the devil wears prada - lauren weisberger

my brother makes fun of me about how that movie is a chick movie. i love it though _unsure.gif it makes me laugh a ton for some reason. so i'm going to read the book.

yeah i've heard the book is way better so i'm looking forward to that since i liked the movie so much. a friend and i are always saying how we feel like watching the movie. it's just so f*cking funny to me. i felt this same way with legally blonde, i watched it like every other day for weeks when i had mono and would laugh hysterically. i guess that could have been cause i had a fever and was delirious though.

this will be a nice break from all the serious non fiction books i'm always reading.

what are some things that you like that uncharacteristic or unexpected?


like for instance when people see me, a big black dude, i doubt that they are like oh yeah i bet that guy likes the devil wears prada, legally blonde, and the hills. what are some things about you like that are unexpected? or are you just one of those annoyingly boring people who only like shit that you're "supposed" to like? be honest mellow.gif

I f*cking love Legally Blonde. I think I could recite all the lines to the movie.

The book version of the Devil Wears Prada is NOT better, imo. When you finish reading the book you just want to slap Andy because she's such a stupid bitch. But in the movie I found myself really liking her and rooting for her. Plus it was a feel-good movie. PLUS Meryl Streep is just amazing as Miranda.

On the bright side, The Devil Wears Prada is probably considered to be a less generic chick lit novel (probably with the stupid ending), so it won't be too bad to get into it.

On What Not to Wear:
They donate the old clothing so they're not being completely wasteful. Also, the full amount of clothing they buy is never fully shown since it would just be too much stuff to show you. And you know that they can get a lot of clothing for $5000 because they shop at places like H&M too. Even if everything was $100, you could still get 50 items of clothing, which sounds like nothing, but they stress buying a few items of good quality that will go with each other, create endless outfits and last quite a while. Put this into perspective: you're dealing with people who own clothing that they've owned since they were 13. Surely they'll hold on to this new clothing for even longer.

I LOVE Clinton!!!!! If I was a dude I would dress like him.

Wow essay.

I surprised myself when I discovered that I really, really like Fleet Foxes.
