Obligatory random entry of the month.

Filed under Life As We Know It | 2 Comments »

I think it’s that time of the month where I’m allowed to indulge in a very random and pointless entry consisting of bullet points. :D I also just realized that it has been nine days into the month, and I haven’t blogged about anything yet. :D

Actually, it’s also because I haven’t had anything interesting to blog about lately. Maybe it’s just a momentary block (at least I think it is). But hey, things can be good in random bits and pieces, right? Right.

  • I’ve discovered that certain people haven’t been able to access my blog for the past, what, two weeks? I don’t know how long this has been. DNS records have been updated, so hopefully, you can view the website now. The problem seems to have been resolved for a few of my friends now. :)
  • I love cinnamon gum. Love it, love it, love it. So if you’d like to shower me with boxes of Big Red this Christmas, I’ll love you forever. ;)
  • Finally, finally, finally. I have a DVD of To Kill A Mockingbird! Now I can watch Gregory Peck everyday.
  • I have moved my photoblog as a subdomain under Lexie.ph. If any of you guys have photoblogs, I’d be happy to do a link exchange. ;)
  • I’ve spent the better part of the day looking at home theater carpeting for the home theater I know I will never have. :D

It’s 4:00PM and I have to get ready for a party I have to attend… in 2 hours. I hate wearing formal dresses. It’s so not me.

Possible My Fair Lady remake?

I’m about a few months too late, but I can’t say I’m happy hearing the news about a remake of the 1964 musical My Fair Lady, being in the works. And that Keira Knightley is being considered to portray Eliza Doolittle.

My Fair Lady

I was less thrilled when I found out that George Clooney and Brad Pitt are fighting over the role of Henry Higgins - and Brad Pitt wants Angelina Jolie to play Eliza Doolittle.

It just doesn’t hold any appeal. Perhaps I’m being too quick to judge, but I can’t see Keira Knightley or Angelina Jolie surpassing Audrey Hepburn’s performance. I can’t even think of anyone who would be suitable to play Professor Henry Higgins. I sure as hell wouldn’t choose Clooney or Pitt. The film just seems too iconic and already perfect the way it is, that a remake would just probably ruin the story.

…Of course, that’s just my opinion.

Oh, look. This is my last post for the month of October. :)

Perhaps you’d like some information on linear motion.

The Party

Tags: birthday, party, retro
Filed under Life As We Know It | No Comments »

My brother’s 23rd birthday is on the 30th. We were trying to think of something to do, to celebrate. Two weeks ago, we decided we’d have a retro costume party, which was reasonable since his actual birthday is on the day before Halloween.

My brother went as a hippie, and I went as… an Austin Powers girl (this is according to my brother’s judgment). I think I looked like a complete retard.

But it was fun, a great reason for shopping (I got most of the stuff I wore 50% off, my dress was 60% off), and a great reason to dress weird. :D

Photos can be found after the cut :)
