Wonderland?

Why would Disney ever think of making another Alice in Wonderland? I mean every little kid had seen the original one, so what’s the point of making a new one? Well turns out it's not the same… at all. In fact I doubt any kid would understand it and it's not a very happy fairytale anymore. First of all the movie is made with real people not animated characters, second the wonderland we saw as kids is gone, destroyed by some evil queen. And remember the mad hatter? How he was slightly crazy? Well now he’s completely lost it! And it's a little confusing. Oh and the reason Alice is back isn’t to drink tea with the hatter or to play with the smiling cat, nope, she back to kill a monster! So yeah this is a very different movie from the one that was made 60 years ago (I had no idea it was THAT old!). This new movie has a grim feeling to it, and I didn’t like it very much. Maybe it's because I was expecting a cute and happy movie or maybe I’m attached to the old one. Anyhow I would still recommend people to go and try it out, but if you don’t like it don’t blame me! And now as the mad hatter would say “When that day comes I shall futterwacken... vigorously.”

GG!

“Gossip Girl here, your one and only source of the scandalous life of Manhattans elite.” Yeah that’s right it's finally back! After what seemed like an eternal break between the seasons, well it was just four months but it seemed like way more. So for the people out there that for some reason doesn’t know what GG (Gossip Girl) is about I’ll tell you the basics. It's a TV series where these super rich girls (and others not that rich) fight, party, and shop; oh and of course date a bunch of really cute guys. Every so often they go to school but just for the gossip and drama. Who would know that being in an elite group could lead to so much backstabbing and lies! Ok so maybe that sounds boring to some of you and you’re wondering why is she wasting her time watching this?! Well first of all there are about 2 MILLION girls, (and maybe some guys… you never know…) in the world that watch GG so it can’t be that boring and the reason we watch it is simple we love drama! And it's so much better when it's not happening to anyone close to us that way we can actually enjoy it without feeling guilty. So yeah the reason I wrote about this is because season four started last week and today I get to watch the second episode, yay! I’ll write again soon! “XOXO Gossip Girl” J

Hey Bloggers!!

         As one of my first English assignments of the year I have been asked to start a blog. And yeah it sounds like fun, until you start seeing the words drafts, rubrics and all that grading material. But somehow I’m actually looking forward to seeing how this is will turn out. In the end it sounds like it’s going to be a pretty cool project. Today I’m going to introduce myself. That’s supposed to be the easiest part but what can I say that will make “blog surfers” really want to read this? Well I’ll try my best…

         I’m a student at an American school in Venezuela. It’s my 11^th year here and even though there are ups and downs I really like living here. Yes, I know that’s weird since most people complain about things but, I think anywhere you go there are things to complain about so why point them out? That’s not going to change anything. That’s my view of complaints anyways. In my free time I like to watch TV series, most of them would probably be listed under the drama genre, they were all suggested by a really cool friend of mine. If I’m not watching a bunch of crazy series then I would probably be on Facebook talking to someone or just looking around. Another thing I like to do is listen to music. I don’t have a favorite genre here; the only one I probably don’t listen to very often is rock. I’m an extremely shy person and it takes a really long time for me to open up. But when I do I completely trust that person. Something that really annoys me is when people aren’t considerate. I don’t like it when people say or do things without thinking about how it may affect others. Not only with people but also with the planet, there’s no reason to have the lights turned on when there’s no one in the room even if you’ll “be right back.”

         Since its part of the assignment I’ll probably be updating this like twice a week, but I’m not sure yet. Most of the time I think I’ll be talking about what went on in one of the TV series I watched or maybe I might write about what I did during the day which is sometimes a little overwhelming. That’s just due to the fact that I’m currently in the JV girls’ volleyball team, I’m waiting to re-join ballet and I also have to go to this thing called school. I will also probably end up talking about any trips I make or any events I attend to (if I attend anything). I’ll try my best not to make this a boring blog but I can’t promise much. Oh and I hope to improve my writing, grammar and I’ll try to be as creative as possible even though I lack a little in that area. So how’s that for a self-introduction?
