can't get enough of this stuff


I love this video and am totally looking forward to April.

Oscar



So I was reading this article today and was reminded how weirdly skewed award season is, I mean remember how Lady Antebellum swept the Grammy's? Weird. So when it comes to movies and actors, I often think that "the academy" makes some interesting choices. Like remember when Avatar was nominated for Best Picture? Let's be serious folks, that was no best picture. I mean sure, the effects were spectacular, but the acting and plot were completely lacking when it comes to nominating a years best film, at least I think so. But, here's the kicker, I think I still give more credit to movies and actors that have won Academy Awards! I don't know why. They've totally gotten to me! Blast that Academy.


Also, on a fairly unrelated note, I saw this quote from Brad Pitt today: "I'm one of those people you hate because of genetics. It's the truth." Hate, Brad? Or love?

Registered

I just finished registering for the half version of this:



Believe it.

Running and I are going to become much better friends over the next couple of months and I am excited!

And maybe a little bit nervous.

Less than 90 seconds

So I have been going through a Rubic's Cube phase lately. I love it. It's so fun! And today I found out that this little guy is also a fan



He can solve it in one minute and 23 seconds. He's so talented.


P.S. Going to see his biopic this weekend and I am not ashamed (cause I don't really have much shame) to say that I am excited.

Ambitious

I kind of...sort of...want to run the Utah Valley Marathon. Just kidding! The half marathon, actually. I don't know that I will ever have the kind of ambition/desire/endurance/commitment it takes to run a full marathon, but who knows. I never thought I'd want to run a half, and yet here we are. Currently, I'm feeling excited about it and I think I've successfully convinced a couple girls I work with, Katie and Amber to run it with me! I am stoked...at least right now...
