Funny Google meme

Yeah, so I don't really do the whole posting-notes-on-Facebook thing unless I really need to (I have never really needed to), so I figure...what the heck? It's not like anyone reads this little blog of mine. Who says I need to always post about a certain thing?

Oh, and since I don't use my real first name as my posting name, I'll just go with "Sara" like I always do..

So, here it is...the infamous Google meme:

Sara needs...
...to win sexiest veg! (...I'm a human?)

Sara looks like...
...a cross between Queen Victoria and the Vampire Lestat! (I never would have thought of that.)

Sara likes...
...to feel her boyfriend close. (I am single...)

Sara says...
...her prayers. (I am atheist.)

Sara wants...
...snow tires more than a gold watch. (But I live in a place it doesn't snow...)

Sara does...
...Barb's race! (What kind of race is this?)

Sara hates...
...LV, but it will have some BITE! (I hate Las Vegas?)

Sara can't...
...afford child support. (Uh oh...that's not good.)

Sara goes...
...USA! (But I'm here already!)

Sara is...
...a man. (No. I am female.)

Sara loves...
...Anders loves Maria. (I don't get it - am I in a love triangle with an Anders and a Maria?)

Sara should...
...'ve done more than dump him. (But I thought I liked to be close to my boyfriend? Google, make up your mind!)

So yeah.

Mindless fun. =D

Apparently, I'm a very sexy vegetable.

A little change of scenery.

I realized I've had the same template since I began this blog: the "Snapshot" one (not the "Snapshot Sable" or "Snapshot Tequila" theme - the honest-to-goodness "Snapshot").

I think it's long past time for a change, don't you?

So I'm going to pick a new template right now! And it's not going to be a cop-out change to "Snapshot Sable" or "Snapshot Tequila", though I was tempted to. It's going to be...hmmm...

How about I edit this when I pick one? ;)

Edit: I picked "Scribe" as the new template. It is weird having the sidebar on the left, not the right...but I guess I'll just get used to it! :)

Re: The Last Airbender (yes, again)

Alright, so apparently Paramount has recast the role of Zuko. Instead of Jesse McCartney, we have Dev Patel, the young man who played the lead role in the recent hit, Slumdog Millionaire. (A movie I have not seen but sort of want to, since everyone I know except one person loved it.)

So...um...good things about that: Patel over McCartney ANY day. Apparently he knows tae kwon do. This is a good thing.

Bad things about that: Zuko is pretty clearly from a Chinese-based culture, not an Indian-based culture, so we still have bad casting. It could very well end up being a token PoC role. Having a group of white kids save the world from a bunch of dark-skinned evil people is never a nice thing to watch in the movies. And, of course, the scary thought that M Night Shyamalan might end up casting himself as Iroh, which would be...there are no words.

So yeah, still not great. I think I might join the letter-writing campaign once I have two brain cells to rub together again. I want to be able to write an eloquent letter, not brainless blog babble.

I just hope that if they make the Fire Nation all Asian Indian, they alter the culture so that it is more Indian and less Chinese so it would look less blatant. I also hope that if they're doing "visual contrast" (sigh, my late night idea from last week looks so distasteful now), they at least make the Earth Kingdom Chinese. I mean, if they're not going to make the Water Tribe INUIT (or at least DARK SKINNED like they're supposed to be - and I'm not going to even bother mentioning the Air Nomads), they should at least make one group of Avatar people get the right bunch of actors. Here's to hoping some little Chinese-American girl can snag the part of Toph in the next movie so at least ONE of the not-formerly-evil heroes can look the way they're supposed to.

And I'd just like to say...Dev Patel would be a pretty good Sokka. He's got the ears.

BFS Update: February 8

Alright, so I did like NOTHING for these this month, but it's February and I'd rather not do my homework now, so once again, I bring you the BFS updates! Here we go:

BIG:

1. Get into a regular exercise schedule - yeah, need to do this.
   
2. Better eating habits - I cut out chocolate from my diet but went back on January 26 and stayed back...and I still have horrible eating habits! So this isn't good, either.
   
3. Get into college! --> Graduate from high school! --> Go to college! - yeah, so I'm doing well with this one, of course! ;) I actually have the "get into college" one pretty much finished. I haven't gotten in anywhere yet, but I've done everything else - every single form is in. So now I'm just waiting. That's good.
   

FUN:

1. Draft the second book in The Eleventh before high school graduation - I started this! I outlined the fourth repeat during the past week and have about 1000 words written. My goal is to have maybe 15-20k by the end of the month...February is kind of a busy month for me. =X
   
2. Watch a sunrise from a high vantage point - need to do this.
   
3. Do something "above and beyond" for my creative writing class final project - still thinking. I have an idea, but it's only that - an idea. I'm in the class, though, so I'll try to absorb ideas and such while I'm in it.
   

SCARY:

1. Learn how to put on makeup - need to do this.
   
2. Get driver's license - I have been practicing driving! I have like...5 hours...which isn't good (since I wanted to have, like, ten by now), but a five day weekend is coming up. My goal for the five-day weekend: drive everyday for at least half an hour, and drive for an hour on at least two of the days. Ideally, I'd want to get 5 hours in during the weekend, but we'll see.
   
3. Get contact lenses - my mom said she'd call and get information, but I'm not red-ing this until she calls, even though I guess TECHNICALLY I've made progress.

Total:
- Not started: 6 (2 big, 2 fun, 2 scary)
- In progress: 3 (1 big, 1 fun, 1 scary)
- Completed: 0
- Failed: 0
Overall goal:
- 6 goals total (progress: 0/6)
- At least one in each category (categories filled: none)
