I’ve over my pity party. I had a totally shit day at work, bought chocolate on the way home but it had gone feral (like all white and weird, you know how it does that? so I chucked it) and decided that I’d open the bottle of Muscato I had in the fridge. Wise move, one glass was the perfect amount to take the edge off and bring everything back to a happy place.
MY GHD also arrived this morning, I am finally able to appreciate how awesome it is after the wine, before the wine I was indifferent to it. I like having straight hair and I like knowing that I won’t require a whip and a stool to tame it into submission tomorrow morning before uni. Yay. I am fine with going on prac again now as well. I have decided to make a little lap quilt for my new house mate lady. It’s kind of hard to buy a gift for someone I won’t know well, not everyone drinks wine, fresh flowers aren’t particularly easy to come by in the outback and beauty products are a little bit over done so I figured most people would appreciate the effort involved with making a quilt, plus a small one can be throw over a coffee table or the back of the couch or even hung on the wall. It’s quite a simple one and I hope to knock it over this long weekend, undecided if I’ll quilt it myself or just do the piecing.
Anyways, to make up for my sad-sackery of today, here is a super fun meme!
Here are the rules:
- Pick 15 of your favorite movies
- Go to IMDb and find a quote for each of the movies
- Post them here for everyone to guess
- Strikeout when someone correctly guesses in the comments, put who guessed it and the movie
- No Googling or using IMDb
1.
“Look at these earrings. I’ll be the envy of every girl at prom…. Not like that was in jeopardy or anything.”
2.

5.
“Listen, I’m a big supporter of fixing potholes and erecting swing sets and building shelters. I am *more* than happy to pay those taxes. I’m just not such a big fan of the percentage that the government uses for national defense, corporate bailouts, and campaign discretionary funds. So, I didn’t pay those taxes. I think I sent a letter to that effect with my return.” Jac wins, this is Stranger Than Fiction!
6.
“You should’ve gone to China, you know, ’cause I hear they give away babies like free iPods. You know, they pretty much just put them in those t-shirt guns and shoot them out at sporting events. Enny wins, this was Juno!
7.

10.

Comment by jensomewhere — March 17, 2008 @ 8:51 pm |
Number 9 – DIRTY DANCING!
(I’m shite at this meme but yay I got one!)
Comment by Miss A — March 17, 2008 @ 9:00 pm |
Damnit, I’m always too slow. I knew Dirty Dancing, Stranger than Fiction and Mean Girls.
I’m not certain, and I could well be really really wrong, but could 11 be Father of the Bride 2? The names sound vaguely familiar.
I really need to do this meme.
Comment by downhomegirl — March 17, 2008 @ 9:33 pm |
I thought Clueless! But then I thought she went on a bigger rant… I can has half point plz?:o)
Comment by enny — March 17, 2008 @ 9:34 pm |
Miss A, great work!!
Downhomegirl, you got it!!! That one was a hard one
Comment by jensomewhere — March 17, 2008 @ 9:38 pm |
Enny, I wasn’t really doing points but sure, I’ll give you 75% for being close
Comment by jensomewhere — March 17, 2008 @ 10:15 pm |
no 15 is Music and Lyrics, I love that film. Have a copy and have already watched it many times….
That is all I know…
I also knew 11, but Amanda beat me too it!
Comment by sakuralulu — March 17, 2008 @ 10:31 pm |

Comment by sakuralulu — March 17, 2008 @ 10:31 pm |
oh man, the only one I knew there was Mean Girls. Too slow!
I feel like I know #10 but I can’t place it. Itching to Google.
Comment by non-blondie — March 18, 2008 @ 12:57 am |
Number 10 is Music and Lyrics. Something about Hugh Grant makes me giggle
Comment by Just Me — March 18, 2008 @ 1:02 am |
Lulu x 2, yay, you got it! I also like that movie, I think it’s very sweet. Ta for the blog bling
Non-Blondie, I’ll give you a clue. “Kate Hudson”
Just Me, #10 isn’t Music and Lyrics, unfortunately. 15 is though, 75% points for guessing the movie correctly
Comment by jensomewhere — March 18, 2008 @ 7:09 am |
Ooh no one’s guessed number 3 yet!! I’m so sure I know it……. HMMMM *thinks hard*
Comment by Jac — March 18, 2008 @ 9:27 am |
Jac, I’ll give you a clue, it’s the first movie Wifey and I ever watched together *lameo for remembering that*
Bonus points for naming the bit in the movie when the line is said.
Comment by jensomewhere — March 18, 2008 @ 10:58 am |
De-lurking to say:
Number 14 was Death At A Funeral.
#3 is driving me nuts – I know it, just can’t think of it!
Comment by magic bellybutton — March 18, 2008 @ 8:07 pm |
Magic Bellybutton, yes! Good one! I didn’t think anyone was gonna get that.
You’ll defs know #3, and you’ll kick yourself when you work it out
Comment by jensomewhere — March 18, 2008 @ 8:14 pm |
I’m sure I know 14, but it’s just not coming to me
Comment by downhomegirl — March 18, 2008 @ 9:19 pm |
