with a little help from my friends.

01) I made $100 over the weekend babysitting overnight. With all of my money, I have enough to pay for half an iPod (my parents will hopefully pay the other half), but Mommy won't let me get one because it's not a "special occasion", as was the case with Graham and Monica. But everyone else in the family has one, so why not me? DON'T I DESERVE ONE?

02) Things I want, more than I actually need, to buy:
- This bag. Because it's roomy without being to big and just looks really good.
- The Patrick Dempsey Barbie from Enchanted. Because my Barbie needs a boyfriend, and who better than Patrick Dempsey? (Although, it doesn't really look like him. AND IT'S ONLY AVAILABLE ONLINE.)
- An Obama t-shirt. This one will work just fine.

03) THE OSCARS. I don't even watch that many movies, and I have lots to say!
- Jon Stewart pretty much rocked it this time around. Too bad it was the second lowest rated Oscars ever, huh?
- I loved the retrospective clip segements! Even the tribute to binoculars&periscopes and waking up from bad dreams.
- I have seen nearly 9 of the 80 Best Picture winners! They are: Gigi, West Side Story, Oliver! (some parts), One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Annie Hall, Ghandi, Rain Man, Forrest Gump and The Departed (some parts).
- I thought Marion Cotillard and Amy Adams looked amazing. Proof:

- My favorite song from Enchanted ("So Close") was up for an Oscar (and they danced! It was beautiful!), but lost to a truly amazing song from Once that I'd never heard before, but I'm totally in love with. Oscar Music FTW!

04) I reget not taking French. It would probably a heck of a lot easier than Spanish.

05) I want to be Tina Fey when I grow up. SERIOUSLY.
