Get me out of here!



When did this start?
Why am I such a stupid, sensitive, teenage girl.
He's a normal teenage boy.
I should just stop thinking about it.
But I can't,
I can't get it out of my mind
because my heart still feels broken.

Forgive...
Forget...
I want to.

I want to believe it...I want to be able to trust...But I don't want to get hurt.
It's my own fault,
I'm trying to hurt myself, and I know it.

I just want to start over...
I don't want to be who I am anymore.
I don't even want this.

Why can't I be that girl in that photo? I want to escape.
I feel like it's coming to an end,
and we're both going to change,
and we'll part ways...
That this is going to be life changing.

I'm worried we won't have time for each other.
I'm worried we'll drink too much beer,
or do too much drugs.

WHY CAN'T I BE GODDAMN GOOD ENOUGH? STOP SAYING I'M BEAUTIFUL.
Stop lying to me,
please.

I am just a wallflower.

Alice In Wonderland

I saw Tim Burton's Alice In Wonderland in 3D this past Saturday and I must say that I enjoyed it quite a bit! It was so visually pleasing and terribly fun to watch. I love the way Tim Burton made this movie. I know, it's gotten some negative reviews...and I can see why. A lot of people are expecting the original story.
I really did like this film but must admit that some of the characters weren't as fantastical as I thought they would be. The Mad Hatter (Johnny Depp) for example, I thought he was going to be a little crazier....but I must admit that Mr. Depp did a WONDERFUL job as always. He did the character so well. As well as the Red Queen (Helena Bonham Carter), she was super fun. I absolutely loved her in this film.
I really loved the way Burton set this film up, the storyline, the characters, the setting...who doesn't adore the setting? You can definitely tell who this film was directed by :PMia Wasikowska also did a pretty good job as Alice, I quite liked her :)
And finally...the attire. I AM IN LOVE WITH THE ATTIRE OF THIS FILM. So beautiful and wonderfully done, especially when she shrinks and grows. And the Mad Hatter's too. Maybe I just love Victorian clothing.

So, I do own both the original Alice In Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass...and probably should have read it before I saw the film but I didn't have a chance to. Hopefully I'll get around to that after I finish reading all the Sherlock Holmes short stories.

I apologize that this isn't a well done review.

Love,
