Day 117

Tried to wash my clothes and pack for mission today.

It mostly worked.

I'm almost ready.

I think.

Went & saw Vicky Cristina Barcelona with Charmaine & Dean which was gooooood. 

Very Woody Allen. 

Lots of weird love triangles and an odd attitude to sex. 

But Ms Cruz was just incredible..! 

&& for some reason Scarlett Johansson didn't annoy me as much as I thought she would....

Some quick movie highlights.... 

- Scarlett Jo getting sick in the first half hour of the movie

- One of the female leads being someone I didn't recognise

- Penelope Cruz as the crazy ex, speaking rapid Spanish & being a manic depressive.

- Red light

- Good narration

- Beautiful locations

- Penelope Cruz yelling at Javier Bardem

- Bizarre love triangles being treated as completely normal

- Penelope Cruz in general

SHOPPING HIGHLIGHT FROM YESTERDAY THAT I FORGOT TO MENTION!

I saw this great dress just before Christmas. It's a maxi dress, light cotton material, dark grey almost black, with pink and green and blue floral patterns on the hem and the bust.. it's got that elastic ruffled stuff at the top as well.. yeah.

So I tried it on etc etc, loved it, went to buy it then saw that it wasn't $39.95, it was on the FROM $39.95 rack and was in fact $59.95.. damn. Didn't get it, thought about it for a  few days but decided i really couldn't justify the purchase at all..... made me sad.

BUT then i got an email from the clothing chain about some 50% off sale on monday only, so i went and bought the dress and i got it for 30 bucks! SWWWEEEET!
