Knock-Off

I was watching DVF's pre-spring/resort runway show last week while "studying". No, really I was though, listening to a lecture while watching pretty dresses...but anyway, I saw two pieces that I either a) must buy b) must find a knock-off for or c) must be Whitney Port so I may own them.

Emette Dress in Navy


Carnita Skirt in Multi Stripe

Any internet saavy people or fashionistas want to try and find knock-offs for these? I may have to eat mac n cheese to buy them if not.

Typical

Here I go, eating my words about going underground. A girl needs a break from bar studying, right? And I've been hassling Mike to blog and he refuses. That and he's been busy reading all of the Harry Potters for the first time. He's totally sucked into number 6, so much so that he stole it from me to read it. For shame!

Anyway, the other day I was looking on fandango dreaming about going to a movie instead of studying contracts. I saw they had a nice little feature about the top 50 most anticipated movies for 2009 (which btw most of them looked like crap). I was just scrolling through the pictures and short synopses when I got to X-Men: Wolverine and it mentioned that Taylor Kitsch was going to be Gambit in the movie.



I hurriedly exclaimed, "Riggins is going to be Gambit!"

Mike: "What? When?"

"In the new X-Men movie about Wolverine coming out this summer".

"Yeah, I dont know how I feel about that...Riggins?"

"Whatever, he's going to be awesome!" (I can't deny my love for Riggins)

"Gambit was a Cajun. He was also a self-proclaimed ladies man. I just can't see Riggins pulling that off"

"So not true! All he has to do is mumble and throw cards and be a gambler. And he liked Rogue, right? Cajun? What is a Cajun?"




"Gambit was from Louisiana and really proud of his heritage."

"No he was not! I remember because I was totally in love with cartoon Gambit"

"Gambit was my favorite too but I remember this correctly."

"Okay fine I'll wikipedia it. [Searching wikipedia] Uhh...."

"What does it say?"

"As the X-Men's self-described ladies man, Gambit has shown a more vulnerable side of himself over the years, especially when it comes to Rogue. Gambit remains fiercely proud of his Louisiana heritage, and speaks in a very thick, Cajun accent."

Mike then laughed. And I then laughed.

Typical.

PS if you don't know who Riggins is, please please watch Friday Night Lights, the TV show. It's glorious.

Trouble

This is what happens Saturday morning when you have to wake up at 815 am to go to a class that is really boring and makes you want to poke your eyes out (real property).





You look ridiculous with a dark chocolate sprinkles cupcake sitting in front of you. And then magically half of it disappears at the first break because you went off into a corner to scarf it down and then had to wipe the chocolate frosting off your face. Can you blame me?

Underground

I'm going underground for a while. It has to do with this evil evil thing called the California Bar Exam. 3 days of misery are upon me at the end of February and I have to know a lot of law that I sure didn't learn in law school. (Not necessarily my fault, law school doesn't teach for the bar exam and well, you know, I didn't do any reading in law school anyway...)

My days consist of getting up at 8:10, cursing the clock 5 times, going to class for 3 1/2 hours, driving back and snuggling with Mike, scrounging up something for lunch, and then study, study, study. I have been reading blogs just to keep me sane. (That may have to stop soon....)

Anyway, I just wanted to let you know you won't be hearing from me in a while. I turn the blog over to Mike (who also needs to work on the formatting, I totally apologize, but I just think this blog is looking ugly). So don't judge a blog by its layout, the content will still be good, I promise.
