I watched Jupiter Ascending this evening. My responses are as follow:
1. OSCARS. OSCARS FOR EVERYONE.
2. LOLOLOLOLOL.
3. No but seriously that script felt like I was reading it straight from Mibba. I'm not even talking ff.net, poeple. Mibba.
4. The only review I read about the movie beforehand feels to me like the best and only review one needs to read about this movie. It is from The Mary Sue, and titled
Jupiter Ascending Is The Worst Movie Ever Go See It Immediately.
5. That said, overall, it was enjoyable. An extended facepalm, but enjoyable.
We went to an early showing, which unfortunately meant that the the mall was open for another hour after the movie was over, which translated into me being 350 shekels down by the end of the evening: one book, and three lipsticks (rather, two lipsticks and a primer. Apparently primers are a thing.) I don't really do make up - I don't know how it works, I don't know how to choose it, and I literally had to ask the lady at the store how to try on the testers because I have never done that before. But I bought a lipstick a couple months ago - strong and red, which I wore to a couple weddings and liked, but nothing I felt comfortable in any way wearing on a day to day basis. But at the mall tonight I stumbled upon a Mac store, and there we go. The two I got are very mild and natural looking and I think I'll like them; it remains to be seen how much I'll use them, but so far I'm satisfied with the purchase. (I got the standard yearly raise last week, so I'm just gonna pretend I spent money in honor of that.) The saleswoman almost convinced me to buy mascara too, but I felt a little too anime-eyes with them, so, as the saying here goes, "cow-cow", or - one step at a time.

Because I mentioned the weather yesterday, here are a few photos I took (on my phone) just to demonstrate:
the ocean starting to creep in on our car in the parking lotbefore and
after wiping my windshield yesterday morning
and a black car I saw parked in the street today, after yesterday's rain.
Finally, I am sure many of you have seen this as it's been making the internet/tumblr rounds, but good grief, this choreography and dance performance of "Take Me to Church" is utterly breathtaking:

As the ever clickable Buzzfeed article describes it, "so beautiful it hurts".
