Kirsten
Carrie
Julie
Janet
Kaylianna
Jessica A
So anyway, today I watched Timeline, which does not do the movie justice AT ALL. Here were the differences and omissions:
In the book, Chris got separated from the rest and Claire rescued him. In the movie, it was Marek.
In the book, Chris, Claire, and I think Arnaut had a love triangle. In the movie there wasn't even a love triangle.
There was some guy named Gordon in the movie and I don't recall him being in the book but maybe I just forgot that.
The omitted the jousting contest, the thing where Kate is on the rafters, um...Robert De Kere only showed up like twice, and basically it was not as suspenseful as it should have been. Oh yeah, and at the end they make Doniger go back in time to when the plague was really big, but he went back right to where the other three were and he had his head chopped off. And they didn't reveal at all how they rebuilt the time machine so they could get back, they didn't talk about how they know when they're coming back, they didn't talk at all about Robert De Kere and why he was such a manbitch now, or about how people get messed up when they take too many trips. If I hadn't read the book first, I would never have known what was going on. I didn't know anybody's name or anything. And they didn't say how much Marek lived for the past, how he belonged there, so his staying there had less meaning in the movie. In the book Chris is rather stupid, arrogant, and selfish. In the movie he's heroic and protective of Kate (and also pretty hott). In the book, Kate is independent, intelligent, and tough. In the movie, she's emotive, stupid, and girly. I wanted her to die, but as it usually happens in cases like this, she didn't die. Oh yeah, they took out that crazy knight that attacked Chris.
Okay, I had a weird dream involving Chris Carabba but I don't want to write it right now. Here are songs that I've had stuck in my head lately:
So Impossible-Dashboard Confessional
Beat of My Heart-Hillary Duff (no idea why)
I Just Wanna Live-Good Charlotte
My Humps-Black Eyed Peas
I can't remember what else, but I wake up every morning with a different song stuck in my head.
I was telling Cameron about my Mr. Anderon Nazi dream and he's like "are you sure this was a dream?" I swear, its been a week since that dream and I'm still scared to talk to Mr. Anderson.
I have band tomorrow and I don't want to go. How many people do we have in band...? Me, Stacey, Jonas, Cameron, Gillian, Brittany, Kiera, Danny, Andra, Damien, and Vicky. That is eleven in senior band and in junior band there is...Donell, Matt, Amber, Charlene, Matthew, and I think thats it. That's fifteen in all, compared to like, twenty last year. Actually 21, I just counted.
I talked to Kristin for like five minutes, which brightened my day. I'm still waiting for her phone call..
I'm getting three songs from Ian and Lindsay:
Cute Without The E (Cut From The Team)-Taking Back Sunday
Smile Like You Mean It-The Killers
Road To Zion-Damian Marley
Never mind, for some reason which I'm not aware of, Ian cancelled THE FIRST TWO!
Frick.
That has shattered my excitement. I think I could cry.
I am now swearing at Ian. To myself, because there's no one to direct my disappointment to.
But Shino is making me a picture so that might make it better.
Nvm, Ian is resending them, but they were both almost done *sniff sniff*
Anyway, gotta go as I have nothing else to write. Ta homies!
