This is It

this_is_it_movie_poster_michael_jacksonTalk about making your mark on the world. All his songs tried to change the way people saw the world, saw each other. And even though he was a bit nuts, the simplistic and childlike wonder he had with people and with the world came out in the filming of his concert. Only MJ could do the things he did. Only he could unite the world. Even the BMO knew who he was and was sad that he had died.

It was pretty sad to think that all that hard work, all those dreams never got fulfilled. Luckily they filmed some of it. Otherwise it would have all been lost. I kept thinking about those dancers who never got to preform all they prepared for. All those dreams that were riding on MJ.

New Moon

new-moon-coverby Stephanie Meyer

In preparation for the upcoming movie, I decided to reread New Moon. I hate how Bella seems so helpless but at the same time like a power woman. And I’m not really sure why Edward seems like such a tool to me, but I can’t really stand him. Doesn’t he seem a little too perfect like all those other tools they seem to dig up for The Bachelor? Unfortunately, I love the story. And I love Jacob, because if anything, he’s honest and imperfect and he’s not always apologizing.

And another thing, the covers for these books kind of suck. The design makes the books feel overly dramatic. Perhaps that’s what they’re going for, but I just wish they’d redesign them. Add maybe a little bit of life to them?
