I'm rushing to get my post in today before it's officially midnight. It has been a long and busy, but productive day. Started off the day by going to the gym for the second time in a row. My thighs hurt so bad from yesterday I had trouble walking home after English club tonight. Slightly embarrassing. I had a different trainer today (maybe Roma? I can't remember his name). Both trainers I've had know English so-so...numbers and parts of the body. I was explaining to Roma that yesterday I did arms and legs. He said, "Okay, today we will do back and (points at the but)...what is this? Buts?" He asked me how you say "but" in English, but remembered before I said it. Except he made it plural. I tried to stifle my laughter as I explained we only have one but.
After showering at the gym, I headed home quickly to eat and go to work for English clubs. Most clubs were uneventful today. My little 3rd form brats kiddies were actually MUCH better. Why you ask? Because they decided to split the class in half and create another English club for me, without my consent. I'm pretty okay with it because 8 kids was much more manageable than 17. Do you know what they begged to sing the whole time?
I think I've watched this video (and sang it) at least 100 times. I actually taped them singing it today, but forgot my camera at work, so maybe that will be tomorrow's post. I now have a new found respect for my parents and my lovely big brother who watched Dumbo and 101 Dalmatians hundreds of times when I was little. Speaking of 101 Dalmatians...
This is what the title of the post is geared towards:
This was floating around on good ol' Facebook today. I died laughing and had to do a double take as I sat there and thought, "Oh my gosh, that really is them!"
Today's Christmas movie holds a special place in my heart for a few reasons. I can quote this entire scene...maybe because I've watched it so many times? Or maybe because I've practiced quoting it with Rosemary. This movie came out my freshman year of college and I saw it 4 (yes, four) times at the theater. The last time I saw it was at the Dollar Theater in Norman with a group of girls from my dorm hall. We were the ONLY people in the theater and it was one of the most memorable movie watching experiences I've ever had. We squealed and laughed and cried and quoted the whole thing :) It was epic. Without further ado, I give you, The Holiday :)
"Dad! Take her coat!"
"Wow, you look like my Barbie!"
"Daddddd! Do Mr. Napkinhead!!!"
"You don't like tents...?"
What's not to love. :) Much love, Lyd
