Purple Nail Polish
Excellent. There was no school today.
And now its 5:15 and most of the day is over...blast. I still have French homework to do and I need to shower...Blarg.
Oh well.
So I was watching Big Fish today...fantastical movie, Tim Burton, Ewan McGregor--give me this combo and we're in business. But I noticed something strange...Miley Cyrus was in it. How weird is that? What's weirder is that she wasn't actually Miley Cyrus yet. Yeah. When she was Destiny. I don't really know why she's Miley now...Do I care? No. But I digress; she was only in it in the beginning: she was Ruthie, the only girl who went on Edward's odyssey to the witch's house as a child. None of this is quite significant, but...to quote myself, "Oh well".
So I began reading Pride & Prejudice (for school, of course). I do love Jane Austen. I read Sense & Sensibility over the summer (again...for school) and I liked it. You have to be patient, though. More so, I felt, with S&S than P&P: things seemed to start almost right away in the latter, whereas I remember the former taking a while to get interesting. But I overheard a girl in my year with the reputation of being ranked #1 in the class (I'm not jealous...not at all) speaking about P&P, and one would think someone supposedly so intelligent would have an appreciation for good literature. But she sounded just as I imagined the average person my age would in contact with Jane Austen: "It was so boring! I read the first few chapters and it didn't make any sense!" Honestly? Jane Austen has some of the most interesting characters...and it doesn't hurt that I happen to be a hopeless romantic...
Really, I am. Don't be so surprised. [/sarcasm]
Anyway, I'm rather excited to be reading. 'Tis fun.
On a side note, you know how there's a bold and an italic and an underline (though they don't seem to have that)? I think there should be something for sarcasm. It's the internet, sarcasm needs to find a way to come across easily and unmistakably. I go to message boards; things would be less annoying if people got the sarcasm.
So, I'll be going, biscuits.
Oh, and to the title of the postage: I've painted my nails...!

Reach my prismic soul.
"Only theatre people have musical moments."
-Myself
Hello world. My name is Sarah; what's yours?
I love: my long, teal, knit, fingerless gloves; being able to pack that many adjectives into one description; thinking; my awesome friends; my lovable family; the theatre--both acting in and watching; my iPod; classical music; Five For Fighting music; ...music...; "How I Met Your Mother"; Neil Patrick Harris; writing; papaya lip gloss; "Friends"; the interwebz; English Class; movies; awards shows; chocolate related things; New York City; Boston; Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert; telling people about the things I love (apparently.)
I hate: negativity (well isn't that the hypocritical statement of the century); stupid people; bad parents; thinking; my inability to fall asleep quickly; sunburns; touching/eating sea creatures; insects; my bangs separating; writer's block; sickness; my own forgetfulness; my own impatience; know-it-alls; IRKs; intolerance; static electricity; dirt under my fingernails.
Quote of the week:
"Yes, I'm grounded: got my wings clipped. I'm surrounded by all this pavement. Guess I'll circle while I'm waiting for my fuse to dry. Someday I'll fly; someday, I'll soar. Someday I'll be so damn much more; cause I'm bigger than my body gives me credit for."
~John Mayer, "Bigger Than My Body"
