Movies & Oscars

Hello all!  CR here.  IL and I switched days because Monday wasn't a good one for her.  So, it's the day after the Oscars and I actually watched it which I never do because, let's face it, people find it boring.  And by people I mean me.  However, this year the Oscars had Hugh Jackman hosting and nominations for Kate Winslet and Heath Ledger so I had to tune in.

Hugh Jackman was amazing.  Go Kate!  Go Heath!

Okay, done with the Oscars.

This weekend a friend and I went to see Confessions of a Shopaholic which was incredibly cute and funny!  I loved how they kept the events of the book but tweaked them a bit.  I'd definitely like to go see it again.

I also went to see Slumdog Millionaire which was phenominal.  It was riveting and kept me guessing throughout.  I highly recommend this movie. 

Friday Night Movie & American Idol

On Friday I saw "He's Just Not That Into You."  It wasn't as funny as I expected it to be but overall I thought it was a great movie.  It has a great cast and a lot of heart.  If you get a chance to see it while it's in theaters I do recommend it.  If not, catch it once it's out on DVD.

Today I watched American Idol for the first time ever.  Apparently it's been on for eight years and is huge so I'm not sure how I've gone this long without seeing it but I have.  My brother-in-law decided that I had to watch this show.  I must say that I liked it much more than I expected to.  I'm not entirely sure how some of the people made it onto the show and I absolutely Simon.  He doesn't sugar coat things which is what these people need if they're going to make it in the music business.  

School work calls so I must head out.  I'll see you all next week!
