So I went ahead and tried this recipe! My first time attempting to cook anything... so it wasn't perfect. It was good though! I think next time I'm gonna use less noodles and more parsley. I didn't use the full 3/4 cup.

2011!



Hello my loves! Happy New Year to all!!!! I can't believe it's already 2011! 1-1-11 is almost over already wow! My new years resolution is to be a happy and healthy person. I think I'm gonna try to be a little more nicer to people... I'm kind of a big meanie. But we'll see. Ha Ha. I also thought about actually printing out the pictures I take and start scrapbooking again instead of just uploading my pictures to my laptop! I hope everyone celebrated NYE safely as well! <3 <3 <3

Black Swan



Black Swan. Starring Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis. This movie is about a dancer (Natalie Portman) who lands the lead role in "Swan Lake". Obsessed with perfection, she dances the role of the sweet and innocent "white swan" beautifully, where throughout the movie she struggles to convince her director that she can also dance as the seductive and carefree "black swan"... which leads her to slowly lose her sanity.

Rated 8.7 out of 10 on IMDb.com. This movie deserves that rating. It was beautifully dark and twisted. And if you're into those type of movies you'll be glad you saw this. It had the right amount of suspense. The right amount of "What the fucks?" and the right amount of blood and masturbation. ;) Go see this movie with your girlfriends. It's far from the last movie you probably watched together- Eat, Pray, Love. lol
