Confessions of a Shopaholic

Confessions of a Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella was a wonderful book. I like the feeling that Rebbecca Bloomwood is a real person with a real debt problem. She tries different kinds of tactics ending with putting all her bills in a drawer and forgetting about them. Ironically, she ends up advising people on their own fiances through her job and a surprise in the end. My favorite scene in the book is the one when Rebbecca gets a job at a clothing store. She actually tries to hide some pants that she wanted to buy from a customer, ending up getting fired on her first day. All in all, the book was cute and funny with a little romance which you know I love.

As you probably have seen from the commercials, the movie is coming to theaters tomorrow. I think that Isla Fisher is the perfect actress for Rebbecca. She has a kind of innocent look about her that fits what Sophia Kinsella put in the book. On the other hand, I don't really like the actor chosen to play Rebbecca's love interest Luke, Hugh Dancy. I think he's cute but I don't really like the way he acts. I imagine Luke to be... different. lol. Of course, my personal opinion doesn't really matter. But hey, I get to watch if for free. hehe. That's the one and only perk of my job: free movie tickets.

Anyway, I will definitely tell you what I think after I've seen it. Oh, and Sophie Kinsella's other books that I have read are good as well: Can You Keep a Secret and Remember Me.

More Distractions

I have found discovered a new thing to distract me from my school work.

Yeah. My brother got it for his xbox 360. I don't even like video games because I'm completely uncoordinated and can't handle them. But this one is a complete button masher. I just can press anything and not lose all the time. And it's strangely addictive, this odd fighting game. There's even a yoda, you know, from Star Wars. I think he looks pretty odd fighting characters like the one in the picture, Tira. She's my current favorite. I like her hoola hoop sword of doom. Yeah. I think I'm becoming a dork. Or the dork is coming out of me.

One of my favorite things about the game is the feature where you can create your own character. People have made Batman vs. Joker, Spiderman vs. Iron Man, and many others. I personally just made a female fighter who looked like a princess. Nothing too special. But the downside to making her look pretty was that she had no armor. So basically she sucked. Figures.

Anyway, this game is too addicting for someone who sucks at it. I've gotten to the point now where I can button mash smartly. Yes, its possible. Before, I would just press any ol' thing at any ol' time. But now, I make sure my character is facing the correct direction (very important :]) and I realized recently you can press more than one button at once and get combos. So I'm improving on the game as my Pre-Cal and Creative Writing homework are left untouched.

*sigh*

It's going to be a long weekend.
