1408

I'm watching 1408 with my sister and her friend.
It's kinda corny, yet startling at points. Okay, so it's kinda really corny. Like, laughing corny. But hey, we're having fun while laughing at my sister cuddling a toy penguin (long story).
... Wow... Now he's telling himself to shut up. Haha. :D
In the movie, the acting is corny (I think I said that already). I don't want to critisize though.
The movie about a writer who was actually quite good until his daughter passed away and he and wife separated from each other. He has crappy writing, basically and he's a ghost novel writer. He finds this hotel called The Dolphin Hotel (who names their hotel dolphin? hehe) in New York. Apparently, he learns, that there is a phsycotic room where all the guests inside committed suicide. He decides to (STUPIDLY) check out the room and stay for a night. A lot of creepy stuff happens, like ghosts jumping from windows and a creepy murdering ghost lady.
The end of the movie (I will not reveal the end. First, I have ten min. left of the movie. Second, I don't wanna ruin it for people) is not how the book ends, as I'm told by my sister's friend. He said that it ends entirely different and they add dialogue, scenes etc. He(He is my sister's friend) also said that there is no wife or kid in the book. *shrugs*. It's a Stephen King book. :)

NEWSIES!!

On Saturday I saw NEWSIES!!
EEEEEEKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!
It was so amazing!!! And my Uncle and my sisters were dying of laughter since I knew every single lyric to every single song- which I truthfully learned in the beginning of May!!
ANDREW KEENAN-BOLGER TALKED TO ME!!!
HE SAID "Really?" .... Uh... That sounds a lot more interesting in my head...?
Me: "I follow your blog!"
ANDREW: "Really?"
EEEEEEKKKKK!!!!!
AND I GOT HIS SIGNATURE!!!! AND JEREMY JORDAN'S SIGNATURE!!!! AND TOMMY BRACCO'S SIGNATRE!!!! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So anyway... When we left the theater, left the city and were in the car ride, my Uncle asked if I got the signatures (my sisters had sat on the opposite side of the theater, and we almost could not find them. He had gone to look for them).
I, like, *literally* jumped up and down. Ashley (my seventeen year old sis) called me insane and asked what was the big deal about Andrew Keenan-Bolger.................I died when she asked that.
My sister Heather, on the other hand, was screaming "IT TAKES A SMILE THAT SPREADS LIKE BUTTAH!! THE KIND THAT TOINS A LADY'S HEAD!!" the entire time we were in Lake George (I got back from Lake George at 4:00 today and I tried to rush to the laptop)... Then I would sing "IT TAKES AN ORPHAN WITH A STUTTER!!! WHO'S ALSO BLIND-A MUTE- AND DEAD!!! SUMMER STINKS AND"-
Ashley would cut me off saying something along the lines of: "LAUREN SHUT UP!!! THIS CD GOT OLD THE MILLIONTH TIME YOU SANG EVERY WORD TO IT!!"
.... :) I loved camping even though I got annoyed at the people who refused to let me sing to Newsies' Carrying The Banner, Santa Fe, Watch What Happens, Finale, Kings of New York, et cetera.
In sum, Newsies stopped my world... AND SO DID **ANDREW KEENAN-BOLGER**!
**His last name is legitametaly Keenan-Bolger, his two sisters, Maggie & Celia have the same name! How awesome of a last name is that... Holy shit, my last name is so pathetic! Johnson? Really? For an actor?
NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*shrugs* maybe I can sign Lauren Amber J.
