I know, I generally have more of a plan in mind when I write a journal entry. Well, let's see what happens, shall we?
I've calmed down enough to write in English, for the time being.
In other news: I'm dating Zac Efron.
See? ^^
We've even slept together:
Nah, just kidding. If I could land Zac Efron, so many of my problems would be solved. Actually, I'd really only want him for his money and usefulness to that end. And all of his /backside/ that was the sum total of what Disney allowed us to see during HSM3. Yup.
No, but really, this whole thing has come to me because I was told by someone that I reminded her of Juliet. From the old 1968 version of the movie. Not to be confused with the /1996/ production, which contains Leonardo DiCaprio, and which I have never seen and possibly never will see in its entirety.
In the movie, Juliet is played by the lovely Olivia Hussey, whose daughter, I discovered, is actually India Eisley. India plays Ashley, who is probably my favourite character from The Secret Life of the American Teenager. <3 This being said, I took my friend's comment as a compliment. And then performed a deeper analysis to determine whether she was actually right. I mean, I do look.../rather/ similar to Olivia. Especially from the side. And on good days [without straightening, of course], my hair looks almost exactly like India's/Ashley's.
I'm always surprised when people tell me that I look like anyone, be they famous or not, because I just find myself difficult to make comparisons to...I guess? [That's not exactly how I wanted to say that, but...it's close. -blinks-] At one point, I remember sitting in my desk chair and glancing over at myself in my mirror and thinking, Wow, I look like Christine from The Phantom of the Opera. So you can imagine that if someone took Emmy Rossum and Miranda Cosgrove, smashed them together, and made the result a lot uglier, it'd be me.
Yay?
I just can't get him to stay away from me. xP
Okay, well. The slightly amusing thing is that even if I look remotely like Olivia Hussey, my husband looks /nothing/ like Leonard Whiting. And I'd take him over Zac Efron any day. <3
I've been meaning to write reviews of some books I've read and films I've seen lately, but I just...haven't. It's a wonder I've gotten even this out. D;
For some reason, I feel like improving the vocabulary of whoever reads this humble journal of mine. So I'm sure all two of you will thank me. [nod] I present to you...[does her own drumroll]
Maddie's Unheard Word of the Journal~
Today, April 23, the word I've chosen is effervescence. How often do you hear someone use /that/, every day? It's just a pretty, nice-sounding [not to mention sophisticated] word. I dare you to use it in daily conversation. : D
'WTF does effervescence mean, anyway, Maddie?'
Well, here you go.
This word is a noun, meaning either the process of bubbling as a gas escapes [as in carbonated drinks], or the more useful high-spiritedness. Is that last one even a word? Oh well. Enjoy.
You're welcome. See? This is what I do. Enrich the lives of everyone in my presence. [smile]
That doesn't sound like something I'd say, at all.
Meh. Time to finish up. I think I'm done here. But Zac isn't. ;P
You know what they say about men with big eyebrows.
Respectfully yours,
~Olivia ~Maddie
Current countdown: What used to be over five months has been reduced to a glorious twenty-eight days. [gasps]
