2 for 1

Thought it was time for another update....
I'm a bit behind in school, not entirely motivated either to catch up, although i'm really trying to keep my focus.
This weekend I saw 2 movies, Hostel and Memoirs of a Geisha.
Hostel- not so great. Infact a bit stupid, but still quite violent and gory, keeping up with the expectations of Mr. Tarantino. Some guy in the theatre actually passed out- fell flat on his face, and 911 was called. I missed 7 minutes of the movie during that commotion, and i might add- happily.
After the movie, my sister had suggested we stay to watch Memoirs of a Geisha, i thought she meant, maybe catch "Some" of the movie- nope.. after i came out of the bathroom, we just walked into Memoirs.. and no one said ANYTHING! the movie was starting in 30 minutes, and the thought of not having anything to drink, made me nervous. So since i'm a total genius, I simply asked a nice girl to borrow her ticket stubs, as i just happened to "throw mine out in the bathroom by accident"....
so we enjoyed movie number 2 with 2 cappucinos.. 2 movies for the price of one
-totally fantastic. And Memoirs of a Geisha- definitely recommend.. a fabulous movie :)

Christmas 2005

K, so these pictures are kind of late, but.. neverthe less...

Christmas was great- um.. short and sweet.

We celebrated it at my Aunt's house, as per every year, although i'm going to say that nothing beats Christmas- like a Christmas in Costa Rica. Not the case this year, but lets keep our fingers crossed for next year :)
