Quote of the Day is from Schindler's List:

Wilhelm Kunde: [Goeth is being driven round the Ghetto in an open top car] This street divides the ghetto just about in half. On the right, ghetto A, civil employees, industrial workers and so on. On the left, ghetto B, surplus labor, the elderly and infirm, mostly, which is where you will want to start. Any questions? 
Amon Goeth: Ja. Why is the top down? I'm f*cking freezing. 

I find you socially acceptable, Beth Cooper.

Watching the movie "I love you, Beth Cooper" made me so nostalgic. I never thought I would start missing school so early in the summer! But that film definitely reminded me of North Hills. Other than the fact that the graduating class has more than 80 people in it, everything just screams 'North Hills'. The whole "head-cheerleader-has-a-school-key" thing? It wouldn't surprise me at all if it turned out that Mary Ellen had a key to our school. I mean, I'm getting one as yearbook editor, so why wouldn't she?

And then there are the huge graduation parties at the rich kid's house. DEFFO North Hills. (Btdubs, I say we have ours at Keyana's house. ;) ) The protective older boyfriends, no comment whatsoever. Nerdy best friends who do nothing but quote old, or classic, movies all day. Well, maybe that's just me, but, believe me, when you're a theatre kid (and so are your friends), it happens! Though I would find it to be utterly hilarious, I would not at all be surprised if a few of my classmates had ever tried cow tipping, failed at it, and fallen into cow poo. I could even tell you who it would happen to!

I find you socially acceptable, Beth Cooper.

You are completely normal. I love that someone finally made a movie about real high school. It's not always separated into a caste system that can never be broken. There are nerds that cannot give appropriate speeches to save their lives and 'popular' kids who don't really have it all. I love this movie because it's real.

I also love it because that guy that played Cameron on "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" is in it. 

Later Days

Peace
