No life. Just studying.

No time to post properly - I have the AP Chem test in two days. TWO. DAYS.

I'll probably be back tomorrow with some panicked, incoherent keyboard-slamming.

Now excuse me while I go study my organic compounds.

"'Ester' sounds like 'Easter,' and on Easter, you eat a lot and get REALLY FAT, so there are a lot of atoms in esters!"

Procrastination and deprivation

Sleep deprivation, that is. My group of friends has one and only motto that we live by:

We are AP students! We do not sleep! Studying comes first! Health and personal hygiene and everything else goes second!

...yeah. BECAUSE THE AP CHEM TEST IS IN TWO WEEKS HOW CAN YOU EXPECT ME TO LIVE A "NORMAL" LIFE We really don't have lives, do we? (No.)

Nightshade: So not fair. When I have kids, they're going to be BILINGUAL
Nightshade: and AWESOME
Janepage: My kids are going to be super amazing!
Nightshade: Ikr? I will have studly little children
Nightshade: Meeheeheeheehee
Janepage: AND THEY SHALL BE NAMED AFTER FRUITS

I refrained from putting the next bit, due to stalkerphobia issues with our real names, but it included coming up with random fruits paired with our last names. Also, my first two children are going to be Pineapple and Kumquat, and hers are going to be Watermelon and... Melon. I suppose.

Poor, poor children who are someday cursed to have us two as mothers. They'll never know what hit them.

YOU SEE, MOTHER. THIS IS WHY WE ARE BEST FRIENDS. I do not lie.

I'm supposed to be asleep in ten minutes, but...

...I just had to post this. I had to.

No? Okay.

OKAY FANGIRL SESSION STARTS NOW.

We're doing a film analysis unit in my English class and last week, we were informed that we would be watching Moulin Rouge! and 12 Angry Men (in that order). I had absolutely no clue what either of the films was about, so I went in with an open mind (although I admit I was slightly wary of the Boring In-Class Movie trap. Looking at you, Henry V).

In case you haven't seen it, the first twenty minutes or so of Moulin Rouge are completely and utterly ridiculous. In short: it contains a crossdressing dwarf, a spirited rendition of the Sound of Music title song (the hiiiiiiiills are aliiiiiive, etc.), and the lines "Suddenly, an unconscious Argentinian fell through my ceiling" and "LOVE IS LIKE OXYGEN!", along with a drug-induced dancing fairy and a neon-colored strip club cancan place (the Moulin Rouge).

After that, fortunately, the main storyline picks up, so it's not entirely insane. If you haven't seen it: It's a love story. About a writer and a cancan dancer. AND IT WAS AMAZING.

And the interesting thing is, I don't usually like romantic movies. I find them bland and a bit pointless without a bigger plot to carry the romance. (As you might guess, I pretty much hate romcoms and chick flicks and the like.) I prefer intense action/fiery explosions/insane visual effects/laugh-until-oxygen-fails-you comedy. Moulin Rouge is mainly a romance, but it has the advantage of also being hilarious, suspenseful, and (sometimes) depressing.

AND IT'S A MUSICAL.

DARN YOU iTUNES AND YOUR INABILITY TO PURCHASE INDIVIDUAL SONGS INSTEAD OF THE ENTIRE ALBUM YOU HAVE FORCED ME TO YOUTUBE The music's pretty amazing, too. Now, every time I hear it, I start grinning like an idiot and can't stop for about forty minutes after the song ends. [DREAMY FANGIRL SIGH]

So watch it. NOW.

Disclaimer: Moulin Rouge! is PG-13, and it takes place in a cancan theater (is that the right term?), which is basically the equivalent of an 1899 strip club. If you're worried about Things That Are Not Rated G, you should probably skip this one. There's no actual, ahem, "adult content," and you have to take into consideration the setting, but still. Just in case.
