Star Wars

SAT. MAY 21

Well yesterday was a fun day of shopping. I ended up getting 2 CD's (they were relatively cheap):
Destiny's Child-Survivor
Celine Dion-These Are Special Times (A Christmas CD)
Plus I also got a cool toque because it's getting colder and it's a cute toque (cream with pink stripes) and I thought that since NZ is warmer than home i didn't bring a toque with me. so i bought one. what? it works for me.

Plus we (as in me, Graham, Mark, Matt, Stacey and also Ray, Dan, Jamie, Joel P., Hannah Maria, and Matt A. came in Bingo) also saw "STAR WARS EPISODE III: REVENGE OF THE SITH ". It's an awesome movie. It's the one where you see Anakin Skywalker becomes Darth Vader. It's really good. The music is superb. Since I have one of the Star Wars soundtracks already I knew exactly who's music theme is whose like "oh, that's Ben's theme. And oh, that's Luke's, and the Darth Vader theme." so that kinda made me miss band cause we played the Star Wars theme song but that's ok.

I think one of my fav parts in the movie is where Yoda walks through a door to talk to Senator Palpatine/Darth Sidious and he throws two Sith guards against the wall. It's pretty funny! Plus Yoda just rocks! Plus the part where R2D2 lights 2 droids on fire is pretty sweet too. After
watching Episode III it makes me want to watch all 6 of them now. I think I'll have to have a Star Wars fest when i get home. You're welcome to join me if you want.

After we watched the movie we went for 50 cent ice cream cones at Burger King and guess what I saw? There was an ad for the Star Wars toys for the kids meal. so of course I felt compelled to get a Kids Meal. At first I thought that they didn't give me a toy, but then i found a Millenuim Falcon under my chicken nuggets. And yes the Millenium Falcon is in the 3rd movie, I didn't see it but Mark and Matt saw it landing on one of the hangers in the movie. And my toy even lights up! That's sweet. Apparently the Yoda toy flips around, so I wanted that one but the Millenium Falcon still rocks :)

there's another group going from school to see Star Wars. Joel was even playing the Star Wars theme song on the keyboard to "get in the mood". Oh speaking of the keyboard, yesterday Mark (on keyboards), Jordan (on guitar), and Ray (on bass and drums) played Phantom of the Opera for me. I even got it on video. It's pretty sweet1 Ray was even trying to do a techno type beat with the bass and drums and even though you can't really hear in on the video I know it's there ;)

Well I"m kinda bored right now and I"m listening to Destiny's Child. I can't wait to get home (whenever that will be) and just belt these songs (plus of course POTO!!!) in my car where no one can hear me. That's kinda why i wouldn't mind giong a couple road trips by myself because
then I could sing. But then again road trips are always better with friends. Even though the 1st one that I ever went on really only lasted 2 hours because our car broke down. But it was still fun :) So ya, I really want to go on some road trips to North Carolina (to visit Becky), to Calgary & Winnipeg & St.Catherine's (to visit friends from school) and then of course from S'toon to Spalding to visit my girls :) So ya.

I've also noticed that lately I've been interested in girly music like Destiny's Child, Kelly Clarkson, Britney Spears and Celine Dion . I don't know. I guess that's just my new phase. Plus i like girly music. I figure you can never like too much girly music. Plus it's fun to sing to :) This may sound really weird but it helps my singing voice to sing along with girly music. I mean I probably can't sing at all, but it's just fun to pretend I can ;)

Well since me, Dan, Jana, Mark, and Nikki really didn't have anything else better to do this afternoon we went bowling (10 pin) in Hamilton which was pretty fun. Mark beat us all but Jana was a close second. I even got a strike and that made me feel special.

The group of Capernwray people that were going this afternoon just got back from seeing Star Wars and they also loved the movie :) I think yet another group is going tonight. I"m listening to the soundtrack right now because I really didn't feel like listening to Celine Dion and everyone that just saw the movie can't stop talking about it.

All day I've had the Imperial March theme (from Star Wars of course) stuck in my head. Just now me, Stacey, Ruth, Ray, and Bethany all went into town and shopped around at Countdown and the Warehouse. We even had a sing along in the car which included such songs such as "Stop" by Spice Girls, the Imperial March theme song, and Ice Ice Baby. Oh and at the Warehouse they had a whole bunch of Star Wars toys like a Yoda acton figure that moved itd mouth when it talked and a Darth Vader helmet that when you pushed a button said Darth quotes such as "Don't make me destroy you!" and "You don't know the power of the Dark Side!" I wanted it however it was like $80. Which totaly sucked but that's ok i guess.
