I'm going to apologize in advance because they're a bunch of random things I'm going to put into this post so its going to be like a bunch of mini posts in one!

First off...ok maybe it's just my school, my group of friends, and I know my hypochondria is DEFINITELY playing into this but has anyone else noticed that the subject of swine flu has been on EVERYONE'S mind's lately? It's seriously the only thing that anyone around here is talking about...the school has sent out like 800 emails, all of the professors have been talking about it in class, and my group of friends and I are talking about it because we obviously know that if one of us get's it, all of us will. To make matter's worse, one of my housemates has been feeling really sick today so we've been making her take her temp every 5 min and have basically convinced ourselves that she has it. Sooooo if I don't update my blog for awhile, I'm probably out buying a hazmat suit and curling up into the fetal position in my room!

Second of all how was everyone's weekend? Mine was GREAT but I def can't drink as much as I did both nights! Saturday was spent hanging out on the couch with my magazine/catalogue and Sunday I napped and did some work before my first sorority chapter of the year that night. Today was somewhat stressful (which is a story for a different post) however the definate HIGHLIGHT of the day was watching True Blood this afternoon on a break between classes. Um how amazing was that episode, and am I crazy or did Eric STILL look hot when he was in that dress? I also can't WAIT for the finale but can't believe that it's the Sunday after Labor Day....GRRRR.

Here are a couple fun pictures from the weekend (aka Friday night)

Senior and Junior KDs....ignore all of the empty Natty cans haha




(my dress from saturday night...I didn't have any cute pictures from that night but wanted to share the dress because I liked it!)

Lastly, I wanted to send a HUGE congrats out to my mama today for finishing her first day of school. After many years of working in the business world, and then being a stay at home mom, my mom decided to go back to school to become a vet technician which is something that she's always wanted to do....it's so awesome that she's doing this now, and I also want to wish her GOOD LUCK on the upcoming year!

Sorry again for this very random post and I hope everyone had a good Monday/a great end of August!

Please Don't Do This!

So if you have been reading my blog for a little while you know that I absolutely LOVE really bad, cheesy movies (see here for a post on one of my favs.) I don't know why I love them but I do, and they will always hold a special place in my heart. So imagine my surprise when I come home after a VERY long day working at the boutique to read that there might be a remake of the 80s movie Girls Just Want To Have Fun in the works. Hollywood: PLEASE DON'T DO THIS!!! For anyone who hasn't seen this movie please run right now to your nearest Blockbuster and rent this movie right now. Go on I'll wait. 

You're back? Ok good. For anyone who hasn't see this movie (and I'm really hoping that there's other crazy people out in blog world who love this movie as much as I do!) it starts a VERY your Sarah Jessica Parker, Helen Hunt, and Shannon Doherty, as well as a bunch of other random 80s stars who haven't done anything else, as teenagers in Chicago who enter a dance contest to get on DTV (a kinda dance version of MTV.) The movie is FILLED with horrible 80s clothes and dancing, and is possibly one of the best movies ever made. The soundtrack is absolutely amazing as well, and I am not ashamed to admit that I have it on cassette and would listen to it in my car, until my radio that had a cassette player with it broke :( 

Anyhoo, the point of this very long and pointless post is that Hollywood, I am BEGGING you to not ruin a perfectly amazing 80s movie . I'm sure you have much better (and ORIGINAL) ideas for movies...please use them. I apologize for this random post and I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend! Off to see Angels and Demons tonight....hope it's good!

ETA: Like others have already mentioned in the comments don't even get me started on the travesty that is the remake of Footloose. I love Chase Crawford as much as the next gal but please...he is NO Kevin Bacon and I am already refusing to see this movie.
