in what movie it's from). After a couple of clues I had worked out what movie it was from and decided that when I came out the shower I would email in just for the sake of it. So when I got out the shower I almost forgot about the whole thing because apparently the whole way through my shower I was flooding the bathroom and the whole floor had a layer of water on it xD I don't know how I managed it, but I cleaned the whole mess up without anyone in my house realising what I'd done, even with the carpet in the hall soaking up a fair amount of water as well xD
Well when I had cleaned it all up and got dressed I remembered about the competition and thought that I might as well just enter it, so I did. The song was Danger! High Voltage by Electric Six by the way, and the clue that put the nail in the coffin (I am loving that phrase right now xD) was "the movie starred Lucy Liu, Cameron Diaz and Drew Barrymore". So I emailed the manny saying something like "And the answer iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis... Charlie Angels 2: Full Throttle! Or at least I hope it is xD" and my details, and then a few minutes later on the radio comes "And well done to Iain MacKinnon from Barnhill who is today's winner from Music from the Movies!" xD
I was soooooo happy xD Woulda be slightly happier if I could find someone else who heard him say it, but winning was good enough xD Apparently I've won Ultrabeat's album and Sam Sparro (that's how Amazon spells it...)'s album. Not exactly amazing prizes but that won't ruin my moment :P
So there ya go folks, go listen to your radioboxxes and enter the competitions, because real people do actually win the prizes xD
I'm away to go watch the From Dawn Till Dusk trilogy now so I'm ending this blog on a high :D
Byeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Mr Smith, Mrs Smith, and Mr John
Brad Pitt can actually act! All be shocked! 'Cause I really was...
Apparently having a relationship with your co-star, albeit a secret one at the time Mr and Mrs Smith was made, helps you act. Wasn't a stunningly memorable film, but it was good fun to watch, and it actually got my mum to sit and watch the last half hour with me, even at 2 in the morning :D
Also watched Ice Age and Ice Age 2 today and yesterday, I'd never seen them before, at least not the whole way through, and their not that bad, I actually laughed out loud a couple of times...
Watched Kingdom of Heaven today as well, the director's cut. Except when it comes to this movie the director decided to add an extra 48 minutes to the movie taking it well over the 3 hour mark ¬¬ And that included a 3 minute interval where the screen's black and some music plays xD Orlando Bloom's a letdown as usual, but some of the other actors are pretty good, especially Ed Norton, even though you never actually get to see his face, the filthy leper that he is!
Saw Elton John tonight xD My parents had a spare ticket and I thought that I might as well go for it, 'cause I'd regret it afterwards if I didn't go :P So away I go off to Perth and he wasn't actually half bad, especially when he announced "I'll be right back folks, I'm away for a pee!" half way through xD
Matthew was right, I did know a few more of the songs than I thought I would. I went in thinking the only song by him I know is Are You Ready for Love...but there was a few more I knew bits and pieces of. I really didn't want him to sing Sandal in the Bin but he went ahead and did it, thankfully with the original lyrics (or so I think anyway xD).
Aaaaaaanyways, I think I'm away to go to bed now, the deleted scenes are about to finish and I'm going to try and help with the housework tomorrow to get on my dad's good side, not that I'm on his bad side, I just want to get even more on his good side xD He's the one who doesn't think I should be charged rent for this gap year, so I'm sucking up to him a lot xD
Night night folks!

Sleep
I really need to start getting more sleep... I keep falling asleep with my laptop on me xD It's not very elegant and it's annoying when you're trying to watch a film or talk to someone on MSN xD
It probably has something to do with me not going to sleep untill well after 1 (it was 3 on Sunday night) and then getting up at half 6 for school... Then when I get in from school I lie on my bed all comfy and cosy with my laptop and just kind of drift off xD My mum came and spoke to me earlier and told me to tell my dad something but because I was half asleep I haven't got a clue what it is xD
Amy MacDonald just came on :D Gotta love This Is The Life :D Admitedly it's the only good song by her but I ain't gonna reject someone just because their musical career has only produced one song worth listening to xD
You know what's annoying? The fact that we're off school on Friday. It makes it seem like today is a Thursday so I get all excited that it's a new episode of Lost tomorrow then I realise it's only Wednesday so I've got 2 days to wait ¬¬
SPOILER WARNING FOR JI YEON, SEASON 4, EPISODE 7 OF LOST
Speaking of Lost, how amazing was last week's episode? :O I knew it was coming and it was soooo predictable that Michael was gonna be on the freighter but when he actually appeared I got so excited xD I'm not ashamed to admit that I actually screamed when he popped up xD He was in the episode earlier on too... but I doubt many people noticed that... When Desmond and Sayid are on the freighter's deck watching the woman commit suicide if you freezeframe the group of sailors on the deck you can see him amongst them half-hiding behind his hood. That reminds me... I need to go have a lookie over at Lostpedia to see if there's anymore trivia about the episode on there xD
How cool were the flashes too? Because the producers said in the Official Lost Podcast that the last 2 members of the Oceanic 6 were gonna be shown this episode I assumed that it would be Sun and Jin so I went on the Lostpedia article for the Oceanic 6 after watching the 1st part of the episode and when Sun's face popped up and Jin's didn't I kinda knew something was up xD Damn producers tricking me xD Really good idea though, make it seem like it's the same flashforward from 2 perspectives when it was really a flashforward for Sun and a flashback for Jin. Also, how damn sexy does flashforward Hurley look in a suit? xD Gotta love that guy (even my desktop background is a picture of him xD). But that final scene... with Hurley, Sun and Ji Yeon and Jin's grave... how sad was that? I was crying and everything xD One thing though... the gravestone said that Jin died on the day of the crash so here's hoping he's actually still alive on the island :D
SPOILERS DONE
Suppose this should do for an enty xD Seems pretty long and I don't want people to get too bored xD
So bye for now...
