I couldn't bring myself to post yesterday, I was still bearing a grudge to LJ for deleting my post. But I am feeling much less murderous towards them (mainly because I finished another one of my 1500 word essays that I needed to do). So let's talk a little more abou the Oscars shall we??
I am still so thrilled about the Slumdog Millionaire massive win. It really made staying up all night long completely worth it. I loved seeing the little kids there looking so cute and so happy.
I also found this website with backstage photos. Here are some of the cast celebrating thier win (I wish I could hold an Oscar):
Seriously, I can't imagine the happiness that they were feeling.
And how great is it that before they all go home they get to spend a little time with Micky Mouse? I really hope thier lives are so perfect now. If not perfect, just so much better than what they have been.
And I absolutely love this picture. Brangelina completely unawre that they were having thier picture taken, just happy to be with each other. It's really lovely. And from what Jennifer A was wearing and what Angie was wearing, I have to say I liked that AJ was wearing more then JA. Her dress was lovely but I didn't like the hair, we all know what happened to Cameron Diaz's career when she started having the bleached blonde hair EVERYWHERE.
I did hear that their snubbing of all press (including the horribly white-teethed Ryan from E! News) has now meant that they are dubbed Snobalina or something like that. Don't really care because I am still in complete awe over her jewellery which, as emeralds go, made my eyes pop out of my head and wish I was a filthy rich actress. (Don't really have to be any good, just rich so I can deck myself in emeralds too).
And did anyone hear about Beyonce's nipple gate? I am not joking. Apparently in her big showbiz scene with Hugh Jackman her dress had a little malfunction and slipped. If anyone wants to see pictures you can find them here
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/02/24/beyonces-oscar-nipple-sli_n_169494.html I am not going to post pictures here because frankly it is nothing. Some very, very lonely and sad person who had far too much time on their perverted hands zoomed up on her chest because they had nothing better to do and had their year made when they spotted a hint of a nipple.
So sad. Truly so sad.
But I loved Hugh Jackman, he was funny. 'I am Hugh Jackman and I have waited so long! And no recession can stop my confession or silence my song! These are the Oscars, and this is my creed! I am a slumdog, I am a wrestler, I'll rent The Reader, I'm Wolverine!' He has to be back again next year and not leave for so long inbetween awards. Who knew that he could sing and dance with so much energy? Watching him really woke me up at 3 in the morning.
But I think that is enough about the Oscars, until next year anyway. The whole award season is over. But I promise you all that next year I will be at the BAFTAs getting as many autographs as I can, come wind or rain or hail or fog (considering the time of the year almost all of those are likely to happen at the same time). But I am so annoyed that I missed them this year, I would have LOVED to get the whole of the Slumdog Millionaire cast and crew's autographs. I am so smitten with them all.
My University timing really sucks.
But today like I said, I did finish another essay and I started reading Slumdog Millionaire, a book I actually haven't read yet. Finishing the first gave me a warm glow inside and the seond isn't making me feel all that bad either. Nothing else really happened to me today. I did watch a brand new ep of NCIS and I am still asking when the thing with Ziva and Tony will start. I know the two of them are meant to be and all but I can't wait forever.
Oh yeah, good news!! In 17 days I will be home again!!!!!!! that thought has put a huge smile on my face. This term has been completely shitty and I really want to be in a place where I don't feel like an alien.
And I found out today that the Pussycat Dolls have recorded an English version of Jai Ho with Nicole and A. R. Rahman writing the lyrics.

I am listening to it right now and I am undecided. I don't know if I like it or not. It is very different from the original and that isn't the video of the song, just clips from the movie. Maybe it will grow on me. What do you guys think??
Anyway this entry is long enough now, time for me to go and do some twittering, something I think I am starting to get bored of (I really do have a short attention span).
All of you have great evening!!
