Movies at OCPAC and some news...

Although I don't think it's called OCPAC any longer... but anyway, the PAC shows movies on their wall on Monday nights and a few weeks ago, Mom and I went to go see Billy Elliot. Despite being underneath the speakers (IT WAS SOOOO LOUD AT TIMES!) and enduring the man who I'm sure once won the "Most Grating Voice" award reading off about 39583938 raffle tickets, the movie itself was incredible. I cry at least fifteen times at various moments in that movie. It kills me, every single time. I just can't help it.

And in other news, we had a power outage, RIGHT in the middle of Franklin and Bash. So I had to read Jacques d'Amboise's autobiography with an Orange Vanilla candle. It wasn't half bad.

And in some other other news, I have always been a Matt Damon fan. I really enjoy his movies, I appreciate how he stands up for quality causes, and he really doesn't seem at all like a typical Hollywood celebrity. He's big into family and he and his wife and children seem incredibly solid.

Also I like that he stands up for teachers like in these two clips. I agree with a lot of what he says. And I love how he calls out that woman on the second clip.

Then I saw this and he went up about fifteen notches in my book. This is hysterical and the line "the one where I sang 'Scotty Doesn't Know', what the hell was that?" just kills me/mades me laugh so hard.
