today was fun, again. after school, went to watch Be Cool with kitson, soph, vivien, claud. kitson's become hilariously generous of late, but i never seem to benefit from his generosity except last friday when he treated me for lunch, but that was barely 4 bucks because it was at the anchorage food court =( i should've been horrible and exploited the fact that he bought the tickets before we arrived. but then it -was- my fault that i told him vivien and soph were coming though they didn't really want to watch the movie, so paying for my ticket was called for. don't question the logic.

the movie was sleepworthy at bits, especially the rather gratuitous dance of uma thurman and john travolta to a very freaky mix of black eyed peas and sergio mendes, and then i was half-dozing during the music video bits etc. though seth green cameoed as shotgun! some director guy. the movie was FULL of cameos. seth green is Cool. and steven tyler is so ... weird. he looks like an old female hag gone completely wrong. but aerosmith is Cool too, don't get me wrong.

but overall rather amusing, i suppose. uma thurman is GORGEOUS. and so tall she wears flats all the time. and her clothes were fab. john travolta's gotten... thick, and i mean that in no sexually charged way. just, his waist looks rather large despite the constantly black uniform. and his character didn't come off as coolly suave as it was intended, i think. i mean, it was suave alright but there wasn't a great deal of Respeck achieved.

i want to watch spanglish, still.

and then shopping! i found soph a really gorgeous pair of earrings, and then i considered earrings myself but as i mentioned yesterday i've gotten extremely picky with earrings. but i bought a skirt! in beige, and soph bought the same thing in white. really nicely cut, with this sash-ish thing that can be tied around the waist which gives it a really great shot of colour. i love the skirt. soph got a tank top as well, which helped us nicely because the salesgirl gave us a 10% discount.

poor kitson was hanging around outside the whole time while vivien, soph and i were making skirt-related decisions. he is such pleasing company. i love shopping!

and my mother's convinced me not to buy the alberta ferretti jacket, because i'll never wear it in singapore and the next time i'm going to travel anywhere jacket-worthy is december, by which time there'll be plenty more time to shop and there'll be other jackets to buy. i suppose she's right. and perhaps i'll get myself a new backpack instead. time to scout for a backpack. but damn the jacket was gorgeous. i'll think about it some more. it's not designer enough to eventually be a vintage investment sort of thing, however. decisions, decisions.

my mom is reminiscing about how when i was little i didn't know how to jump, and instead i used to just sort of rock on my toes. and then when i was about 2 i learnt how to jump, but i couldn't actually say 'jump' so it sounded more like 'dhump' or something. and i used to say it over and over. man that was such a long time ago. i feel old.

i'm sleepy today, i think i'll go to bed early.
