quesadillas and juno

irene and i went to eat at poquito mas at westwood + olympic before catching juno @ the landmark theatre in the westside pavil. my food was delish, as always (the cheese quesadilla kids meal, which they gave to me at the kids price-- sweeet). way too many ucla kids there though.

juno was abs adorb. on top of being witty and hilarious, it had THE AWESOMEST MUSIC. seriously. side note: maybe i should just go to see "indie" films to listen to the music. despite a few annoyances with the guy sitting behind me who. kept. kicking. my chair. (ps. buddy, if you can feel me pushing my chair back IN RESISTANCE against yr foot, i'm PRETTY SURE that you should take it as a sign of annoyance. just venturing a guess.) tangentttt. okay. what i wanted to say was that the film was fantastic. def lived up to the hype. i still can't get over the fact that jl spears went to see that movie when they announced her pregnancy. weird.

school is intense! will temporarily take the social activities down a notch, but will prob head out once in awhile. i should get back to reading... oh ps. i turn 25 at the end of this month.

oh, the weather outside is frightful

CONAN IS SERIOUS LOLZ. PLZ WATCH.

taken from tripwire.com:

Late night television returned last night with Letterman, Leno and Conan all getting back on the air after a two month hiatus due to the ongoing writers strike. Although Letterman was fortunate enough to negotiate a deal with the WGA through his Worldwide Pants production company, bringing back his entire writing staff, Leno and Conan are having to do it on their own. What makes this a bit more challenging is that the two are in the WGA, therefore they can't write during the strike either.

For Conan's grand debut last night, he had to resort to pulling out plenty of zany Conan-isms, with much of the opening segment revolving around his newly grown beard and spinning his wedding ring on his desk. He did piece together an amusing video, showing what his staff has been doing for the past two months, including annoying his fellow co-workers with his guitar playing and jamming on the Rock Band video game. This resulted in an amusing rendition of Conan singing Radiohead's "Creep," as well as Beastie Boys' "Sabotage" which he sang in the voice of Edith Bunker. Check out the video below... and welcome back Conan!

you wore my love like sapphires

i got the minipop cd a new hope back in early november, and like most of the things in my life, i shelved everything till i was done with the semester. they've been compared to eisley a lot because of their dreamy, whimsical sound. the album makes me nostalgic for simple times like swinging on the swings at the park during sunset with my shoes off, while dragging my feet through the sand... and blowing dandelion seeds in the wind. (if anyone does this while listening to the album, please let me know how it turned out.) EDIT: also.. i wrote the dandelion part before i realized that's what's on the album cover. way to be perceptive.

my picks: someone to love, generator, fingerprints, butterflies... okay seriously. i give up, just listen to the whole album. check out their quirky video below.
