Grade: A++

Anyone that knows me knows that I love this movie. I've loved it for a long time and I've probably watched it 30 times. It's one of my very favorite movies and everyone who has seen it knows why. It's an amazing movie (and I'm also obsessed with everything Titanic, so that helps a little). But the story, as well as the beautiful graphics of the ship that look so real, is amazing. The movie is about a rich girl (Rose), who is on the ship with her mother and her evil fiance, and a poor boy (Jack), who is only on the ship because he won two tickets in a lucky hand of poker. They meet on the stern of the ship when she tries to commit suicide and he stops her. Over the next two days, they fall in love, even though she keeps warning him that it probably won't work. But, of course, their love is doomed, as is the ship. When the ship sinks, they try to get to the lifeboats but most of the people in the water can't. As much as I don't like a sad ending, this was probably the only "realistic" ending. Anyway, the movies is great...although it probably isn't for everyone, I love every kind of movie, and I always give movies a chance. So, if people do that for this movie, instead of just ignoring it because it was the biggest grossing movie of all time, I think most of them would actually like it...plus it has Leonardo DiCaprio....I'll take him over some blue guy anyday.

Friends

So, I pretty much have the best friends in the world. I know everyone says that, but it's actually true. Now that one of my best friends is working, it's pretty hard to get together. So, between my pretty hectic school schedule, her working schedule, and my other friend's rock climbing schedule, it sucks. But when we hang out, we have so much fun. We make videos of us goofing off and we make parodies of movies and shows. Anyway, that's what I wanted to talk about today. Kind of boring, but I'm in a boring mood....the only thing that takes the boredom away is watching my favorite show about other friends, which is correctly titled Friends. Chandler Bing = the funniest (and my favorite) character ever. Phoebe Buffay = crazy and awesome. Joey Tribbiani = the epitome of cool. Rachel Green = what character had more stylish clothes or better hairstyles? Ross Geller = kind of whiny but I loved his relationship with Rachel. Monica Geller = the character I relate to more than any other character...ever. Anyway, that show rocks. :)
