Cottage Life with the Family

So, today isn't nearly as bad.  The rest of the family is here now.  My uncle's dog, I saw a good number of months ago when I could hold her with one hand.  Now, she's 5 months old and so much bigger, but ever so cute!  She used to look like this:


Not anymore!  I still love her so much though!  She's not that big, but much bigger than I remember.  If you start petting her, she'll just lie down and let you pet her.  I love her ears!  They're so floppy! ^_^  Sometimes she'll try to bite, but it doesn't hurt much.  When she grows a bit more, I'm sure it will though.  She's going to be a BIG dog.  I want to hug her all the time.  She's so soft and quiet. x3

Along with the puppy came my littlest cousins.  They're the cutest things.  Them + puppy = cute-plosion!  Yes, they own this dog.  They're all so much fun to play with. 

My other two cousins showed up and started fishing once they got unpacked.  Went out to take some photos of them and some other stuff.  Got an offer to fish with them and the moment the rod was handed to me, a fish got on the hook.  Unfortunately, it swallowed the hook and bled all over me as I tried to take the hook out (something that never happens because usually when we fish, my sister catches the fish and I just sit there with no luck).  So, my cousin stepped in and got the fish off for me.

We found out that one of our cousins, the same age as him can't watch people fish.  I asked her how she can eat meat and she told me that she can eat it, but she can't watch it get captured.  I don't know how this works considering any meat would have to be captured to be killed and eaten...She also tried to keep the fish that were caught alive by adding more water to the bin.  Not sure how this works.  It kind of died anyway...

Anyway, today isn't too bad.  Could be worse. 

More updates soon!

This year doesn't like me, does it?

Why do I always end up with crap roommates?  Does this ENTIRE school year hate me or something? 

I'm not even at school anymore, but I'm living with people I can't stand.  It sound harsh, especially since what we're doing is staying at a cottage for a week with all of Mom's side of the family...well, just her siblings and their kids.  But, we just got here, and her youngest sister is with us.  Her 2nd husband, I suppose, is such a power-tripping chauvanist.  I mean, we get into the cottage, settle a bit and all I hear is, "No kids here, don't do this, women doing this..." BLAH, FREAKING BLAH! 

The worst thing is that this is only the beginning.  We just got here today and we're here for a week.  Somebody save me? Dx

I'm already in a horrible mood after that.  I'm hiding out in my room refusing to go downstairs or anything because I don't want to deal with people.  A few more people are coming tomorrow and I don't know when everyone else is supposed to be here. 

Of all the things he could be though, does my uncle really have to be like that?  If he shoos me away telling me, "No kids here."  I'm going to give him something to think about.  I mean, I'm 19!  I'm legally an adult.  Yes, he's my elder.  Yes, I should be respecting him too.  But, although younger, we deserve to be treated with respect and dignity too.  I mean, dear God!  We are people too.  We are here to have a good time, and the first thing he does is piss me off. 

Yeah.  Thanks a lot.

Looks like I'm going to be hiding out in my room a lot this week.  I'll keep you guys updated on how this all goes.

Wish me luck, and I really hope you guys are having a better time wherever you are than I am.

"Total Recall" Review and Pokemon! What a Date.

Gooooooddddddd day, everyone.  Good evening to those on this side of the planet. 
Today, my boyfriend and I hung around and went to watch "Total Recall."  It wasn't nearly as good as it's all hyped up to be.  It's basically a typical guy film: explosions, girls, explosions.  So, plot, a bit flimsy, and writing?  Well, that could have been much better. 
I would write a review for it, but I don't feel quite as strongly towards it as my boyfriend does.  Probably because I just see it as a typical guy film that's just used as an excuse to see explosions.  So if you guys want a review, I shall redirect you to his review.

After the movie, the two of us grabbed dinner and went back to his place where I met his cousins, aunt, uncle, and great aunt (his great aunt is so awesome.  I love her! =D)  After that, we went upstairs to his room, where we--finally, after quite a while--put Pokemon Gold on my phone. 
You sickos, we didn't do that!  We just got Pokemon on my phone, that's all.  So, since I've gotten home, I've been super torn about writing this post and playing...I've been jumping between the two for about a half hour now.  It's so bad how distracted I am. o.o But, the thing is, this is really new to me despite having grown up in the original Pokemon era.  I've really missed a lot.  I mean, the most I did was watch some of the episodes, I never played the games.  So, here I am now with Pokemon Gold on my phone and loving it. =]

Anyway, back to my game.  I'm sorry about the lack of posts lately.  To make it up to you, here is a picture of a sleepy corgi pup.


Stay awesome, guys!

"Sebastian's Voodoo" and "Zero"

I recently thought back to a short film that I saw last year before I made this blog and thought that you guys might enjoy it as well as another that I have found thanks to the comments on the first video.

They are both short and so sweet with quite a message. 

This video is about a little voodoo doll that has to build up the courage to do what he must to save his friends.  A sad, but ever so touching, short film. 

Now, this short film depicts a very true to life story.  It is both touching and sad, but in the most beautiful of ways. 

Hope you enjoyed them!
