Yes, I know the title happens to be a movie quote. Spoken my the incomparable Robert De Niro in Taxi Driver. This happens to be a movie that I have never seen.
But it IS a perfect segway into what I will be talking about.
No, it's not about taxis. Or their drivers.
Not Robert De Niro, either.
But MOVIES. Yes, those wonderful things we watch as entertainment. Can be used to make us cry, laugh, smile, or just to numb our minds from our own dull lives. We go see them with friends in a theater and make a nice night out of it. We watch them with people in our homes, at a party; or alone, to make it a cozy night in with a beloved pet, blankets, and hot chocolate.
Wikipedia defines a film as "a series of still or moving pictures."
I define it as "Pure awesomeness squeezed into 3 hours or less. Usually."
Now go watch one.
I mean, who needs a social life? Not me. Not you.
You're reading this blog, aren't you?
Now go watch Harry Potter or something.
The inner-workings of an angsty, hormone-driven teenage girl's mind. Get ready.

Only Because I'm a Loser on the Internet
So I'm a bit of a loser.
I legitimately will choose to be alone basically all weekend, even when I am asked to hang out. Even if it's something awesome.
Yeah, this is my life. Except I have only one cat. And no laser pointer. But you get what I mean.

Most People's Perfect Day:
(may include, but is not limited to)
- A Party
- A Concert
- Clubbin'!
- Drinking (Alcohol)
- Scary Movies
- Staying Out Until The Sun Comes Up
- People
You get the idea. A good round of stylish, socializing, and cool fun. The key word being socializing.
My Perfect Day:
- A Good Book
- My Bed or The Couch
- My Computer
- Drinking (Juice, Tea, Cocoa, etc.)
- Disney or Harry Potter
- An Early Night In
- Alone with my Cat
The other day, on my Friday off from school, I was basically laying around in my room until noon. Then, around two o'clock, I decided to clean. Pretty spontaneously.
So, for the first time since I moved into that house about 5 years ago, I organized my entire room. Just for fun. It took almost 8 hours. I was working from 2:00 to around 9:30. At one point during the evening, at four or five, my friend called me to hang out.
Everyone was going to go see a movie or just hang around downtown engaging in teenage shenanigans. Mind you, very innocent shenanigans. The few friends I have are quite wholesome. :]
But I told her, "Well, I'm pretty invested in what I'm doing."
"Well what are you doing?" she asked me.
"Cleaning.."
Yeah, I'm that many lames.
That's me. Alone and friendless, except my cat and the people who have to love me like my family. And my cat doesn't even like me that much.
But that's the way I like it!

Links to Things
*Doctor What - A charlieissocoolike song. He's a british babe. Yeah. And its about DOCTOR WHO! Winning..
*MEEKAKITTY - When We First Met video. Its super cute and makes me happy inside. Its moments like when I'm watching this that you see the super girly part of me really shine.
*Video from mimmblemimmble. She is very deep and awesome. This video may lack some of the depth her other videos may have, but I love it. I identify with her SO MUCH.
*Nat's YouTube channel: communitychannel. I know, lame name. But give her a chance, hey? She's freaking hilarious. And Asian. And Australian.
*Pokemon Theme Song. 'Nuff said.
*A Day in the Life of Voldemort - KickThePj. Because he's just that cool.
I was bored and I wanted to post about unimportant things. These are not by any means my favorite things on the internet, though they are definitely among my favorites. And I wanted to make a proper rainbow. So I didn't add any more links after that last one. But hey, its Harry Potter related, which is pretty damn good to end with.

That One Show With the Asian Cat Family
You guys know that kid's show that used to be on PBS Kids? The one with the asian cat family who were also royal or something like that?
I have literally been trying to figure out the name of that show for several years now.
For the life of me, I haven't been able to remember.
Today, it occurred to me while I was uselessly trolling the internet, that I could use that wonderful tool to find out the name of the show.
I finally figured it out.
So, after many long hours dedicated to racking my brains for the name of that show (the best that I could come up with was "Sasha." Even though I knew that that was total crap), I have finally discovered it.
It's called SAGWA!

Introductions
I thought you might like to know a little bit about me. So here goes, but I warn you, I am very good at talking about myself. This might not even have an end.
I was born in the beautiful city of San Francisco, California. I have three siblings, and my parents are now happily divorced. (They got married on April Fool's Day. I kid you not.)
I hate when people use acronyms, and an excessive amount of exclamation points or question marks. Its very rare that a sentence really needs this many exclamation points!!!! Am I right??? and people who dont capitalize properly and dont use apostrophes also make me angry. I am basically your average grammar nazi. It's not like its really that much harder to type like an educated person. You can make people think that you are actually smart! You sly dog, you.
I watch many many nerdy things and yes, I do play video games. Pokemon was my childhood, the movies and the cards. Playing all Mario, Zelda, and Pokemon games is one of the many joys in my life. My favorite books include ALL Harry Potter books, Lord of the Rings, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Pride and Prejudice, and To Kill a Mockingbird.
My favorite class in High School is my Museum Management course at the Wildlife museum that is run by teenage docents from my school. This is the only program like this of this large a scale in the country, so basically it rocks. You should totally check it out. And then come visit. Maybe you'll be lucky enough to get a tour from yours truly.
I really, really, really love Europe.
I really, really, really love Provo, Utah. Believe it.
Sometimes I get sick. But then I stop being sick and start being awesome. (You get extra points if you get that reference.)
I am an amateur singer in an amateur band with two of the coolest guys you will ever meet. The other one is.. you know, okay. I can deal.
Ice cream and goldfish or cheez-its is the best tasting thing this world has ever seen.
You know that little song, "I'm a little acorn brown, lying on the cold cold ground. Everybody steps on me, that is why I'm cracked you see. I'm a nut. I'm a nut. I'm a nut, I'm a nut, I'm a nut." Yeah, well I'm a little bit insane, and that song was stuck in my head when I was creating this blog, so that's how the name came into existence. I know, deep stuff.
